Abstract

Colorectal cancer lethality usually results from post-treatment relapse in the majority of stage II-IV patients, due to the enhanced resistance of Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs). Here, we show that the nuclear receptor Pregnane X Receptor (PXR, NR1I2), behaves as a key driver of CSC-mediated tumor recurrence. First, PXR is specifically expressed in CSCs, where it drives the expression of genes involved in self-renewal and chemoresistance. Clinically, high levels of PXR correlate with poor recurrence-free survival in a cohort of >200 stage II/III colorectal cancer patients treated with chemotherapy, for whom finding biomarkers of treatment outcome is an urgent clinical need. shRNA silencing of PXR increased the chemo-sensitivity of human colon CSCs, reduced their self-renewal and tumor-initiating potential, and drastically delayed tumor recurrence in mice following chemotherapy. This study uncovers PXR as a key factor for CSC self-renewal and chemoresistance and targeting PXR thus represents a promising strategy to minimize colorectal cancer relapse by selectively sensitizing CSCs to chemotherapy.

<abstract>
<p>Colorectal cancer lethality usually results from post-treatment relapse in the majority of stage II-IV patients, due to the enhanced resistance of Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs). Here, we show that the nuclear receptor Pregnane X Receptor (PXR, NR1I2), behaves as a key driver of CSC-mediated tumor recurrence. First, PXR is specifically expressed in CSCs, where it drives the expression of genes involved in self-renewal and chemoresistance. Clinically, high levels of PXR correlate with poor recurrence-free survival in a cohort of >200 stage II/III colorectal cancer patients treated with chemotherapy, for whom finding biomarkers of treatment outcome is an urgent clinical need. shRNA silencing of PXR increased the chemo-sensitivity of human colon CSCs, reduced their self-renewal and tumor-initiating potential, and drastically delayed tumor recurrence in mice following chemotherapy. This study uncovers PXR as a key factor for CSC self-renewal and chemoresistance and targeting PXR thus represents a promising strategy to minimize colorectal cancer relapse by selectively sensitizing CSCs to chemotherapy.</p>

<title>INTRODUCTION</title>
<p>Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer, which causes 655,000 deaths annually worldwide [
<xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
]. To this day systemic chemotherapy cocktails (5-fluorouracil (5-FU), irinotecan, and oxaliplatin) that target the bulk population of proliferative tumor cells remain the cornerstone of treatment for advanced CRC [
<xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
]. However, treatment efficiency is severely hampered by the frequent occurrence of drug-resistance and post-treatment tumor recurrence. In recent years, highly tumorigenic sub-populations of cancer cells, named Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs), have been implicated in post-treatment tumor recurrence [
<xref rid="R3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
]. These cells are characterized by the expression of stem cell factors that endow them with stemness properties, such as the ability to self-renew. They are capable of initiating and sustaining tumor growth in serial transplantation assays [
<xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
,
<xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
]. In addition, they are notably characterized by a higher capacity to resist treatments compared to other tumor cells [
<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
,
<xref rid="R7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
]. Evidence from xenograft models [
<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
] and human trials [
<xref rid="R9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
] indicate selective enrichment of CSCs in CRC tumors that survive therapy.</p>
<p>Given that CSCs are the chief culprits in the failure of current therapies, it is important to identify innovative approaches that target them to improve clinical outcomes for cancer patients. To date, most strategies aim to inhibit CSC self-renewal or to induce their differentiation [
<xref rid="R10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
]. However, these phenotypic traits are shared by healthy adult stem cells, leading to specific concerns about potential side effects. An alternative CRC therapy would be to sensitize CSCs to current therapies, but the precise mechanism underlying the higher drug resistance of CSCs remains unclear. Multiple parameters have been proposed to be involved in CSC drug resistance, including slow proliferation, increased resistance to DNA damage, activation of anti-apoptosis mechanisms, but also expression of multidrug transporters such as ATP-binding cassette G2 (ABCG2 [
<xref rid="R11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
]) and of drug metabolizing enzymes including aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1 [
<xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]) and the cytochrome P450 CYP3A4 [
<xref rid="R13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
]. Accordingly, flow cytometry strategies based on ABCG2 expression (Side Population, SP) and ALDH-activity (Aldefluor-‘bright’ cells or ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
) have been used to identify CSCs in various types of solid tumors including CRC [
<xref rid="R14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
,
<xref rid="R15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
]. SP cells and ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
cells are also characterized by an enhanced chemoresistance to various cytotoxics [
<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
,
<xref rid="R17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
,
<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
]. Consequently, these populations are enriched following chemotherapy [
<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
,
<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
].</p>
<p>We previously reported that the orphan nuclear receptor PXR (Pregnane X Receptor, NR1I2), a key regulator of xenobiotic metabolism in the liver [
<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
], increased irinotecan resistance in CRC cell lines [
<xref rid="R19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
]. Since PXR has been previously described to regulate CYP3A4 gene expression in human hepatocytes [
<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
], and Aldh1a1 and Abcg2 genes in mice [
<xref rid="R20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>
] and porcine [
<xref rid="R21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
] tissues respectively, we hypothesized that PXR may participate in the intrinsic chemoresistance of CSCs. Here, we demonstrate that PXR expression and activity are indeed highly restricted to CSCs, where it drives the expression of a large network of genes that are instrumental for CSC chemoresistance
<italic>in vitro</italic>
and
<italic>in vivo</italic>
. Furthermore, we observed that PXR and its targets form a prognostic indicator for CRC relapse. These results pinpoint PXR as a clinically druggable Achilles' heel for CSCs in colorectal and potentially also in other cancers.</p>

