NEWS

To extend Pink October, breast cancer awareness month, here are the interviews with Prof. Adriaenssens and Dr. Lagadec, of the “Cellular Plasticity and Cancer” from Canther UMR, broadcast on Radio Campus Lille, on Wednesday October 14, exposing their research fields and demonstrating their efforts and commitments in research against these diseases.
Prof. Adriaenssens interview:
Dr. Lagadec interview:
Our team joins researchers, teacher-researchers, and clinicians alongside technicians, students, and post-doctoral fellows with a single goal: decipher the molecular mechanisms of the plasticity of cancer cells governing resistance to cancer therapies of breast and pediatric gliomas.
Our project combines the complementary and recognized skills of the team members, in particular studies of cell signaling and reprogramming, translational study models, 3D culture models, organs-on-chip and 4D microfluidics, single-cell omics approaches and artificial intelligence in oncogenomics. In addition to local interactions with various Lille teams, the team has developed national and international interdisciplinary collaborations.
Through this fundamental and translational research, our final objective is to discover new markers and/or therapeutic targets and to propose innovative therapeutic strategies for the treatment of breast cancer and gliomas in children.

Our project is based on two models, breast cancer and pediatric brain tumors.
Breast cancer cells plasticity and metastasis
One of the approaches developed by our team is the study of the molecular mechanisms involved in cell reprogramming that can be targeted to improve the effectiveness of treatments. We were thus able to highlight the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines, released after radiotherapy, in the reprogramming of breast non cancer stem cells into cancer stem cells (CSCs). Thus, neutralization of these cytokines reduces the post-treatment CSC enrichment and prolongs the lifespan in a mouse model. In parallel, we demonstrated that the expression of cytokines and their receptors could be used as predictive markers of a response to radiotherapy in a cohort of 10,000 patients.
We are currently interested in the epigenetic mechanisms involved in the re-expression of “stemness” proteins and in the implication of the phenotypic reprogramming in tumor dormancy and metastatic development, in collaboration with physicists from IEMN and LIMMS. We will also use home-made new molecular tools, cellular and animal models to monitor and to characterize CSCs and the reprogramming process. For example, we have established persistent triple negative breast cancer cell lines after treatment with chemotherapeutical agents in order to better understand the behaviors of persistent cancer cells during tumor dormancy and metastatic development. In addition, we have combined C3(1)Tag transgenic mice, reproducing breast tumorigenesis, with transgenic mice expressing the CSC marker s-SHIP fused with GFP, in order to isolate and characterize stem cells during breast tumorigenesis and to dissect molecular mechanisms involved in the control of stemness, cell phenotype plasticity and tumor resistance to treatments.
In addition to these aspects, our team is a pioneer in the demonstration of the role of NGF (Nerve Growth Factor) and its precursor, proNGF in breast cancer development. Our recognized expertise in the field of membrane receptors and their downstream signaling pathways has enabled us to demonstrate recently that NGF induces the formation of TrkA/CD44 receptor complexes, while proNGF induces the formation of TrkA/EphA2 complexes. Concomitant inhibition of TrkA and EphA2 has been shown to decrease cerebral metastatic formation. Our goal is therefore to study the underlying mechanisms of receptor complexes formation and their downstream signaling pathways in order to target them to reduce/prevent metastasis.
We have been the first to demonstrate the role and mechanisms of action of the long non-coding RNA H19, and of the miR-675 it generates, in breast cancer. Currently, we are interested in different mechanisms of action of lncRNA such as the “miRNA sponge” effect, the “scaffold” effect of protein complex and the targeting of chromatin-modifying complex on DNA. In addition, we are studying the role of H19 and its miR in the various phenotypes associated with the emergence and development of breast cancer, including cell proliferation, survival, migration, invasion, EMT and metastasis formation. These studies are carried out in breast cancer cell lines in vitro as well as the C3(1)Tag murine tumorigenesis model and in zebrafish model.
Epigenetics and resistance to treatments for pediatric gliomas
Resistance to classical treatments and the associated mechanisms are also major issues in the management of pediatric diffuse gliomas located in the brainstem. However, the very particular profile and the dramatic prognosis of these tumors require their own investigation. In this context, and based on the shared molecular tools and knowledge in our team, we are carrying out work specifically on the resistance to treatments of DIPG (Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma), and this through 3 complementary in vitro approaches: the study of the H3.3K27M mutation impact on resistance to treatments, the screening of compounds without a priori / repositioning of drugs, and the development of a “DIPG on a chip” microfluidic model.
In parallel with these in vitro approaches, we are developping innovative transgenic zebrafish models in this topic. The zebrafish is a vertebrate model increasingly used in biomedical research because of the ease and low costs of its breeding, the wide possibilities of manipulation of its genome and the relative transparency of its embryo which allows imaging with the cellular resolution. Using genome editing and transgenesis, the team generates zebrafish lines with genetic and epigenetic alterations found in human cancers. These models allow us to better understand the mechanisms involved in tumorigenesis, including pediatric gliomas, and are used to study the effectiveness of different therapeutic approaches. Xenotransplantation of human tumor cells into two-day zebrafish embryos also allows us to analyze tumor formation, its evolution and to assess the effect of anticancer molecules in vivo.
Inference, interrogation and engineering of regulatory networksn
In addition to these different experimental biology approaches, the team includes a bioinformatics group the objective of which is to study regulatory networks (signaling pathways, transcriptional and metabolic regulation), an approach that has become of major interest for the understanding and management of cancers. Our aim here is to rationalize the study of regulatory networks through a predictive cycle, called “I3-BioNet”, composed of three modules: inference, interrogation, genomic and metabolic engineering of regulatory networks. We are thus developing multidisciplinary projects applied to the integrative analysis of regulatory networks (signaling pathways, transcriptional regulatory pathways) controlling differentiation, heterogeneity of the disease, cell plasticity and reprogramming. Our project benefits from funding of european and national research foundations, and the tools and models developed are systematically made available to the scientific community.
