Project description:Defects in cell-cell contacts have been proposed to participate in early steps of tumor metastasis1 but little is known about the signals from the cancer cell niche that influence this process. Here, we show that the lack of adherens junctions caused by genetic loss of the adhesion molecule NECTIN1 in melanoma promotes tumor dissemination specifically under growth factor deprivation. We found that NECTIN1 was deleted in 53% of human melanomas and that its loss was enriched in metastases. NECTIN1 inactivation in zebrafish melanomas stimulated cancer cell spreading in vivo, while in human cell lines, it increased cell migration specifically in response to serum starvation. We further identified IGF1 as the serum component responsible for this effect. Serum withdrawal or IGF1 inhibition induced formation of strong adherens junctions between NECTIN1-wild-type melanoma cells. In contrast, NECTIN1-deficient cells were unable to establish adherens junctions and instead activated integrin-mediated motility through a FAK/SRC axis. During melanoma dissemination, NECTIN1 loss thus causes a cellular phenotypic switch from cell-cell adhesion to cell-matrix adhesion triggered by IGF1 signaling. Our study uncovers a mechanism by which cancer cells integrate information from the tumor microenvironment and cell-cell contacts to regulate their migratory behavior during spreading.

Project description:Sugar is an important resource for energy generation and developmental regulation in plants, and sucrose starvation causes enormous changes in cellular morphology, enzyme activities and gene expression. Genome-wide gene expression profiling provides a comprehensive knowledge into gene expression under nutrients depletion and senescence, however, that of monocot model plant rice under sucrose depletion is still under investigation. Here, the time-course monitoring of gene expression profiles in sucrose-starved rice (Oryza sativa cv Tainung67) suspension cells was investigated by 21495 probes-containing Agilent rice chip. In sucrose-starved cells, the induced vacuolar biogenesis was coincided with the significantly upregulated expression of genes encoding H+-pyrophosphatase, delta-TIP, one putative alpha-TIP, several vacuolar proteases and proteinase inhibitors, and one OsATG3. To survey the overall metabolic adaptations under sucrose depletion the genes significantly alternating expression level were incorporated into multiple metabolic pathways. The majority of genes encoding enzymes involved in biosynthesis and degradation pathways of various macromolecules were comprehensively down- and upregulated, respectively, by sucrose starvation. Transcriptional regulation of gene expression is important for the physiological adaptations to environmental stress and many transcription factors, including bZIPs, NACs, and WRKY showed significant increase in transcript levels under sucrose starvation. Concurrently, statistical analysis reveals that their corresponding consensus cis-elements, such as ABA-responsive element, CACG, ACI, ACII and CTTATCC, are frequently found in the promoter regions of many Suc starvation-upregulated genes. Particle bombardment-mediated transient promoter activity assays further showed that the CTTATCC, derived form TATCCA, and the AC motifs, are the promising sucrose starvation responsive activators in sucrose-starved rice suspension cells.

Project description:The oncogene c-Jun plays a key role in development and cancer. Yet, its role in cell fate decision remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Here we report that c-Jun confers different fate decisions upon mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) in adhesion vs suspension. We developed a Tet-on system for temporal induction of c-Jun expression by Doxycycline treatment in mESCs. We show that mESCs carrying the inducible c-Jun TetOn remain pluripotent and grow slowly in suspension with induction of c-Jun, while undergoing differentiation with normal proliferative potentials in adherence upon c-Jun induction. Apparently, c-Jun pushes mESCs in suspension into cell cycle arrest at G1/S, through the induction of Cdkn1a/b and Cdkn2/a/b/c. Despite cell cycle arrest, they can re-enter cell cycle upon plating on adhesive surface and grow into typical mESC colonies albeit at lower efficiency. These results demonstrate that mESCs respond to c-Jun differently in suspension or adherence. Our results suggest that cells in suspension may be more resistant to differentiation than in adherence.

