Project description:No reliable predictors of susceptibility to gemcitabine chemotherapy exist in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. MicroRNAs (miR) are epigenetic gene regulators with tumorsuppressive or oncogenic roles in various carcinomas. This study assesses chemoresistant PDAC for its specific miR expression pattern. Gemcitabine-resistant variants of two mutant p53 human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines were established. MicroRNA screening was investigated by microarray. Gemcitabine-resistant PANC-1 (PANC-1-GR) and MIA-PaCa-2 (MIA-PaCa-2-GR) cell clones were produced by exposing the parental cells to repeated pulsatile gemcitabine treatment over 3 days with constant sublethal concentrations followed by recovery-periods with agent-free medium until the cells recovered exponentially. Parental PANC-1 cells were treated with 0.4µM gemcitabine cycles for approximately 9 months. Parental MIA-PaCa-2 cells were exposed to 0.06µM gemcitabine cycles for approximately 12 months. Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA microarrays (Affymetrix UK Ltd., High Wycombe, UK) were performed in parental and chemoresistant PANC-1 and MIA-PaCa-2 cells after 29 chemotherapy cycles using the manufacturers´ protocols. The samples were prepared from 1µg of total-RNA in accordance with the Affymetrix FlashTag Biotin HSR RNA Labeling Kit. The targets were hybridized overnight to Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA arrays. Following hybridization, the arrays were washed and stained using the Affymetrix GeneChip Fluidics Station 450 and scanned using the Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner 3000 7G. Microarray data quality was checked as recommended by the manufacturer and by the quality metrics in the Partek Genomics Suite software (Partek Inc., St. Louis, MO).

Project description:Epigenetic modifications could drive some of the molecular events implicated in proliferation, drug resistance and metastasis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Thus, epigenetic enzyme inhibitors could be the key to revert those events and transform PDAC into a drug-sensitive tumor.We have performed a systematic study with two different epigenetic enzyme inhibitors (UVI5008, MS275) targeting either Histone Deacetylase 17 (HDAC) 1 or 1/4, DNA methyltransferase 3a (DNMT3a), Euchromatic histone lysine methyltrans- 18 ferase 2 (EHMT2) or Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), and one drug that restores the p53 function (P53R3), in three 19 different human PDAC cell lines (MIA PaCa-2 and BxPC-3). The synergistic effect of these antitumoral drugs with gemcitabine was tested and the most efficient combinations were characterized by RNA-seq. The combination of UVI5008 or MS275 with gemcitabine induced a synergistic effect at low concentration and the RNA-Seq analysis revealed some synergy candidate genes as potential biomarkers.

Project description:Aberrant tyrosine kinase activity can influence tumor growth and is regulated by phosphorylation. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a very lethal disease, with minimal therapeutic options. We investigated phosphorylated kinases as target in PDAC. Mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomic analysis was performed of PDAC cell lines to evaluate active kinases. Pathway analysis and inferred kinase activity was performed to identify novel targets. We investigated targeting of focal adhesion kinase in vitro with drug perturbations in combination with chemotherapeutics used against PDAC. Phosphoproteome analysis upon treatment was performed to evaluate signaling..PDAC cell lines portrayed high activity of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases. Non-receptor kinase, focal adhesion kinase (FAK), was identified in all cell lines by our phosphoproteomic screen and pathway analysis. Targeting of this kinase with defactinib validated reduced phosphorylation profiles. Additionally, FAK inhibition had anti-proliferative and anti-migratory effects. Combination with (nab-)paclitaxel had a synergistic effect on cell proliferation in vitro and reduced tumor growth in vivo. In conclusion, our study shows a high phosphorylation of several oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinases in PDAC cells and validated FAK inhibition as potential synergistic target with Nab-paclitaxel

