PRMT5 promotes chemoresistance of breast cancer stem cells by regulating DNA repair gene splicing facilitating an enhanced DNA damage response

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) are a rare cell population that are responsible for tumour initiation, metastasis, chemoresistance and tumour relapse. Despite this, the mechanism by which BCSCs withstand genotoxic stress is largely unknown. Here, we uncover a pivotal role for the arginine methyltransferase PRMT5 in mediating BCSC chemoresistance by modulation of DNA repair efficiency. Notably, PRMT5 inhibitors synergise with cisplatin and radiotherapy, inducing defective DNA repair thereby potentiating BCSC apoptosis. Mechanistically, we demonstrate the crucial function of PRMT5 in ensuring splicing fidelity of DNA damage response genes, particularly those integral to the Fanconi Anaemia and homologous recombination pathways. A comparison of BCSCs and their bulk cell progeny identified shared (ATM, DDX11, EXO1, FAN1, SLX4) and unique (ATR, RAD17, RAD51D, RUVBL1) PRMT5-dependent alternative splicing events. Surprisingly, these events rarely repressed gene expression, suggesting that PRMT5 inhibition predominantly results in nuclear detention of intron-containing transcripts and the production of non-canonical isoforms with compromised protein function. This study thus reveals promising strategies to improve the therapeutic efficacy of PRMT5 inhibitors that promote effective BCSC eradication.

miR-600 acts as a bimodal switcher that regulates breast cancer stem cell fate through WNT signaling

Project description:Breast cancer stem cells (bCSCs) have been implicated in tumor progression and therapeutic resistance; however, the molecular mechanisms that define bCSC-state are unclear. We have performed concurrent human miRNome-wide gain- and loss-of-function screens to identify switcher miRNAs controling the choice between bCSC self-renewal and differentiation. These analysis enlightened miR-600 whose silencing resulted in bCSC expansion. Mechanistically, miR-600 targets the stearoyl desaturase 1 (SCD1), an enzyme required to produce active, lipid-modified WNT proteins. To explore further miR-600 interactions and WNT-pathway, SUM159 cell line constructions were made and FACS-sorted to select the bCSCs. We compared gene expression profiles from native, miR-600 'over-expressed', miR-600'knock-down' and siSCD1 bCSCs. We showed that in the absence of miR-600, WNT signaling is maintained active and promotes self-renewal, whereas overexpression of miR-600 inhibits the production of active WNT proteins and promotes bCSC differentiation. These findings highlight a miR-600-centered signaling network that governs bCSC-fate decision and influences tumor progression.

Breast cancer stem cell-derived tumors escape from γδ T cell immunosurveillance in vivo by modulating γδ T cell ligands

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) lacks targeted therapy options. TNBC is enriched in breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs), which play a key role in metastasis, chemoresistance, relapse and mortality. γδ T cells hold great potential in immunotherapy against cancer, and might be an alternative to target TNBC. γδ T cells are commonly observed to infiltrate solid tumors and have an extensive repertoire of tumor sensing, recognizing stress-induced molecules and phosphoantigens (pAgs) on transformed cells. We show that patient derived triple negative BCSCs are efficiently recognized and killed by ex vivo expanded γδ T cells from healthy donors. Orthotopically xenografted BCSCs, however, were refractory to γδ T cell immunotherapy. Mechanistically, we unraveled concerted differentiation and immune escape: xenografted BCSCs lost stemness, expression of γδ T cell ligands, adhesion molecules and pAgs, thereby evading immune recognition by γδ T cells. Indeed, neither pro-migratory engineered γδ T cells, nor anti-PD 1 checkpoint blockade significantly prolonged overall survival of tumor-bearing mice. BCSC immune escape was independent of the immune pressure exerted by the γδ T cells, and could be pharmacologically reverted by Zoledronate or IFN-α treatment. These results pave the way for novel combinatorial immunotherapies for TNBC.

