Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of tumor biology, and specifically relates to a head and neck squamous cell carcinoma-associated fibroblast and organoid co-culture system, and its construction method and application. Background Art
[0002] Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) originates in the oropharynx, oral cavity, larynx, and hypopharynx, accounting for nearly 90% of hand and neck cancer cases and is the sixth most common malignant tumor in the world. [1,2] For the treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients, chemotherapy such as fluorouracil (5'FU) or cisplatin (DDP) is routinely given to patients before and after surgery. However, the development of drug resistance has jeopardized the prognosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients. [3-5] .
[0003] The tumor microenvironment is a highly complex ecosystem composed of different types of stromal cells including fibroblasts, blood vessels and immune cells as well as the tumor cells themselves, which together form a communication network to facilitate tumor cell growth. [6-8] Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), in particular, have been reported to influence cancer progression in different cancers. [9] Studies have shown that direct crosstalk between tumor cells and fibroblasts determines cancer growth and progression [6,9,10] Fibroblasts are known to be abundant in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, suggesting they play a crucial role. However, when organoids are used as drug screening models, the absence of fibroblasts during their growth can compromise the accuracy of experimental results.
[0004] As a revolutionary disease model, organoids have broad application prospects in many fields such as stem cell and disease research and drug development. The most classic cytokine culture program in organoid culture is WNER (standing for: Wnt-3a, Noggin, EGF and R-Spondins). Noggin is an important regulator of Wnt signaling pathway and BMP signaling, playing a role in many aspects.
[11] . The R-spondin family of secreted proteins (Rspo1-4) are microenvironmental factors that maintain adult stem cells in multiple organs. Among them, Rspo1 has been proven to be a key factor in the in vitro expansion culture of various adult stem cells. R-sponding1 and Noggin are important components of the most classic growth factor culture scheme in organoid culture. Currently, the culture of organoids mainly relies on expensive commercial cytokines (R-sponding1, Noggin, etc.), which makes the entire culture cost too high, seriously hindering the research and promotion of organoids.

[0050] 1. Fibroblasts are highly abundant in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, suggesting their crucial role. Without the involvement of fibroblasts during the growth process, organoids, as drug screening models, can compromise the accuracy of experimental results. The co-culture method of the present invention better simulates the microenvironment of drug-resistant tumors, ensuring the accuracy of experimental results.
[0051] 2. Current organoid culture relies heavily on the expensive commercial cytokine R-spondin 1, which results in high overall culture costs and severely hinders organoid research and expansion. This invention reduces the concentration of R-spondin 1 in the culture medium, saving culture costs.
[0052] 3. Noggin, as an important component of the most classic growth factor culture protocol for organoid culture, can enable stem cells to proliferate in an undifferentiated state and maintain their stemness. In the co-culture of the present invention, hNoggin (human Noggin) is replaced with mNoggin (mouse Noggin), and the concentration is reduced by half. The addition of mNoggin is beneficial to the survival and growth of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma organoids. The use of this culture medium can highly effectively culture head and neck squamous cell carcinoma organoids, with an extremely high success rate of establishment, and its culture success rate can reach 100%.
[0053] 4. Compared with single culture, the co-cultured organoids of the present invention have faster growth ability and can be passaged in 3 to 5 days.
[0054] 5. The stemness of the organoid cells co-cultured in the present invention is enhanced by 3 to 5 times.
[0055] 6. The drug resistance of the co-cultured organoid cells of the present invention is enhanced by 5 to 7 times under the stimulation of the chemotherapy drug DDP / 5'FU.
[0056] 7. The present invention adopts an on-ice operation method to mince tumor tissue, which can effectively improve the cell yield and cell activity.
[0057] 8. The method of the present invention is simple to operate, takes little time, and can complete cell separation and organoid culture within 1 hour.
[0058] 9. The method of the present invention requires a small amount of tissue specimen, and at least 0.1 g of tissue can be used to separate enough cells to establish fibroblast cell lines and organoids, respectively.
[0059] 10. Compared with other methods for isolating and establishing organoids from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma organoid tissue, the cells isolated by the method of the present invention have high activity and can form obvious tumor organoid tissue 3 to 4 days after cell isolation.

