Circulating Tumor Cells Clustering Triggers DNA Methylation Changes to Enable Metastasis Seeding

Project description:The ability of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) to form clusters has been linked to increased metastatic potential. Yet biological features and vulnerabilities of CTC clusters remain largely unknown. Our DNA methylation analysis led us to hypothesize that CTC clusters are characterized by active TF networks that support both stemness and proliferation. To identify whether the stemness- and proliferation-related TF networks are also transcriptionally active in CTC clusters compared to single CTCs, we performed single-cell resolution RNA sequencing analysis of single CTCs and CTC clusters, matched within individual liquid biopsies and isolated from six breast cancer patients with progressive metastatic disease, and of single CTCs and CTC clusters isolated from three xenograft models. In addition, among 2,486 FDA-approved compounds, we identify Na+/K+ ATPase inhibitors that enable the dissociation of CTC clusters into single cells, leading to DNA methylation remodeling at critical sites and metastasis suppression. We performed RNA sequencing analysis of BR16 and Brx50 cells upon treatment to assess the molecular consequences of clusters dissociation.

Circulating Tumor Cell Clustering Shapes DNA Methylation to Enable Metastasis Seeding.

Project description:The ability of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) to form clusters has been linked to increased metastatic potential. Yet biological features and vulnerabilities of CTC clusters remain largely unknown. Here, we profile the DNA methylation landscape of single CTCs and CTC clusters from breast cancer patients and mouse models on a genome-wide scale. We find that binding sites for stemness- and proliferation-associated transcription factors are specifically hypomethylated in CTC clusters, including binding sites for OCT4, NANOG, SOX2, and SIN3A, paralleling embryonic stem cell biology. Among 2,486 FDA-approved compounds, we identify Na+/K+ ATPase inhibitors that enable the dissociation of CTC clusters into single cells, leading to DNA methylation remodeling at critical sites and metastasis suppression. Thus, our results link CTC clustering to specific changes in DNA methylation that promote stemness and metastasis and point to cluster-targeting compounds to suppress the spread of cancer.

Circulating tumor cell-derived N-cadherin induces NK cell exhaustion and contributes to tumor self-seeding via the KLRG1 receptor

Project description:Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can survive in the circulation and return to primary tumors through a self-seeding process. However, the mechanisms underlying CTC escape from natural killer (NK) cell-mediated immune surveillance remain unclear. In the present study, self-seeded tumor cells were isolated and characterized by applying a modified mouse model. The harvested self-seeded cells displayed resistance to NK cell-mediated lysis and a higher tumor seeding ability than their parental cells. Elevated expression levels of the CDH2 gene and its protein product, N-cadherin were found in self-seeded cell lines. We revealed an unrecognized role for soluble N-cadherin in inhibiting NK cell antitumor immunity. NK cells secreted cytokines, and fluid shear stress facilitated N-cadherin release from tumor cells by enhancing the activity of A disintegrin and metalloprotease 10 (ADAM10). Soluble N-cadherin triggered NK cell functional exhaustion by interacting with the killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily G member 1 (KLRG1) receptor and therefore protected tumor cells from NK cell killing. Elevated N-cadherin expression was observed in recurrent oral cancer samples compared to matched primary tumors. Our findings illustrated an unknown mechanism by which CTCs evaded NK cell-mediated immune surveillance, which may contribute to tumor self-seeding and recurrence.

Seeding the meiotic DNA break machinery and initiating recombination on chromosome axes

Project description:Recombination-mediated linking of homologous chromosomes is a unique meiotic feature that enables the halving of chromosomal ploidy in sexual life cycles. Meiotic recombination is initiated by programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that are generated by focal multi-protein clusters that condense onto chromosomal axes by poorly understood mechanisms. We discovered in mice that a DBF4-dependent kinase (DDK)–modulated interaction between IHO1 and the chromosomal axis component HORMAD1 effects the formation of axis-bound IHO1 platforms that enhance nucleation of cytologically distinguishable DSB-machinery clusters. This IHO1-HORMAD1-mediated seeding of the DSB-machinery ensures that sufficient DSBs form for efficient pairing of homologous chromosomes. In the absence of IHO1-HORMAD1 interaction, residual DSB activity depends on ANKRD31, which enhances both the seeding and the growth of DSB-machinery clusters. Thus, meiotic DSBs are ensured by complementing pathways that differentially effect seeding and growth of DSB-machinery clusters, and that synergistically enable assembly of the DSB machinery on chromosomal axes.
