Non-canonical EphA2 activation underpins PTEN-mediated metastatic migration and poor clinical outcome in prostate cancer. Br J Cancer 2022; 127:1254-1262. [PMID: 35869144 PMCID: PMC9519535 DOI: 10.1038/s41416-022-01914-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Revised: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The key process of mesenchymal to amoeboid transition (MAT), which enables prostate cancer (PCa) transendothelial migration and subsequent development of metastases in red bone marrow stroma, is driven by phosphorylation of EphA2S897 by pAkt, which is induced by the omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid. Here we investigate the influence of EphA2 signalling in PCa progression and long-term survival. Methods The mechanisms underpinning metastatic biopotential of altered EphA2 signalling in relation to PTEN status were assessed in vitro using canonical (EphA2D739N) and non-canonical (EphA2S897G) PC3-M mutants, interrogation of publicly available PTEN-stratified databases and clinical validation using a PCa TMA (n = 177) with long-term follow-up data. Spatial heterogeneity of EphA2 was assessed using a radical prostatectomy cohort (n = 67). Results Non-canonical EphA2 signalling via pEphA2S897 is required for PCa transendothelial invasion of bone marrow endothelium. High expression of EphA2 or pEphA2S897 in a PTENlow background is associated with poor overall survival. Expression of EphA2, pEphA2S897 and the associated MAT marker pMLC2 are spatially regulated with the highest levels found within lesion areas within 500 µm of the prostate margin. Conclusion EphA2 MAT-related signalling confers transendothelial invasion. This is associated with a substantially worse prognosis in PTEN-deficient PCa.

Abstract
A number of clinical studies have linked adiposity with increased cancer incidence, progression and metastasis, and adipose tissue is now being credited with both systemic and local effects on tumour development and survival. Adipocytes, a major component of benign adipose tissue, represent a significant source of lipids, cytokines and adipokines, and their presence in the tumour microenvironment substantially affects cellular trafficking, signalling and metabolism. Cancers that have a high predisposition to metastasize to the adipocyte-rich host organs are likely to be particularly affected by the presence of adipocytes. Although our understanding of how adipocytes influence tumour progression has grown significantly over the last several years, the mechanisms by which adipocytes regulate the metastatic niche are not well-understood. In this review, we focus on the omentum, a visceral white adipose tissue depot, and the bone, a depot for marrow adipose tissue, as two distinct adipocyte-rich organs that share common characteristic: they are both sites of significant metastatic growth. We highlight major differences in origin and function of each of these adipose depots and reveal potential common characteristics that make them environments that are attractive and conducive to secondary tumour growth. Special attention is given to how omental and marrow adipocytes modulate the tumour microenvironment by promoting angiogenesis, affecting immune cells and altering metabolism to support growth and survival of metastatic cancer cells.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid (AA) stimulates endothelial cell (EC) proliferation through an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), that, in turn, promotes nitric oxide (NO) release. AA-evoked Ca2+ signals are mainly mediated by Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) channels. Circulating endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) represent the only established precursors of ECs. In the present study, we, therefore, sought to elucidate whether AA promotes human ECFC (hECFC) proliferation through an increase in [Ca2+]i and the following activation of the endothelial NO synthase (eNOS). AA induced a dose-dependent [Ca2+]i raise that was mimicked by its non-metabolizable analogue eicosatetraynoic acid. AA-evoked Ca2+ signals required both intracellular Ca2+ release and external Ca2+ inflow. AA-induced Ca2+ release was mediated by inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors from the endoplasmic reticulum and by two pore channel 1 from the acidic stores of the endolysosomal system. AA-evoked Ca2+ entry was, in turn, mediated by TRPV4, while it did not involve store-operated Ca2+ entry. Moreover, AA caused an increase in NO levels which was blocked by preventing the concomitant increase in [Ca2+]i and by inhibiting eNOS activity with NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME). Finally, AA per se did not stimulate hECFC growth, but potentiated growth factors-induced hECFC proliferation in a Ca2+- and NO-dependent manner. Therefore, AA-evoked Ca2+ signals emerge as an additional target to prevent cancer vascularisation, which may be sustained by ECFC recruitment.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies have shown not only a relationship between the intake of dietary lipids and an increased risk of developing metastatic prostate cancer, but also the type of lipid intake that influences the risk of metastatic prostate cancer. The Omega-6 poly-unsaturated fatty acid, Arachidonic acid, has been shown to enhance the proliferation of malignant prostate epithelial cells and increase the risk of advanced prostate cancer. However, its role in potentiating the migration of cancer cells is unknown. Here we show that arachidonic acid at concentrations ⩽5 μM is a potent stimulator of malignant epithelial cellular invasion, which is able to restore invasion toward hydrocortisone-deprived adipocyte-free human bone marrow stroma completely. This observed invasion is mediated by the arachidonic acid metabolite prostaglandin E2 and is inhibited by the Omega-3 poly-unsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid at a ratio of 1 : 2 Omega-3 : Omega-6, and by the COX-2 inhibitor NS-398. These results identify a mechanism by which arachidonic acid may potentiate the risk of metastatic migration and secondary implantation in vivo, a risk which can be reduced with the uptake of Omega-3 poly-unsaturated fatty acids.

