Anastasia Vyacheslavovna Lokhonina, PhD, Deputy Director of the Research Institute of MCM

− goals and objectives of the research project;

Analysis of the transcriptome landscape and population composition of head and neck tumors before and after proton therapy based on single cell RNA sequencing. Within the framework of this project, changes in tumor tissue and the peritumoral region at the transcriptome levels after hadron therapy will be studied using the single cell RNA-Seq (scRNASeq) sequencing method, which will allow identifying differential molecular signatures of radiobiological processes that can be used for personalized determination of the safety and effectiveness of proton therapy.

− description of scientific approaches and methods, equipment for the implementation of the research project.

For the first time, gene expression changes will be studied for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck organs using single cell RNA sequencing, which will allow determining the differential expression of oncogenesis genes in various populations of tumor tissue cells before and after hadron therapy. The method will allow identifying transcriptome changes in tumor cells and microenvironment cells and key genes responsible for carcinogenesis, tumor formation, radiosensitivity, radioresistance and apoptosis in patients with head and neck oncopathology. Analysis of the transcriptome landscape based on single cell RNA sequencing allows assessing heterogeneity and differentiation within the tumor cell population and its microenvironment and will lead to new knowledge in the biology of head and neck tumors. Within the framework of this project, changes in the transcriptome levels after hadron therapy will be studied, which will allow The role and mechanism of PCSK9 inhibition to improve the effectiveness of hadron therapy by remodeling the tumor immune microenvironment of lung adenocarcinoma with STK11 mutation to identify differential molecular signatures of radiobiological processes that can be used to personalize the safety and efficacy of proton therapy. The object of the study will be tumor tissue biopsies and peritumoral tissue obtained from patients with a diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma, anatomically localized in the head and neck area before and after treatment with hadron therapy - proton therapy. The study will include patients over 18 years of age, with a morphologically verified diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma (the disease code corresponds to ICD 10 C00-C14, C30-C33), anatomically localized in the head and neck area. Tumors of the head and neck organs include neoplasms localized in the ear, nose, sinuses, oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, thyroid gland, parathyroid and salivary glands, but not tumors of the central nervous system, eye neoplasms, as well as primary tumors of the lymphatic, nervous and endocrine systems, which can also develop in this anatomical region. The study will include both primary, previously untreated patients and patients with local and locoregional relapses of previously treated tumors. Biological material will be collected according to the developed method before and after proton therapy. The choice of surgical and drug treatment will be carried out in accordance with the current clinical guidelines of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. If radiation therapy is included in the patient's treatment algorithm, it will be carried out in a combined treatment mode, after obtaining consent to participate in the study. The study of tumor tissue of the head and neck region and organs will be conducted using biopsy material of the tumor and peritumoral tissue (control) from patients after surgery - samples "before hadron therapy" and after treatment with hadron methods (protons) - samples "after therapy". Scientific and clinical description of tumors taken into the study include the study of epidemiology, risk factors, etiology, tumor architecture and tumor microenvironment, phenotype of tumor and tumor-associated cells and other types of work requiring coordinated work of oncologists, radio- and chemotherapists, immunologists, pathohistologists, cellular and molecular biologists and other specialists. Biopsy material should be delivered to the laboratory within 2-4 hours after surgery. To do this, the tumor tissue biopsy must be placed in a sterile container with a transport medium cooled to 4°C (DMEM/F12 with an antibiotic-antimycotic), which is transported in a thermal container with cooling elements. Before surgery, it is necessary to obtain informed voluntary consent from the donor. When sequencing single cell RNA using the Chromium Single Cell 3' v3.1 reagent kit (10x Genomics), the cell suspension will be prep

Konstantin Borisovich Gordon, PhD, Associate Professor, Department of Histology, Medical Institute

− goals and objectives of the research project;

This project is aimed at studying the mechanism of action of PCSK9 inhibition in the STK11/LKB1-mutant lung adenocarcinoma line with subsequent prediction of changes in the tumor immune microenvironment to improve the efficiency of hadron radiation therapy for STK11/LKB1-mutant adenocarcinoma, which will ultimately expand treatment options and improve the prognosis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma.

