- Abstract
Most cancers harbor a small population of highly tumorigenic cells known as cancer stem cells (CSCs). Because of their stem cell‐like properties and resistance to conventional therapies, CSCs are considered to be a rational target for curable cancer treatment. However, despite recent advances in CSC research, CSC‐targeted therapies are not as successful as was initially hoped. The proliferative, invasive, and drug‐resistant properties of CSCs are regulated by the tumor microenvironment associated with them, the so‐called CSC niche. Thus, targeting tumor‐promoting cellular crosstalk between CSCs and their niches is an attractive avenue for developing durable therapies. Using mouse models of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), we have demonstrated that tumor cells responding to transforming growth factor β (TGF‐β) function as drug‐resistant CSCs. The gene expression signature of TGF‐β–responding tumor cells has accelerated the identification of novel pathways that drive invasive tumor progression. Moreover, by focusing on the cytokine milieu and macrophages in the proximity of TGF‐β–responding tumor cells, we recently uncovered the molecular basis of a CSC–niche interaction that emerges during early tumor development. This review article summarizes the specialized tumor microenvironment associated with CSCs and discusses mechanisms by which malignant properties of CSCs are maintained and promoted.

- Abstract
Every year, approximately 1.2 million cases of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) are newly diagnosed worldwide. Although metastases to distant organs are often fatal complications of CRC, little information is known as to how such metastatic lesions are formed. To reveal the genetic profiles for CRC metastasis, we conducted whole‐exome RNA sequencing on CRC tumors with liver metastasis (LM) (group A, n = 12) and clinical stage‐matched larger tumors without LM (group B, n = 16). While the somatic mutation profiles were similar among the primary tumors and LM lesions in group A and the tumors in group B, the A‐to‐C nucleotide change in the context of "AAG" was only enriched in the LM regions in group A, suggesting the presence of a DNA damage process specific to metastasis. Genes already known to be associated with CRC were mutated in all groups at a similar frequency, but we detected somatic nonsynonymous mutations in a total of 707 genes in the LM regions, but not in the tumors without LM. Signaling pathways linked to such "LM‐associated" genes were overrepresented for extracellular matrix‐receptor interaction or focal adhesion. Further, fusions of the ADAP1 (ArfGAP with dual PH domain 1) were newly identified in our cohort (3 out of 28 patients), which activated ARF6, an ADAP1‐substrate. Infrequently, mutated genes may play an important role in metastasis formation of CRC. Additionally, recurrent ADAP1 fusion genes were unexpectedly discovered. As these fusions activate small GTPase, further experiments are warranted to examine their contribution to CRC carcinogenesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Résumé: Une des maladies cardiaques les plus sévères est l’insuffisance cardiaque (IC). Un facteur important à la base de l’IC est la mort des cardiomyocytes suite à un déséquilibre du métabolisme énergétique. Une meilleure compréhension des voies signalétiques à la base de ces déséquilibres aiderait donc à comprendre un des mécanismes à la base du développement de l’IC. La protéine ADAP1, reconnue pour être abondante au cerveau, est également présente dans d’autres organes. ADAP1 possède un domaine ArfGAP capable d’inactiver les protéines de la famille Arf et deux domaines PH de liaison aux phosphatidylinositols. ADAP1 est connue pour changer de localisation intracellulaire par l’action de facteurs de croissance. Son action entraîne l’ouverture du pore de transition de perméabilité mitochondriale (mPTP), menant directement à la mort cellulaire. Il est connu que la protéine AKT est sous le contrôle des mêmes facteurs de croissance qu’ADAP1 et qu'elle contrôle également l'ouverture des mPTPs. Nous avons émis l’hypothèse que dans les cardiomyocytes, ADAP1 transloque vers les mitochondries avec un effet conjoint d’AKT et que ce changement de localisation entraîne la mort cellulaire en stimulant l’ouverture des mPTPs. Afin de vérifier cette hypothèse, plusieurs expérimentations ont eu lieu. Tout d’abord, un immunobuvardage et une PCR quantitative ont révélé la forte expression d’ADAP1 au cœur de rat adulte. L’isolation des cellules cardiaques démontre qu’ADAP1 est majoritairement exprimée chez les cardiomyocytes. Contrairement à ce qui est rapporté chez les neurones, un immunobuvardage de fractions cellulaires a démontré que la forme humaine d’ADAP1 surexprimée est très peu localisée aux mitochondries des cardiomyocytes. Une analyse bio-informatique a permis de postuler que les sites de phosphorylation connus ADAP1 ont un grand potentiel pour être la cible d’AKT. Un essai MTT à démontrer que la double surexpression d’ADAP1 et d’un mutant constitutivement actif d’AKT (AK, One of the most severe heart disease is heart failure. An important factor in the development of this disease is cardiomyocyte death cause d by an imbalance of energy metabolism. A better understanding of the signalling pathway at the base of these imbalances would therefore help to understand the mechanisms underlying the development of this disease. The ADAP1 protein, known to be abundant in the brain, is also present in other organs. This protein, with an enzymatic domain ArfGAP capable of inactivating proteins of the Arf family and two phosphatidylinositols binding domains, is known for changing its intracellular localization by the action of growth factor. ADAP1 mitochondrial localization leads to the formation of mPTP which directly lead to cell death. It is known that the AKT protein is under the control of the same growth factors than ADAP1 and is also control the opening of the mPTPs. We hypothesized that in cardiomyocytes, ADAP1 translocates to the mitochondria with a combined effect of AKT and that this change in localization leads to cell death by stimulating the opening of mPTPs. To test this hypothesis, many experiments were conducted. First of all, an immunoblotting and a quantitative PCR demonstrated that ADAP1 has a strong expression in the heart of adult rats. The isolation of cardiac cells demonstrates that ADAP1 is predominantly expressed in cardiomyocytes. Contrary to what is reported in neurons, an immunoblotting on cellular fractions demonstrated that the overexpression of the human form of ADAP1 is not localized to mitochondria in cardiomyocytes. A bioinformatic analysis, postulated that ADAP1 known phosphorylation sites have a great potential to be the target of AKT. An MTT assay demonstrated that a dual overexpression of ADAP1 and a constitutively active mutant of AKT (AKTca) decreases the viability of infected cardiomyocytes, and this, independently of the ArfGAP domain and dependent on the presence of serum. An immunoblotting on
