However, the extrinsic signals supervising these 52 phenotypic transitions remain elusive. To assess how selected microenvironmental signals 53 control cancer-associated phenotypes along the EMT continuum, we defined a logical model 54 of the EMT cellular network that yields qualitative degrees of cell adhesions by adherens 55 junctions and focal adhesions, two features affected during EMT. The model attractors 56 recovered epithelial, mesenchymal, and hybrid phenotypes. Simulations showed that hybrid 57 phenotypes may arise through independent molecular paths involving stringent extrinsic 58 signals. Of particular interest, model predictions and their experimental validations indicated 59 that: 1) stiffening of the ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM) was a prerequisite for cells 60 overactivating FAK_SRC to upregulate SNAIL and acquire a mesenchymal phenotype, and 61 2) FAK_SRC inhibition of cell-cell contacts through the Receptor-type tyrosine-protein 62 phosphatases kappa led to acquisition of a full mesenchymal, rather than a hybrid, phenotype. 63 Altogether, these computational and experimental approaches allow assessment of critical 64 microenvironmental signals controlling hybrid EMT phenotypes and indicate that EMT 65 involves multiple molecular programs. 66 67 Statement of significance: A multi-disciplinary study sheds light on microenvironmental 68 signals controlling cancer cell plasticity along epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and 69 suggests that hybrid and mesenchymal phenotypes arise through independent molecular 70 paths. 71 72 Key words: Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition / Microenvironmental signals / Cell 73 adhesions / Computational modeling / In vitro human cell models 3 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on September 25, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

Therefore, the fight against cancer calls for a better 79 understanding of the involved cellular mechanisms. 80 81 The progression from carcinoma to metastatic cancer has been proposed to involve a shift 82 from an epithelial to a mesenchymal phenotype, in a highly plastic and dynamic process 83 referred to as Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT). During this transition, epithelial 84 cells downregulate epithelial markers, lose their connections with neighboring cells through 85 the breakdown of E-Cadherin (ECad)-mediated adherens junction (AJs), upregulate 86 mesenchymal markers and acquire a marked migratory capacity mediated by the dynamic 87 remodeling of focal adhesions (FAs). Colonization at distant sites and metastatic outgrowth 88 may require that disseminated cancer cells lose their migratory capacities and re-establish AJs 89 through a Mesenchymal to Epithelial Transition (MET). However, cancer cells are rarely 90 purely mesenchymal nor purely epithelial. They often exhibit both epithelial and 91 mesenchymal features. Cells with such hybrid phenotypes appear to reside at intermediate 92 states along the epithelial to mesenchymal continuum. Unlike mesenchymal phenotypes, 93 these hybrid phenotypes may bear multiple advantages to cancer cells, including drug 94 resistance and tumor-initiating potential (2). 95 96 The cancer-associated EMT program is hardly activated in a cell autonomous manner. 97 Indeed, the tumor microenvironment, induces EMT in carcinoma cells by releasing paracrine 98 cell-cell signaling molecules, (WNT - the NOTCH ligand DELTA), growth factors 99 (Epidermal Growth Factor - EGF, Hepatocyte Growth Factor - HGF) and inflammatory 100 signals (Interleukin-6 - IL-6, Reactive Oxygen Species – ROS, Transforming Growth Factor 101 - TGFB) (2). In addition, recent evidence suggests that direct physical interactions of tumor 102 cells with their neighbors or with the ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM) greatly affect the 103 EMT/MET program. In particular, ECM stiffening can induce EMT and promote tumor 104 invasion and metastasis (3). In contrast, the cell adhesion molecule FAT4, which 105 heterophilically interacts with its ligand on adjacent cells, prevents EMT and metastasis of 106 gastric cancer cells (4). Other cell adhesion molecules, such as Receptor-type tyrosine-protein 107 phosphatases (RPTPs) of the R2B sub-family, that display homophilic cell-cell adhesion 4 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on September 25, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

Indeed, they are 109 regulators of AJs, are frequently mutated in solid cancers and appear to display tumor 110 suppressive capabilities (5). These microenvironmental signals cooperate to induce a group of 111 EMT-inducing transcription factors (EMT-TFs), including the zinc-finger proteins SNAIL 112 (SNAIL, SLUG) and the E-box-binding protein ZEB1. These EMT-TFs regulate each other 113 and, in different combinations, control the expression of genes associated with the epithelial 114 and mesenchymal phenotypes, respectively (2). However, it remains unclear which 115 combinations of external signals can stabilize carcinoma cells into hybrid phenotypes. 116 The complexity of the molecular networks involved in EMT has prompted numerous 117 modeling studies, recently reviewed in (6). Ordinary differential equation models focused on 118 core regulatory circuitries, and demonstrated the existence of stable, hybrid phenotypes (7,8). 119 In contrast to these continuous models, discrete logical models were developed that 120 encompass numerous players and signaling pathways (9–12). Steinway et al.’s model was 121 built around the TGFB pathway in the context of hepatocellular carcinoma, hybrid 122 phenotypes being obtained through model perturbations (10).

