Abstract
Chondrosarcoma (CHS), also known as malignant cartilage tumors, is the second most common bone cancer after osteosarcoma. This tumor is particularly chemo- and radioresistant, and the only therapeutic alternative is surgery with wide margins. The tumor immune microenvironment reveals an infiltration of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) sometimes approaching 50% of the tumor mass, mainly differentiated into M2-like phenotype and correlated with poor prognosis and metastasis. Thus, macrophage-targeting therapies could have an interest in the management of CHS. To evaluate these strategies, we propose here the development of a three-dimensional (3D) tumoroid co-culture model between two human CHS cell lines (JJ012 and CH2879) and a human leukemia monocytic cell line (THP-1) in a methylcellulose matrix. These two models were compared to the in vivo xenograft models in terms of macrophage phenotypes, proteoglycans, MMP-9, and COX-2 expression. Finally, mifamurtide, an immunomodulator acting on TAMs, was evaluated on the most in vitro relevant model: 3D co-culture CH2879 model. Our results showed that it is now possible to develop 3D models that very accurately mimic what is found in vivo with the possibility of evaluating treatments specific to a tumor cell component.

Radiosensitizing Effect of PARP Inhibition on Chondrosarcoma and Chondrocyte Cells Is Dependent on Radiation LET. Biomolecules 2024; 14:1071. [PMID: 39334838 PMCID: PMC11429578 DOI: 10.3390/biom14091071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2024] [Revised: 08/14/2024] [Accepted: 08/21/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Chondrosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor that forms in bone and cartilage. The primary treatment involves surgical removal of the tumor with a margin of healthy tissue. Especially if complete surgical removal is not possible, radiation therapy and chemotherapy are used in conjunction with surgery, but with a generally low efficiency. Ongoing researches are focused on understanding the genetic and molecular basis of chondrosarcoma following high linear energy transfer (LET) irradiation, which may lead to treatments that are more effective. The goal of this study is to evaluate the differential effects of DNA damage repair inhibitors and high LET irradiation on chondrosarcoma versus chondrocyte cells and the LET-dependency of the effects. Two chondrosarcoma cell lines with different IDH mutation status and one chondrocyte cell line were exposed to low LET (X-ray) and high LET (carbon ion) irradiation in combination with an Olaparib PARP inhibitor. Cell survival and DNA repair mechanisms were investigated. High LET irradiation drastically reduced cell survival, with a biological efficiency three times that of low LET. Olaparib significantly inhibited PARylation in all the tested cells. A significant reduction in cell survival of both chondrosarcoma and chondrocyte cells was observed following the treatment combining Olaparib and X-ray. PARP inhibition induced an increase in PARP-1 expression and a reduced effect on the cell survival of WT IDH chondrosarcoma cells. No radiosensitizing effect was observed in cells exposed to Olaparib paired with high LET irradiation. NHEJ was activated in response to high LET irradiation, neutralizing the PARP inhibition effect in both chondrosarcoma cell lines. When high LET irradiation is not available, PARP inhibition could be used in combination with low LET irradiation, with significant radiosensitizing effects on chondrosarcoma cells. Chondrocytes may be affected by the treatment combination too, showing the need to preserve normal tissues from radiation fields when this kind of treatment is suggested.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) contains considerable heterogeneity; therefore, models of the disease must also reflect the multifarious components. Compared to traditional 2D models, 3D cellular models, such as tumor spheroids, have the utility to determine the drug efficacy of potential therapeutics. Monoculture spheroids are well-known to recapitulate gene expression, cell signaling, and pathophysiological gradients of avascularized tumors. However, they fail to mimic the stromal cell influence present in CRC, which is known to perturb drug efficacy and is associated with metastatic, late-stage colorectal cancer. This study seeks to develop a cocultured spheroid model using carcinoma and noncancerous fibroblast cells. We characterized the proteomic profile of cocultured spheroids in comparison to monocultured spheroids using data-independent acquisition with gas-phase fractionation. Specifically, we determined that proteomic differences related to translation and mTOR signaling are significantly increased in cocultured spheroids compared to monocultured spheroids. Proteins related to fibroblast function, such as exocytosis of coated vesicles and secretion of growth factors, were significantly differentially expressed in the cocultured spheroids. Finally, we compared the proteomic profiles of both the monocultured and cocultured spheroids against a publicly available data set derived from solid CRC tumors. We found that the proteome of the cocultured spheroids more closely resembles that of the patient samples, indicating their potential as tumor mimics.

