Transcriptional co-factor Transducin beta-like (TBL) 1 acts as a checkpoint in pancreatic cancer malignancy

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer fatalities in Western societies, characterized by high metastatic potential and resistance to chemotherapy. Critical molecular mechanisms of these phenotypical features still remain unknown, thus hampering the development of effective prognostic and therapeutic measures in PDAC. Here we show that transcriptional co-factor Transducin beta-like (TBL) 1 was over-expressed in both human and murine PDAC. Inactivation of TBL1 in human and mouse pancreatic cancer cells reduced cellular proliferation and enhanced chemosensitivity, correlating with diminished glucose uptake, glycolytic flux, and PI3kinase signaling. TBL1 deficiency both prevented and reversed pancreatic tumor growth in mice, triggering transcriptional PI3kinase inhibition also in vivo. As TBL1 mRNA levels were also found to correlate with overall and disease-free survival in a cohort of human PDAC patients and to predict therapy responsiveness in these subjects, TBL1 expression may serve both as a novel prognostic marker and molecular target in the treatment of human PDAC.

Capan-1 cells were transfected with control-siRNA (#1027292, Qiagen) or siRNA against human TBL1 (SI04329514, Qiagen) and RNA was isolated 24h later

Genome Sequencing of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Project description:<p>Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) is the 11th most common cancer in the USA but the 4th in fatalities. The onset and progression of cancer is driven by extensive rearrangement and mutation of the genome. We combined our capability to capture and enrich exome DNA with the next generation sequencing capacity to allow us to detect and characterize the somatic mutation profile of 24 patients with PDAC. Patient samples were collected by the Elkins Pancreatic Center in the Baylor College of Medicine Department of Surgery. Sequencing of the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is one of the NHGRI Center Initiated Projects in progress in the Human Genome Sequencing Center at Baylor College of Medicine. These data are also contributed to an ICGC study and will be published with the ICGC collaborators.</p>

Exocrine and connective tissue signatures in early pancreatic adenocarcinoma foci and their surrounding tissue

Project description:This project is reporting on microdissection proteomics of human operable, non-neoadjuvant treated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) with deep coverage of histologically neoplastic and adjacent healthier exocrine glands as well as stromal regions surrounding both. Through proteomic analysis, the parenchymal sample types differed significantly, with the malignant regions characterized by a broad downregulation of digestive enzymes. Instead, the stromal areas were alike, dominated by extracellular matrix proteins and lower expression of most metabolic pathways compared to the exocrine areas. Cholesterol synthesizing enzymes were more abundant in the tumor than stroma, as confirmed by an independent PDAC dataset and immunohistochemistry of PDAC microarrays. However, this was not accompanied by intratumor lipid deposition. Pathways most prognostic for survival were unexpectedly enriched in the histologically healthier exocrine glands, with a specific prognostic marker. Systematic analysis of pancreatic cancer transcriptomes from The Cancer Genome Atlas revealed that increased transcriptional complexity confers poor prognosis in PDAC.

Phenotype screens of murine pancreatic cancer identify a Tgfa-Ccl2-paxillin axis driving human-like neural invasion

Project description:Solid cancers like pancreatic cancer (PDAC) frequently exploit nerves for rapid dissemination. This neural invasion (NI) is an independent prognostic factor in PDAC, but insufficiently modelled in genetically-engineered mouse models (GEMM) of PDAC.Here, we systematically screened for human-like NI in Europe’s largest repository of GEMM of PDAC comprising 295 different genotypes. This phenotype screen uncovered two GEMM of PDAC with human-like NI, which are both characterized by pancreas-specific overexpression of transforming-growth-factor-alpha (TGFa) and conditional depletion of p53. Mechanistically, cancer-cell-derived TGFa upregulated CCL2 secretion from sensory neurons, which induced hyperphosphorylation of the cytoskeletal protein paxillin via CCR4 on cancer cells. This activated the cancer migration machinery and filopodia formation toward neurons. Disrupting CCR4 or paxillin activity limited NI, and dampened tumor size and tumor innervation. In human PDAC, phospho-paxillin and TGFa-expression constituted strong prognostic factors. Therefore, TGFa-CCL2-CCR4-p-paxillin axis is a clinically actionable target for constraining NI and tumor progression in PDAC.

