- Ex-vivo tumor tissue culture systems are used as models to test specific anti-cancer drugs. Their main advantage is that they are closely comparable with the in vivo tumor in their host organism. We previously reported that precision-cut organotypic tissue slices of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can be successfully cultured ex-vivo for at least 4 days. In order to study how culturing might affect transcription patterns, we now performed genome-wide transcriptome profiling of both baseline (0 h) and explanted tumors at daily intervals (24, 48 and 72 h) after start of culturing. The total-RNA from five samples of surgically resected human PDAC tumors at baseline and at different time points in culture was sequenced. Differential gene expression analysis of the whole transcriptome, testing 58,713 genes and over 206,000 transcripts, found that only a small number of genes showed significant changes in expression between baseline and cultured samples. The cultured tumor slices showed upregulation of a median of 12, 10 and 15 genes and downregulation of a median of 15, 12 and 25 genes at 24, 48 and 72 h in culture, respectively. One sample had morphologically increasing loss of tissue viability (range 0–18%). The vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) was significantly upregulated during the entire culture period in this case. Pathway over-representation analysis suggested that VEGFA together with the PTGS2 gene were upregulated at the same time as HIF-1-triggered cell apoptosis via NF-ĸB and the AP-1 activating factor was induced. Indeed, increased areas of apoptotic lesions were visible in this sample after 24 hours of culture. In conclusion, genome-wide transcriptome analysis supports that ex-vivo cultured tissue slices of PDAC may be a representative model of the original tumor. Transcriptome analysis was found to be a valuable complement to morphology for evaluation of ex-vivo cultures of PDAC.
