Description
The concept of age-dependent host control of cancer development raises the natural question of how these effects manifest across the host tissue/organ types with which a tumor interacts, one important component of which is the aging immune system. To investigate this, changes in the spleen, an immune nexus in the mouse, was examined for its age-dependent interactive influence on the carcinogenesis process. The model is the C57BL/6 male mice (adolescent, young adult, middle-aged, and old or 68, 143, 551 and 736 days old respectively) with and without a syngeneic murine tumor implant. Through global transcriptome analysis, immune-related functions were found to be key regulators in the spleen associated with tumor progression as a function of age with CD2, CD3, CCL19, and CCL5 being the key molecules involved. Surprisingly, other than CCL5, all key factors and immune-related functions were not active in spleens from non-tumor bearing old mice. Our findings of age-dependent tumor-spleen signaling interaction suggest the existence of a global role of the aging host in carcinogenesis. Suggested is a new avenue for therapeutic improvement that capitalizes on the pervasive role of host aging in dictating the course of this disease.

Description
Dysregulated lipid metabolism is an oncogenic mechanism that leads to increased de novo fatty acid biosynthesis via elevated expression of fatty acid synthase (FASN) in cancer. FASN catalyzes biosynthesis of (C16) palmitic acid by using Acetyl CoA, malonyl CoA and NADPH as substrates. Palmitic acid and its derivatives participate as signaling lipids andinvolved in the regulation of receptor functions associated with many biological processes. and furtherThis includes contribute formation of cell structures, and all these processes which are essential for both normal and malignant cell growth and proliferation. In this study, we investigated the biological impact of FASN inhibition in B cell Non Hodgkin Lymphoma (bNHL) cells using FASN inhibitors Cerulenin and other novel agents (TVB3166, TVB3567). Inhibition of FASN resulted in a dose dependent increase in cell death and apoptosis in the bNHL and primary tumor cells. Transcriptomic and comprehensive systems biology analysis of cerulenin, TVB3166 or TVB3567 treated bNHL cells revealed conserved activation of (TNF) immune and PI3K signaling, and inhibition of cell cycle pathways as prominent responses to FASN inhibition. Cell fractionation and western blot analysis of cCerulenin treated cells showed translocation of TNF receptor adaptor proteins (TRAF2 and RIP), docking of AKT and PI3K/p110 subunits to cell membrane and activation of PI3K/AKT pathways by phosphorylation in SUDHL2 and SUDHL4 bNHL cells, while these mechanisms were constitutively active in cerulenin treated SUDHL10 bNHL cells. Disruption of lipid raft formation by methyl cyclodextrin inhibited PI3K signaling and downregulated FASN expression in SUDHL10 cells. Subsequently, we observed that combination of FASN (cerulenin) and PI3K (Buparlisib) inhibitors resulted in synergistic cell death in bNHL cell lines and increased apoptosis accompanied with down-regulation of FASN expression in bNHL cell lines and primary cells, implicating the importance of PI3K in the regulation of lipid metabolism. Further mass spectrometric evaluation of cerulenin and Buparlisib treated DLBCL cells fed with C14C glucose, synergistically decreased the biosynthesis of palmitic acid and its derivatives compared to single agent treatments. Our conclusions from these investigations suggest that simultaneous blocking of PI3K and FASN is likely to exert stronger inhibition of lipid metabolism and enhance cell death in lymphoma.

Description
Gene expression levels were determined in 3rd instar and adult Drosophila melanogaster reared during spaceflight, to elucidate the genetic and molecular mechanisms underpinning the effects of microgravity on the immune system. The goal was to validate the Drosophila model for understanding alterations of innate immune responses in humans due to spaceflight. Five containers of flies, with ten female and five male fruit flies in each container, were housed and bred on the space shuttle (average orbit altitude of 330.35 km) for 12 days and 18.5 hours, with a new generation reared in microgravity. RNA was extracted on the day of shuttle landing from whole body animals (3rd instar larvae and adults), hybridized to Drosophila 2.0 Affymetrix genome arrays, and the expression level of all genes was normalized against the gene expression level from the corresponding developmental stage animals raised on ground. Spaceflight altered the expression of larval genes involved in the maturation of plasmatocytes (macrophages) and their phagocytic response, as well as the level of constitutive expression of pattern recognition receptors and opsonins that specifically recognize bacteria, and of lysozymes, antimicrobial peptide pathway and immune stress genes, hallmarks of humoral immunity.

Description
Radiotherapy is standard of care for inoperable non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) but adenocarcinoma NSCLC respond more poorly than squamous cell NSCLC. Transforming growth factor (TGF) activity is induced by radiation and plays a recently recognized role in the DNA damage response. Here we show in murine lung tumor model that radiation activates TGF acutely and persistently and that TGF neutralizing antibody, 1D11, systemic treatment increased tumor control following either fractionated or single high dose radiation regimes. TGF dependent genes in the irradiated tumor indicated crosstalk between innate and adaptive immunity but therapeutic benefit of 1D11 in irradiated tumors in immunocompromised mice suggested that innate immune cells are more influential than the adaptive immune response. Irradiated tumors in which TGF was blocked were highly hypoxic, exhibit pronounced microvascular damage and promoted neither cancer-associated fibroblasts nor recruit bone marrow derived cells (BMDC). Tumor educated immature BMDC were significant sources of TGF and inhibiting BMDC recruitment achieved tumor growth control in response to RT comparable to TGF inhibition. Thus, radiation-induced TGF both compromises tumor control by RT and promotes reestablishment of the tumor microenvironment. Concordant with the critical role of TGF activity in RT, radiation resistant NSCLC adenocarcinomas exhibit higher TGF activity compared to squamous cell NSCLC, which suggests a rationale for using TGF inhibition to augment radiotherapy.

Description
We examined the biological effects of a potent second-generation proteasome inhibitor, ixazomib, in T-cell lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma cell lines and human xenograft models. Ixazomib resulted in time- and dose-dependent cytotoxicity and apoptosis in all cell lines (IC50s <75nM). In vivo studies via SCID tumor xenografts showed significant inhibition of tumor growth (P<0.001) with significantly improved survival (P<0.001) in Jurkat and L540 models with ixazomib-treated mice versus controls. Through global transcriptome and network analyses, ixazomib-treated Jurkat and L540 cells showed significant overlap in biological functions involved in regulation of cell cycle, chromatin modification, and DNA repair processes with a lack of conservation observed in a relatively ixazomib-resistant cell line, L428. Moreover, the predicted activation and inhibition status of tumor suppressors and oncogenes strongly favored ixazomib inhibition of tumor progression. Most notably, ixazomib down-regulated protein levels of MYC and its target genes. Additionally, chromatin immunoprecipitation showed that histone H3 acetylation affected MYC levels and cell death response to ixazomib. Furthermore, inhibition of MYC with JQ1 resulted in synergistic cell death in L428, which was confirmed utilizing MYC knockout. Collectively, ixazomib down-regulated MYC and downstream substrates in TCL and HL, while resistance appeared mediated through MYC- and CHK1-dependent mechanisms.
