Muscarella AM, Dai W, Mitchell PG, Zhang W, Wang H, Jia L, Stossi F, Mancini MA, Chiu W, Zhang XHF. Unique cellular protrusions mediate breast cancer cell migration by tethering to osteogenic cells. NPJ Breast Cancer 2020; 6:42. [PMID: 32964116 PMCID: PMC7477119 DOI: 10.1038/s41523-020-00183-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2019] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Migration and invasion are key properties of metastatic cancer cells. These properties can be acquired through intrinsic reprogramming processes such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In this study, we discovered an alternative "migration-by-tethering" mechanism through which cancer cells gain the momentum to migrate by adhering to mesenchymal stem cells or osteoblasts. This tethering is mediated by both heterotypic adherens junctions and gap junctions, and leads to a unique cellular protrusion supported by cofilin-coated actin filaments. Inhibition of gap junctions or depletion of cofilin reduces migration-by-tethering. We observed evidence of these protrusions in bone segments harboring experimental and spontaneous bone metastasis in animal models. These data exemplify how cancer cells may acquire migratory ability without intrinsic reprogramming. Furthermore, given the important roles of osteogenic cells in early-stage bone colonization, our observations raise the possibility that migration-by-tethering may drive the relocation of disseminated tumor cells between different niches in the bone microenvironment.

Abstract
The most common site of breast cancer metastasis is the bone, occurring in approximately 70% of patients with advanced disease. Bone metastasis is associated with severe morbidities and high mortality. Therefore, deeper understanding of the mechanisms that enable bone-metastatic relapse are urgently needed. We report the establishment and characterization of a bone-seeking variant of breast cancer cells that spontaneously forms aggressive bone metastases following surgical resection of primary tumor. We characterized the modifications in the immune milieu during early and late stages of metastatic relapse and found that the formation of bone metastases is associated with systemic changes, as well as modifications of the bone microenvironment towards an immune suppressive milieu. Furthermore, we characterized the intrinsic changes in breast cancer cells that facilitate bone-tropism and found that they acquire mesenchymal and osteomimetic features. This model provides a clinically relevant platform to study the functional interactions between breast cancer cells and the bone microenvironment, in an effort to identify novel targets for intervention.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a molecularly heterogeneous disease that can be subdivided into different subtypes. Compared with the other subtypes, luminal breast cancer (LBC) is considered more susceptible to bone metastasis. However, the intrinsic mechanisms remain elusive. Bioinformatics analysis of the preset study showed that N-acetyltransferase 1 (NAT1) was specifically expressed in LBC and closely correlated with bone metastasis. In addition, NAT1 could promote LBC cell migration and clonal formation, induce osteoclast differentiation and raise the Rankl/Opg ratio in osteoblasts. Our in vivo experiment demonstrated that NAT1 promoted LBC bone metastasis and bone destruction, which could be reversed by NAT1 inhibitor treatment. The result of cytokine array showed that NAT1 could significantly over activate the NF-κB signaling pathway and up-regulate the expression of IL-1B, which further worked as downstream factors in these processes. All these results demonstrated NAT1 was up-regulated in LBC and promoted the formation of bone metastatic niche and osteolytic bone metastasis through the NAT1/NF-κB/IL-1B axis. This finding may provide a new pathway to help understand the mechanisms of LBC bone metastasis and suggest a novel therapeutic and diagnostic target for its treatment.

Abstract
Metastases-the spreading of cancer cells from primary tumors to distant organs, including bone-is often incurable and is the major cause of morbidity in cancer patients. Understanding how cancer cells acquire the ability to colonize to bone and become overt metastases is critical to identify new therapeutic targets and develop new therapies against bone metastases. Recent reports indicate that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and, as its consequence, the unfolded protein response (UPR) is activated during metastatic dissemination. However, their roles in this process remain largely unknown. In this review, we discuss the recent progress on evaluating the tumorigenic, immunoregulatory and metastatic effects of ER stress and the UPR on bone metastases. We explore new opportunities to translate this knowledge into potential therapeutic strategies for patients with bone metastases.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) remains a clinical challenge despite improved treatments and public awareness to ensure early diagnosis. A major issue is the ability of BC cells (BCCs) to survive as dormant cancer cells in the bone marrow (BM), resulting in the cancer surviving for decades with the potential to resurge as metastatic cancer. The experimental evidence indicates similarity between dormant BCCs and other stem cells, resulting in the preponderance of data to show dormant BCCs being cancer stem cells (CSCs). The BM niche and their secretome support BCC dormancy. Lacking in the literature is a comprehensive research to describe how the hypoxic environment within the BM may influence the behavior of BCCs. This information is relevant to understand the prognosis of BC in young and aged individuals whose oxygen levels differ in BM. This review discusses the changing information on vascularity in different regions of the BM and the impact on endogenous hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). This review highlights the necessary information to provide insights on vascularity of different BM regions on the behavior of BCCs, in particular a dormant phase. For instance, how the transcription factor HIF1-α (hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha), functioning as first responder under hypoxic conditions, affects the expression of specific gene networks involved in energy metabolism, cell survival, tumor invasion and angiogenesis. This enables cell fate transition and facilitates tumor heterogeneity, which in turn favors tumor progression and resistance to anticancer treatments Thus, HIF1-α could be a potential target for cancer treatment. This review describes epigenetic mechanisms involved in hypoxic responses during cancer dormancy in the bone marrow. The varied hypoxic environment in the BM is relevant to understand the complex process of the aging bone marrow for insights on breast cancer outcome between the young and aged.

