Transcription profiling of human cytokine induced A172 glioblastoma cells treated with erstressin and nostressin

ABSTRACT: The unfolded protein response (UPR), a signaling pathway triggered by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, is induced by a range of environmental factors. Here we describe the identification and characterization of a synthetic small molecule, erstressin, which activates the UPR. Erstressin induced rapid phosphorylation of PERK and eIF2a and the alternative splicing of XBP-1, hallmark initiating events of the UPR. Further, erstressin activated the transcription of multiple genes involved in the UPR. Coincident with these effects, erstressin also downregulated the transcription of the inflammation-associated enzyme inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in cytokine-activated cells. A close analog of erstressin that failed to induce the UPR did not attenuate expression of iNOS, suggesting that both biological effects of erstressin were mediated by a common mechanism. Further, the structurally-distinct ER stressor thapsigargin also inhibited iNOS expression. Together these chemical genetic studies reveal an unanticipated anti-inflammatory role for the UPR. Experiment Overall Design: We utilized microarrays to understand the global effect of a novel compund, erstressin, on cytokine stimulated cells over time.

shRNA profiling of human DZNep-treated glioblastoma multiforme cancer stem cells

Project description:Overexpression of the Polycomb group protein Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2) occurs in diverse malignancies, including prostate cancer, breast cancer, and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) (1). Based on its ability to modulate transcription of key genes implicated in cell cycle control, DNA repair and cell differentiation, EZH2 is believed to play a crucial role in tissue-specific stem cell maintenance and tumor development. Here we show that targeted pharmacologic disruption of EZH2 by the S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase inhibitor 3-Deazaneplanocin A (DZNep), or its specific down-regulation by shRNA, strongly impairs GBM cancer stem cell self-renewal in vitro and tumor-initiating capacity in vivo. Using genome-wide expression analysis of DZNep-treated GBM cancer stem cells, we found the expression of c-myc, recently reported to be essential for GBM cancer stem cells, to be strongly repressed upon EZH2 depletion. Specific shRNA-mediated down-regulation of EZH2 in combination with chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments revealed that c-myc is a direct target of EZH2 in GBM cancer stem cells. Taken together, our observations provide evidence that direct transcriptional regulation of c-myc by EZH2 may constitute a novel mechanism underlying GBM cancer stem cell maintenance and suggest that EZH2 may be a valuable new therapeutic target for GBM management. Experiment Overall Design: Three samples of cancer stem-cell enriched gliospheres from primary glioblastoma multiforme cell cultures were treated with DZNep. Untreated gliospheres from the same cultures were used as controls.

Project description:Cord blood-derived stem cells were in vitro cultured in the presence of 40 ng/ml SCF, 20 ng/ml IL6 and 2 microM lysophosphatidic acid for 5 week. Then mast cells were magnetically isolated and further cultured for 4 days in the presence or absence of 2 ng/ml TGF-betaI. Total RNA was isolated and processed according to the Agilent Low-input RNA Linear Amplification Kit and microarray hybridization protocol.

Transcription profiling by array of human MCF cells treated with estrogen

Project description:The estrogen receptor is the master transcriptional regulator of breast cancer phenotype and the archetype of a molecular therapeutic target. We mapped all estrogen receptor and RNA polymerase II binding sites on a genome-wide scale, identifying the authentic cis binding sites and target genes, in breast cancer cells. Combining this unique resource with gene expression data demonstrates distinct temporal mechanisms of estrogen-mediated gene regulation,particularly in the case of estrogen-suppressed genes. Furthermore, this resource has allowed the identification of cis-regulatory sites in previously unexplored regions of the genome and the cooperating transcription factors underlying estrogen signaling in breast cancer. Experiment Overall Design: This Series currently contains the gene expression data accompaning Carroll JS et al. Nature Genetics 38,1289-1297(2006). MCF7 cells were stimulated with 100 nM estrogen for 0, 3, 6, or 12h. All experiments were performed in triplicate.

Transcription profiling by array of human glioblastoma cell lines

Project description:We compared a large panel of human glioblastoma stem-like (GS) cell lines, corresponding primary tumors and conventional glioma cell lines to identify cell lines that preserve the transcriptome of human glioblastomas most closely, thereby allowing identification of shared therapeutic targets. We used Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays to compare human glioblastoma stem-like (GS) cell lines, corresponding primary tumors and conventional glioma cell lines. We extracted total RNA from 32 conventional glioma cell lines, 12 GS cell lines (8 in two different passages), 7 clonal sublines derived from two GS lines, 12 original tumors, and 4 monolayer cultures established from the same tumors as GS-lines using standard serum conditions.

Transcription profiling by array of human glioblastoma cell lines

Project description:Recent studies demonstrated that tumor cells with stem cell-like properties can be cultured from human glioblastomas by using conditions that select for the expansion of neural stem cells. We established glioblastoma stem-like (GS-) cell cultures from 9 different glioblastomas, 8 of which generated stably expandable cell lines. Analyzing GS-cell cultures, we discovered two clearly discernable phenotypes. Microarray analysis showed that the 4 GSf cell lines shared expression profiles dominated by genes involved in nervous system development and neuropeptide signaling, while the 5 GSr lines shared expression signatures enriched for extracellular matrix-proteins. Experiment Overall Design: Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 chips were employed for expression profiling from 9 different glioblasoma derived neurosphere cultures in two biological replicates.

Transcription profiling of human HMLER breast cancer cells treated with paclitaxel and salinomycin-treated HMLER breast cancer cells

Project description:Screens for agents that specifically kill epithelial cancer stem cells (CSCs) have not been possible due to the rarity of these cells within tumor cell populations and their relative instability in culture. We describe here an approach to screening for agents with epithelial CSC-specific toxicity. We implemented this method in a chemical screen and discovered compounds showing selective toxicity for breast CSCs. One compound, salinomycin, reduces the proportion of CSCs by >100-fold relative to paclitaxel, a commonly used breast cancer chemotherapeutic drug. Treatment of mice with salinomycin inhibits mammary tumor growth in vivo and induces increased epithelial differentiation of tumor cells. In addition, global gene expression analyses show that salinomycin treatment results in the loss of expression of breast CSC genes previously identified by analyses of breast tissues isolated directly from patients. This study demonstrates the ability to identify agents with specific toxicity for epithelial CSCs Experiment Overall Design: Experimentally transformed HMLER breast cancer cells were treated in culture with either paclitaxel (10nM) or salinomycin (1uM) for one week. There were three biologic replicates for each treatment condition.
