Abstract

HIV-associated epidemic Kaposi sarcoma (EpKS) remains one of the most prevalent cancers in sub-Saharan Africa despite the widespread uptake of anti-retroviral therapy and HIV-1 suppression. In an effort to define potential therapeutic targets against KS tumors, we analyzed previously published KS bulk tumor transcriptomics to identify cell surface biomarkers. In addition to upregulated gene expression (>6-fold) in the EpKS tumor microenvironment, biomarkers were selected for correlation with KSHV latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA) expression. The cell surface glycoprotein genes identified were KDR, FLT4, ADAM12, UNC5A, ZP2, and OX40, as well as the endothelial lineage determinants Prox-1 and CD34. Each protein was evaluated for its expression and co-localization with KSHV LANA using multi-color immunofluorescence in KS tissues, KSHV-infected L1T2 cells, uninfected TIVE cells, and murine L1T2 tumor xenografts. Five surface glycoproteins (KDR, FLT4, UNC5A, ADAM12, and CD34) were associated with LANA-positive cells but were also detected in uninfected cells in the KS microenvironment. L1T2 cultures showed evidence of only FLT4, KDR, and UNC5A, whereas mouse L1T2 xenografts recapitulated human KS cell surface expression profiles, with the exception of CD34 and Prox-1. In KS tumors, most LANA-positive cells co-expressed markers of vascular as well as lymphatic endothelial lineages, suggesting KS-associated dedifferentiation to a more mesenchymal/progenitor phenotype.

摘要

尽管抗逆转录病毒疗法已广泛应用且HIV-1得到抑制,但与HIV相关的流行性卡波西肉瘤(EpKS)仍是撒哈拉以南非洲最常见的癌症之一。为了确定针对卡波西肉瘤肿瘤的潜在治疗靶点,我们分析了先前发表的卡波西肉瘤肿瘤整体转录组学数据以识别细胞表面生物标志物。除了EpKS肿瘤微环境中基因表达上调(>6倍)外,还选择了与卡波西肉瘤疱疹病毒(KSHV)潜伏相关核抗原(LANA)表达相关的生物标志物。鉴定出的细胞表面糖蛋白基因有KDR、FLT4、ADAM12、UNC5A、ZP2和OX40,以及内皮谱系决定因子Prox-1和CD34。使用多色免疫荧光在卡波西肉瘤组织、KSHV感染的L1T2细胞、未感染的TIVE细胞和小鼠L1T2肿瘤异种移植中评估了每种蛋白质的表达及其与KSHV LANA的共定位情况。五种表面糖蛋白(KDR、FLT4、UNC5A、ADAM12和CD34)与LANA阳性细胞相关,但在卡波西肉瘤微环境的未感染细胞中也能检测到。L1T2培养物仅显示有FLT4、KDR和UNC5A,而小鼠L1T2异种移植再现了人类卡波西肉瘤细胞表面表达谱,但CD34和Prox-1除外。在卡波西肉瘤肿瘤中,大多数LANA阳性细胞共表达血管和淋巴管内皮谱系的标志物,这表明卡波西肉瘤相关的去分化为更具间充质/祖细胞表型。