<title>RESULTS</title>
<sec id="s2_1">
<title>PXR expression and activity define chemoresistant colon cancer stem cells</title>
<p>We compared PXR expression in CSCs
<italic>versus</italic>
non-CSCs by using enrichment of self-renewing cells
<italic>(i.e</italic>
. spheroids passaging). Previous studies showed that under defined conditions, CRC cells maintained as floating spheroids display enhanced expression of cancer stem cell markers, increased self-renewal and resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs [
<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
]. We confirmed those observations in patient-derived CRC cells (CRC1) maintained as spheroids (Sphe) compared to cells maintained in adherent conditions and exposed to serum-containing medium (2D). As shown, cells isolated from spheroids had a higher proportion of cells with ALDH activity (Aldefluor positive (‘bright’) cells, ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
, Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1a</xref>
). In addition, they had enhanced spheroid-forming efficiency (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1b</xref>
), a widely used
<italic>in vitro</italic>
assay for CSC quantification [
<xref rid="R7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
], calculated as the percentage of seeded cells that gave rise to a spheroid. Moreover, cells maintained as spheroids had a greater resistance to a combination of 5-FU and SN38 (hereafter named “Firi” as SN38 is the active metabolite of irinotecan), when compared to the same cells maintained as adherent monolayers (≈2-fold increase in EC
<sub>50</sub>
, p<0.01; Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1c</xref>
). RT-qPCR analyses revealed the higher expression of PXR in spheroids compared to 2D conditions as well as an enriched expression of colon CSCs markers (ALDH1A1, Oct-4 [
<xref rid="R22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
] and LGR5 [
<xref rid="R23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
]) and PXR target genes (CYP3A4 and ABCG2) (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1d</xref>
). Similar results were obtained in other tested human CRC cell lines (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1e</xref>
) and patient-derived CRC cells (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S1a</xref>
). In addition, both PXR protein expression and PXR transcriptional activity, measured using a PXR luciferase reporter gene [
<xref rid="R24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
], were higher in spheroids compared to adherent (2D) conditions (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1f, 1g</xref>
). Finally, serial passaging of spheroids (passages 1 to 8, i.e. S1 to S8) resulted in the gradual and concomitant enrichment of spheroid-forming efficiency, of ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
cell percentage and of mRNA expression of CSC markers, correlating tightly with the up regulation of PXR (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S1b-S1d</xref>
). Taken together these findings indicate that PXR is preferentially expressed and active in self-renewing colon CSCs.</p>

<p>We then isolated CSCs using fluorescence-activated cell sorting based on the activity of Aldefluor. Aldefluor activity and ALDH1A1 gene expression have been described as colon CSC markers [

,
<xref rid="R27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
] and cell renewal [
<xref rid="R28" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
]. First, we confirmed that the enhanced Aldefluor activity (ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
, Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2a</xref>
) was indeed associated with the specific expression of the ALDH1A1 mRNA isoform in CRC cells (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S2a, S2b</xref>
). CRC1 ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
cells had greater spheroid-forming efficiency (Figure

) and they were more resistant to Firi treatment (≈6.8-fold higher EC

, p<0.01; Figure

) than ALDH
<sup>lo</sup>
cells. As shown on Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2d</xref>