Abstract
Eicosanoids have been shown to be potent immunoregulatory arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites. AA is the precursor of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) which are able to modulate both inflammation and the immune response. Dendritic cells process and present antigens to T lymphocytes. They are highly specialized antigen-presenting cells (APC) and usually considered as 'professional APC'. In the present paper, we report some data on the biosynthetic capacity of murine APC from the bone marrow (BM-DCs) to produce AA metabolites. Using an ELISA we have observed that BM-DCs spontaneously produce both PGE(2) and LTB(4) whose production increased in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). In addition we found that LTB(4) production was twice as high when both COX pathways were blocked with selective COX-inhibitors. We have also investigated the effect of PGE(2) and LTB(4) on the in vitro generation of the so-called BM-DCs. Exogenous PGE(2) and LTB(4) added to bone marrow cultures inhibit and promote, respectively, BM-DC generation. PGE(2) added to the maturing BM-DCs reduces their MHC class-II expression.

Abstract
The immature megakaryoblastic cell line MEG-01 responds to iloprost with an increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) and cAMP. The Ca(2+) response is almost absent in CHRF-288-11 cells, but cAMP formation is preserved in this more mature megakaryoblastic cell line. Also, in human hematopoietic stem cells, iloprost induces a Ca(2+) response and cAMP formation. The Ca(2+) response is downregulated during megakaryocytopoiesis, but cAMP formation remains unchanged. The Ca(2+) increase may be caused by cAMP-mediated inhibition of Ca(2+) sequestration, because it is (1) independent of Ca(2+) entry; (2) mimicked by forskolin, an activator of adenylyl cyclase, and isobutylmethylxanthine, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterases; and (3) preserved in the presence of inhibitors of protein kinase A and inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate receptors. The small GTPase Rap1 has been implicated in the control of Ca(2+) sequestration. Indeed, Rap1 activation parallels the iloprost- and forskolin-induced Ca(2+) increase and is unaffected by the calcium chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N',-tetraacetic acid-AM. These findings reveal a novel mechanism for elevating cytosolic Ca(2+) by cAMP, possibly via GTP-Rap1.

Abstract
Bone marrow stromal cells regulate marrow haematopoiesis by secreting interleukins (IL) such as IL-8. Lipid mediators modulate IL-8 synthesis in numerous cell types. We have investigated the effects of 5 lipid mediators (PAF, PGE(2), LTB(4), 12-HETE and 15-HETE) on the spontaneous and cytokine-induced IL-8 synthesis by human bone marrow stromal cells. By using reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) we demonstrate that these cells constitutively express IL-8 transcripts. By using a specific ELISA, we found that the production of IL-8 by marrow stromal cells is enhanced after stimulation with 12-HETE (1 microM) both in serum-free and serum-containing culture medium. LTB(4)(1 microM) enhances IL-8 production only in serum-supplemented medium. PAF, PGE(2)and 15-HETE (1 microM to 0.1 nM) have no effect on the spontaneous and serum-induced production of IL-8 by human bone marrow stromal cells. PGE(2)(1 microM or 10 nM) reduces marrow stromal cell IL-8 synthesis in response to IL-1alpha or TNF-alpha. In contrast, PAF, 12-HETE, 15-HETE and LTB(4)have no effect. In conclusion, various lipid mediators modulate the spontaneous, serum- or cytokine-induced IL-8 synthesis by bone marrow stromal cells, highlighting, for the first time, their potential role in the regulation of IL-8 production within the human bone marrow.

