Beschreibungen/Notizen
The regulation and stem cell origin of normal and neoplastic gastric glands are uncertain. Here, we show that Mist1 expression marks quiescent stem cells in the gastric corpus isthmus. Mist1+ stem cells serve as a cell-of-origin for intestinal-type cancer with the combination of Kras and Apc mutation and for diffuse-type cancer with the loss of E-cadherin. Diffuse-type cancer development is dependent on inflammation mediated by Cxcl12+ endothelial cells and Cxcr4+ gastric innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). These cells form the perivascular gastric stem cell niche, and Wnt5a produced from ILCs activates RhoA to inhibit anoikis in the E-cadherin-depleted cells. Targeting Cxcr4, ILCs, or Wnt5a inhibits diffuse-type gastric carcinogenesis, providing targets within the neoplastic gastric stem cell niche.

Hayakawa et al. show that Cxcl12+ endothelial cells and Cxcr4+ gastric innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) form a perivascular niche to support diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC) development from Mist1-expressing gastric stem cells through Wnt5a produced by ILCs. Targeting ILCs, Cxcr4, or Wnt5a inhibits DGC development.
