   Most forms of cancer not related to level of
    development of countries, but to the lifestyle
   8.1million new cases (plus skin cancer) in 1990, 10
    million nowadays, 25% of deaths in western countries
    (2nd after circulatroy disease)
   Colorectal fourth commonest, but second deadliest in
    EU – survival depends on country
   Men more affected than women
   Deprivation decreases mortality, but not incidence
   Heritated or aquired Mutations
    ◦ familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP): SNP in APC-gene
    ◦ chromosome 18 loss of heterozygosity (LOH)
    ◦ Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC)
      common polymorphisms in digestion-enzymes

   Carcinogens        MeIQ, MeIQx, and PhIP, X-ray, Radon, ...


   Viruses      – but no virus has been discovered for colorectal
    cancer yet
-   Composed of crypts
    and villis

-   constantly renewed
   They have ability of self-renewal and are
    sufficiently long-living to receive mutations
    leading to cancer

   Stem cells involved in tumors are called
    “Cancer Stem Cells” (CSC)

   2 models of tumor development: stochastic
    and CSC

   Controls temporal and spatial regulation of
    cell growth, movement and cell survival

   Wnt genes: role in epithelial cells proliferation

   2 pathways:
    ◦ Planar: Ca2+ involved, contols cellular movement
      and polarity
    ◦ Canonical: β-catenin involved, regulates cell
      proliferation
   APC = Adenomatous
    polyposis coli protein

From mutation in stem cells to
          colorectal cancer


Two theories about the
origin of adenomas:

• the “bottom-up”
   model

• the “top-down” model


                         Bottom-up   Top-down
                         model       model
From mutation in stem cells to
         colorectal cancer
• Formation of
  a monocryptal
  adenoma




                  • Crypt fission leads
                    to the spread of
                    mutations

   Existing and new Non-steroidal anti-
    inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS)

   Vitamin A and D

   Small-molecule inhibitors

   Antibodies
   e.g. aspirin, sulindac and indomethacin

   Regular use reduces incidence and severity of
    various human cancer

   FAP / hereditary forms of cancer

   Effects:
    Inhibiting proliferation
    Inducing apoptosis
    Curbing cancer cell invasion

   Precise mechanism unique for each drug
   Suppression of oncogenic AP1 and Wnt
    pathways

   Vitamin D derivates interact with vitamin D
    receptors (VDR) and form a complex

   Vitamin D – VDR transcription factor complex
    binds β-catenin

   VDR triggers increase of E-cadherin ->
    relocating β-catenin to the cell membrane
   Drugs designed to disturb β-catenin – Tcf
    binding

   Experiments with single amino acid Tcf or
    β-catenin mutants -> key aa for binding

   β-catenin is a multifunctional protein

   HTS and in silico screening

   Other cofactors are also possible targets
   Culture of stem cells
    In march 2009 M. CLEVERS
    developed a method
   Lack of stem cell marker
    In 2007 M. CLEVERS found

  Incorporation into the
   fiber knob
2. Detargeting

  •   Initial fiber knob attachment to cell surface CAR
       mutation in critical CAR interacting residues

  •   Secondary interactions between the RGD motif of the
      penton and cell surface integrin
       deletion of the integrin-binding RGD motif

