Current biomarkers of TINs and treatment strategies targeting TINs have not yielded optimal responses in patients across cancer types. Here, we separated human and mouse neutrophils into three developmental stages, including promyelocyte (PM), myelocyte & metamyelocyte (MC & MM), and band & segmented (BD & SC) neutrophils. Based on this separation, we observed the predominance of human but not mouse MC & MM-stage neutrophils in bone marrow (BM), which exhibit potent immunosuppressive and tumor-promoting properties. MCs & MMs also occupy the majority of TINs among patients with 17 cancer types. Moreover, through the creation of a NOD/ShiLtJGpt-Prkdcem26Cd52Il2rgem26Cd22/Gpt (NCG)-Gfi1−/− human immune system (HIS) mouse model, which supports efficient reconstitution of human TIN, we found a significant increase of BM MCs & MMs in tumor-bearing mice. By comparing the single-cell RNA sequencing analysis results of human neutrophils from both BM and tumors, we found that CD63 and Galectin-3 distinguish MC & MM from neutrophil populations in cancer patients. Furthermore, we proposed a strategy with Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand to specifically induce the trans-differentiation of MCs & MMs into monocytic cells, and trigger tumor control in NCG-Gfi1−/− HIS mice. Thus, our findings establish an essential role of human MC & MM-stage neutrophils in promoting cancer progression, and suggest their potential as targets for developing potential biomarkers and immunotherapies for cancer.","PeriodicalId":9926,"journal":{"name":"Cell Research","volume":"35 8","pages":"588-606"},"PeriodicalIF":25.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144629697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fetal-like transcriptional programs have been increasingly implicated in promoting plastic cell states, yet their roles remain difficult to study due to limitations of existing culture models. Here, we establish a chemically defined patient-derived organoid system that enables long-term expansion of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells while preserving fetal-like features associated with phenotypic plasticity. Using this model, we identify an oncofetal state (OnFS) that is enriched in advanced tumors and linked to key features of plasticity, including epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity, as well as increased metastasis and treatment resistance. Mechanistically, we show that FGF2-AP-1 signaling maintains the OnFS program and associated phenotypic plasticity in CRC. This model offers a powerful platform for studying the fetal-like features underlying cancer cell plasticity and their role in tumor progression and treatment resistance in CRC.","PeriodicalId":9926,"journal":{"name":"Cell Research","volume":"35 9","pages":"642-655"},"PeriodicalIF":25.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144564631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While it is well-established that inducible transcriptional repressors are synthesized de novo through signal-dependent transcriptional upregulation, it remains unclear whether post-translational modification mechanisms, such as deubiquitination, also contribute to this process. We previously identified developmentally silenced sine oculis (SIX) transcription factors that are reactivated to control inflammatory gene transcription in differentiated immune cells under chronic microbial infections. However, the molecular mechanisms by which this transcriptional silencing process is regulated remain unclear. Here, we report that USP2, a deubiquitinase localized in the nucleus and induced by inflammatory signals, stabilizes SIX proteins through deubiquitination under inflammatory conditions. Consequently, the USP2-SIX complex acts in concert to control NF-κB-mediated inflammatory gene transcription by directly targeting gene promoters. Supporting this mechanism, Usp2−/− mice exhibit higher mortality during H1N1 infections, which phenocopies Six1−/− mice, attributed to elevated levels of life-threatening inflammatory mediators and exacerbated pathology. This study establishes a deubiquitinase-dependent transcriptional control of the inflammatory response to prevent immunopathology, offering new therapeutic avenues for combating infectious diseases.","PeriodicalId":9926,"journal":{"name":"Cell Research","volume":"35 9","pages":"675-686"},"PeriodicalIF":25.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144547107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
