Farach-Carson","doi":"10.1158/1538-7445.AM2021-3120","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1158/1538-7445.AM2021-3120","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Polarized epithelium is stabilized by lateral cell-cell interactions via cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) and by cell-matrix interactions with basement membrane including with perlecan/HSPG2 (pln). Prostate cancer (PCa) patients with bone metastases have circulating pln fragments, with inverse correlation between MMP-7 staining and loss of pln in cancer tissue. Cleavage of pln by MMP-7 increases cell-matrix interactions and dysregulates cell signaling, permitting migration. We earlier showed pln domain IV-3 (DmIV-3) drives cell-cell cohesion and, when digested with MMP-7, drives cell dyscohesion. Methods: To evaluate the impact of MMP-7 and pln fragments on microtumor dyscohesion and cell migration, uniformly sized PCa microtumors were pre-formed in a microwell system. Pre-formed microtumors were transferred to Dm IV-3 or full length perlecan (FL pln) coated wells for 16-24 hrs. Microtumors were treated with MMP-7 alone or MMP-7 plus predigested Dm IV-3 fragments or MMP-7 plus FL pln fragments. For live cell imaging, tracking of migratory cells leaving microtumors was performed with Imaris software. Co-location of cell adhesion complex components was assessed with Imaris Spots. Results: Pre-formed microtumors cultured with DmIV-3 cleaved by MMP-7 showed lower Pearson9s correlation values at cell boundaries compared to microtumors treated with intact Dm IV-3. Line scan analysis revealed E-cadherin and F-actin fluorescent signals were enriched and co-aligned in microtumors treated with Dm IV-3; enrichment and co-alignment were reduced when DmIV-3 fragments and MMP-7 were present. Track number detected per cell cluster was highest in the presence of FL pln fragments plus MMP-7 along with a measurable change in distribution of track displacement lengths of cells toward high values. Conclusion: Boundary reorganization promotes a migratory cell phenotype in microtumors treated with MMP-7 and DmIV-3 fragments. DmIV-3 fragments generated by MMP-7 cleavage can enhance cell dyscohesion by disrupting interactions between CAMs. Ongoing work will identify DmIV-3 fragment(s) positively associated with tumor dyscohesion that play key roles in secondary metastasis formation. Following patterns of dyscohesion of pre-formed microtumors provides a good model to study dynamic changes in intercellular junction components and quantitate cell migration patterns that foster circulating tumor cell formation and metastasis.

The ability to use light as a reagent to provide free radical and activated oxygen-mediated cytotoxicity, combined with a control of conventional drug release, allows for the fabrication of light-controllable intelligent multiagent nanoconstructs that attack multiple pathways making nanomedicines more effective against cancer. This optically activated approach allows for a mechanistically diverse and spatiotemporally controlled strategy to tumor destruction. The molecules used for light activation have, in addition to therapeutic capabilities, finite fluorescence, creating an imaging handle and providing a built-in Theranostic process.

CAFs are also heterogeneous and perform various tumor-promoting tasks. Understanding whether distinct CAF-subsets exert specific functions, and how the composition of CAFs changes as tumors evolve could improve the accuracy of cancer treatment. Here, we analyzed thousands of CAFs by single-cell RNA-sequencing and index-sorting at several timepoints along breast tumor progression in mice, revealing distinct CAF-subsets. We discovered that the transcriptional programs of these subsets change over time, shifting from an immune-regulatory program at earlier timepoints to wound-healing and antigen-presenting programs at later timepoints, indicating that the composition and functions of CAFs are dynamic. We also found the two main CAF subsets in human breast tumors, wherein their ratio was associated with disease outcome. This association was particularly correlated with BRCA mutations in triple-negative breast cancer. Our findings indicate that the diverse composition of CAFs in breast cancer changes over time as tumors progress, and that these changes are linked to disease outcome.

We have recently shown that ZIP4 (gene name SLC39A4), a zinc transporter, is a novel cancer stem cell (CSC) marker in HGSOC. 100-200 ZIP4+, but not ZIP4-, cells from both PE04 and PEA2 cells formed larger tumors than those from 100-200 ALDH+ cells in mice. Mechanistically, we found that ZIP4 was an upstream regulator of another CSC-marker, NOTCH3, in HGSOC cells. NOTCH3 was functionally involved in spheroid formation in vitro and tumorigenesis in vivo in HGSOC. Drug-resistance is one of the main characteristics of CSCs, While ZIP4 converts drug-resistance to cisplatin (CDDP) and doxorubicin (DOX) as we reported previously, we unexpectedly found that ZIP4 induced a sensitization of HGSOC cells to histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis). In particular, only those HDACis against the Class IIa HDACs showed ZIP4-dependent sensitization. ZIP4 selectively up-regulated HDAC IIa HDACs, including HDAC4 and 5, with little or no effects to HDACs in other classes. ZIP4 knockout (KO) and HDAC4 knockdown (KD) increased cell resistance to LMK-235, a selective HDAC4/5 inhibitor. LMK-235 and HDAC4 knockdown (KD) inhibited spheroid formation in vitro and tumor development in vivo. Collectively, we revealed a novel ZIP4-NOTCH3-HDAC4 axis, which is functionally involved and important in CSC-related activities in vitro and tumorigenesis in vivo, and provide an innovative targeting strategy to CSC.
