Introduction

The immune response to cancer differs from the immune response to viruses and pathogenic microorganisms, due to the fact that tumor cells are not appear to be alien to the patient's body [1]. Cancer cells possess mechanisms that allow them, in addition to evading immune surveillance, to use cells of the immune system to support its growth and development. The tumor microenvironment is able to attract circulating monocytes, which can differentiate into tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) and form an inflammatory infiltrate [2]. Monocyte differentiation into a specific cell type with antitumor or protumor activity is a critical event for the clinical course of disease and increasing therapy effectiveness [3, 4].

Monocytes and macrophages are important components of innate immunity, as they are involved in maintaining tissue homeostasis [3, 5]. Monocytes are a population of circulating white blood cells that enter the blood from the bone marrow. They have the ability to phagocytize, present antigens, secrete chemokines or cytokines, and differentiate depending on tissue microenvironment stimuli [2]. Despite their wide range of functions, monocytes are considered immature immune cells [5]. When ingested into tissues, monocytes are able to differentiate into macrophages, dendritic cells, and suppressor cells of myeloid origin. According to the classification adopted in 2010, the blood monocyte population is divided into three subpopulations depending on the expression of CD14 (one of the components of bacterial wall lipopolysaccharide receptor complex), and CD16 (FcyRIII, a membrane protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily) [6]. There are 3 monocyte subsets: CD14+16-classical, CD14+16+ intermediate,

and CD14-16+ non-classical. The percentage of classical, intermediate and non-classical monocytes was 80-90 %, 10-15 % and 2-5 %, respectively [6]. The contribution of each subpopulation to cancer patho-genesis has not yet been elucidated and needs to be studied. The tumor can influence both the cell differentiation and changes in the phenotype of monocytes. The acquisition of immunosuppressive activity is the most common cancer-induced phenotypic change in human peripheral blood monocytes [7]. Typically, this phenomenon coincides with suppression of the MHC class II surface protein HLA-DR, a key mediator of antigen presentation, which is also highly expressed on monocytes of healthy individuals [8, 9].

Among the approaches that are available to resolve questions concerning_phenotypic and functional mono-cyte heterogeneity, gene expression studies are may be particularly valuable [10, 11]. Microarray analysis and next-generation RNA sequencing allow the relative quantification of gene expression. The development of genetic sequencing technology has provided opportunities for a comprehensive study of phenotypic and functional differences between recognized immune cell subtypes, as well as the possibility of identifying new cell subpopulations [11]. The identification of differentially expressed genes in the studied immune cells and monocytes allows comparisons between different cell populations or within the same cell population isolated under different conditions [10, 12]. Microarray analysis is a powerful tool for predicting the functional cell profile. In vitro experiments are also important to validate functional predictions based on gene expression data [10]. Thus, the study of circulating monocytes in cancer patients using high-tech research methods is of great importance.

The purpose of the study was to identify functional features of circulation monocytes in patients with non-metastatic breast cancer.

with 10 % FCS (BioSera, France), 1 % penicillin, and gentamicin at 37°C and 5.0 % CO2 until confluence was reached.

Material and Methods

The study group included 10 female patients aged 35 to 64 years with stage II-III and T1-3N0-2M0 breast cancer (BC). The diagnosis was verified morphologically. All patients had an invasive breast carcinoma of no special type. The molecular subtype of the tumor was determined as part of standard pathology protocols. The distribution of molecular subtypes among patients with breast cancer was as follows: 6 patients with luminal breast cancer type B, and 4 patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Patients received 6-8 courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel or taxotere in accordance to the Primary breast cancer: ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines for diagnosis, treatment and follow-up 2015". All patients were undergoing surgical treatment, radiotherapy, and an adjuvant chemotherapy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Whole blood samples were obtained from the healthy volunteers and patients before any treatment procedures. The control group included 7 healthy females aged 37 to 56 years. The study was approved by the ethics committee of the Cancer Research Institute of the Tomsk National Research Medical Center and complied with the Helsinki Declaration of 1964. All patients signed an informed consent to participate in the study.