TMPRSS4 promotes cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by activating ERK1/2 signaling pathway

Project description:Transmembrane protease serine 4 (TMPRSS4) is upregulated in various kinds of human cancers, including pancreatic cancer. However, its biological function in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. In the current study, real-time qPCR, immunohistochemical staining, Western blotting, and database (Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression) analysis revealed remarkable overexpression of TMPRSS4 in PDAC tissue as compared to non-tumor tissue. The TMPRSS4 overexpression was associated with poor prognosis of PDAC patients. Moreover, multivariate analysis revealed that TMPRSS4 serves as an independent risk factor in PDAC. We performed gain-and loss-of-function analysis and found that TMPRSS4 promotes cellular proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of PDAC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we showed that TMPRSS4 might promote cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis through activating ERK1/2 signaling pathway in pancreatic cancer cells. These findings were validated by using ERK1/2 phosphorylation inhibitor SCH772984 both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, this study suggests that TMPRSS4 is a proto-oncogene, which promotes initiation and progression of PDAC by controlling cell proliferation and apoptosis. Our findings indicate that TMPRSS4 could be a promising prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Serum levels of iCAF-derived Osteoglycin predict favorable outcome in pancreatic cancer

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by abundant stroma, the main cellular constituents of which are cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Heterogeneity in the PDAC CAF population was recently delineated demonstrating that both tumor-promoting and -suppressive activities co-exist in the stroma. Here, we aimed to identify biomarkers for the CAF population that contribute to a favorable outcome. Osteoglycin (OGN) was identified as a candidate serum prognostic marker. Single-cell analysis in KPC mice indicated that OGN is derived from a subgroup of inflammatory CAFs. OGN-expressing fibroblasts are distinct from resident healthy pancreatic stellate cells and arise during pancreatitis. Serum OGN levels were prognostic for favorable overall survival in two independent PDAC cohorts.

The side population of human pancreatic cancer expresses cancer stem cell-associated genes

Project description:Purpose: To explore the side population (SP) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) for its gene expression profile and its association to cancer stem cells (CSC) and to evaluate the value of genes from its gene signature on patient survival. Experimental design: Side and main population (MP) cells were isolated from 11 human PDAC resection specimens using fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) after Hoechst incubation. Total RNA was extracted for whole-genome analysis. A gene signature for the purified SP (pSP; depleted from immune/endothelial CD45+/CD31+ cells) was developed and validated with the nCounter system on expression data of 78 primary PDAC using Cox regression analyses for disease-free and overall survival. Results: An SP was identified in all PDAC samples. Whole-genome expression profiling of pSP revealed upregulation of genes related to therapy-resistance and of CSC-associated genes and pathways. A pSP signature of 32 up- or downregulated genes was capable of discriminating SP from MP in an independent set of 10 PDAC samples, and some contributing genes had a prognostic value in a separate series of 78 patients who underwent surgery for PDAC. Conclusion: Pancreatic cancer contains an SP with chemo-resistant and CSC-associated molecular characteristics. Genes from a newly defined pSP gene signature are related to survival of patients who undergo surgical resection for pancreatic cancer, and might therefore represent potential therapeutic targets. Microarray analysis was performed on SP and MP samples from 11 different human PDAC samples.

Microarray analyses of mRNA in PCDH1 knockdown cells

Project description:Uncontrolled growth, distant metastasis and chemoresistance are critical characteristics of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We identified PCDH1 acting as a novel prognostic marker for PDAC. PCDH1 enhanced p65 nuclear localization by interacting with KPNB1, therefore activates NF-κB signaling pathway and function during the progression of PDAC.

Serum Protein Biomarkers for Early Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest cancers. Late presentation of disease at the time of diagnosis is one of the major reasons for dismal prognostic outcomes for PDAC patients. Currently, there is a lack of clinical biomarkers which can be used to diagnose PDAC patients at an early resectable stage. This study performed proteomic mass spectrometry to identify novel blood-based biomarkers for early diagnosis of PDAC.