  • 1. WNT-Signalling and possible cures Biologie cellulaire – Prof. Dr. Jan De Mey Morgane Perdomini, Raphael Lieberherr, Zrinka Raguz, Anne Thuillier, Anne-Laure du Mesnildot, Sebastian Olényi
  • 2. 1. Theory part I. Introduction: epidemology, CSC II. Wnt pathway and the development of colon cancer III. Drug development: problems and possibilities 2. Research part I. Virus-based approach II. Validation III. Therapy design and side effects IV. Personalized therapy
  • 3. 1. Theory part I. Introduction: epidemology, CSC II. Wnt pathway and the development of colon cancer III. Drug development: problems and possibilities 2. Research part I. Virus-based approach II. Validation III. Therapy design and side effects IV. Personalized therapy
  • 4. Most forms of cancer not related to level of development of countries, but to the lifestyle  8.1million new cases (plus skin cancer) in 1990, 10 million nowadays, 25% of deaths in western countries (2nd after circulatroy disease)  Colorectal fourth commonest, but second deadliest in EU – survival depends on country  Men more affected than women  Deprivation decreases mortality, but not incidence
  • 5. Heritated or aquired Mutations ◦ familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP): SNP in APC-gene ◦ chromosome 18 loss of heterozygosity (LOH) ◦ Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) common polymorphisms in digestion-enzymes  Carcinogens MeIQ, MeIQx, and PhIP, X-ray, Radon, ...  Viruses – but no virus has been discovered for colorectal cancer yet
  • 6. - Composed of crypts and villis - constantly renewed
  • 7.
  • 8. They have ability of self-renewal and are sufficiently long-living to receive mutations leading to cancer  Stem cells involved in tumors are called “Cancer Stem Cells” (CSC)  2 models of tumor development: stochastic and CSC
  • 9. 1. Theory part I. Introduction: epidemology, CSC II. Wnt pathway and the development of colon cancer III. Drug development: problems and possibilities 2. Research part I. Virus-based approach II. Validation III. Therapy design and side effects IV. Personalized therapy
  • 10. Controls temporal and spatial regulation of cell growth, movement and cell survival  Wnt genes: role in epithelial cells proliferation  2 pathways: ◦ Planar: Ca2+ involved, contols cellular movement and polarity ◦ Canonical: β-catenin involved, regulates cell proliferation
  • 11.
  • 12. APC = Adenomatous polyposis coli protein  Negative regulator of the Wnt pathway through multiple mechanisms
  • 13.
  • 14. WT APC C- terminally truncated APC Cellular processes Effects by WT APC Effects by truncated APC Canonic Wnt signal Inhibition Activation of pathway transcription Cell adhesion Stimulation Weakening of adhesion Cell migration Stimulation Stronger stimulation Chromosomal segregation Proper segregation Dominant negative: mis- and Mitotic spindle and oritentation segregation: chromosomal orientation instability (CIN) Cell cycle progression Inhibition of cell Stimulated cell growth growth
  • 15.
  • 16. From mutation in stem cells to colorectal cancer Two theories about the origin of adenomas: • the “bottom-up” model • the “top-down” model Bottom-up Top-down model model
  • 17. From mutation in stem cells to colorectal cancer • Formation of a monocryptal adenoma • Crypt fission leads to the spread of mutations
  • 18. 1. Theory part I. Introduction: epidemology, CSC II. Wnt pathway and the development of colon cancer III. Drug development: problems and possibilities 2. Research part I. Virus-based approach II. Validation III. Therapy design and side effects IV. Personalized therapy
  • 19. Existing and new Non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS)  Vitamin A and D  Small-molecule inhibitors  Antibodies
  • 20. e.g. aspirin, sulindac and indomethacin  Regular use reduces incidence and severity of various human cancer  FAP / hereditary forms of cancer  Effects: Inhibiting proliferation Inducing apoptosis Curbing cancer cell invasion  Precise mechanism unique for each drug
  • 21.

