Project description:MiR-33a is involved in the maintenance of Glioma Initiating Cells (GIC) and tumor progression. MicroRNA-33a could promote GIC growth and self-renewal by regulating two pathways including cAMP/PKA pathway and Notch pathway. We used microarrays to identify the direct target genes of miR-33a in a glioblastoma cell line D456MG. We used microarrays to detail the global change of gene expression after miR-33a over-expression and identified target genes during this process.

We used microarrays to detail the global change of gene expression after miR-33a over-expression and identified target genes during this process. Cells were infected with lenti-virus expressing a control vector (pWPXLD) or human primary miR-33a. Then RNA was extracted and gene expression was profiled by Affymetrix microarray.

Project description:Given the very substantial heterogeneity of most human cancers, it is likely that most cancer therapeutics will be active in only a small fraction of any population of patients. As such, the development of new therapeutics, coupled with methods to match a therapy with the individual patient, will be critical to achieving significant gains in disease outcome. One such opportunity is the use of expression signatures to identify key oncogenic phenotypes that can serve not only as biomarkers but also as a means of identifying therapeutic compounds that might specifically target these phenotypes. Given the potential importance of targeting tumors exhibiting a stem-like phenotype, we have developed an expression signature that reflects common biological aspects of various stem-like characteristics. The Consensus Stemness Ranking (CSR) signature is upregulated in cancer stem cell enriched samples, at advanced tumor stages and is associated with poor prognosis in multiple cancer types. Using two independent computational approaches we utilized the CSR signature to identify clinically useful compounds that could target the CSR phenotype. In vitro assays confirmed selectivity of several predicted compounds including topoisomerase inhibitors and resveratrol towards breast cancer cell lines that exhibit a high-CSR phenotype. Importantly, the CSR signature could predict clinical response of breast cancer patients to a neoadjuvant regimen that included a CSR-specific agent. Collectively, these results suggest therapeutic opportunities to target the CSR phenotype in a relevant cohort of cancer patients. CD133+ and CD133- cells were separated from two glioma xenograft tumors. Both CD133+ and CD133- glioma cells were cultured in serum-free media for 48 hours in the presence of absence of laminin.

Project description:Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), a uniformly lethal stage IV astrocytoma, is currently treated with a combination of surgical and radiation therapy as well as Temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy. Resistance to TMZ is rapidly acquired by GBM cells and overcoming this resistance has been an area of signi?cant research. GBM 'cancer stem cells' (CSC) also known as 'cancer initiating cells' are often positively selected by CD133 expression and TMZ resistance. In this project, we selected GBM CSC from two cell lines based on CD133 expression. CD133+ and CD133- GBM cells showed comparable cell cycle status. The expression of genes within the Sonic Hedgehog Signaling pathway, PTCH1 (SHH receptor/basal signaling repressor) and Gli1 (effector transcription factor) were increased. The recent literature indicated a decreased in PTCH expression by miRNA and this was independent of SHH expression. We analyzed 5 potential PTCH-targeting miRNA and identi?ed an increase in miRNA-9-2. The CD133+ cells showed an increase in the Multiple Drug Resistance 1 gene (MDR1). Knockdown of Gli1 and MDR1 with siRNA enhanced TMZ induced cell death. Taken together, these studies show CD133+ GBM CSCs expressed greater levels of miR-9 and activation of the SHH/PTCH1/MDR1 axis. This axis has been shown to impart TMZ resistance. In the case of the CD133+ cells, the resistance is not acquires but seems to be inherent. Identi?cation of this pathway as well as the identi?cation of miR-9 may allow for the development of miRNA-targeted approach to Cancer Stem Cell therapy in GBM.