<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2e</xref>

<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2d, 2f</xref>
, and
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S2a, S2b</xref>

cells (Figures

<p>To validate the preferential expression and activity of PXR in chemoresistant CSCs, we infected T84 cells with a GFP-tagged PXR-driven promoter (CYP3A4eGFP) to selectively sort cells according to their PXR activity level (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3a</xref>
); cells transduced with an EIF1α -driven eGFP construct were used as control. We first validated the reporter system by comparing the expression of PXR and its target genes in cell populations sorted according to their GFP expression level. Cells with high PXR activity (i.e. CYP3A4eGFP
<sup>br</sup>
) had higher PXR, CYP3A4 and ABCG2 mRNA expression (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3b</xref>
). Furthermore, CYP3A4eGFP
<sup>br</sup>
cells had enhanced expression of colon CSC markers such as ALDH1A1, Oct-4 and LGR5. In addition, CYP3A4eGFP
<sup>br</sup>
cells had higher resistance towards Firi treatment (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3c</xref>
). Finally, CYP3A4eGFP
<sup>br</sup>
cells had higher sphere-forming efficiency (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3d</xref>
) and a ten-fold higher stem cell frequency (as calculated according to Hu et al. [
<xref rid="R29" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
]) (1/9±3 for CYP3A4
<sup>br</sup>
cells vs 1/94±32 for CYP3A4

cells. Accordingly, flow cytometry analyses showed a specific increase of cells with strong PXR activity after CSC selection, by spheroid passaging or Firi treatment (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3e</xref>
). Together these data demonstrate that PXR transcriptional activity tracks chemo-resistant CSCs.</p>

<sup>br</sup>
cells (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD2">Supplementary Table S2</xref>
and Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4b</xref>
). Notably, PXR-depletion led to the down-regulation of CSC markers such as ALDH1A1 [
<xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
], OLFM4 [
<xref rid="R30" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
], and LRIG-1 [
<xref rid="R31" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>
] and the up-regulation of differentiation markers such as MUC2 (goblet cells) and FABP1 (enterocytes). A Gene Ontology analysis highlighted that PXR depletion in ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
cells down-regulates the DNA damage sensor and repair machinery (known to help CSCs to overcome many standard anticancer treatments [
<xref rid="R32" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
]), while it promotes the expression of genes involved in apoptosis and cell death (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S3</xref>
). GSEA analyses based on a clinical study describing outcome-related gene signatures in groups of patients homogeneously treated with 5-FU-based chemotherapy [
<xref rid="R33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
], showed that down-regulated genes in ALDH

cells, following PXR depletion, were specifically enriched in a poor progression-free survival signature. Conversely, genes that were up-regulated in PXR-depleted cells were enriched in the good-prognosis signature (Figure

] and a poor prognosis factor in colon cancer patients [
<xref rid="R38" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
], we focused our attention on its putative regulation by PXR. First, gain- and loss-of function in LS174T cells confirmed that the expression of ALDH1A1 mRNA and protein was positively regulated by PXR (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5a, 5b</xref>
). In addition, the proportion of ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
cells was enhanced in PXR-overexpressing cells and strongly decreased upon PXR down regulation by shRNA (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5c</xref>
). Similar results were obtained in the T84 CRC cell line (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S4c, S4d, S4e</xref>
). Experiments using different shRNA sequences leading to the specific down-regulation of PXR expression or rescue experiment confirmed the direct involvement of PXR on ALDH1A1 and Aldefluor activity level (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S5</xref>
). To assess the clinical relevance of correlation between PXR and ALDH expression, we compared PXR and ALDH1A1 mRNA expression in human samples. As shown, PXR and ALDH1A1 were significantly correlated in primary tumor samples from stage II & III CCR patients (n=78) and in CRC liver metastatic samples (n=12) (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5d</xref>
). In addition, we attempted to determine whether PXR expression was correlated with clinical outcome in homogenous groups of chemotherapy-treated colorectal cancer patients. We first performed a Kaplan-Meier analysis of PXR mRNA expression in 5-FU-treated stage II/III CRC patient cohort [
<xref rid="R37" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
]. We found that patients bearing tumors with high PXR expression had a significantly lower probability of disease-free survival, indicating that high PXR is associated with poor prognosis in stage II/III colon cancer patients treated with 5-FU-based chemotherapy (n=213; p=0.0369; Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5e</xref>
). This effect was even more markedly increased when we analysed the outcome for stage II patients only (n=81; p=0.0089), for whom finding biomarkers of treatment outcome is an urgent clinical need. Similar results were obtained by using RPLO (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5e</xref>
) or GAPDH (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S6</xref>
) as reference gene. These results clearly demonstrated that elevated PXR expression in CCR patients is positively correlated with a higher recurrence frequency, an outcome that is often driven by the persistence of chemoresistant cancer stem cells.</p>