Transcriptomic but not genomic variability confers phenotype of breast cancer stem cells

Project description:Background: Breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) are considered responsible for cancer relapse and drug-resistance. Understanding the identity of BCSCs may open new avenues in breast cancer therapy. Although several discoveries have been made on BCSCs characterization, the factors critical to BCSCs is largely unclear. This study was aimed to determine whether genomic mutation contributes to the acquisition of cancer stem-like phenotype, and to investigate the genetic and transcriptional features of BCSCs. Methods: We detected the potential mutation hotspot regions by using whole genome sequencing on parental cancer cells and derived serial-generation spheroids in increasing order of BCSC frequency, and then performed target deep DNA sequencing in the level of bulk-cell and single-cell. To identify the transcriptional program associated with BCSCs, bulk-cell and single-cell RNA sequencing were performed. Results: By analyzing whole genome sequencing of bulk cells, potential BCSCs associated mutation hotspot regions were detected. Validation by target deep sequencing, in both bulk-cell and single-cell levels, revealed no genetic changes specifically associated with BCSC phenotype. Moreover, single-cell RNA sequencing showed that cancer cells display profound transcriptional variability at the single-cell level that predicts BCSC features. Notably, this transcriptomic variability is enriched in transcription of a number of genes, revealed as BCSC markers. Individuals with breast cancer in a high-risk recurrence group exhibited higher expression of these transcriptomic variabilities, highlighting their clinical significance. Conclusions: Transcriptional variability, not genetic mutations, distinguish BCSCs from non-BCSCs. The identified BCSCs markers can become novel targets for BCSCs.

LINC00115 promotes chemoresistant breast cancer stem-like cell stemness and metastasis through SETDB1/PLK3/HIF1α signaling [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Accumulated data demonstrate that cancer stem-like cell is a key barrier for therapeutic resistance and metastasis in various cancers, including breast cancer, yet the underlying mechanisms are still elusive. Through a genome-wide lncRNA expression profiling, we identified that LINC00115 is robustly upregulated in chemoresistant breast cancer stem-like cells (BCSCs). LINC00115 functions as a scaffold lncRNA to link SETDB1 and PLK3, leading to enhanced SETDB1 methylation of PLK3 at both K106 and K200 in drug-resistant BCSC. PLK3 methylation decreases PLK3 phosphorylation of HIF1α and thereby increases HIF1α stability. HIF1α, in turn, upregulates ALKBH5 to reduce m6A modification of LINC00115, resulting in attenuated degradation of YTHDF2-dependent m6A-modified RNA and enhanced LINC00115 stability. Thus, this positive feedback loop provokes BCSC phenotypes and enhances chemoresistance and metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer. Our findings uncover LINC00115 as a critical regulator of BCSC and highlight potential therapeutic strategies for therapeutic resistance and metastasis in breast cancer.

Expression data of ALDH+ breast cancer cells

Project description:It has been suggested that breast cancers are driven and maintained by a cellular subpopulation with stem cell properties. These breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) mediate metastasis and by virtue of their resistance to radiation and chemotherapy, contribute to relapse. Although several BCSC markers have been described, it is unclear whether these markers identify the same or independent BCSC populations. Based on established breast cancer cell lines, as well as primary tumor samples and xenografts, we show that BCSCs exist in distinct mesenchymal-like (epithelial-mesenchymal transition, EMT) and epithelial-like (mesenchymal-epithelial transition, MET) states characterized by expression of distinct markers, proliferative capacity and invasive characteristics. The gene expression profiles of mesenchymal-like and epithelial-like BCSCs are remarkably similar across the different molecular subtypes of breast cancer and resemble those of distinct basal and luminal stem cells found in the normal breast. We propose that the plasticity of BCSCs allowing them to transition between EMT- and MET-like states endows these cells with the capacity for tissue invasion, dissemination and growth at metastatic sites. Breast cancer cells from patient were sorted using flow cytometry to select for cells that were ALDH+. Gene expression profiles of these cells were compared with profiles of ALDH- cells.

The small molecule ID8 increases Aldefluor+ breast cancer stem cells

Project description:The cancer stem cell (CSC) hypothesis postulates that tumors are maintained by a self-renewing CSC population that is also capable of differentiating into non-self renewing cell populations that constitute the bulk of the tumor. Targeting breast CSC (BCSC) self-renewal represents an avenue for developing therapeutics; however, the molecular mechanisms that govern self-renewal of BCSCs are poorly understood. Our data show the small molecule ID8 decreases overall cell growth, but increases the self-renewal of Aldefluor+ BCSCs and increases functional metastatic BCSCs in a xenograft model. Microarray analysis showed that ID8 is a pleotropic molecule by increasing numerous pathways, including cytokines and chemokines. However, inhibition of those pathways does not abrogate the ID8-induced increase in Aldefluor+ BCSCs. Rather, ID8 is able to activate MAPK pathway through upregulation of the scaffold protein LAMTOR3 and inhibition of MEK prevented the increase in Aldefluor+ BCSCs. By using ID8 as a molecular tool, we identified a new function of the MAPK pathway in regulating BCSC growth and self-renewal.
