Characterization of a new human astrocytoma cell line SHG140: cell proliferation, cell phenotype, karyotype, STR markers and tumorigenicity analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Primary tumor Cell was an important tool for tumor research. Here, a new astrocytoma cell line SHG-140 was established and its proliferation, phenotype, karyotype, STR authentication, pathological characteristics, and characteristics of the cells' intrancranial xenografts of nude mice were studied. Methods: Primary SHG-140 culture was performed in DMEM/F12 medium with 10% FBS. Cell proliferation, karyotype analysis, cell immunofluorescence and STR authentication of SHG140 cells were performed. HE staining and immunohistochemistry, Whole oncogene high flux sequencing of the patient sample were carried out. SHG140 cells were injected into the brain of nude mice, HE staining and immunohistochemistry of intracranial xenograft tumor were detected. Results: Cell immunofluorescence demonstrated that SHG140 cells were positive for A2B5 (Glial precursors ganglioside), GFAP (Glial fibrillary acidic protein), Nestin, S-100 (Acid calcium bingding protein), Olig2 (Oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2) and Ki67 (Nuclear-associated antigen), cells negatively stained for Vimentin. Cell proliferation curve revealed that SHG140 proliferated slightly within 48 h, which then significantly proliferated to the fourth day. Karyotype analysis demonstrated its total number of chromosomes was 55, having trisomy of chromosome 6, 7, 8, 9 and X, and tetrad of chromosome 1 and 21, chromosomal deletion and rearrangement were observed. STR markers analysis showed the cells were derived from human male. SHG140 cells had tumorigenic properties - the intracranial injection of these cells into nude mice gave rise to growing tumors. We found that the glioma tissue was diffusively positive for GFAP, Nestin, slightly positive for Olig2, S-100; the positive rate of Ki-67 was 65% and negative for Vimentin. SHG140 cells were tumorigenic, GFAP, Nestin, S-100 Olig-2, the proliferation marker Ki-67 were expressed in its intracranial xenograft, Vimentin was negative expressed. Whole oncogene high flux sequencing of the patient tissue showed TP53, PTEN, IDH1 and PTCH1 mutation were existed. Conclusions: Our study showed that SHG140 was an astrocytoma glioma continuous cell line derived from a human adult male, having a strong tumorigenicity in nude mice, which made it wound be a useful model for the study of human glioblastoma multiforme.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms underlying spontaneous neoplastic transformation in cultured mammalian cells remain poorly understood, confounding recognition of parallels with the biology of naturally occurring cancer. The broad use of tumorigenic canine cell lines as research tools, coupled with the accumulation of cytogenomic data from naturally occurring canine cancers, makes the domestic dog an ideal system in which to investigate these relationships. We developed a canine kidney cell line, CKB1-3T7, which allows prospective examination of the onset of spontaneous immortalization and tumorigenicity. We documented the accumulation of cytogenomic aberrations in CKB1-3T7 over 24 months in continuous culture. The majority of aberrations emerged in parallel with key phenotypic changes in cell morphology, growth kinetics, and tumor incidence and latency. Focal deletion of CDKN2A/B emerged first, preceding the onset and progression of tumorigenic potential, and progressed to a homozygous deletion across the cell population during extended culture. Interestingly, CKB1-3T7 demonstrated a tumorigenic phenotype in vivo prior to exhibiting loss of contact inhibition in vitro. We also performed the first genome-wide characterization of the canine tumorigenic cell line MDCK, which also exhibited CDKN2A/B deletion. MDCK and CKB1-3T7 cells shared several additional aberrations that we have reported previously as being highly recurrent in spontaneous canine cancers, many of which, as with CDKN2A/B deletion, are evolutionarily conserved in their human counterparts. The conservation of these molecular events across multiple species, in vitro and in vivo, despite their contrasting karyotypic architecture, is a powerful indicator of a common mechanism underlying emerging neoplastic activity. Through integrated cytogenomic and phenotypic characterization of serial passages of CKB1-3T7 from initiation to development of a tumorigenic phenotype, we present a robust and readily accessible model (to be made available through the American Type Culture Collection) of spontaneous neoplastic transformation that overcomes many of the limitations of earlier studies.