<title>PXR knockdown increases recurrence-free survival in mouse xenograft models</title>
<p>To study the relationship between PXR and CSCs chemoresistance, we established spheroid cultures from patient-derived colorectal tumor samples (CRC1) and infected these cells with a lentivirus allowing the stable expression of small hairpin RNAs targeted against PXR (shPXR) or a control (shLUC). A significant down-regulation of PXR and PXR-regulated gene mRNAs was observed in shPXR-expressing spheroids (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6a</xref>
). PXR depletion reduced both the ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
cell population (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S7</xref>
) and sphere-forming potential (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6b</xref>
) and these effects were strongly amplified following serial spheroid passaging. To determine the impact of PXR on CSC chemoresistance and post-treatment relapse, we generated tumor xenografts by subcutaneously injecting 15,000 PXR-deficient (shPXR) or control (shLUC) cells from spheroids into nude mice (n=18/group). Twenty days after injection, mice were randomized and received either vehicle or a Folfiri regimen (90mg/kg leucovorin, 50mg/kg 5-FU and 30mg/kg irinotecan, twice a week from day 23 to 45) designed to induce tumor regression [
<xref rid="R39" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>
]. Tumor growth was noticeably slower in shPXR group compared to shLUC control group in absence of treatment and tumor stasis upon Folfiri treatment was detected in both groups (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6c</xref>
). Three days after treatment cessation (day 48), six mice from the vehicle- and Folfiri-treated groups were sacrificed for subsequent analysis, while tumor growth and post-treatment relapse were monitored in the remaining mice. Recurrence was clearly noticeable from 3 weeks post-treatment (day 69) in shLUC control group, which had a ≈2-fold accelerated growth rate compared to untreated tumors. In contrast, the growth rate of shPXR tumors did not increase after Folfiri treatment (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6c</xref>
) and their recurrence was strongly delayed (Log-Rank Mantel-Cox test p=0.029; Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6d</xref>
). Thus PXR depletion efficiently prolongs progression-free survival following chemotherapy. Finally, to determine whether PXR down-regulation affected the

tumor-initiating potential of Folfiri-resistant tumor cells, we subcutaneously transplanted 1,500 cells obtained from residual tumors collected three days after treatment completion (day 48) into new nude mice (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6e</xref>
). Cells isolated from Folfiri-treated shLuc control tumors induced the rapid formation of second-generation tumors in all grafted animals. In contrast, tumor growth rate was much lower in mice injected with cells isolated from Folfiri-treated shPXR tumors and tumor incidence was strongly delayed (Log Rank Mantel-Cox test p=0.026; Figure

<title>PXR depletion impairs chemotherapy-induced enrichment of tumorigenic CSCs
<italic>in vivo</italic>
</title>
<p>To understand the cellular mechanism involved in the tumor relapse of CRC cells following chemotherapy, we analyzed the reservoir of CSCs from tumors, collected three days after treatment cessation (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6c</xref>
, day 48). We first analyzed the frequency of CSCs from tumors collected at day 48 from untreated and folfiri-treated mice. In agreement with the literature [
<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
], we found a significant increase of spheroid-forming efficiency after Folfiri treatment in control tumors (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7a</xref>
), suggesting that chemotherapy increased the proportion of CSCs whilst eliminating the more differentiated and proliferative tumor cells. However, this selection of CSCs was completely abolished in shPXR-derived tumors. Indeed, spheroid-forming efficiency was even lower in shPXR-derived tumors cells following chemotherapy compared to untreated shPXR or shLUC tumor cells, therefore the down-regulation of PXR completely prevents chemotherapy-induced CSC enrichment. Accordingly, while the proportion of ALDH
<sup>br</sup>
cells was significantly increased in Folfiri-treated control tumors, this enrichment was completely impaired in tumors derived from Folfiri-treated shPXR group (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7b</xref>
). Moreover, ALDH1A1-positive cells were barely detectable by immunohistochemistry in sections of Folfiri-treated tumor xenografts in the shPXR group compared to control group (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7c</xref>
). In addition, RT-qPCR revealed a large increase of PXR and CSC gene marker (ALDH1A1, Oct-4 and LGR5) mRNA expression after Folfiri treatment of control tumors (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7d</xref>
). These increases were severely impaired in shPXR tumors. Comparable results were obtained