Assessment of the monocyte functional

potential in vitro

The stimulation system of primary human macrophages derived from peripheral blood monocytes was used as a model of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) [13]. Monocytes were isolated from venous blood using CD14-positive magnetic separation according to the protocol of Myltenyi Biotec (Germany) with an isolation purity of at least 90 % of CD 14+ cells. Monocytes obtained from BC patients and healthy donors were cultured for 6 days at the concentration of 1x106 cells/ml in X-Vivo-10 serum-free media (Lonza, Germany) in an optimally selected concentration of the macrophage colony-stimulating factor M-CSF (10 ng/ml) at 37 °C and 7,5 % CO2. After 6 days of cultivation, conditioned media from the obtained macrophages were selected, filtered through filters with a low protein binding ability. The resulting conditioned media samples were stored at -80°C for no more than 6 months. Before use, the conditioned media were removed from the storage system and thawed at +40°C for 4 hours.

The BC cell line MDA-MB 231 (Russian Collection of Vertebrate Cell Cultures, Institute of Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg) was used as targets. MDA-MB 231 cells were cultured in DMEM medium (PanEco, Russia)

Assessment of monocyte conditioned media influence on apoptosis and proliferation of breast cancer cells

To detect the apotosis-inducing ability, confluent MDA-MB 231 cells were supplemented with conditioned media in a volume of 20 % of culture medium total volume. Next, the cells were incubated for 48 hours at 37 °C and 5.0 % CO2. For the apoptosis analysis, cells were removed with trypsin (PanEco, Russia) and stained for 10 min with FITC-labeled annexin-V and propidium iodide (Biolegend, USA). Fluores-cently labeled annexin-V and propidium iodide were evaluated using a CytoFLEX flow cytometer (Beck-man Coulter, USA) using standard protocols. The stage of early apoptosis, late apoptosis and necrosis was assessed based on the combination of annexin-V gates and propidium iodide. Data were visualized and analyzed using CytExpert Software 2.0.

To study the conditioned media effect on proliferation, tumor cells were transplanted onto specialized chips of the RTCA iCELLigence system (ACEA Biosciences, Japan). Conditioned media were 20 % of culture medium total volume. A well with MDA-MB 231 cells supplemented with 20 % X-Vivo-10 culture medium (Lonza, Germany) was used as a control. The proliferation of MDA-MB 231 cells of each sample was continuously detected and displayed as graphs in real time for 72 hours. The proliferation index (PI) was calculated and the data were visualized using the RTCA Software Lite software (ACEA Biosciences, Japan).

Statistical analysis

Statistical analysis was performed using Statistica version 10 for Windows (StatSoft Inc). Variable distribution was presented as mean ± Standard Deviation (SD). Normal distribution was confirmed using the Kolmogorov Smirnov test for in vitro studies. The Student t test was used to detect significant differences between two groups to apoptosis and proliferation analysis via vitro tests.

Next generation sequencing and bioinformatics data analysis

To analyze the transcriptome of monocytes, the peripheral blood of patients with breast cancer and healthy women was used. The fraction of peripheral blood mononuclear cells was obtained from the blood on the Ficoll density gradient (1.077 g/cm3). Next, monocytes of the classical (CD14+16-), intermediate (CD14+16+), and non-classical (CD14-16+) subpopulations were isolated for the sequencing using flow cytometric sorting. The panel of conjugated monoclonal antibodies against CD45, CD56, CD14, CD16, and 7-AAD markers was used (Table 1).

Samples were analyzed on a MoFlo XDP cell sorter (Beckman Coulter, USA). The target subpopulation for sorting was characterized by the parameters 7-ADD-CD45+CD56-CD14+16- (Fig. 1).

Monocyte sorting was carried out in the Purify 1-2 mode. The sorting efficiency in this mode was 70 %, and the purity of the target population was 98-99 %. At least 600 thousand cells of the target subpopulation were sorted into RLT lysis buffer (Qagen, Germany). Then, total RNA was isolated from the resulting lysate in no more than 60 min using RNAeasy mini kit plus (Qagen, Germany) according to the manufacturer's protocol. The quality of the obtained RNA was assessed using a TapeStation 4150 automated capillary

electrophoresis station (Agilent Technology, USA). The RNA integrity index - RIN was 8.5-9.9. Samples of total RNA were stored at -80°C until the next work stage, excluding freezing and thawing stages.

