Characterization of colon cancer cells: a functional approach characterizing CD133 as a potential stem cell marker

ABSTRACT: Background: Isolation and characterization of tumourigenic colon cancer initiating cells may help to develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Methods: We characterized a panel of fourteen human colon carcinoma cell lines and their corresponding xenografts for the surface expression of different potential stem cell markers: CD133, CD24, CD44, CDCP1 and CXCR4. In five cell lines and nine xenografts mRNA expression of the investigated markers was determined. Tumour growth behaviour of CD133+, CD133- and unsorted SW620 cells was evaluated in vivo. Results: All surface markers showed distinct expression patterns in the examined tumours. Analyses of the corresponding xenografts revealed a significant reduction of cell numbers expressing the investigated markers. CD44 and CXCR4 mRNA expression correlated within the cell line panel and CD44 and CDCP1 within the xenograft panel, respectively. Small subpopulations of double and triple positive cells could be described. SW620 showed significantly higher take rates and shorter doubling times in vivo when sorted for CD133 positivity. Conclusion: Our data support the hypothesis of a small subset of cells with stem cell-like properties characterized by a distinct surface marker profile. In vivo growth kinetics give strong relevance for an important role of CD133 within the mentioned surface marker profile. Key words: colon cancer, tumour stem cell, CD133

Key words: colon cancer, tumour stem cell, CD133 Affymetrix® HG-U133 Plus 2.0 mRNA expression arrays were used to determine the expression. CEL result files were pre-processed using the gc-RMA (Zhijin Wu and Rafael A, 2004) algorithm. This microarray analysis was performed for a distinct colon cancer panel including 9 of the 11 xenografts evaluated for stem cell marker expression and 5 of the above mentioned cell lines.

CD133+CD24lo defines a 5-Fluorouracil-resistant colon cancer stem cell-like phenotype

Project description:Metastatic human colon carcinoma cell lines LS411N and SW620 were cultured in the presence of increased concentration of 5-FU. The selected stable cell lines (LS411N-5FU-R and SW620-5FU-R) are CD133+ that are resistant to 5-FU. However, FACS-sorted CD133+ cells from LS411N and SW620 are not resistant to 5-FU, suggesting that only a subset of CD133+ cells are 5-FU-resistant colon cancer stem cells. A global gene expression profiling was performed to identify differentiated expressed genes between LS411N-CD133+ cells and LS411N-5FU-R, and between SW620-CD133+ and SW620-5FU-R cells. These differentially expressed genes are potentially responsible for the colon cancer stem cell phenotypes and chemoresistance.

Comparison of gene expression between CD133+ and CD133- SW620 human colon cancer cells

Project description:CD133 has been widely used for identification and isolation of cancer stem cells in tumors although its role as a marker for cancer stem cell is still controversial . We isolated the CD133+ and CD133- cells from SW620 human colon cancer cell line and compared their biological characteristics, such as tumorigenicity,drug sensitivity, etc. Our study revealed that CD133+ SW620 cells were more tumorigenic and resistant to anti-cancer drugs. Correspondingly, they displayed different gene expression profile. However, it was observed that CD133- cells and CD133+ cells could mutually convert, indicating that CD133 expression was under dynamic and reversible regulations which might impose significant infulence on cells behaviors. Thus, our data challenge the role of CD133 as a marker for cancer stem cell. There are two populations with distinct expression of CD133 in SW620 human colon cancer cell line. Microarray assays were employed to investigate the differentially expressed genes between the two populations, which may possess different tumorigenetic potential and sensitivity to anti-cancer drugs. CD133+ and CD133- cells were isolated from human colon cancer SW620 cell line by magnetic cell sorting system. The clones from sorted CD133+ or CD133- populations were established. Clone cells were expanded and were further purified by using CD133 cell isolation kit before microarray assays.

Gene expression profiles of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines differently co-expressing cancer stem cell markers

Project description:Pancreatic cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been described as CD24+/CD44+/EpCAM+ or CD133+ cells. However, no study has determined the co-expression of all of these markers in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Similarly to other combinations of CSC markers, CD24+/ CD44+/EpCAM+/CD133+ phenotype might more accurately identify true pancreatic CSCs. Therefore, we performed a detailed co-expression analysis of CD24, CD44, EpCAM, and CD133 in 3 cell lines derived from primary pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). Gene expression profiling was applied in order to further investigate the observed differences in proportion of cells that co-expressed CSC markers among the cell lines.

Gene expression profiles of different subpopulations of hepatocellular carcinoma

Project description:To demonstrate CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- subpopulations of hepatocellular carcinoma as distinct subgroups, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to reveal the gene profiles of different subgroups and identify genes responsible for the enhanced metastatic potentials of CD133+CD44+ tumor cells. CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- tumor cells were isolated from three human metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma specimens. A 76-gene consensus signature was identified that distinguished between CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- subgroups. CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- subgroups from different patients were well clustered as two distinct classes according to this signature, and many genes in this signature were reported involved in tumor metastasis. Expression of four genes (CCL4, DKK3, CCR5 and MMP12) from this signature was confirmed in another three metastatic HCC specimens by real-time PCR.

Hypoxia-induced stem-like cancer cells resistance to VEGFR inhibition

Project description:Developing strategies to overcome the frequent resistance to VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors in patients is a major challenge in antiangiogenic therapy for cancer. Targeting the VEGF pathway in vivo induces hypoxia and therefore enables to study drug-induced hypoxia in tumors. Hypoxia also occurs in the spontaneous evolution of cancers, particularly around areas of necrosis. Using cell markers such as CD133, CXCR4, or ALDH1, we identified stem-like cells in peri-necrotic areas in human biopsies and xenografts models of renal cancers. These stem-like cells were able in vitro to self-renew, form carcinoma spheres and had a tumorigenic potency, thus showing characteristics of stem-like cancer cells. In xenografted human renal cell carcinoma, we further demonstrated a strong link between necrosis, either spontaneous or treatment-induced, and the presence of CD133/CXCR4 double positive stem-like cells. Hypoxia increased their tumorigenic potency, induced overexpression of metallothionein2A, which we here identified as critical regulator of resistance to VEGFR-inhibition.

Expression data from HCT116 cells

Project description:Advanced colon cancer is characterized by drug resistance and a poor prognosis. In these patients tumor-propagating cells appear to be largely resistant against various targeted drugs including ErbB-inhibitors. The cell surface antigen prominin-1 (CD133) has recently been identified as a potential marker of colon cancer stem cells. The purpose of this study was to define mRNA expression patterns in CD133+ and CD133- HCT116 cells.
