AbstractAlthough many studies have compared tumor fibroblasts (T-Fbs) and nontumor fibroblasts (N-Fbs), less is understood about the stromal contribution of metastatic lymph node fibroblasts (LN-Fbs) to the evolving microenvironment. Here, we explored the characteristics of LN-Fbs in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and the interactions between fibroblasts and ESCC tumor cells in metastatic lymph nodes. Fibroblasts were isolated from tumor, nontumor and metastatic lymph node tissues from different patients with ESCC. Transcriptome sequencing was performed on the fibroblasts. Tumor growth and drug-resistance assays were carried out, and characteristics of T-Fbs, N-Fbs and LN-Fbs were determined. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used to assay the culture medium of fibroblasts. The results demonstrated that fibroblasts derived from different tissues had different characteristics. Coculture with LN-Fbs conditioned medium inhibited ESCC tumor cell growth and induced chemoresistance in ESCC cells. LN-Fbs induced chemoresistance to cisplatin in ESCC cells by secreting PI16. Coculture with LN-Fbs conditioned medium decreased cisplatin-induced apoptosis in ESCC cells by regulating the p38 and JNK cell signaling pathways. Survival analyses showed that patients with high PI16 expression in Fbs of lymph nodes exhibited worse overall survival. We also examined PI16 expression in interstitial tissues in ESCC tumor samples of patients receiving platinum-based therapy postsurgery and found that high PI16 expression in tumor interstitial tissues was an independent prognostic factor for ESCC patients. In addition, an in vivo assay demonstrated that PI16 knockdown increased the sensitivity of ESCC cells to cisplatin. Our results suggest that fibroblasts in metastatic lymph nodes decrease apoptosis of ESCC cells via PI16, thereby providing a cisplatin-resistance niche and supporting ESCC tumor cells to survive in metastatic lymph nodes. PI16 is also a potential target for effectively blocking the chemoresistance niche signaling circuit in response to cisplatin.