Project description:Identification and characterization of epigenetically silenced genes is very important for cancer research. Particularly, information of hypermethylated genes provides clues to understand roles of epigenetics in tumorigeneses, and genes frequently methylated in a tumor-specific manner can be used as tumor markers. DNA methylation inhibitors such as 5-aza-cytidine or 5-aza-2M-bM-^@M-^Y-deoxycytidine were widely used to search epigenetically silenced genes. However, these inhibitors frequently upregulate genes whose promoters remain unmethylated. We tried to improve the specificity and sensitivity in detecting such methylation-mediated silenced genes in cancer and successfully developed a new method termed M-bM-^@M-^\methyl-CpG targeted transcriptional activation (MeTA)M-bM-^@M-^] by using a transcriptional activating fragment with a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) that specifically recognizes and binds to methylated DNAs. Because MBD proteins in fact mediate transcriptional repression of tumor suppressor genes associated with promoter hypermethylation in cancer, MeTA is thought to be one of the ideal methods to search such genes. In the present study, we applied this method to three representative pancreatic cancer cell lines, AsPC-1, MIA PaCa-2, and PANC-1, with a normal pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line HPDE (as the control). All of these cell lines have already been analyzed their expression profiles by 5-aza-2M-bM-^@M-^Y-deoxycytidine. We first analyzed the expression of five genes by RT-PCR with Southern hybridization, NEFH, NPTX2, SFRP1, TIMP3, and UCHL1; these genes are known to be methylated in at least any one of these cancer cell lines. Upregulation by M-bM-^@M-^\MeTAM-bM-^@M-^] was confirmed in all of these genes. Then we searched for upregulated-genes, by two-folds or more, in all the three cancer cell lines after MeTA; nineteen such upregulated genes were identified. Among these, sixteen genes except NEFH, HOXA9, and CLDN5 have not been reported previously using the conventional DNA methylation inhibitors. Methylation status of two genes, SLC32A1 and CSMD2, were further analyzed by methylation-specific PCR and found that SLC32A1 and CSMD2 were methylated in 100% (21/21) and 83% (15/18) pancreatic cancer cell lines analyzed, respectively. Our results suggest that M-bM-^@M-^\MeTAM-bM-^@M-^] is a highly efficient method to isolate methylation-mediated transcriptionally silenced genes in human pancreatic cancer and that this method can be applied to other types of human cancer. Three representative pancreatic cancer cell lines, AsPC-1, MIA PaCa-2, and PANC-1, with a normal pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line HPDE (as the control) were transfected with pcDNA6/myc-His vector or pcDNA6-3xFLAG-NFkB (AD)-MBD and were harvested 48 h after transfection.

Project description:Annexin A1 (ANXA1) is a Ca2+-binding protein involved in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression. It is able to mediate cytoskeletal organization maintaining a malignant phenotype. ANXA1 Knock-Out (KO) MIA PaCa-2 cells partially lost their migratory and invasive capabilities and also the metastatization process is affected in vivo. Here, we investigated the microRNA (miRNA) profile in ANXA1 KO cells. The analysis of the modification in miRNA expression remarked the significant involvement of ANXA1 in PC progression. In this study, we focused on miR-196a which is a well known oncogenic factor in several tumour models and it appeared down-modulated in absence of ANXA1. Furthermore, both ANXA1 and miR-196a are able to trigger the mechanisms of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). Our results show that the reintroduction of miR-196a through the mimic sequence restored the early aggressive phenotype of MIA PaCa-2. Then, ANXA1 seems to support the expression of miR-196a and its role. On the other hand, this miRNA is able to mediate some of protein functions in PC progression. This work elucidates the correlation between ANXA1 and specific miRNA sequences, particularly miR-196a, and provides new knowledge about the protein intracellular role.

