<h4>Background</h4>MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent a class of small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression by targeting mRNAs and triggering either translation repression or RNA degradation. Emerging evidence suggests the potential involvement of altered regulation of miRNA in the pathogenesis of cancers, and these genes are thought to function as both tumor suppressors and oncogenes.<h4>Methodology/principal findings</h4>Using microRNA microarrays, we identify several miRNAs aberrantly expre ...[more]

Project description:The development of drug resistance is still a major impediment for the successful treatment of cancer, such as advanced stage ovarian cancer, which has a 5-year survival rate of only 30%. The molecular processes that contribute to resistance have been extensively studied, however, not much is known about the role of microRNAs. We compared microRNA expression profiles of three isogenic cisplatin sensitive and resistant cell line pairs. The only microRNA that was consistently downregulated (FDR = 0.000) in all resistant cell lines was miR-634. We investigated the effects of miR-634 modulation in ovarian cancer cell lines and patient derived tumor cells. Overexpression of miR-634 gave rise to a modest G1 phase block and enhanced apoptosis. Furthermore, miR-634 resensitized resistant ovarian cancer cell lines and patient derived tumor cells to cisplatin chemotherapy. Similarly, miR-634 enhanced the response of tumor cells to carboplatin and doxorubicin, but not to paclitaxel. We showed that miR-634 regulates cyclin D1 (CCND1), which is required for the G1-S phase transition, explaining the effects on the cell cycle. In addition, miR-634 repressed expression of GRB2, ERK2, RSK1 and RSK2, components of the Ras-MAPK pathway. Altogether, our findings suggest that miR-634 modulates several cancer relevant targets and therefore miR-634 is an attractive therapeutic candidate to resensitize chemotherapy resistant ovarian tumors. The miRNA expression profile was determined of three cisplatin sensitive/resistant cell line pairs (ovarian cancer cell line pair A2780/A2780 DDP; colon cancer cell line pair HCT8/HCT8 DDP; bladder cancer cell line pairT24/T24 DDP10).

Project description:Comparison of miRNA expression profiles in normal and malignant prostate tissues. Keywords: microarray analysis of microRNA expression profiles MicroRNA expression was compared between normal prostate tissue from either young subjects that died of trauma, or normal adjacent to tumor, and prostatic tumors in older prostate cancer patients. RNA was isolated from frozen tissue sections, enriched for the miRNA fraction, which was subsequently labeled and hybridized to miRNA microarrays for expression profiling analysis.

Project description:The EL4 mouse tumor model is widely utilized within the field of oncology due to its ease of use and excellent response to chemotherapy, with tumors typically experiencing a reduction in mass of 70% following chemotherapy treatment with cyclophosphamide and etoposide for three days. As not much is known regarding the biochemical changes that result in these drastic reductions in tumor mass, we decided to analyze treated and untreated tumors using shotgun proteomics to identify the changes that occur in relative protein abundance following chemotherapeutic treatment, which will help determine the biological processes resulting in tumor death.

Project description:We analysed the extracellular matrix (ECM) landscape of fresh, healthy tissues from human fallopian tube (FT), fimbria (FB, the tissue of origin of serous tubal intraepithelial lesions) and ovarian tissue (OV). The aim was to identify differentially expressed matrix proteins between FB and FT or OV which may promote the neoplastic transformation of serous tubal intraepithelial lesions (STICs) into high-grade serous ovarian cancer, HGSOC, and metastasis from the FB to the OV.

Project description:Both disseminated tumor cells and noncancerous host cells contributed to cancer progression cooperatively in bone marrow. Bone marrow samples were obtained from 4 gastric cancer patients, and were separated into 3 fractions (CD45 positive, CD45 negative/EpCAM positive, and CD14 positive fractions) by the automagnetic-activated cell separation (AutoMACS) system using CD45, EpCAM, and CD14 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, Germany). microRNA expression profiles in each fractions were evaluated in order to identify candidate prognostic markers for gastric cancer patients. In 4 patients with gastric cancer, bone marrow samples (40 mL) were obtained from iliac bones. Nucleated cells were collected by gradient centrifugation using Ficoll-Paque PREMIUM (GE Healthcare Life Science, USA) and Leucosep (Greiner Bio-One, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Next, we separated bone marrow cells into 3 fractions using MACS: CD45 positive (CD45+), CD45 negative/EpCAM positive (CD45-/EpCAM+), and CD14 positive (CD14+). microRNA expression levels of whole bone marrow cells and each fractions were measured by the miRCURY™ LNA array microarray (6th gen-hsa, mmu & rno#208402, Exiqon, Vedbaek, Denmark). The miRCURY™ LNA array microarray slides were scanned using the Agilent G2505C Microarray Scanner System (Agilent Technologies, Inc., USA) and the data analysis was carried out using the Feature Extraction 10.7.3.1 (Agilent Technologies, Inc., USA).