The full transcriptome profile of monocytes was determined with massively parallel sequencing. Libraries for mass parallel sequencing were prepared using the NEXT flex Rapid Directional qRNA-SeqKit kit and the NEXTflex-qRNA-8nt-Barcodes single-ended index kit according to the standard protocol (Perkin Elmer, USA). Ribosomal RNA depletion was performed using the NEBNext® rRNA Depletion Kit (Human/Mouse/ Rat) (New England Bilab, USA). The prepared libraries were pooled, and sequencing was performed on the

NextSeq500 platform (Illumina, USA) with a set of reagents for single-ended reading 1x75 (single read). The number of cycles was 50. As a result, each library had an average of about 5 million reads.

Reads were mapped onto the genome using the STAR 2.5 program [14], The GRCh38 genomic assembly and GENCODE.R34 annotations were used as a reference. After mapping, data obtaining on the number of mapped reads to individual genes was performed using the QoRTs program [15]. After this stage, using the DESeq2 software package, which is part of the R medium, data were obtained on the differential gene expression between the control and experimental groups. Principal component analysis (PCA) also was applied to dimension reduction and assess which patient samples differed from the healthy group. To describe the differential gene expression in monocytes of BC patients compared to monocytes of healthy persons, was used the log2 of the gene expression difference between comparison groups (2logFoldChange). Using the Enri-chr software package [16], enrichment was carried out for biochemical and regulatory pathways using lists of genes ranked by expression level (log2FoldChange) and p-value. The Hallmark gene sets, Reactome, KEGG, and GO databases were used for the experiment. The associations of differentially expressed genes were determined with the STRING database [17]. The data were visualized using the Enrichr and Phantasus programs [18], as well as the R environment tools.

Results

Influence of conditioned media obtained in vitro by monocyte cultivation on proliferation and apoptosis of breast cancer cells

The study of monocyte functional potential was carried out using a model system in which monocytes isolated from peripheral blood were transformed into macrophages under in vitro conditions under the influence of M-CSF. The conditioned media obtained by macrophage culturing were added to MDA-MB 231 breast cancer cells line. Then their effect on the MDA-MB 231 BC cells proliferation and apoptosis was evaluated.

Apoptosis evaluation of target cells cultured with conditioned macrophage media using the flow cytom-etry method did not reveal a significant effect of factors produced by macrophages on the death of tumor

cells (Table 2). This fact was noted both for a group of macrophages obtained from healthy individuals and from patients with breast cancer (Table 2).

However, the effects of the conditioned media of induced macrophages on the proliferative activity of the MDA-MB 231 tumor line were different for patients with breast cancer and for the group of healthy individuals (Fig. 2). To detect the proliferation ability of target cells, the proliferation index (PI) was calculated. PI is the ratio of indicators of the cell proliferation level in wells with conditioned media to the well indicators. Cell cultivation was carried out under standard conditions.

In the group of healthy women, PI was below sample proliferation baseline and amounted to 3.81 ± 0.047 conventional units (Fig. 2A, B). Conditioned media was not added. PI during tumor cells co-cultivation with macrophage conditioned media of BC patients did not differ from the baseline and was equal to 4.28 ± 0.45 conventional units, which exceeded the PI index of the healthy group with p=0.008 (Fig. 2A, B).

No difference in proliferative activity between macrophages of patients with triple-negative breast cancer and macrophages of patients with type B luminal breast cancer was found (proliferation indexes were 4.0 ± 0.17 and 4.0 ± 0.43, respectively, p=0.642). Thus, the ability of conditioned media obtained from BC patient macrophages to support tumor cells proliferation under in vitro conditions was observed. It is notable that the molecular subtype has no pronounced effect on circulating monocytes in the blood. It was suggested that luminal B and triple-negative BC patient monocytes could have transcriptional programs caused by the breast tumor presence and activated upon differentiation into macrophages. To test the hypothesis, transcrip-tome study of BC patient monocytes was carried out in comparison with healthy women monocytes.