in patient-derived cells (CRC1) or in the LS174T cell line (

<title>DISCUSSION</title>
<p>PXR is a nuclear receptor whose downstream target genes are involved in the production of phase I and II metabolic enzymes and phase III drug transporters. PXR activation has been implicated in poor response of cancer cells [
<xref rid="R40" ref-type="bibr">40</xref>
]. Here we show that the activity of this receptor is largely restricted to the minority self-renewing cell-subpopulation of tumors and that it is responsible for the ability of cancer stem cells to successfully withstand sustained chemotoxic aggression and this drives post-treatment tumor recurrence. First, we observed that PXR expression is higher in CSC-enriched tumor cells. PXR expression was enriched during spheroid passaging (Figures
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>
and
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S1</xref>
), after cell sorting using Aldefluor activity (Figures
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>
and
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S2</xref>
) and also after drug selection in several CCR cell lines and patient-derived cells (Figures
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S8, S9</xref>
and
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">S10</xref>
). In addition, CRC cells with enhanced PXR transcriptional activity had increased expression of CSC markers, self-renewal and chemoresistance (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
). These results are in agreement with the fact that, PXR was one of the most overexpressed nuclear receptors in human glioma stem cells compared to glioma cells [
<xref rid="R41" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>
].</p>
<p>By using both gain- and loss- of function approaches, we show that PXR drives the expression of a large number of genes that promote several hallmarks of cancer stem cells, such as chemoresistance, DNA repair and self-renewal (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD2">Supplementary Tables S2</xref>
and
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD3">S3</xref>
). Notably, we observed that PXR controls the expression of genes that were previously reported to confer CSC chemoresistance or to have a negative impact on disease-free survival in colon cancer patients, including ABCG2, ABCC6, ALDH1A1, CYP3A4, or S100A10. These observations were corroborated by our observation that stage II and III CRC patients with high PXR expression have a lower probability of disease-free survival after chemotherapy (Figures
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5</xref>
and
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure S6</xref>
), while GSEA analyses showed that PXR target genes are associated with a poor-prognosis molecular signature in colorectal cancer patients (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4</xref>
). These data strongly suggest that PXR is an upstream molecular switch in CSCs that drives a network of key downstream targets that enable them to resist treatment. PXR may promote the adaptation of CSCs to their environment by providing them with a multi-faceted arsenal that includes an enhanced capacity to resist cell death and chemotoxic insult and thus the ability to self-renew and maintain their stemness potential.</p>
<p>We demonstrate that PXR down-regulation decreased CSCs chemoresistance (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4a</xref>
) and chemotherapy-induced CSC enrichment and it also significantly delayed tumor relapse after Folfiri treatment of xenografted animals (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6</xref>
). In addition, the tumor-initiating ability of residual tumor cells and the proportion of CSCs found in tumor xenografts at the end of Folfiri treatment were strongly decreased in PXR knockdowns (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">6</xref>
). These observations imply that PXR may represent a key target to improve the efficiency of conventional chemotherapy through the sensitization of CSCs and counteract the selection/emergence of chemoresistant CSCs (Figure
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F8">8</xref>
). The potential implications of these results are far-reaching as post-treatment relapse is one of the major issues hampering clinical managements of CRC.</p>

<p>PXR expression in CSCs leads to enhanced transcription of PXR target genes promoting CSC plasticity by providing these cells with a defense arsenal that includes drug-metabolizing and transporter genes, enhanced capacity to deal with oxidative stress and genome alterations, and enhanced anti-apoptotic capabilities. Targeting PXR expression/activity using pharmacological inhibitors, may down regulate this multi-faceted protection against cytotoxic drugs and improve the efficiency of conventional chemotherapy in CRC patients through the sensitization of CSCs.</p>

<p>The large network of genes controlled by PXR in CSCs suggests that this receptor is a potential Achilles' heel for CSCs in colorectal cancers. Additionally, this may be true for other human cancers, as significant PXR expression levels have been detected in prostate, breast and ovarian cancers, where Aldefluor activity and ALDH1A1 expression are enriched in chemo-resistant CSCs [
<xref rid="R42" ref-type="bibr">42</xref>
<xref rid="R44" ref-type="bibr">44</xref>
]. Interestingly ALDH1A1 was among the most significantly deregulated genes after PXR knock-down or gain of function. Despite accumulating evidence in several cancers for the functional role of ALDH1A1 enzyme in CSC self-renewal and survival [
<xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">45</xref>
], the specific mechanisms involved in its regulation in CSCs remain unclear. Here we observed that PXR is an important driver of ALDH1A1 expression and activity in human colon CSC cells (Figures
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figures S4</xref>
and
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">S5</xref>
). These results are in agreement with previous studies showing that Pxr activation increases both Aldh1a1 mRNA expression [
