Granulocytic Myeloid‐Derived Suppressor Cells Promote the Stemness of Colorectal Cancer Cells through Exosomal S100A9
Open accessAbstract
Cancer stem cells play a critical role in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. Myeloid‐derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) promote tumor progression through multiple mechanisms in CRC. The roles of MDSCs in CRC cell stemness are unclear. MDSC‐derived exosomes are proposed to act as intercellular messengers. Herein, it is reported that granulocytic MDSCs (G‐MDSCs) promote CRC cell stemness and progression in mice through exosomes. It is found that S100A9, is highly expressed in G‐MDSC‐derived exosomes, and its blockade suppresses CRC cell stemness and the susceptibility of mice to AOM/DSS‐induced colitis‐associated colon cancer. Hypoxia induces G‐MDSCs to secrete more exosomes in a hypoxia‐inducible factor 1α (HIF‐1α)‐dependent manner, and respiratory hyperoxia can reduce CRC cells stemness through the inhibition of GM‐Exo production. Study‐based CRC patients also show that human MDSCs enhance CRC cell stemness and growth via exosomal S100A9, and plasma exosomal S100A9 level in CRC patients is markedly higher than that in healthy subjects. Thus, this study suggests that G‐MDSCs promote CRC cell stemness and growth through exosomal S100A9. Moreover, respiratory hyperoxia may be a beneficial strategy to reduce CRC cells stemness through the inhibition of GM‐Exo production. MDSCs exosomal S100A9 may be a marker for predicting the development of CRC.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