Influence of breast cancer on the transcriptome

landscape of monocytes

A transcriptome profile is a set of genes that are expressed in cells at specific times and characterize the biological processes occurring in them. To characterize peripheral blood monocytes, the complete transcriptomic profile of these cells was assessed using massively parallel sequencing in a group of BC patients and healthy women. The transcriptome of CD14+16- breast cancer monocytes was shown to dif-

fer from that of healthy women monocytes. The group of BC patient samples was located separately from a group of healthy volunteer's samples on a PCA plot (Fig. 3A). PCA reveals that the top 2 principal components (PCs) account for 63 % of the total variance, with the first component (PC1) alone accounting for 53,5 % of the variance and showing clear separation between the BC and healthy samples (Fig. 3A).

In breast cancer patients, there was a significant difference in the transcriptome profile between CD 14+16-and CD14+16+/CD14-16+monocyte subpopulations. However, no significant difference in the transcriptome profile between CD14+16+ and CD14-16+monocyte subpopulations was found. (Fig. 4 A). In healthy women, no differences between monocyte subpopulations were observed (Fig. 4 B). For breast cancer patients, it is noteworthy that a comparison of the expression of individual genes in each subpopulation revealed a decrease in the level of transcripts of the S100A8 and S100A9 genes in CD14+16- (Fig. 4C).

Verification of tissue specificity according to the set of differentially expressed genes using the Jensen tissues database (18) showed that the profile of the detected genes matched the signature of blood mono-cytes (Fig. 3B). Further gene expression difference analysis with p-value<0.01 and log2FoldChange>0.75 showed that patient monocytes were characterized by an increased expression of genes for ABCA1, ABCG1 transporter proteins, CCR1, CRRL2, CXCR4 chemok-ines, HBEGF growth factor, MAFB and JUN factors of maturation and monocyte differentiation, factors mediating endocytosis CD163, Siglec1, proteases and tetrasponins ADAM9, CD151, CD82, receptors (Fig. 3C). A comprehensive assessment of transcript functional interactions using the STRING database revealed that the most likely factors that ensure tumor cells proliferation can be heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HBEGF), proteases, and ADAM9, CD151, CD82 tetrasponins (Fig. 3D) (16). The set of activated signaling pathways typical for patient monocytes was represented by processes characteristic of the immune response, signaling pathways associated with interferons, and the process of neutrophil degranulation. (Fig. 3E).

Discussion

The main function of monocytes in malignant neoplasms is to replenish the pool of tumor-associated macrophages, dendritic cells, and myeloid suppressor cells [2]. It is known that monocytes differentiate into tissues under the influence of autocrine stimuli [19]. Currently, it is assumed that monocytes can have certain transcriptome programs mediated by the tumor presence at the stage of bloodstream circulation [9, 20, 21]. Cancer, as a systemic disease, can affect monocytes at the progenitor level, in circulation, and also during the monocyte migration into tissue [7, 22]. In general, an increased number of peripheral blood monocytes in cancer has been described for

both humans and laboratory animals [7, 23]. In most carcinomas, monocyte activity is most likely aimed at the tumor support. Thus, patients with the higher monocyte levels in blood have a worse prognosis for pancreatic cancer, gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer [23-26]. The search for mechanisms of switching the functional activity of monocytes towards antitumor immune response activation is a promising task of cancer immunology.

It is known that TAMs are essential components of the tumor microenvironment [19, 27]. It has been shown that the functional polarization of TAM is aimed at the tumor supporting in the overwhelming majority of BC cases [4, 28]. Thus, the typical M2-type TAM markers are associated with poor prognosis [22, 29-31]. Like all tissue macrophages, TAM have a certain level of heterogeneity and the ability to adapt their phenotype under the influence of growth

factors and cytokines produced by tumor cells [32]. TAMs, in turn, secrete growth factors, cytokines, and extracellular matrix components that support tumor progression and increase its malignant potential [20, 33]. Since monocytes are the main plastic resource of tissue OAM, it is important in which direction and how quickly monocytes will differentiate into OAM. In this work, it was shown that monocytes from breast cancer patients differentiated into macrophages, which produced inducers capable of supporting the BC cell line growth. However, the components of conditioned macrophage media obtained from healthy women monocytes reduced the proliferation rate of the breast cancer cell line. Thus, it was noted that monocytes of BC patients, in contrast to healthy individuals, differentiated into macrophages with possible protumor functional activity. A similar observation was shown in vitro modeling of triple-negative breast cancer. In that situation, the macrophage introduction into the model increased the tumor cell proliferation [34]. In our study, we found no differences for groups with lu-minal B and triple negative molecular subtypes. There were no differences in the effect of these two subtypes

on the ability of monocyte-derived macrophages to produce proliferation inductors to the MDA-MB 231 cell line. Circulating monocytes are likely susceptible to breast carcinoma without a pronounced effect of the molecular subtype.