− description of scientific approaches and methods, equipment for the implementation of the research project.

Work program including proposed research methods:

I. To identify the enhancing effect of PCSK9 inhibition on the efficacy of particle radiotherapy in STK11/LKB1-Mut

LUAD.

(i) To construct human and mouse LUAD cells with knockdown of both PCSK9 and STK11 (double knockdown, DKD).

Using CRISPR-Cas9 technology, two different sgRNAs targeting human and mouse STK11 are inserted into the lentiCRISPRv2 vector, then the modified lentivirus is used to infect LUAD cells. Stable human (using corresponding human LUAD cell lines based on STK11/LKB1 mutation status) and mouse (LLC and 344SQ) STK11KD cell lines were selectively selected with appropriate antibiotics (such as puromycin) and, after confirming STK11/LKB1 knockdown (>90%) by Western blotting, knocked down PCSK9 using the same CRISPR-Cas9 technology to generate stable DKD cell lines for further study. (Task 1)

(ii) To investigate that STK11KD activates PCSK9 expression in LUAD via the AMPK/SREBP2 pathway. First, determine the expression of AMPK, SREBP2 and PCSK9 in STK11KD cells by Western blotting; then knock down AMPK and SREBP2 in STK11KD cells and observe the effect on PCSK9 expression; finally, overexpress STK11/LKB1 or AMPK in STK11KD cells, or apply AMPK activators to see if PCSK9 activation can be suppressed. This will further confirm that in LUAD, STK11/LKB1 regulates PCSK9 expression via the AMPK/SREBP2 pathway. (Task 2)

(iii) Determine the combination of PCSK9-iT and particle therapy in vitro experiments. In vitro cellular experiments were performed using different particle types (protons, neutrons, and carbon ions) on human and mouse STK11KD LUAD cells with either an empty PCSK9 vector control (vector control, VC) or PCSK9-KD, or on human STK11-WT or Mut LUAD cells irradiated with low-LET (protons) and high-LET (carbon ions, neutrons) particles, followed by treatment with different concentrations of PCSK9 inhibitors (evolocumab or alirocumab: 0, 0.1, 1, 10, 100 mg/mL, at different time intervals of 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 96 h, and 120 h). The inhibitory effect of PCSK9-iT and particles on STK11/LKB1-Mut LUAD will be assessed using MTT and CCK8 assays to provide a reference for subsequent animal experiments. (Task 3)

(iv) Detection of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in DKD LUAD cells and pathway enrichment analysis. RNA-seq will be used to detect DEGs in human and mouse LUAD PCSK9-VC and PCSK9-KD STK11-KD cells (with or without particle irradiation, 3 independent replicates per group), and pathway enrichment analysis will be performed to investigate the effect of PCSK9 inhibition in combination with particle therapy in STK11/LKB1-Mut LUAD cells, as well as the analysis of immune signaling pathways in these cells. (Task 4)

(v) Establishment of subcutaneous LUAD mouse models to study the effects of PCSK9-iT and particle radiotherapy on STK11-KD LUAD growth. Subcutaneous LUAD models of DKD + particle radiotherapy and PCSK9 inhibitors + particle radiotherapy are performed in syngeneic immunocompetent mice (LLC and 344SQ cell lines, corresponding to C57BL/6 and 129/Sv mice, with different cell numbers injected depending on the cell line) and immunodeficient nude mice (Nu/Nu), with experimental groups and treatment plans referring to previously published animal experimental protocols of our research group. Tumor growth (volume = length × width^2/2) and OS are monitored, with an endpoint of observation when the tumor volume exceeds 2000 mm³. This will clarify the essential role of normal immune responses in enhancing the inhibitory effect of PCSK9-iT in combination with RT particles on the growth of STK11/LKB1-Mut LUAD. At least three mice per group, and each animal experiment is repeated at least twice. (Task 5)

II. Elucidate the mechanism of PCSK9 inhibition in altering the tumor immune environment of TIME in STK11/LKB1-Mut LUAD, especially in enhancing immune cell infiltration after high LET RT.