Project description:Here we use high-resolution mass spectrometry (MS) to characterise the magnitude and complexity of global tyrosine phosphorylation PDAC. We profiled the endogenous tyrosine phosphorylation-based signaling in 36 cell lines from two cell line populations, quantifying around 2,000 tyrosine phosphorylation sites. This approach facilitated consistent segregation of PDAC cell lines into three subtypes with distinct signalling profiles, using both their global tyrosine phosphorylation patterns and a Random Forest derived 8 phosphorylation site signature. We extracted segregation-driving phosphosites, and subsequent pathway and network analysis to characterise the identified subtypes.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a leading causes of cancer mortality worldwide. Non-specific symptoms, lack of biomarkers in the early stages, and drug resistance due to the presence of a dense fibrous stroma all contribute to poor outcome of this disease. The extracellular matrix of PDAC is secreted by activated fibroblasts known as cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs). These fibroblasts can also affect cancer cell aggressiveness by paracrine crosstalk with cancer and immune cells present inside the tumor mass. The interplay among tumoral cells, immune cells and CAFs involve a huge array of molecules especially cytokines. Given the importance of CAFs in PDAC pathology it is critical to recognize the mechanisms involved in the crosstalk between these cells. To this aim, we first identified the proteins released from the pancreatic cancer cell line MIA-PaCa2 by proteomic analysis of their conditioned medium (CM). Second, fibroblasts were treated with MIA-PaCa2 CM for 24 and 48 hours and their proteostatic changes were detected by proteomics. Pathway analysis indicated that fi-broblasts treated with CM undergo changes compatible with the activation of migra-tion, vasculogenesis, cellular homeostasis and metabolism of ammino acids and re-duced apoptosis. These biological activities are possibly regulated by ITGB3 and TGFB1/2 in an early stage (24 hours) while SMAD3 and STAT3 could be the key player at later times (48 hours). In conclusion this study shed light on the crosstalk between PDAC cells and associated fibroblasts.

Project description:GNAS, a gene encoding G-protein stimulating alpha subunit, is frequently mutated in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs), which is an indolent and slow-growing pancreatic neoplasm that secretes abundant mucin. GNAS mutation is not observed in conventional ductal adenocarcinomas of the pancreas. To determine the functional significance of GNAS mutation in pancreatic ductal cells, we examined in vitro phenotypes and gene expression profiles of cells of pancreatic ductal lineage, HPDE, PK-8, PCI-35, and MIA PaCa-2, with exogenous expression of either wild-type or mutated (R201H) GNAS. We found that exogenous GNAS upregulated intracellular cyclic-adenine monophosphate, particularly in the mutated GNAS transfectants. Exogenous GNAS induced no obvious cell-growth promotion, but induced suppression in some cells. The exogenous GNAS upregulated MUC2 and MUC5AC in HPDE and PK-8, and the latter was most sensitive to exogenous GNAS, exhibiting drastic alteration of the global gene expression that is consistent with that of IPMN. Hence, PK-8 expressing exogenous mutated GNAS may be an ideal in vitro model of IPMN. On the other hand, exogenous GNAS downregulated expression of mucin genes and produced modest alteration of gene expression profiles in PCI-35 and MIA PaCa-2, indicating lower sensitivity to exogenous GNAS. Furthermore, we showed diverse and cell-type specific mucin expression pathways with complicated interactions between signaling pathways of the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K), in which the GPCR pathway appeared to be dominant in some and the MAPK pathway in others. In conclusion, mutated GNAS found in IPMNs may extensively alter gene expression profiles, including expression of mucin genes, with the interaction with MAPK and PI3K pathways in pancreatic ductal-lineage cells, which may determine the characteristic phenotype of the neoplasm. Cells of pancreatic cancer cell lines, PK-8, PCI-35,and MIA PaCa-2, were seeded at 4 M-CM-^W 10^5 cells/well in 6-well plates and incubated for 24 hours at 37M-BM-0C in 5% CO2 with humid atmosphere. Then the cells were transfected with either pcDNA 3.1/V5-His vector or pcDNA3.1-GNAS(R201H)-V5-His vector using Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Life Technologies) according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys recommendations. The cells were incubated for 24 hours and collected by dissociation using trypsin. Total RNAs were isolated using the RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) library was constructed using a SOLiD SAGE Kit (Life Technologies) according to the manufactureM-bM-^@M-^Ys instruction. The constructed libraries were analysed by means of the massively parallel sequencing method using SOLiD 4 System (Life Technologies). The SAGE analysis was performed for samples obtained from single transfection experiment.
