Primary hepatocytes were isolated from eight-week-old male C57BL/6J mice with STC. (A) Primary hepatocytes were infected with either adenoviral vector expressing GPR110 (ADV-GPR110) or control adenovirus expressing GFP (ADV- GFP) 24h after plating, followed by transfection with ASO1-GPR110, ASO2-GPR110 or ASO-NC for another 6 hours. mRNA expression levels of GPR110 and <t>SCD1</t> from different groups were assessed, as determined by qPCR analysis. (B) Left panel: immunoblotting analysis for the expression level of GPR110 and SCD1 from different groups of primary hepatocytes. Right panel: quantification of protein expression levels of GPR110 and SCD1. Protein expression levels were normalized to the expression of β-tubulin. Each lane is a sample from a different plate. Right panel: quantification of protein expression levels of GPR110, SCD1 and β-tubulin. n = 3 per group. Protein expression levels were normalized to the expression of β-tubulin. The samples for GFP were set as 1 for fold-change calculation. (C-D) HEK293 cells were infected with pGL3-SCD1 promoter-luciferase plasmid and adenoviral vector expressing GPR110 (ADV- GPR110) or GFP (ADV-GFP) for 48 h and DHEA was added to the transfected cells at the concentration of 100 μM for 24 h. Cell lysates were used for (C) luciferase assay or (D) qPCR analysis. Lysates from the cell co-transfection with pGL3-SCD1 promoter-luciferase plasmid and ADV-GFP without treatment of DHEA was set as 1 for fold-change calculation. (E-G) Primary hepatocytes were infected with either adenoviral vector expressing GPR110 (ADV-GPR110) or control ADV-GFP, followed by transfecting with scramble or shSCD1-1 or shSCD1-2 plasmids for another 72 h. Intracellular lipids were extracted and (E) CHO, (F) TG, and (G) FFA were assessed. STC, standard chow diet; i.v., intravenous injection; s.c., subcutaneous injection; ASO, antisense oligonucleotides. CHO, cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; FFA, free fatty acid. Data represents as mean ± SEM; n = 3 per group; repeated with three independent experiments; P value analysed by two-tailed Student’s t test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.

<t>SCD1</t> is overexpressed in lung spheroid cultures. ( a ) ALDH1A1 activity was measured by flow cytometry, as described in Materials and Methods, in spheroid cultures obtained from five lung primary cell cultures and a stable cell line. Results indicated an increased ALDH1A1 activity in Pe d/10 (13.5%), Pe e/10 (11.5%), Pe o/11 (25.1%) and NCI-H460 (22.5%) spheroids. Results represent the means±S.D. of three independent experiments. ( b ) Spheroid-forming ability was also evaluated using different cell density in serum-free medium supplemented with growth factors for 8 days. Increased spherogenicity was observed in spheroid cultures obtained from three primary cell cultures and in the stable cell line NCI-H460, which also displayed increased ALDH1A1 activity. Results are the means of three independent experiments; bars indicate S.D. ( c ) SCD1 mRNA level was increased more than 10-fold in spheroids cultures compared with adherent cultures. Results represented in the histogram are the means±S.D. of three independent experiments. GAPDH was used as housekeeping gene. Student's t -test * P <0.01 and ** P <0.05 in adherent versus spheroid cell cultures.

SCD1 is overexpressed in lung spheroid cultures.

Results indicated an increased ALDH1A1 activity in Pe d/10 (13.5%), Pe e/10 (11.5%), Pe o/11 (25.1%) and NCI-H460 (22.5%) spheroids. Results represent the means±S.D. of three independent experiments. ( b ) Spheroid-forming ability was also evaluated using different cell density in serum-free medium supplemented with growth factors for 8 days. Increased spherogenicity was observed in spheroid cultures obtained from three primary cell cultures and in the stable cell line NCI-H460, which also displayed increased ALDH1A1 activity. Results are the means of three independent experiments; bars indicate S.D. ( c ) SCD1 mRNA level was increased more than 10-fold in spheroids cultures compared with adherent cultures.