  5. Currently, much of medical practice is based on \"standards of care\" that are determined by averaging responses across large cohorts. The theory has been that everyone should get the same care based on clinical trials. Personalized Medicine is the concept that managing a patient's health should be based on the individual patient's specific characteristics, including age, gender, height/weight, diet, environment, etc. Recent developments in genetic testing allow the development of \"Genomic Personalized Medicine\" and Predictive Medicine, which is the combination of comprehensive genetic testing with proactive, personalized preventive medicine.In the following slides, potential research- and product-targets for such a holistic approach are marked in red. We would suggest that a pharma company tries to develop (or to license) for each of these targets a cure and markets them together under one brand name, developing and signalling an expertise in the market.
  6. Familial adenomatouspolyposis (FAP) is an inherited condition in which numerous polyps form mainly in the epithelium of the large intestine. While these polyps start out benign, malignant transformation into colon cancer occurs when not treated.
  7. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of inflammatory conditions of the large intestine and small intestine. The major types of IBD are Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. It significantly increases, as all inflammations, the risk of cancer. There are different medicaments in the field for this, and better to be developed.http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20080255069First, inhaled or swallowed tobacco smoke transports carcinogens to the colon. Second, tobacco use seems to increase polyp size.In general, the bigger the polyp, the greater the chance it will become cancerous. Studies indicate that 12% of fatal colorectal cancers may be attributable to smoking.BeerA study published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology found that people who drank more than one beer a day were more likely to develop colorectal cancer than non-beer drinkers. Another study (published in the journal Gut) provided more details, adding that drinking beer didn't impact colon cancer risk, but could increase rectal cancer risk. The researchers determined that drinking one beer a day more than doubled the risk of developing rectal cancer.SpiritsIf you like spirits, you're not going to like this. And if you don't know what spirits are, they're drinks like gin, bourbon, and vodka. A study published in the journal Gut found that drinking two glasses of spirits a day more than doubled the risk of developing rectal cancer. Think doubling your risk is bad? Researchers at Stony Brook University determined that drinking nine or more servings of spirits a week on a regular basis tripled colon cancer risk.WineThe same researchers who reported that spirits could triple colon cancer risk, also determined that drinking a glass or two of wine each week could decrease colon cancer risk by as much as 60%. Researchers at Stony Brook University in New York have released findings of a study that indicates people who drink three or more glasses of red wine a week reduce the chances that they will develop colon cancerDiets high in fat and cholesterol (especially from animal sources) have been linked to an increased risk of colon cancer. Low-fiber diets have also been associated with increased risk, but the research isn't as clear. This recommendation is independent of weight. Even if you can eat steak and liver at every meal and stay trim, you're still increasing your risk of developing colon cancer by virtue of what you're eating. A balanced diet seems to be the way to go.Since diabetics have an increased risk of developing colon cancer, it's also a good idea to avoid food choices that are known to lead to diabetes. In general, these include high-glycemic foods like sugary snacks and refined carbohydrates, often referred to as \"white\" foods. Examples include white sugar, white rice, white bread, and white pasta. Less-processed versions like brown rice, whole-grain bread, and wheat pasta are healthy substitutes.Research has shown that a sedentary lifestyle contributes to colon cancer development.Resveratrol induces cell death in colorectal cancer cells by a novel pathway involving lysosomal cathepsin DNicol F.

  8. The finding that patients with colorectal cancer who do not respond to treatment with panitumumab ( Vectibix, Amgen) and cetuximab ( Erbitux, Bristol-Myers Squibb) have tumors with KRAS mutations is a practice-changing discovery, says Jose Baselga, MD, from Valld'Hebron University Hospital, in Barcelona, Spain. Both drugs are antibodies that inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and they are expensive. \"Patients with KRAS mutations have zero response to these drugs,\" Dr. Baselga told Medscape Oncology. Not using these expensive products in such patients would save money, while restricting the use of these drugs to patients who have tumors without KRAS mutations \"enriches the likelihood that these patients will respond to therapy,\" he said.When presenting his doctoral thesis, Murdani said that the nuclear factor NF-kB was found in 73.5 percent of cases *72 patients* while enzyme COX-2 was present in almost 50 percent of cases *48 patients*. Both markers, he added, were significantly higher in cancer tissues than when compared with normal mucosa.As inflammation is the common cause of nonhereditary colorectal cancer in Indonesia, the use of anti-inflammatory medications such as aspirin during treatment could assist patients, a study has found.Participating in regular group exercise classes can help women with early breast cancer feel better, both physically and mentally, while they're undergoing treatment, according to a study in the British Medical Journal.Patients diagnosed with colon cancer who had abundant vitamin D in their blood were less likely to die during a follow-up period than those who were deficient in the vitamin, according to a new study by scientists at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.Regression of colon cancer and induction of antitumor immunity by intratumoral injection of adenovirus expressing interleukin-12 Guillermo Mazzolini, Cheng Qian, Xiaoming Xie, Yonglian Sun, Juan J Lasarte, Marek Drozdzik and Jesús Prietocase-control study using data from the Scripps Green Hospital in La Jolla, Calif., The AAPS JournalPharmacogenomics: The promise of personalized medicine [Cancer Research 66, 3992-3995, April 15, 2006]© 2006 American Association for Cancer ResearchPriority ReportsKRAS Mutation Status Is Predictive of Response to Cetuximab Therapy in Colorectal Cancer Astrid Lièvre1,3, Jean-Baptiste Bachet3, Delphine Le Corre1, Valérie Boige4, Bruno Landi2, Jean-François Emile3, Jean-François Côté1,2, Gorana Tomasic4, Christophe Penna3, Michel Ducreux4, Philippe Rougier3, Frédérique Penault-Llorca5 and Pierre Laurent-Puig1,2Karapetis CS, Khambata-Ford S, Jonker DJ, et al.