Abstract
Multifactorial diseases affecting musculoskeletal tissues are characterized by the interactions between multiple tissues, such as muscle and nerves in neuromuscular diseases, or multiple cellular components in a tissue, as in the case of bone tumors, interacting with bone cells. For these diseases also the influence of different biophysical and biochemical stimuli, such as mechanical overload and inflammatory molecules in osteoarthritis, play a key role. To investigate these complex phenomena, organ-on-a-chip systems have been developed, taking into account specific disease characteristics such as being directly derived from patients, the presence of specifically mutated cells, or a combination of relevant biophysical and/or biochemical stimuli. Depending on the envisaged application, different issues remain to be addressed. In particular, improving automation and output sensors are key for drug screening applications, while refining model microarchitecture to enhance physiological fidelity is needed for more basic science studies.

Abstract
Background Late-stage breast cancer preferentially metastasises to bone; despite advances in targeted therapies, this condition remains incurable. The lack of clinically relevant models for studying breast cancer metastasis to a human bone microenvironment has stunted the development of effective treatments for this condition. To address this problem, we have developed humanised mouse models in which breast cancer patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) metastasise to human bone implants with low variability and high frequency. Methods To model the human bone environment, bone discs from femoral heads of patients undergoing hip replacement surgery were implanted subcutaneously into NOD/SCID mice. For metastasis studies, 7 patient-derived xenograft tumours (PDX: BB3RC32, ER+ PR+ HER2−; BB2RC08, ER+ PR+ ER2−; BB6RC37, ER− PR− HER2− and BB6RC39, ER+ PR+ HER2+), MDA-MB-231-luc2, T47D-luc2 or MCF7-Luc2 cells were injected into the 4th mammary ducts and metastases monitored by luciferase imaging and confirmed on histological sections. Bone integrity, viability and vascularisation were assessed by uCT, calcein uptake and histomorphometry. Expression profiling of genes/proteins during different stages of metastasis were assessed by whole genome Affymetrix array, real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry. Importance of IL-1 was confirmed following anakinra treatment. Results Implantation of femoral bone provided a metabolically active, human-specific site for tumour cells to metastasise to. After 4 weeks, bone implants were re-vascularised and demonstrated active bone remodelling (as evidenced by the presence of osteoclasts, osteoblasts and calcein uptake). Restricting bone implants to the use of subchondral bone and introduction of cancer cells via intraductal injection maximised metastasis to human bone implants. MDA-MB-231 cells specifically metastasised to human bone (70% metastases) whereas T47D, MCF7, BB3RC32, BB2RC08, and BB6RC37 cells metastasised to both human bone and mouse bones. Importantly, human bone was the preferred metastatic site especially from ER+ PDX (100% metastasis human bone compared with 20–75% to mouse bone), whereas ER-ve PDX developed metastases in 20% of human and 20% of mouse bone. Breast cancer cells underwent a series of molecular changes as they progressed from primary tumours to bone metastasis including altered expression of IL-1B, IL-1R1, S100A4, CTSK, SPP1 and RANK. Inhibiting IL-1B signalling significantly reduced bone metastasis. Conclusions Our reliable and clinically relevant humanised mouse models provide significant advancements in modelling of breast cancer bone metastasis.

Abstract
Metastasis is the most devastating stage of cancer progression and causes the majority of cancer-related deaths. Clinical observations suggest that most cancers metastasize to specific organs, a process known as "organotropism." Elucidating the underlying mechanisms may help identify targets and treatment strategies to benefit patients. This review summarizes recent findings on tumor-intrinsic properties and their interaction with unique features of host organs, which together determine organ-specific metastatic behaviors. Emerging insights related to the roles of metabolic changes, the immune landscapes of target organs, and variation in epithelial-mesenchymal transitions open avenues for future studies of metastasis organotropism.