Project description:Adult renal progenitor cells (ARPCs) were recently identified in the cortex of the renal parenchyma and it was demonstrated that they were positive for PAX2, CD133, CD24 and exhibited multipotent differentiation ability. Recent studies on stem cells indicated that microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of noncoding small RNAs that participate in the regulation of gene expression, may play a key role in stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. Distinct sets of miRNAs are specifically expressed in pluripotent stem cells but not in adult tissues, suggesting a role for miRNAs in stem cell self-renewal. We compared miRNA expression profiles of ARPCs with that of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and renal proximal tubular cells (RPTECs) finding distinct sets of miRNAs that were specifically expressed in ARPCs. In particular, miR-1915 and miR-1225-5p regulated the expression of important markers of renal progenitors, such as CD133 and PAX2, and important genes involved in the repair mechanisms of ARPCs, such as TLR2. We demonstrated that the expression of both the renal stem cell markers CD133 and PAX2 depends on lower miR-1915 levels and that the increase of miR-1915 levels improved capacity of ARPCs to differentiate into adipocyte-like and epithelial-like cells. Finally, we found that the low levels of miR-1225-5p were responsible for high TLR2 expression in ARPCs. Therefore, together, miR-1915 and miR-1225-5p seem to regulate important traits of renal progenitors: the stemness and the repair capacity.

Project description:Colon cancer stem cells are believed to originate from a rare population of putative CD133+ intestinal stem cells. Recent publications suggest that a small subset of colon cancer cells expresses CD133, and that only these CD133+ cancer cells are capable of tumor initiation. However, the precise contribution of CD133+ tumor-initiating cells in mediating colon cancer metastasis remains unknown. Therefore, to temporally and spatially track the expression of CD133 in adult mice and during tumorigenesis, we generated a knockin lacZ reporter mouse (CD133lacZ/+), in which the expression of lacZ is driven by the endogenous CD133 promoters. Using this model and immunostaining, we discovered that CD133 expression in colon is not restricted to stem cells; on the contrary, CD133 is ubiquitously expressed on differentiated colonic epithelium in both adult mice and humans. Using Il10-/-CD133lacZ mice, in which chronic inflammation in colon leads to adenocarcinomas, we demonstrated that CD133 is expressed on a full gamut of colonic tumor cells, which express epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM). Similarly, CD133 is widely expressed by human primary colon cancer epithelial cells, whereas the CD133- population is composed mostly of stromal and inflammatory cells. Conversely, CD133 expression does not identify the entire population of epithelial and tumor-initiating cells in human metastatic colon cancer. Indeed, both CD133+ and CD133- metastatic tumor subpopulations formed colonospheres in in vitro cultures and were capable of long-term tumorigenesis in a NOD/SCID serial xenotransplantation model. Moreover, metastatic CD133- cells form more aggressive tumors and express typical phenotypic markers of cancer-initiating cells, including CD44 (CD44+CD24-), whereas the CD133+ fraction is composed of CD44lowCD24+ cells. Collectively, our data suggest that CD133 expression is not restricted to intestinal stem or cancer-initiating cells, and during the metastatic transition, CD133+ tumor cells might give rise to the more aggressive CD133(- )subset, which is also capable of tumor initiation in NOD/SCID mice.

Project description:BackgroundCirculating hematopoietic progenitors (HPCs) are involved in inflammatory diseases such as atherosclerosis, the immune response to cancer, and disorders of the hematopoietic system. HPC characterization by flow cytometry typically utilizes CD34 in combination with other cell surface markers to identify cell populations that give rise to specific hematopoietic lineages. CD133, also known as prominin-1, is a cell surface protein found in HPCs that has a similar but not interchangeable expression pattern with CD34 for characterization of HPC populations. Our goal was to determine the distribution of CD133 expression within HPC sub-types amongst circulating CD34+ cells.MethodsThe quantity of different HPC populations within the CD34+ CD133+ and CD34+ CD133- fractions of venous blood obtained from healthy human subjects was measured using multicolor flow cytometry.ResultsThe majority of circulating CD34+ cells is CD133-. CD133+ CD34+ cells express low levels of CD38, contain cell populations bearing cell surface markers of hematopoietic stem cells, multipotent progenitors, and multilymphoid progenitors, and are largely devoid of CD38 expressing lineage specified progenitors. These findings clarify the composition of circulating CD133+ CD34+ cell types in adult human subjects. © 2018 International Clinical Cytometry Society.
