Angiogenic Effect

Background: Inhibition of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/c-MET pathway, a major mediator of pancreatic stellate cell (PSC)−PC cell interactions, retards local and distant cancer progression. This study examines the use of this treatment in preventing PC progression after resection. We further investigate the postulated existence of circulating PSCs (cPSCs) as a mediator of metastatic PC. Methods: Two orthotopic PC mouse models, produced by implantation of a mixture of luciferase-tagged human pancreatic cancer cells (AsPC-1), and human PSCs were used. Model 1 mice underwent distal pancreatectomy 3-weeks post-implantation (n = 62). One-week post-resection, mice were randomised to four treatments of 8 weeks: (i) IgG, (ii) gemcitabine (G), (iii) HGF/c-MET inhibition (HiCi) and (iv) HiCi + G. Tumour burden was assessed longitudinally by bioluminescence. Circulating tumour cells and cPSCs were enriched by filtration. Tumours of Model 2 mice progressed for 8 weeks prior to the collection of primary tumour, metastases and blood for single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq). Results: HiCi treatments: (1) reduced both the risk and rate of disease progression after resection; (2) demonstrated an anti-angiogenic effect on immunohistochemistry; (3) reduced cPSC counts. cPSCs were identified using immunocytochemistry (α-smooth muscle actin+, pan-cytokeratin−, CD45−), and by specific PSC markers. scRNA-seq confirmed the existence of cPSCs and identified potential genes associated with development into cPSCs. Conclusions: This study is the first to demonstrate the efficacy of adjuvant HGF/c-Met inhibition for PC and provides the first confirmation of the existence of circulating PSCs.

Pancreatic Stellate Cell

Fibrosis within the pancreas is a key feature of chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. It has now been well demonstrated that following injury to acinar cells, pancreatic stellate cell activation, migration and proliferation is the key mediator of this process. Many cytokines and growth factors have been studied, particularly TGF-β, which appears to be the major stimulus to fibrinogenesis. There is current interest in the mechanisms of phenotypic change between the active and quiescent forms, apoptosis and the signalling pathways that may be involved. The pancreatic stellate cell is likely to play an important role in maintaining the normal extracellular matrix; we speculate that the dysregulation of this process is an important factor in chronic pancreatitis.