(i) Analyze the relationship between PCSK9 expression and the spatial distribution of TIME in tumor tissues

The 1st round of the intellectual competition Open Doors is completed: more than 56,000 students from 196 countries participated in the Olympiad.

The first round of completion of the Open Doors International Olympiad for prospective post-graduate students is closed. The Olympiad is organised by the Global Universities Association within the framework of the Federal Project “Development of Human Capital for regions, industries and research areas” of the National Project "Science and Universities".

More than 56,500 students (the exact number is 56,652) from 196 countries have participated in the project this year. Every fourth Olympiad participant wanted to participate in two or more subject areas out of the 14 offered. All in all, participants submitted almost 78,000 portfolios (77,949, to be exact). More than 21,000 students have shown interest in doctoral degree programs run by Russian universities; they have filled in more than 28,000 portfolios.

The Olympiad was the first project in Russia to globally attract talented international students to Master's degree and doctoral programs run by leading Russian universities. The geography of the Olympiad covers almost every country in the world and widely represents Russian higher education on the global market, competing for the best university applicants.

More than 90% of participants are from Asia and Africa. Questionnaires of the Olympiad participants show that they view Russian higher education on a par with the education leaders of the world - Germany, Canada, the UK, Australia, USA, which are traditionally attractive to university entrants. The participants' interest in the Olympiad has been stable for the last three years, irrespective of the political situation and restrictions connected with the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Olympiad is held in 14 subject areas: Business and Management, Biology and Biotechnology, Engineering and Technology, Clinical Medicine and Public Health, Cognitive Neurosciences and Psychology, Computer and Data Sciences, Linguistics and Literature, Applied Mathematics & Artificial Intelligence, Earth Sciences, Education, Political Sciences, Physical Sciences, Chemistry and Material Sciences, and Economics and Econometrics. The most popular subject areas among international participants of the Olympiad are Business and Management (chosen by 16% of participants), Engineering and Technology (selected by 15% of participants), and Computer and Data Science (chosen by 13% of participants).

The Olympiad is organised into two tracks: the Master's and the doctoral tracks. The Master's track is held in two rounds. The first stage is the evaluation of portfolios. Those who have successfully passed the selection stage are invited to take part in the second round.

Participants of the doctoral track have interviews with potential research supervisors in addition to the two rounds. If the interview is a success, the participant can then choose a research supervisor from among those who have expressed their willingness to supervise a doctoral research project.

The Olympiad is conducted in two languages - Russian and English. After the successful completion of the qualifying rounds, participants can get the status of a winner or a runner-up and choose a degree program taught in Russian or English at a Russian university. Winners of the Open Doors Olympiad have the right to free tuition within the quota of the Government of the Russian Federation. They also have additional opportunities offered by the universities hosting the Olympiad.

The Olympiad allows the selection of the best candidates, among all the competing applicants only every 10th candidate is granted the access for the second round, with the total number of 6,500 applicants to proceed.

Main facts about the Olympiad

The Olympiad has been conducted since 2017/2018 by universities-members of the Association, and since 2018 it has been included in the Federal project “Export of Education” of the National Project “Education”. Furthermore, since 2021 it has been supported by the Federal Project “Development of Human Capital for regions, industries and research areas” of the National Project "Science and Universities".

The 5 -years Olympiad’s achievements are over 245 000 Participants from 197 countries. 2800 winners of the Olympiad were granted the opportunity to study for free at the best Russian universities.

Since the start of the Olympiad, there has been a growing interest in it. Compared with the year 2017, the number of participants grew by 5,5 times. There was a 25% increase in the number of countries of origin of the participants, and the number of completed portfolios grew 10 times.

The second round of the current 6th Olympiad will take place in January 2023.

The winners of the Master's track will be announced on the 10th of February, 2023. The third round (for the doctoral track only) will be organised from the 23rd of February to the 15th of March, and the winners will be announced on the 17th of March, 2023.
