Project description:We identified sensory nerves as more abundant in triple-negative human breast tumors. Human triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells (MDA-MB-231, SUM159) were co-cultured with mice primary sensory neurons from dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Breast can-cer cells were found to attach to neurons and have higher migration speed and prolifera-tion rate. Species-specific RNA sequencing highlighted cell migration and adhesion among the most upregulated pathways for cancer cells in coculture. We identified a novel mechanism where cancer’s PlexinB3 interacted with neuron’s Sema5A to regulate attachment and migration along nerve fibers. These findings demonstrate that sensory nerves induced a drastic shift in TNBC cells gene expression, and that dirupting the nerve-cancer is a viable strategy to impede metastasis

Project description:The sympathetic nervous system controls a wide spectrum of bodily functions including operation of vessels, cardiac rhythm, and the “flight or fight response”. Sympathetic neurons, which are neural crest-derived, develop in coordination with presynaptic motor nerves extending from the central nervous system (CNS). By using nerve-selective genetic ablations, we revealed that sympathetic ganglia development depends on CNS-derived motor innervation. In the absence of preganglionic motor nerves, trunk sympathetic chain ganglia were fragmented and smaller in size, while cervical ganglia were severely misshapen. Sympathetic neurons were misplaced along sensory fibers and projected towards abnormal paths, in some cases invading the sensory dorsal root ganglia. The misplaced progenitors of sympathoblasts corresponded to the nerve-associated, neural crest-derived Schwann cell precursors (SCPs). Notably, we found that SCPs activate the autonomic marker PHOX2B while migrating along motor nerves towards the region of the dorsal aorta in wildtype embryos, suggesting that SCP differentiate into sympathetic neurons while still nerve-associated in motor-ablated embryos. Ligand-receptor prediction from single cell transcriptomic data coupled with functional studies identified Semaphorin 3A/3F as candidate motor nerve-derived signals influencing neural crest migration along axons. Thus, motor nerves control the placement of sympathoblasts and their subsequent axonal navigation during critical periods of sympathetic chain development.

Project description:Peripheral nerve repair and functional recovery depend on the rate of nerve regeneration and the quality of target reinnervation. It is important to fully understand the cellular and molecular basis underlying the specificity of peripheral nerve regeneration, which means the achieving of respective correct pathfinding and accurate target reinnervation for regrowing motor and sensory axons. In this study, a quantitative proteomic technique, based on isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) was used to profile the protein expression pattern between single motor and sensory nerves at 14 days after peripheral nerve transection. Among a total of 1259 proteins identified, 176 proteins showed the differential expressions between injured motor and sensory nerves. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were applied to validate the proteomic data on representative differentially expressed proteins. Functional categorization indicated that differentially expressed proteins were linked to a diverse array of molecular functions, including axonogenesis, response to axon injury, tissue remodeling, axon ensheathment, cell proliferation and adhesion, vesicle-mediated transport, response to oxidative stress, internal signal cascade, and macromolecular complex assembly, which might play an essential role in peripheral motor and sensory nerve regeneration. Overall, we hope that the proteomic database obtained in this study could serve as a solid foundation for the comprehensive investigation of differentially expressed proteins between injured motor and sensory nerves and for the mechanism elucidation of the specificity of peripheral nerve regeneration.

Project description:Utilizing surgical and chemical skin sensory denervation methods, we show that afferent neurons support the growth of melanoma tumors in vivo. We demonstrate that sensory innervation limits the activation of effective anti-tumor immune response. Specifically, sensory ablation led to improved leukocyte recruitment and infiltration into tumors, decreased intratumoral lymphoid and myeloid immunosuppressive cells, and the activation of T effector cells within the TME. We found that cutaneous sensory nerves hinder the maturation of intratumoral high endothelial venules and the formation of mature tertriary lymphoid-like structures containing organized clusters of CD4+ T cells and B cells. Denervation further increased T cell clonality and expanded the B cell repertoire in the TME. Importantly, CD8a depletion prevented the denervation-dependent anti-tumor effects. Finally, we observed that the gene signatures associated with immune function and sensory innervation were inversely correlated in human primary cutaneous melanomas, and the latter was a negative prognostic marker of the overall survival in the examined cohort. Our results suggest that tumor-associated sensory neurons negatively regulate the development of effective anti-tumor immune responses, thereby defining a novel target for therapeutic intervention in the cancer setting.

Project description:In breast cancer, nerve presence has been correlated with more invasive disease and worse prognosis, yet the mechanisms by which different types of peripheral nerves drive tumor progression remain poorly understood. In this study, we identified sensory nerves as more abundant in human triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) tumors. Co-injection of sensory neurons isolated from the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of adult female mice with human TNBC cells in immunocompromised mice increased the number of lung metastases. Direct in vitro co-culture of human TNBC cells with the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of adult female mice revealed that TNBC cells adhere to sensory neuron fibers leading to an increase in migration speed. Species-specific RNA sequencing revealed that co-culture of TNBC cells with sensory nerves upregulates the expression of genes associated with cell migration and adhesion in cancer cells. We demonstrated that lack of the semaphorin receptor PlexinB3 in cancer cells attenuate their adhesion to and migration on sensory nerves. Together, our results identify a mechanism by which nerves contribute to breast cancer migration and metastasis by inducing a shift in TNBC cell gene expression and support the rationale for disrupting neuron-cancer cell interactions to target metastasis.

Project description:While the inflammatory immune response of the lung to allergens and pathogens has been extensively studied, little is known about how sensory nerves change in response to an inflammatory insult within the organ they innervate. In our study we describe the collection of vagal sensory neurons innervating the mouse lung, labelled with a retrograde fluorescent tracer instilled into the airways, and the analysis of their transcriptomes by RNAseq. We also determined transcriptomes of the complete sensory ganglia (vagal, trigeminal, DRG) for comparison. We identified transcripts of genes exclusively expressed in vagal nerves, and not in any other sensory nerve type or any other organ. These include unique ion channels, G-protein coupled receptors and several transcripts of unknown function.

Project description:In this study, a quantitative proteomic technique based on isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) was used to compare the proteome of cultured sensory and motor nerve fibroblasts (Fbs). Among a total of 2597 overlapping proteins identified, we obtained 148 differentially expressed proteins, of which 116 proteins were significantly higher expressed in sensory Fbs, and 32 proteins were significantly higher expressed in motor Fbs. Western blot and qPCR analysis were applied to validate differentially expressed proteins. Functional categorization indicated that differentially expressed proteins were linked to a diverse array of biological processes , including regeneration, axon guidance, cytoskeleton organization, cell proliferation, cell migration, cell adhesion, and tissue remodeling, which might play a critical role in the specificity of peripheral nerve regeneration. Furthermore, following co-culture of motor neurons with motor or sensory Fbs , motor Fbs significantly enhanced neurite growth than sensory Fbs. These findings indicated that nerve Fbs expressed the distinct motor and sensory phenotypes involved in different patterns of protein expression, biological processes, and effects on neurons.