Results From a Three-dimensional Spheroid Cell Model. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2023; 481:608-619. [PMID: 36729612 PMCID: PMC9928768 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000002483] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chondrosarcomas are well known for their resistance to conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment regimens, which is particularly detrimental in patients who have unresectable tumors. Recently, inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) by talazoparib was shown to sensitize chondrosarcoma cell lines to chemotherapy (temozolomide) or radiotherapy, irrespective of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status. Because two-dimensionally grown cell lines have limitations and may not accurately represent the clinical response to drug treatment, we aimed to use a more representative three-dimensional alginate spheroid chondrosarcoma model. It is important to test therapeutic agents in vitro before testing them in animals or humans; therefore, we aimed to determine the effectiveness of a PARP inhibitor in reducing the viability of chondrosarcoma spheroids. Using a more stringent, complex in vitro model refines future therapeutic options for further investigation in animal models, increasing efficiency, reducing unnecessary animal use, and saving time and cost. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Does talazoparib treatment slow or inhibit the growth of chondrosarcoma spheroids, and does an increased treatment duration change the drug's effect? (2) Does talazoparib work in synergy with temozolomide treatment to reduce the viability of chondrosarcoma spheroids? (3) Does talazoparib work in synergy with radiotherapy treatment to reduce the viability of chondrosarcoma spheroids? METHODS Three representative conventional chondrosarcoma cell lines (CH2879 [IDH wildtype], JJ012 [IDH1 mutant], and SW1353 [IDH2 mutant]) were cultured as alginate spheroids and treated with talazoparib (0.001 to 10 µM), temozolomide (0.01 to 100 µM), or combinations of these drugs for 3, 7, and 14 days, representing different stages of spheroid growth. The cell lines were selected to represent a variety of IDH mutation statuses and were previously validated in spheroid culturing. Temozolomide was chosen because of its previous success when combined with PARP inhibitors, dissimilar to other commonly used chemotherapies. The effect on spheroid viability was assessed using three cell viability assays. Additionally, spheroid count, morphology, proliferation, and apoptosis were assessed. The effect of talazoparib (5 to 10 nM) combined with ƴ-radiation applied using a 137 C source (0 to 6 Gy) was assessed as surviving fractions by counting the number of spheroids (three). The therapeutic synergy of low-concentration talazoparib (5 to 10 nM) with temozolomide or radiotherapy was determined by calculating Excess over Bliss scores. RESULTS Talazoparib treatment reduced the spheroid viability of all three cell lines after 14 days (IC 50 ± SD of CH2879: 0.1 ± 0.03 µM, fold change: 220; JJ012: 12 ± 1.4 µM, fold change: 4.8; and SW1353: 1.0 ± 0.2 µM, fold change: 154), compared with 3-day treatments of mature spheroids. After 14 days of treatment, the Excess over Bliss scores for 100 µM temozolomide and talazoparib indicated synergistic efficacy (Excess over Bliss scores: CH2879 59% [lower 95% CI 52%], JJ012 18% [lower 95% CI 8%], and SW1353 55% [lower 95% CI 25%]) of this combination treatment. A stable synergistic effect of talazoparib and radiotherapy was present only in JJ012 spheroids at a 4Gƴ radiation dose (Excess over Bliss score: 22% [lower 95% CI 6%]). CONCLUSION In our study, long-term PARP inhibition was more effective than short-term treatment, and only one of the three chondrosarcoma spheroid lines was sensitive to combined PARP inhibition and radiotherapy. These findings suggest subsequent animal studies should focus on long-term PARP inhibition, and temozolomide combined with talazoparib has a higher chance of success than combination with radiotherapy. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Combination treatment of talazoparib and temozolomide was effective in reducing the viability of chondrosarcoma spheroids and spheroid growth, regardless of IDH mutation status, providing rationale to replicate this treatment combination in an animal chondrosarcoma model.