Project description:Due to their role in tumorigenesis and remarkable stability in body fluids, microRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as a promising diagnostic tool. The aim of this study was to identify tumor miRNA signatures for the discrimination of breast cancer and the intrinsic molecular subtypes, and the study in plasma of the status of the most significant ones in order to identify potential circulating biomarkers for breast cancer detection. MiRNA expression profiling of 1919 human miRNAs was conducted in 122 FFPE breast tumors (31 luminal A, 33 luminal B, 27 Her2 and 31 triple negative) and 11 normal breast tissues using LNA based miRNA microarrays. Breast tumors were divided into a training (n=61) and a test set (n=61). Both series comprised a similar number of samples from each molecular subtype. Differential expression analysis was performed and microarray classifiers were developed with samples from the training set and validated in samples from the test set. The most relevant miRNAs were validated by quantitative PCR and analyzed in plasma from 36 pretreated patients, 47 postreated patients and 26 healthy individuals. In addition, further validation in 114 pretreated patients and 116 healthy individuals was performed.

Project description:Epithelial ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecological malignancies. Currently platinum-based chemotherapy, coupled with a taxane based drug is the primary treatment for ovarian cancer. Approximately 25% of patients either present with or rapidly develop resistance to platinum based chemotherapy and all recurrent tumors ultimately become resistant. Epigenetic modifications have been associated with tumor formation and progression and may contribute to therapy response. We performed a methylation screen on a set of tumors and have found a number of genes and family members differentially methylated between resistant patients and sensitive patients. Here we show that loss of expression of CHD3, a member of the Mi-2/NuRD complex, causes increased resistance to platinum chemotherapy drugs. Additionally, ovarian cell lines transcriptionally silenced for CHD3 are more invasive, have migratory ability, and display a transformed epithelial to mesenchymal (EMT) phenotype. Taken together, we provide the first evidence of a role for CHD3 as an important epigenetic regulator of chemoresistance in ovarian cancer and hypothesize EMT as one of the underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, CHD3 expression might represent a therapy response predictor and could be a future therapeutic target for ovarian cancer. We have developed a method to profile genome wide methylation. 71 ovarian tumor samples and 9 normal tissue samples from individuals were analyzed for CpG methylation. Some of these regions were validated for their methylation as a proof of principle for the method. Kamalakaran S., et. al. Mol Oncol. 2011;5:77-92 (PMID: 21169070).

Project description:The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a central regulator of cell proliferation. Inhibitors of mTOR are being evaluated as anti-tumor agents. Given the emerging role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in tumorgenesis we hypothesized that miRNAs could play important roles in the response of tumors to mTOR inhibitors. Rapamycin resistant myogenic cells developed by long-term rapamycin treatment showed extensive reprogramming of miRNAs expression, characterized by up-regulation of the mir-17~92 and related clusters and down-regulation of tumor-suppressor miRNAs. Antagonists of oncogenic miRNA families and mimics of tumor suppressor miRNAs (let-7) restored rapamycin sensitivity in resistant tumor cells. This study identified miRNAs as new downstream components of the mTOR-signaling pathway, which may determine the response of tumors to mTOR inhibitors. Total RNA was extracted from rapamycin sensitive (RS) cells (BC3H1, mouse brain tumor cell line with myogenic properties, ATCC) cultured in Dulbecco’s modified essential medium (DMEM) media supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS), penicillin (100 U/ml) and streptomycin (100 mg/ml). Rapamycin resistant cells (RR1) were developed by culturing BC3H1 cells in the presence of 1 uM rapamycin for 6 months. Three samples in quadruplicate 1)RS cells treated with DMSO for 24 h(BC3H1, reference), 2) RS cells treated for 24 h with 100 nM rapamycin (BC3H1+R), 3) RR1 cells consantly treated with 1uM Rapamycion (RR1+R). For each experiment, 1 μM of total RNA was labeled with Hy3TM dye and a reference RNA pool (consisting of a mixture of equal amounts of total RNA from BC3H1, BC3H1+R and RR1+R cells) was labeled with Hy5TM dye using the miRCURYTM Labeling Kit. The samples were hybridized to Exiqon miRCURYTM LNA Arrays (V10.0).

Project description:The retinoblastoma tumor suppressor, Rb, is implicated in luminal-B and basal-like breast carcinomas, yet its effect on mammary gland development and causal role in breast cancer subtypes remain undefined. Here we show that conditional deletion of Rb in mouse mammary epithelium led to expansion of the stem/progenitor cells and to focal acinar hyperplasia with squamous metaplasia. These uniform lesions progressed into histologically diverse, transplantable mammary adenocarcinomas and adenosquamous carcinomas with features of luminal-B or basal-like carcinomas. A subset of basal-like but none of the luminal-B tumors expressed mutant p53. These results demonstrate a causative role for Rb in the etiology of breast cancer subtypes and implicate p53 status as a determinant of tumor phenotype after Rb loss.