[0073] Example 1
[0074] 1. Immediately after surgery, fresh laryngeal cancer tumor tissue was obtained for cell isolation. The tissue was rinsed with 0.9% NaCl saline in a clean bench to remove blood, placed in a 10-cm culture dish, photographed, and weighed. The patient's tissue number was recorded (this experiment was approved by the ethics committee of our hospital).
[0075] 2. Place the tissue on ice and quickly chop it into pieces of 0.5-1 cm 3 If the tissue piece is too large, it will affect the yield of single cells and can be divided into two parts;
[0076] 3. Place one of the chopped tissues in tissue digestion solution and digest at 37°C for 30 minutes. Filter the digested tissue using a 100 μm filter in a clean bench, collect the filtrate, and discard impurities on the filter membrane.
[0077] 4. The filtrate was centrifuged at 300 g for 3 min at 4°C, the supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was washed once with physiological saline. The resulting pellet was resuspended in DMEM medium (with 1% double antibody and 10% serum) and cultured on a six-well plate to obtain laryngeal cancer-associated fibroblasts.
[0078] 5. Add another portion of minced tissue to the organoid digestion solution and digest at 37°C for 30 minutes. Filter through a 70μm filter and rinse the filter three to four times with saline to remove any cells adhering to the filter to prevent loss. Centrifuge the filtrate at 300g for 3 minutes at 4°C. Carefully aspirate the supernatant, retaining only the pellet. Add 2ml of ACK red blood cell lysis buffer and rapidly invert for 1 minute. Add 0.1% BSA wash buffer and centrifuge at 300g for 3 minutes at 4°C. Carefully aspirate the supernatant, retaining only the pellet. This pellet is the desired laryngeal cancer single cell. Mix the laryngeal cancer single cells with Matrigel at a 1:1 mass ratio. Pipet 50μL into the center of a well of a 24-well plate. Add modified organoid culture medium and culture at 37°C and 95% relative humidity to generate laryngeal cancer tissue organoids.
[0079] 6. After 3-5 days, the laryngeal cancer-associated fibroblasts and laryngeal cancer tissue organoids obtained above were digested separately. The fibroblasts were digested with 1 ml of 0.25% trypsin at 37°C for 2 minutes. The organoids were directly pipetted 10 times with a 1 ml pipette tip to break the organoids into single cells and counted. Co-culture was performed: a 0.4 μm Transwell chamber was placed in a 24-well plate, with the chamber inside the chamber called the upper chamber and the culture plate inside the chamber called the lower chamber. 1×10 4 Laryngeal cancer-associated fibroblasts were seeded into the upper chamber, 1×10 4 Single cells of laryngeal cancer tissue organoids were inoculated into the lower chamber, and improved organoid culture medium was added to both the upper and lower chambers, and the cells were co-cultured in an incubator at 37°C and 95% relative humidity.
[0080] 7. Observe the growth morphology of the organoids in co-culture under a microscope. After 7 days of co-culture, remove the transwell chamber, remove the fibroblasts in the upper layer, and perform drug addition and cell stemness tests only on the organoids in the lower layer.
[0081] Comparative Example 1
[0082] Organoid culture was performed using standard organoid culture medium according to traditional methods. The specific steps are as follows:

The patient's tissue number was recorded (this experiment was approved by the ethics committee of our hospital).
[0084] 2. Place the tissue on ice and quickly chop it into pieces of 0.5-1 cm 3 Add the organoid digestion solution to the small pieces and digest at 37°C for 30 minutes. Filter through a 70μm filter and rinse the filter three to four times with saline to remove any cells adhering to the filter to prevent loss. Centrifuge the filtrate at 300g for 3 minutes at 4°C. Carefully aspirate the supernatant, retaining only the pellet. Add 2ml of ACK red blood cell lysis buffer and quickly invert to mix for 1 minute. Add 0.1% BSA wash solution and centrifuge at 300g for 3 minutes at 4°C. Carefully aspirate the supernatant, retaining only the pellet. This pellet is the desired laryngeal cancer single cell. Mix the laryngeal cancer single cells with Matrigel at a 1:1 mass ratio. Pipet 50μL into the center of a well of a 24-well plate. Add standard organoid culture medium and culture at 37°C and 95% relative humidity to obtain laryngeal cancer tissue organoids.
[0085] The growth morphology of the organoids in monoculture was observed under a microscope. After 7 days of monoculture, the obtained organoids were subjected to drug addition testing and cell stemness testing according to the method of Example 1.