Abstract
Bone marrow stromal cells regulate marrow haematopoiesis by secreting growth factors such as macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) that regulates the proliferation, differentiation and several functions of cells of the mononuclear-phagocytic lineage. By using a specific ELISA we found that their constitutive secretion of M-CSF is enhanced by tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). The lipid mediator prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) markedly reduces in a time- and dose-dependent manner the constitutive and TNF-alpha-induced M-CSF synthesis by bone marrow stromal cells. In contrast, other lipid mediators such as 12-HETE, 15-HETE, leukotriene B4, leukotriene C4 and lipoxin A4 have no effect. EP2/EP4 selective agonists (11-deoxy PGE1 and 1-OH PGE1) and EP2 agonist (19-OH PGE2) inhibit M-CSF synthesis by bone marrow stromal cells while an EP1/EP3 agonist (sulprostone) has no effect. Stimulation with PGE2 induces an increase of intracellular cAMP levels in bone marrow stromal cells. cAMP elevating agents (forskolin and cholera toxin) mimic the PGE2-induced inhibition of M-CSF production. In conclusion, PGE2 is a potent regulator of M-CSF production by human bone marrow stromal cells, its effects being mediated via cAMP and PGE receptor EP2/EP4 subtypes.

Abstract
Lipoxygenase inhibitors reduce the growth of K562 cells (chronic myelogenous human leukaemia blasts) suggesting a role for endogenous lipoxygenase products of arachidonic acid (AA) in their proliferation. The objectives of this work are to investigate the incorporation of AA into K562 cells and to assess the effects of the exogenous addition of AA and lipoxygenase products on their growth. The mechanism of acylation of [3H]-AA indicates that K562 cells incorporate AA into their membrane phospholipids and triglycerides. PLA2-treatment and base hydrolysis experiments confirm that [3H]-AA is incorporated unmodified into K562 phospholipids and is linked by an ester bond. Prelabelling-chase experiments indicate a transfer of labelled AA from phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidylethanolamine. The addition of AA and lipoxygenase products of AA (leukotriene B4 and C4, lipoxin B4, 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) and 15-HETE) has no effect on K562 cell proliferation assessed by [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA. In conclusion, while K562 cells readily incorporate AA into their membrane phospholipids and triglycerides, AA and lipoxygenase products are not important modulators of their proliferation.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid (AA), a fatty acid found in the human bone marrow plasma, is the precursor of eicosanoids that modulate bone marrow haematopoiesis. To further our understanding of the role of AA in the bone marrow physiology, we have assessed its incorporation in human bone marrow mononuclear cells. Gas chromatography analysis indicates the presence of AA in their fatty acid composition. In bone marrow mononuclear cells, [3H]-AA is incorporated into triglycerides and is later delivered into phospholipids, a result not observed with blood mononuclear cells. Prelabelling-chase experiments indicate a trafficking of labelled AA from phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidylethanolamine. Stimulation of prelabelled bone marrow mononuclear cells with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) results in the release of a part of the incorporated labelled AA. Finally, exogenous AA (up to 1 microM) has no significant effect on cell growth. In conclusion, human bone marrow mononuclear cells participate to the control of marrow AA concentrations by incorporating AA into phospholipids and triglycerides. In turn, bone marrow mononuclear cells can release AA in response to the potent haematopoietic growth factor GM-CSF.