Abstract
Chondrosarcomas are primary cancers of cartilaginous tissue and capable of alteration to highly aggressive, metastatic, and treatment-refractory states, leading to a poor prognosis with a five-year survival rate at 11 months for dedifferentiated subtype. At present, the surgical resection of chondrosarcoma is the only effective treatment, and no other treatment options including targeted therapies, conventional chemotherapies, or immunotherapies are available for these patients. Here, we identify a signal pathway way involving EZH2/SULF1/cMET axis that contributes to malignancy of chondrosarcoma and provides a potential therapeutic option for the disease. A non-biased chromatin immunoprecipitation sequence, cDNA microarray analysis, and validation of chondrosarcoma cell lines identified sulfatase 1 (SULF1) as the top EZH2-targeted gene to regulate chondrosarcoma progression. Overexpressed EZH2 resulted in downregulation of SULF1 in chondrosarcoma cell lines, which in turn activated cMET pathway. Pharmaceutical inhibition of cMET or genetically silenced cMET pathway significantly retards the chondrosarcoma growth and extends mice survival. The regulation of EZH2/SULF1/cMET axis were further validated in patient samples with chondrosarcoma. The results not only established a signal pathway promoting malignancy of chondrosarcoma but also provided a therapeutic potential for further development of effective target therapy to treat chondrosarcoma.

Abstract
Bone sarcomas are rare tumour entities that arise from the mesenchyme most of which are highly heterogeneous at the cellular, genetic and epigenetic levels. The three main types are osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and chondrosarcoma. These oncological entities are characterised by high morbidity and mortality and an absence of significant therapeutic improvement in the last four decades. In the field of oncology, in vitro cultures of cancer cells have been extensively used for drug screening unfortunately with limited success. Indeed, despite the massive knowledge acquired from conventional 2D culture methods, scientific community has been challenged by the loss of efficacy of drugs when moved to clinical trials. The recent explosion of new 3D culture methods is paving the way to more relevant in vitro models mimicking the in vivo tumour environment (e.g. bone structure) with biological responses close to the in vivo context. The present review gives a brief overview of the latest advances of the 3D culture methods used for studying primary bone sarcomas.

Abstract
Chondrosarcoma (CHS) is the second most common primary malignant bone sarcoma. Overall survival and prognosis of this tumor are various and often extreme, depending on histological grade and tumor subtype. CHS treatment is difficult, and surgery remains still the gold standard due to the resistance of this tumor to other therapeutic options. Considering the role of differentiation of CHS subtypes and the need to develop new treatment strategies, in this review, we introduced a multidisciplinary characterization of CHS from its pathology to therapies. We described the morphology of each subtype with the role of immunohistochemical markers in diagnostics of CHS. We also summarized the most frequently mutated genes and genome regions with altered pathways involved in the pathology of this tumor. Subsequently, we discussed imaging methods and the role of currently used therapies, including surgery and the limitations of chemo and radiotherapy. Finally, in this review, we presented novel targeted therapies, including those at ongoing clinical trials, which can be a potential future target in designing new therapeutics for patients with CHS.

Abstract
Mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1 or IDH2) genes are common in enchondromas and chondrosarcomas, and lead to elevated levels of the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate causing widespread changes in the epigenetic landscape of these tumors. With the use of a DNA methylation array, we explored whether the methylome is altered upon progression from IDH mutant enchondroma towards high-grade chondrosarcoma. High-grade tumors show an overall increase in the number of highly methylated genes, indicating that remodeling of the methylome is associated with tumor progression. Therefore, an epigenetics compound screen was performed in five chondrosarcoma cell lines to therapeutically explore these underlying epigenetic vulnerabilities. Chondrosarcomas demonstrated high sensitivity to histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition in both 2D and 3D in vitro models, independent of the IDH mutation status or the chondrosarcoma subtype. siRNA knockdown and RNA expression data showed that chondrosarcomas rely on the expression of multiple HDACs, especially class I subtypes. Furthermore, class I HDAC inhibition sensitized chondrosarcoma to glutaminolysis and Bcl-2 family member inhibitors, suggesting that HDACs define the metabolic state and apoptotic threshold in chondrosarcoma. Taken together, HDAC inhibition may represent a promising targeted therapeutic strategy for chondrosarcoma patients, either as monotherapy or as part of combination treatment regimens.
