Gene expression profiling of enforced HOXA1 expression in melanoma cell line

ABSTRACT: We recently reported an oncogenomics-guided screening approach designed to identify genetic drivers of early stage melanoma metastasis, and in this study we functionally validate the top-scoring candidate, homeobox transcription factor A1 (HOXA1), by demonstrating HOXA1‘s robust effects on melanoma cell invasion, metastasis and tumorigenicity. Transcriptome and pathway profiling analyses of cells expressing HOXA1 reveal up-regulation of factors involved in diverse cytokine pathways that include the TGFβ signaling axis, which we further demonstrate to be required for HOXA1-mediated cell invasion. Transcriptome profiling also informed HOXA1’s ability to potently down-regulate expression of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) and other genes required for melanocyte differentiation, suggesting a mechanism by which HOXA1 expression de-differentiates cells into a pro-invasive precursor cell state concomitant with TGFβ activation. Our analysis of publicly available datasets indicate that the HOXA1-induced gene signature successfully categorizes melanoma specimens based on their metastatic potential and, importantly, is capable of stratifying melanoma patient risk for metastasis based on expression in primary tumors. The HOXA1-induced transcription analysis was conducted using RNAs extracted from WM115 cells transduced with either control or HOXA1, followed by hybridization of labeled cDNA onto Affymetrix GeneChips (Human Genome U133Plus2.0).

gene expression profiling of brain metastatic melanoma cell lines

Project description:Cerebral metastases occur in a majority of metastatic melanoma patients and are a major cause of mortality. Despite this, there is a poor understanding of the molecules/pathways that lead to the brain-metastatic phenotype. Studies designed to address this deficiency and test novel therapeutic approaches have until recently been slowed by an absence of preclinical models of spontaneous CNS metastatic melanoma disease. To address this, we isolated two variants of the human melanoma cell line WM239 (named 131/4-5B1 and 131/4-5B2) which can metastasize spontaneously to brain parenchyma from an orthotopic primary transplant. We have performed gene expression profiling on both brain metastatic cell lines (131/4-5B1 and 131/4-5B2) and compared to the poorly metastatic parental cell line WM239A and a derived highly metastatic variant 113/6-4L in order to examine the mechanisms that influence the progression of malignant melanoma to a brain-metastatic phenotype. Two-condition experiment, brain metastatic cell lines (131/4-5B1 and 131/4-5B2) and compared to the poorly metastatic parental cell line WM239A and a derived highly metastatic variant 113/6-4L. Biological replicates: 4 independently grown and harvested cell line passages. Two technical replicate per condition (including dye swap).

Radiation Changes the Metabolic Profiling of Melanoma Cell Line B16.

Project description:Radiation therapy can be an effective way to kill cancer cells using ionizing radiation, but some tumors are resistant to radiation therapy and the underlying mechanism still remains elusive. It is therefore necessary to establish an appropriate working model to study and monitor radiation-mediated cancer therapy. In response to cellular stress, the metabolome is the integrated profiling of changes in all metabolites in cells, which can be used to investigate radiation tolerance mechanisms and identify targets for cancer radiation sensibilization. In this study, using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance for untargeted metabolic profiling in radiation-tolerant mouse melanoma cell line B16, we comprehensively investigated changes in metabolites and metabolic network in B16 cells in response to radiation. Principal component analysis and partial least squares discriminant analysis indicated the difference in cellular metabolites between the untreated cells and X-ray radiated cells. In radiated cells, the content of alanine, glutamate, glycine and choline was increased, while the content of leucine, lactate, creatine and creatine phosphate was decreased. Enrichment analysis of metabolic pathway showed that the changes in metabolites were related to multiple metabolic pathways including the metabolism of glycine, arginine, taurine, glycolysis, and gluconeogenesis. Taken together, with cellular metabolome study followed by bioinformatic analysis to profile specific metabolic pathways in response to radiation, we deepened our understanding of radiation-resistant mechanisms and radiation sensibilization in cancer, which may further provide a theoretical and practical basis for personalized cancer therapy.

Whole-genome gene expression profiling of normal melanocytes and melanoma cell lines

Project description:Aberrant DNA methylation and histone modifications both contribute to carcinogenesis, but how these two epigenetic factors interact to impact gene expression remain unclear. To address this issue, we studied gene expression profiles, DNA methylation and two key histone modifications (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3), in two normal melanocytes (HEMn and HEMa) and two melanoma cell lines SK-MEL-28 and LOXIMVI. Using these data, we analyzed the relationship between epigenetic factors and gene expression status in both normal and melanoma cells, and the impact of epigenetic switches on gene expression change during melanomagenesis. Each of the two normal melanocytes (HEMn and HEMa) and the two melanoma cell lines SK-MEL-28 and LOXIMVI was cultured in triplicate. For each cell line, the same culture conditions and cell density were applied to the triplicates. Total RNA was extracted and microarray analysis was performed for genome-wide gene expression profiling. Using the Sentrix Human-HT12 v4 Beadchip, all four cell samples, each in triplicate, were examined in 12 individual arrays on a same beadchip. Thus, together with the data on DNA methylation and histone modifications, we could not only analyze the epigenetic regulation of gene expression in each cell sample, but also investigate the expression change associated with epigenetic changes in melanoma when compared to normal melanocytes.
