Abstract

Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is the most fatal form of lung cancer. Intratumoral heterogeneity, marked by neuroendocrine (NE) and non-neuroendocrine (non-NE) cell states, defines SCLC, but the cell-extrinsic drivers of SCLC plasticity are poorly understood. To map the landscape of SCLC tumor microenvironment (TME), we apply spatially resolved transcriptomics and quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics to metastatic SCLC tumors obtained via rapid autopsy. The phenotype and overall composition of non-malignant cells in the TME exhibit substantial variability, closely mirroring the tumor phenotype, suggesting TME-driven reprogramming of NE cell states. We identify cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) as a crucial element of SCLC TME heterogeneity, contributing to immune exclusion, and predicting exceptionally poor prognosis. Our work provides a comprehensive map of SCLC tumor and TME ecosystems, emphasizing their pivotal role in SCLC's adaptable nature, opening possibilities for reprogramming the TME-tumor communications that shape SCLC tumor states.

摘要

小细胞肺癌(SCLC)是最致命的肺癌形式。肿瘤内异质性,以神经内分泌(NE)和非神经内分泌(非-NE)细胞状态为特征,定义了 SCLC,但 SCLC 可塑性的细胞外在驱动因素知之甚少。为了绘制 SCLC 肿瘤微环境(TME)的图谱,我们应用空间分辨转录组学和基于定量质谱的蛋白质组学对通过快速尸检获得的转移性 SCLC 肿瘤进行分析。TME 中非恶性细胞的表型和整体组成表现出很大的可变性,与肿瘤表型密切相关,表明 TME 驱动的 NE 细胞状态的重编程。我们将癌症相关成纤维细胞(CAF)鉴定为 SCLC TME 异质性的关键因素,有助于免疫排斥,并预测预后极差。我们的工作提供了 SCLC 肿瘤和 TME 生态系统的综合图谱,强调了它们在 SCLC 适应性中的关键作用,为重塑塑造 SCLC 肿瘤状态的 TME-肿瘤通讯开辟了可能性。
