Glioblastoma multiforme cancer stem cells from different patients exhibit consistent gene expression and mechanical phenotypes across distinct states in culture

ABSTRACT: Cancer stem cells are responsible for the regenerative properties of tumors, manifested as recurrence and metastasis. They can adopt different states, some of which may not be sensitive to current therapies. Modeling distinct states in culture will contribute towards efficient drug discovery. We previously demonstrated that putative cancer stem cells from multiple glioblastoma patients can be efficiently maintained under different signal transduction states by means of different culture conditions; each state is marked by different levels of STAT3 phosphorylation and Hes3 expression. Here we perform global gene expression and mechanical analyses on three primary cell lines to better characterize each state and to address their broad relevance. We report consistent gene expression profiles and mechanical phenotypes among the three lines across different states. Our data argues for the use of specific culture conditions to model distinct states, all of which may be useful in therapeutic design.

Glioblastoma multiforme cancer stem cells from different patients exhibit consistent gene expression changes following Hes3 RNA interference

Project description:Cancer cells are plastic, switching between signaling pathways to regulate growth under different conditions. In the tumor microenvironment this likely helps them evade therapies that target specific pathways. We must identify all possible signaling states and utilize them in drug screening programs to. One such state is characterized by expression of the transcription factor Hes3 and sensitivity to Hes3 knockdown and can be modeled in vitro by the use of defined culture conditions. Here we modeled this state in vitro, characterized it, and used it to identify drugs that target it. We cultured three primary human brain cancer cell lines, each from a different patient, under three different culture conditions (low, medium, and high Hes3 expression) and characterized gene regulation (RNA sequencing) and mechanical phenotype (real-time deformability assay). We also assessed gene expression regulation following Hes3 knockdown in conditions that maintain high Hes3 expression. We then employed a commonly used human brain tumor cell line to screen 1,600 FDA-approved compounds that specifically target the Hes3-high state in two different culture conditions (high and low Hes3). Cells from multiple patients behave similarly when placed under distinct culture conditions, in the assays described. We identified 37 FDA-approved compounds that specifically kill cancer cells in conditions characterized by high but not those characterized by low Hes3 expression. Our work reveals novel, potentially core signaling states in cancer, a strategy to identify treatments against them, and a set of putative drugs for potential repurposing.

Mechanical confinement governs phenotypic plasticity in melanoma [HMGB2OE_RNAseq]

Project description:Phenotype switching is a form of cellular plasticity in which cancer cells reversibly move between two opposite extremes - proliferative versus invasive states. While it has long been hypothesised that such switching is triggered by external cues, the identity of these cues has remained elusive. Here, we demonstrate that mechanical confinement mediates phenotype switching through chromatin remodelling. Using a zebrafish model of melanoma coupled with human samples, we profiled tumour cells at the interface between the tumour and surrounding microenvironment. Morphological analysis of these rare cells showed flattened, elliptical nuclei suggestive of mechanical confinement by nearby adjacent tissue. Spatial and single-cell transcriptomics demonstrated that the interface cells adopted a gene program of neuronal invasion, including acquisition of an acetylated tubulin cage that protects the nucleus during migration. We identified the DNA-bending protein HMGB2 as a confinement-induced mediator of the neuronal state. HMGB2 is upregulated in confined cells, and quantitative modelling revealed that confinement prolongs contact time between HMGB2 and chromatin, leading to changes in chromatin configuration that favour the neuronal phenotype. Genetic disruption of HMGB2 showed that it regulates the trade-off between proliferative and invasive states, in which confined HMGB2high tumour cells are less proliferative but more drug resistant. Our results implicate the mechanical microenvironment as a mechanism for phenotype switching in melanoma.

Gene expression data from Min6 cells grown in serum containing and serum free condtions following Hes3 knock down

Project description:The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor hairy and enhancer of split (Hes3) is a member of the Hes/Hey gene family that regulates developmental processes in progenitor cells from various tissues. We demonstrated the Hes3 expression in mouse pancreatic tissue, suggesting it may have a role in modulating beta-cell function. We employed a transfection approach to address specific functions of Hes3. Hes3 RNA interference opposed the growth of the mouse insulinoma cell line Min6. Western blotting and PCR approaches specifically showed that Hes3 RNA interference opposes the expression of Pdx1 and insulin. Likewise, Hes3 knock down reduced evoked insulin release from Min6 cells. We used microarray analysis to examine differences in gene expression when Hes3 expression was knocked down in cells grown under different culture condtions.

Whole worm transcriptomics after optogenetically induced mechanical muscle stress (OptIMMuS)

Project description:Mechanical stress during muscle contraction is a constant threat to proteome integrity. Experimental systems are needed to identify proteostasis regulators that are critical under mechanical stress conditions. Although Caenorhabditis elegans combines the advantages of existing organismal and cell culture models, an inducible method to stimulate muscle contraction in large populations has been lacking. Here, we present a versatile technique called OptIMMuS (Optogenetic Induction of Mechanical Muscle Stress) to study changes in the proteostasis network associated with mechanical forces. Repeated blue light exposure of a muscle-expressed Chlamydomonas rheinhardii channelrhodopsin-2 variant leads to sustained muscle contraction and mechanical stress. OptIMMuS combined with proximity labeling and mass spectrometry identified regulators that cooperate with the myosin-directed chaperone UNC-45 in muscle proteostasis. We show in genetic epistasis and co-immunoprecipitation experiments that the E3 ligase NHL-1 interacts with UNC-45 and muscle myosin, and we provide evidence that this TRIM32 orthologue affects myosin protein levels and function.

Expression data from Min6 cells maintained under different culture conditons that affect Hes3 expression and localization

Project description:The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor hairy and enhancer of split (Hes3) is a member of the Hes/Hey gene family that regulates developmental processes in progenitor cells from various tissues. We demonstrated the Hes3 expression in mouse pancreatic tissue, suggesting it may have a role in modulating beta-cell function. We employed the mouse insulinoma cell line MIN6 to perform gene expression profiles in conditions known to modulate Hes3 based upon our previous work using neural stem cell cultures. In these conditions, cells showed elevated Hes3 expression and nuclear localization, grew efficiently and showed higher evoked insulin release responses, compared to serum-containing conditions. They also exhibited higher expression of the transcription factor Pdx1 and insulin. Microarrays of RNA isolated from quadruplicate samples of Min6 cells grown under three different culture conditions.
