    Abstract
    Preoperative radiotherapy (RT) is a mainstay in the management of rectal cancer (RC), a tumor characterized by desmoplastic stroma containing cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF). Although CAF are abundantly present, the effects of RT to CAF and its impact on cancer cells are unknown. We evaluated the damage responses of CAF to RT and investigated changes in colorectal cancer (CRC) cell growth, transcriptome, metabolome, and kinome in response to paracrine signals emerging from irradiated CAF. RT to CAF induced DNA damage, p53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and secretion of paracrine mediators including insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). Subsequently, RT-activated CAF promoted survival of CRC cells as well as a metabolic switch favoring glutamine consumption through IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) activation. RT followed by IGF-1R neutralization in orthotopic CRC models reduced the number of mice with organ metastases. Activation of the downstream IGF-1R mediator mTOR was significantly higher in matched (intrapatient) samples and in unmatched (interpatient) samples from RC patients after neoadjuvant chemoRT. Taken together, our data support the notion that paracrine IGF-1/IGF-1R signaling initiated by RT-activated CAF worsen CRC progression, establishing a preclinical rationale to target this activation loop to further improve clinical responses and patient survival.