Project description:Neurofibromatosis type-1 is a familial genetic syndrome associated with a predisposition to develop peripheral and central nervous system neoplasms. We have previously reported on a subset of gliomas developing in these patients with morphologic features resembling subependymal giant cell astrocytoma, but the molecular features of these tumors remain undefined. A total of 14 tumors were studied and all available slides were reviewed. Immunohistochemical stains and telomere-specific FISH were performed on all cases. In addition, next-generation sequencing was performed on 11 cases using a platform targeting 644 cancer-related genes. The average age at diagnosis was 28 years (range: 4-60, 9F/5M). All tumors involved the supratentorial compartment. Tumors were predominantly low grade (n = 12), with two high-grade tumors, and displayed consistent expression of glial markers. Next-generation sequencing demonstrated inactivating NF1 mutations in 10 (of 11) cases. Concurrent TSC2 and RPTOR mutations were present in two cases (1 sporadic and 1 neurofibromatosis type-1-associated). Interestingly, alternative lengthening of telomeres was present in 4 (of 14) (29%) cases. However, an ATRX mutation associated with aberrant nuclear ATRX expression was identified in only one (of four) cases with alternative lenghtening of telomeres. Gene variants in the DNA helicase RECQL4 (n = 2) and components of the Fanconi anemia complementation group (FANCD2, FANCF, FANCG) (n = 1) were identified in two alternative lenghtening of telomere-positive/ATRX-intact cases. Other variants involved genes related to NOTCH signaling, DNA maintenance/repair pathways, and epigenetic modulators. There were no mutations identified in DAXX, PTEN, PIK3C genes, TP53, H3F3A, HIST1H3B, or in canonical hotspots of IDH1, IDH2, or BRAF. A subset of subependymal giant cell astrocytoma-like astrocytomas are alternative lenghtening of telomere-positive and occur in the absence of ATRX alterations, thereby suggesting mutations in other DNA repair/maintenance genes may also facilitate alternative lenghtening of telomeres. These findings suggest that subependymal giant cell astrocytoma-like astrocytoma represents a biologically distinct group that merits further investigation.

Project description:Aims: PARK2 mutation is originally associated with the progression of Parkinson's disease. In recent years, PARK2 has been reported as a tumor suppressor gene in various cancers, including lung cancer. However, the biological functions and potential molecular mechanisms of PARK2 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are still unclear. Methods: The level of PARK2 expression in 32 tissue samples of NSCLC and matched non-tumor lung tissues was detected by Western blot, and 64 specimens of NSCLC tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. H1299 and H460 cell lines were used to PARK2 overexpression models, and H460 cell line was also used to PARK2 knockdown model. Using cell viability, colony formation, cell cycle, apoptosis, migration, and invasion assay, the biological functions of PARK2 were evaluated and the potential molecular mechanism of PARK2 was investigated in vitro. Meanwhile, 22 nude mice were employed for in vivo studies. Results: Western blot analysis revealed a decrease of PARK2 protein expression in human NSCLC samples. Immunohistochemistry also identified a vastly reduced expression of PARK2 in NSCLC (72%) and low PARK2 expression was significantly associated with tumor histological grade, lymph node metastasis and advanced TNM stage. Overexpression of PARK2 suppressed cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion, arrested cell cycle progression in the G1 phase, and induced apoptosis in human non-small cell lines H1299 and H460 in vitro. Meanwhile, knockdown of PARK2 had the opposite biological functions. In addition, PARK2 significantly decreased the tumor volumes in subcutaneous xenograft model and reduced the incidence of metastatic tumors in the transfer model. Exploration of the molecular mechanism of PARK2 in NSCLC showed that PARK2 negatively regulated the EGFR/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Conclusions: PARK2 was an important tumor suppressor in NSCLC, which might inhibit cancer growth and metastases through the down regulation of the EGFR/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.