The standard treatment includes cytoreduction surgery followed by chemotherapy. Unfortunately, in most cases, after treatment, cancer develops drug resistance. Decreased expression and/or activity of protein phosphatases leads to increased signal transduction and development of drug resistance in cancer cells. Methods: Using sensitive (W1, A2780) and resistant ovarian cancer cell lines, the expression of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Receptor Type K (PTPRK) was performed at the mRNA (real‐time PCR analysis) and protein level (Western blot, immunofluorescence analysis). The protein expression in ovarian cancer tissues was determined by immunohistochemistry.

Herein, we present single-cell tran- scriptome profiling of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent histological lung cancer type diagnosed at stage IV in over 40% of all cases. From 208,506 cells populating the normal tissues or early to metastatic stage cancer in 44 patients, we identify a cancer cell subtype deviating from the normal differentiation trajectory and dominating the metastatic stage. In all stages, the stromal and immune cell dynamics reveal ontological and functional changes that create a pro-tumoral and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Normal resident myeloid cell populations are gradually replaced with monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells, along with T-cell exhaustion. This extensive single-cell analysis enhances our understanding of molecular and cellular dynamics in metastatic lung cancer and reveals potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets in cancer-microenvironment interactions. 1 Samsung Genome Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul 06351, Korea.

Recent whole-exome sequencing of human cancer genomes reveals that many PTPs are frequently mutated in a variety of cancers. Among these mutated PTPs, PTP receptor T (PTPRT) appears to be the most frequently mutated PTP in human cancers. Beside PTPN11, which functions as an oncogene in leukemia, genetic and functional studies indicate that most of mutant PTPs are tumor suppressor genes. Identification of the substrates and corresponding kinases of the mutant PTPs may provide novel therapeutic targets for cancers harboring these mutant PTPs.

J. Leenders2 and Wiljan J. A. J. Hendriks1* Abstract The infiltrative behavior of diffuse gliomas severely reduces therapeutic potential of surgical resection and radiotherapy, and urges for the identification of new drug-targets affecting glioma growth and migration. To address the potential role of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), we performed mRNA expression profiling for 91 of the 109 known human PTP genes on a series of clinical diffuse glioma samples of different grades and compared our findings with in silico knowledge from REMBRANDT and TCGA databases. Overall PTP family expression levels appeared independent of characteristic genetic aberrations associated with lower grade or high grade gliomas. Notably, seven PTP genes (DUSP26, MTMR4, PTEN, PTPRM, PTPRN2, PTPRT and PTPRZ1) were differentially expressed between grade II-III gliomas and (grade IV) glioblastomas. For DUSP26, PTEN, PTPRM and PTPRT, lower expression levels correlated with poor prognosis, and overexpression of DUSP26 or PTPRT in E98 glioblastoma cells reduced tumorigenicity. Our study represents the first in-depth analysis of PTP family expression in diffuse glioma subtypes and warrants further investigations into PTP-dependent signaling events as new entry points for improved therapy.

  • Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase PTPN3 Inhibits Lung Cancer Cell Proliferation and Migration by Promoting EGFR Endocytic Degradation
    Oncogene (2015) 34, 3791–3803 © 2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/15 www.nature.com/onc ORIGINAL ARTICLE Protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN3 inhibits lung cancer cell proliferation and migration by promoting EGFR endocytic degradation M-Y Li1,2, P-L Lai1, Y-T Chou3, A-P Chi1, Y-Z Mi1, K-H Khoo1,2, G-D Chang2, C-W Wu3, T-C Meng1,2 and G-C Chen1,2 Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) regulates multiple signaling cascades essential for cell proliferation, growth and differentiation. Using a genetic approach, we found that Drosophila FERM and PDZ domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase, dPtpmeg, negatively regulates border cell migration and inhibits the EGFR/Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway during wing morphogenesis. We further identified EGFR pathway substrate 15 (Eps15) as a target of dPtpmeg and its human homolog PTPN3. Eps15 is a scaffolding adaptor protein known to be involved in EGFR endocytosis and trafficking. Interestingly, PTPN3-mediated tyrosine dephosphorylation of Eps15 promotes EGFR for lipid raft-mediated endocytosis and lysosomal degradation. PTPN3 and the Eps15 tyrosine phosphorylation-deficient mutant suppress non-small-cell lung cancer cell growth and migration in vitro and reduce lung tumor xenograft growth in vivo. Moreover, depletion of PTPN3 impairs the degradation of EGFR and enhances proliferation and tumorigenicity of lung cancer cells. Taken together, these results indicate that PTPN3 may act as a tumor suppressor in lung cancer through its modulation of EGFR signaling.

The receptor-linked protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs) receive cues from the extracellular environment and are well placed to influence cell signaling. However, the direct events downstream of these receptors have been challenging to resolve. We report here that the homophilic receptor PTPRK is stabilized at cell-cell contacts in epithelial cells. By combining interaction studies, quantitative tyrosine phosphoproteomics, proximity labeling and dephosphorylation assays we identify high confidence PTPRK substrates. PTPRK directly and selectively dephosphorylates at least five substrates, including Afadin, PARD3 and d-catenin family members, which are all important cell-cell adhesion regulators. In line with this, loss of PTPRK phosphatase

Conversely, constitutive expression of active using high-throughput sequencing revealed several phosphatases AKT leads to increased proliferation and enhanced Th1/Th2 cy- that regulate CD4 T-cell differentiation. We concentrated on two lipid tokine production (12). phosphatases, the myotubularin-related protein (MTMR)9 and -7. The amount of PI[3,4,5]P3 and the level of AKT activation are Silencing MTMR9 by shRNA or siRNA resulted in enhanced T-helper tightly controlled by several mechanisms, including breakdown of (Th)1 differentiation and increased Th1 protein kinase B (PKB)/AKT PI[3,4,5]P3, down-regulation of the amount and activity of PI3K, phosphorylation while silencing MTMR7 caused increased Th2 and and the dephosphorylation of AKT (13). PTEN is a major negative Th17 differentiation and increased AKT phosphorylation in these regulator of PI[3,4,5]P3. It removes the 3-phosphate from the cells.

  • DDIAS Promotes STAT3 Activation by Preventing STAT3 Recruitment To
    Im et al. Oncogenesis (2020)9:1 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41389-019-0187-2 Oncogenesis ARTICLE Open Access DDIAS promotes STAT3 activation by preventing STAT3 recruitment to PTPRM in lung cancer cells Joo-Young Im 1,Bo-KyungKim 1,Kang-WooLee2, So-Young Chun1, Mi-Jung Kang1 and Misun Won1,3 Abstract DNA damage-induced apoptosis suppressor (DDIAS) regulates cancer cell survival. Here we investigated the involvement of DDIAS in IL-6–mediated signaling to understand the mechanism underlying the role of DDIAS in lung cancer malignancy. We showed that DDIAS promotes tyrosine phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), which is constitutively activated in malignant cancers. Interestingly, siRNA protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) library screening revealed protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor mu (PTPRM) as a novel STAT3 PTP. PTPRM knockdown rescued the DDIAS-knockdown-mediated decrease in STAT3 Y705 phosphorylation in the presence of IL-6. However, PTPRM overexpression decreased STAT3 Y705 phosphorylation. Moreover, endogenous PTPRM interacted with endogenous STAT3 for dephosphorylation at Y705 following IL-6 treatment. As expected, PTPRM bound to wild-type STAT3 but not the STAT3 Y705F mutant. PTPRM dephosphorylated STAT3 in the absence of DDIAS, suggesting that DDIAS hampers PTPRM/STAT3 interaction. In fact, DDIAS bound to the STAT3 transactivation domain (TAD), which competes with PTPRM to recruit STAT3 for dephosphorylation. Thus we show that DDIAS prevents PTPRM/STAT3 binding and blocks STAT3 Y705 dephosphorylation, thereby sustaining STAT3 activation in lung cancer. DDIAS expression strongly correlates with STAT3 phosphorylation in human lung cancer cell lines and tissues. Thus DDIAS may be considered as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target in malignant lung cancer cells with aberrant STAT3 activation.
