Figure Legend Snippet: (A) CCL20 protein levels in 786-O RCC cells after induction of EMT by TGFb. (B) DGE between macrophages within 50um of sRCC cells (right) vs >50um (left) from CosMx analysis. (C) Box plot of average SPP1 expression of macrophages in Clear Cell, Transition, or Sarcomatoid FOVs from CosMx analysis. (D) Macrophage differentiation marker and SPP1 protein expression in polarized THP-1 derived macrophages and M0 macrophages treated with recombinant CCL20. (E) EMT protein markers from 786-O cells treated with recombinant SPP1. (F) EMT markers in 786-O cells treated with conditioned media from M0, M1, or M2-like macrophages. (G) EMT marker proteins and several proteins found to be highly differentially expressed in Sarcomatoid cells at the mRNA level (CD44, Met, ANXA2) in 786-O cells treated with conditioned media from M2 macrophages with or without SPP1 knockdown by siRNA. (H) PD-L1 protein expression in 786-O cells treated with conditioned media from M2 macrophages with or without SPP1 knockdown by siRNA. (I) Cell invasion assay representative images and quantification in 786-O cells treated with conditioned media from M2 macrophages with or without SPP1 knockdown by siRNA. (J) Schematic of proposed mechanistic pathway of sarcomatoid transformation. Clear cells undergo transformation to “transition” phenotype in which they express increased cytokines including CCL20 which attract immune infiltrate including macrophages. CCL20 and other cytokines lead to M2-like polarization of macrophages with increased SPP1 expression. SPP1+ macrophages then feedback to tumor cells, inducing EMT and PD-L1 expression and leading to full sarcomatoid-like changes.