Three-dimensional and morphometric analysis of Pe o/11 tumor spheroids grown with or without SCD1 inhibitor. ( a ) Differential interference contrast microscopy of Pe o/11 cultures. The untreated Pe o/11 cultures (left panel) exhibited a typical spheroid pattern of growth with many densely packed spheres with indiscernible individual cells (see inset). The Pe o/11 cultures grown in presence of SCD1 inhibitor for 72 h were characterized by a high number of irregular multicellular structures (right panel) and displayed a small amount of tight spheroids. ( b ) Morphometric analysis of all multicellular structures from treated or untreated Pe o/11: the box-and-whisker plot of shape factor showed the higher sphericity of the tumor spheroids obtained from Pe o/11-untreated cultures. The central box represents the interquartile ranges, the middle line represents the median and the horizontal lines represent the minimum and the maximum value of observation range (Mann–Whitney test: * P <0.0001). At the morphological categorization of structures (see histogram), untreated Pe o/11 showed a higher prevalence of tight spheroids (51.4% versus 10.3%) and a lower prevalence of irregular aggregated (26.9% versus 62.8%) compared with treated Pe o/11. Results reported in graph represent the mean values±S.E. of three experimental replicates (chi-square test: ** P <0.0001).

SCD1 inhibition reduces markers of staminality. ( a ) Pictures of ALDH1A1 activity determined by flow cytometry using Aldefluor assay. NCI-H460 and Pe o/11 cells were transfected with control siRNA (scramble) or a siRNA specific for SCD1 (siSCD1), cultured for 72 h in spheroid medium and subjected to ALDHA1A activity assay by flow cytometry. Data indicated that silencing of SCD1 reduced dramatically the percentage of cells with ALDH1A1 activity both in NCI-H460 and Pe o/11 cultures. Data are representative of three independent experiments.

MF-438 induces apoptosis and cellular damage in Pe o/11 spheroids. ( a ) Flow cytometry analysis using Annexin V staining, showed apoptosis induction in Pe o/11 spheroids treated for 72 h with MF-438 (1 μ M). Data shown in the histogram are the means of three independent experiments, where bars represent S.D. * P <0.01 in treated versus untreated spheroids. ( b ) Analysis of ultrastructural features demonstrated that Pe o/11-untreated spheroids (left panel) showed nuclei generally rounded or, occasionally lobulated, with chromatin finely dispersed and prominent nucleoli. The cytoplasm displayed numerous mitochondria, rod-shaped or elongated, and variable amounts of organelles. Pe o/11-treated cells (right panel) exhibit cellular damage findings such as cytoplasmatic vacuolization, mitochondrial swelling, apoptotic nuclei with areas of marginal, dense-staining chromatin (see asterisk) and, although less frequently, nuclear and cellular fragmentation. Both spheroid cultures, undergone or not to MF-438 treatment, did not exhibit classical junctional complex but rather few continuous junctions and displayed discontinuous and short surface microvilli. (TEM, uranyl acetate/lead citrate). ( c ) Upper panel: Pe o/11 cultures were treated or not with MF-438 1 μ M as described above and immunostained with M30 CytoDEATH Fluorescein monoclonal antibody, able to detect the caspase-cleaved cytokeratin 18. Quantitative immunofluorescence analysis indicated that the percentage of cells presenting positive M30 signal was higher in Pe o/11-treated cultures (47.3% versus 2.4% * P <0.0001). Lower panel: the co-immunostaining for M30 and the stemness marker ALDH1A1 showed that the treatment with MF-438 induced a decrease in ALDH1A1-positive cells (66.8% versus 86.2% obtained from untreated spheroids; Student's t -test: ** P <0.05) and that the SCD1 inhibitor selectively killed the cells with stem-like properties, in fact most of the apoptotic M30 positive cells were also positive for ALDH1A1 (31.6% of M30 + /AldhA1 + versus 3.0% of M30 + /AldhA1 − cells in Pe o/11 MF-438 treated; Student's t -test: * P <0.0001).