To clarify the possible mechanisms of breast tumor influence on circulating monocytes, we studied the transcriptome profile of CD14+16-, CD14+16+, and CD14-16+ monocytes in breast cancer. It should be noted that only in the group with breast cancer, CD14+16- monocytes significantly differed from CD14+16+ and CD14-16+ subpopulations, and were characterized by a decrease in the expression of S100A8 and S100A9 genes. Previously, it was shown that a decrease in S100A8 and S100A9 production corresponded to extravasation phase of monocytes and neutrophils [35, 36]. A similar phenomenon is associated with the monocyte differentiation into tissue macrophages and dendritic cells [36-38]. Consequently, the monocytes circulating in the peripheral blood of BC patients are prepared for the differentiation phase. It distinguishes them from healthy people monocytes. Thus, the CD14+16- subpopulation may represent a

resource for replenishing the TAM pool in the BC group. According to the obtained results, the presence of breast cancer affects the CD14+16 cell transcriptome. In breast cancer, the expression of CXCR4, CCR1, and CCRL2 components of the receptor-ligand complex, which are specific to the stages of monocyte migration into tissues, is increased [39, 40]. It should be noted that patient monocytes contain an increased content of CD163 and SIGLEC1 transcripts which indicate the differentiation into M2-like macrophages [19, 20, 41]. In addition, the expression ofMAFB and JUN factors increased in monocytes of the BC group. These factors indicate the monocyte maturation and differentiation into macrophages [42, 43]. The tran-scriptomic profile of BC patient monocytes indicated a more pronounced readiness for differentiation into macrophages, compared with the normal physiological state of monocytes.

Due to the fact that conditioned media derived from differentiated monocytes supported tumor growth, the research focused on finding monocytic factors that could support or stimulate malignant cell proliferation. According to the obtained data, monocytes have an increased level of expression of HBEGF in breast cancer. HBEGF is an important ligand of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). It is noted that HBEGF is a key progression factor in liver, colon, skin, prostate, bladder, and breast tumors [44-46]. It is known that M2-type macrophages secrete higher levels of HBEGF compared to M1-type macrophages. By releasing HBEGF, M2 macrophages induce the proliferation of ovarian cancer cells [47]. It has been shown that HBEGF is co-expressed with oncostatin M in TAM of breast carcinoma patients, and both ligand plasma levels are strongly correlated [45]. An increase

in HBEGF level accompanied TAM infiltration, tumor growth, and tumor spread in this group of patients [45]. In addition, HBEGF, along with osteopontin and IL6, supported breast tumor growth in vitro [48]. Another possible mechanism for maintaining tumor cells growth may be through exosomes containing tetrasponins and proteases. Thus, macrophages that were co-cultivated in vitro with BC tumor cells secreted tumor growth stimulating exosomes [49]. In monocytes of BC patients, an increase in the expression of CD151 and CD82 tetrasponin and ADAM9 proteasome genes was found. It is known that these components can be found in exosomes that support tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo [50-53]. Thus, CD151 and CD82 tetrasponins and ADAM9 protease, along with HBEGF, may be the factors that provide support for breast tumor growth.

Conclusion

Breast tumor initiates a change in the functional profile of peripheral blood monocytes. Transcriptomic profile changes affect each of the three maj or monocyte subpopulations. It should be noted that monocytes of the major CD14+16- subpopulation are the most significant in breast cancer pathogenesis due to increased expression ofthe HBEGF, CD151, CD82, and ADAM9 genes. The transcriptome program implementation of BC patient monocytes is manifested in the course of their differentiation into macrophages, which can support the growth of breast tumor cells. The data obtained confirm the concept of the formation of a pool of monocytes with the ability to support tumor growth in breast cancer. Identification of uniquely expressed genes in BC patient monocytes opens up the feasibility of searching for new therapeutic targets, diagnostic and prognostic markers.
