Expression data from fibroblasts treated with TGF-Beta


ABSTRACT: The survival of isolated metastatic cells and expansion into macroscopic tumour has been recognized as a limiting step for metastasis formation in several cancer types yet the determinants of this process remain largely uncharacterized. In colorectal cancer (CRC), we identify a transcriptional programme in tumour-associated stromal cells, which is intimately linked to a high risk of developing recurrent disease after therapy. A large proportion of CRCs display mutational inactivation of the TGF-beta pathway but paradoxically they are characterized by high TGF-beta production. In these tumours, TGF-beta instructs a transcriptional programme in stromal cells, which confers a high risk of developing metastatic disease. We quantified the association of TGF-beta-activated fibroblasts with disease progression. To this end, we used as surrogates the gene expression programme upregulated by addition of TGF-beta to normal colon mucosa-derived fibroblasts (CCD-Co-18) in culture.