Project description:In order to metastasize, few cells need to detach from the primary tumor, and transition through the circulation to distant sites to establish new solid tumor metastases. The gene expression changes occurring between these transitions are poorly understood, and controversial findings have been reported regarding transitions between epithelial (E) and mesenchymal (M) cell states. To model the metastasis process in vitro, here we examined the dynamics of gene expression changes and respective cell fates that are occurring in cells that are transitioning from adhesion culture to suspension 3D culture (mammospheres) and back to adhesion culture in vitro. We found that mammosphere and replating cultures of epithelial (E) cell lines (HP cells and E clones) led to enrichment for mesenchymal (M) signatures characteristic of the mesenchymal cell lines, indicative of an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), but retainment of E-specific signatures (Grosse-Wilde et al., 2015). This co-expression of E and M signatures was stably maintained between the mammosphere state in suspension and in replated cells, indicating a stable E/M gene expression state by partial EMT in E cell lines, which has been associated with a stem-like state (Grosse-Wilde et al., 2015; Jolly et al., 2014; Lu et al., 2014; Zhang et al., 2014). Interestingly, mammosphere suspension culture of mesenchymal M clones also resulted in co-expression of E and M signatures generated by partial mesenchymal to epithelial transition (MET). However, in stark contrast to E clones and HP cells, immediately upon replating M cell-derived mammospheres to adhesion lost the intermediate E/M state and converted back to stable expression of M signatures indicative of rapid EMT. This suggests that the intermediate state in M cells is very unstable. Together, these replating data suggest that prolonged detachment of epithelial-derived cells leads to loss of expression of E signatures and EMT. Life-threatening macrometastases typically recapitulate the gene expression of the primary tumor, which requires expression of E signatures, while the mesenchymal micrometastases are frequent but not-proliferative and harmless. Since all HMLER cell lines independent of their initial E or M state converged to an M state upon expansion in suspension, our data suggest that induction of EMT in suspended HMLER cells may be one reason for the observed benign non-metastatic character of HMLER cells when used in mouse xenograft experiments, and for their metastatic inefficiency. Our datasets of the replating kinetic may be useful to identify which pathways are involved in the processes enabling the mixed HP population to maintain a stable E/M expression signature and a more stem-like state, which we have identified as caused by cell-cell cooperation between phenotypically different E and M cell-types. By contrast, M cells can only transiently assume this E/M gene expression state, and not generate a stable phenotypic heterogeneity and therefore absence of cooperation between E and M cell-types. Instability of the intermediate stem-like E/M state in M cell-types and rapid conversion to the M state can explain why 1) pure M populations are often phenotypically stable and are not undergoing MET in vitro (Schmidt et al., 2015; Zhang et al., 2014), 2) why pure M populations are less aggressive resulting in less metastases than mixed cooperating E and M cell populations (Ocaña et al., 2012; Tsuji et al., 2008) or 3) why complete EMT results in more benign less metastasizing tumors than incomplete EMT (Tran et al., 2014; Tsai et al., 2012) and finally 4) why expression of M traits in primary tumors are associated with good patient outcomes and less metastases than E signatures (Kim et al., 2011; Mylona et al., 2008; Tan et al., 2014).

For these analyses we used the heterogeneous parental HMLER (HP) cell line, with isogenic epithelial (E) and mesenchymal (M) cell-types (Elenbaas et al., 2001), and stable clonal HMLER-derived E and M cell lines, which are normally passaged under adhesion conditions (_adh, GSE66527). We cultured cell lines under 3D suspension conditions resembling mammosphere growth conditions that are typically used to enrich for stem-like cells (Dontu et al., 2003), and examined gene expression of cells under mammosphere conditions (_sus, GSE66527), or after replating (_re) in a kinetic examining gene expression from 6, 24, 96, and 240 hrs after cells were allowed to readhere to normal dishes for the heterogeneous but mostly epithelial (HP) cell lines and mesenchymal (M4) cell lines. To validate our findings we also examined gene expression of cells replated after mammosphere culture for about two weeks from three different E (E3, E4, E5) and M clones (M3, M4, M1). All gene expression samples were taken from biological replicates (at least duplicates) of cells grown in different wells or even at different times. Gene expression of replated (_re) cells was compared to the respective cell lines grown under adhesion conditions (_adh), as well as to the respective cell line grown under suspension mammosphere condition (_sus) which have been deposited previously under accession number GSE66527.

Project description:Summary: Melanoma spheroids grown under neural crest cell conditions are highly plastic migratory/invasive tumor cells endowed with immunomodulator function Background: The aggressiveness of melanoma tumors is likely to rely on their well-recognized heterogeneity and plasticity. Melanoma comprises multi subpopulations of cancer cells some of which may possess stem cell-like properties supporting the notion of plasticity. Although useful for certain tumors, the use of the sphere-formation assay to identify stem cell-like or tumor initiating cells subpopulations in human melanoma has been recently challenged. Our study reveals that this assay predicts a functional phenotype associated with aggressive behavior of tumor cells. Methodology/Principal Findings: We analyzed the molecular and functional phenotypes of melanoma spheroids formed in neural crest cell medium. Whether from metastatic (SLM8) or advanced primary (Mela1) tumors, spheroid cells expressed melanoma-associated markers. They displayed higher capacity to differentiate along mesenchymal lineages, and showed enhanced expression of SOX2, NANOG, KLF4, and/or OCT4 transcription factors, but not extensive self-renewal or enhanced tumorigenicity when compared to their adherent counterparts. To determine whether melanoma spheroids in our model could predict a molecular or functional phenotype, we performed gene expression profiling experiments using Affymetrix microarrays. Gene expression profiling attributed a neural crest cell signature to these spheroids and indicated that a migratory/invasive and immune-function modulating program could be associated with these cells. In vitro assays confirmed that these spheroids are endowed with enhanced migratory/invasive capacities. In immune activation assays, spheroid cells elicited a poorer allogenic response from immune cells and inhibited mitogen-dependent T cells activation and proliferation more efficiently than their adherent counterparts. Thus, our findings reveal novel immune-modulator function of melanoma spheroid cells and suggest specific roles for these spheroids in invasion and in evasion of antitumor immunity. Conclusion/Significance: The association of a more plastic, invasive and evasive, thus a more aggressive tumor phenotype with melanoma spheroid cells reveals a previously unrecognized aspect of tumor cells expanded as spheroid cultures. While of limited efficiency for melanoma initiating cell identification, our melanoma spheroid model predicted aggressive phenotype and could therefore, be constructive to investigate melanoma aggressiveness, relevant to patients and clinical transferability.
