ABSTRACT: Cancer cell lines can provide robust and facile biological models for the generation and testing of hypothesis in the early stages of drug development and caner biology. Although clinical trials remain the ultimate scientific testing ground for anticancer therapies, the use of appropriate model systems to explore the molecular basis of drug activity and to identify predictive biomarkers during their development can have a profound effect on the design, cost and ultimate success of new cancer drug development. In order to capture the high degree of genomic diversity in cancer and to identify rare molecular subtypes, we have assembled a collection of >1000 cancer cell lines. These lines have been characterised using whole exome sequencing, genome wide analysis of copy number, mRNA gene expression profiling and DNA methylation analysis (http://cancer.sanger.ac.uk/cell_lines). To further characterise this panel of cell lines we have now compiled data for RNA sequencing. The current study represent data for ~450 of the cell lines in the panel, data for the remaining lines can be accessed via the CGHUB data browser hosted at UCSC.

Project description:The goal of this project is to understand the etiology and pathology of host-pathogen interaction using high-throughput cellular phenotyping. By combining the expertise in pathogen biology, informatics and stem cell biology across the institute, this project will use targeted genetic modification in mouse embryonic stem cells to identify functions of host genes in innate immunity. We will also explore the biology of mouse embryonic stem cells and their differentiation into immune competent cells. To this end we will generate homozygous and inducible knockout lines in mouse embryonic stem cells, which will be differentiated into immune competent cells, such as macrophages or dendritic cells. These will be subjected to a panel of immune challenge and stimulation assays to characterise the functions of the disrupted genes. To identify new functions for mammalian genes in innate immunity we will:\Generate a panel of homozygous inducible gene knockout mouse ES cell lines working from a list of ca. 80 candidate genes (MGP phenotyping and GWAS hits). \Scale up differentiation protocols for immune challenge and stimulation assays.\Benchmark in vitro differentiated ES cell models against primary immune cells from selected MGP mouse lines and eventually against human iPS cells.\Screen a panel of 30 genetically modified cell lines in immunological challenge and stimulation assays, defining phenotypes at the cellular level by high content imaging, biochemically by assaying cytokine production, and at the molecular level by transcriptome analysis.\Define novel gene functions in innate immunity through network analysis of gene expression data from all challenged cell lines.\In the longer term scale up the production and phenotyping of genetically modified cell lines (mouse or human as appropriate).This data is part of a pre-publication release.
