Project description:This study confirmed the radiosensitizing effects of surufatinib on cholangiocarcinoma. The mechanism is that surufatinib can activate TLR3, up-regulate the expression of TRIF protein, increase DNA damage and apoptosis after radiation, and up-regulate NF- κB signal pathway to inhibit M2 polarization of tumor-associated macrophages, thus enhance radiosensitivity.
Project description:Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are rare and heterogeneous tumors presenting a wide spectrum of different clinical and biological characteristics. In these tumors, the histological evaluation is a crucial element of clinical management. Currently, tumor grading, determined by Ki-67 staining and mitotic counts, is the most reliable predictor of prognosis. This scoring method is time-consuming and a high reproducibility cannot be achieved. Novel approaches are needed to support histological evaluation and prognosis. In this study, starting from a microarray analysis, we defined the miRNAs signature for poorly differentiated NETs (G3) compared to well differentiated NETs (G1 and G2) consisting of 56 deregulated miRNAs. Moreover, we identified 8 miRNAs that were expressed in all GEP-NETs grades but at different level. Among these miRNAs, we found miR-96-5p that raised its expression levels from grade 1 to grade 3; inversely, its target FOXO1 was decrease from grade 1 to grade 3. Our results reveal that the miRNAs expression profile of GEP-NET correlates their expression with grading showing a potential advantage of miRNA quantification to aid clinicians in the classification of common GEP-NETs subtypes.
Project description:Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) arise from serotonin-producing enterochromaffin cells. SI-NETs are often well-differentiated tumors and most patients have regional or distant metastases at initial presentation. MicroRNAs (miRs) are post-transcriptional regulators which are important in diverse biological processes and can function as tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes. This study aims to identify an exclusive SI-NETs miR profile that may have a critical role in development, diagnosis, prognosis and progression of these malignancies.
Project description:Gene expression profiles of primary neuroendocrine tumors treated or not with 1µM Octreotide.We investigated 5 human neuroendocrine cell lines, CNDT2.5 and KRJ1, established from ileum NETs, QGP1 by a pancreatic NET, NCI H720 and NCI H727 from bronchopulmonary NETs. CNDT2.5 cell wereconstantly treated with 1µM octreotide for 10 and 16 months. We isolated total RNA (Ambion, PARIS Kit) from 5 WT cell lines and CNDT2.5 treated with octreotide (Santostatin, Novartis). Total RNA was hybridized onto the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array by Affymetrix Uppsala Platform, UU. SE (Uppsala, Sweden). We first wanted to verify whether the different cell lines may become reliable models to study neuroendocrine signaling pathways. The main objective of this project aimed at understanding the mechanisms by which octreotide (Sandostatin, Novartis) alter cellular growth and differentiation of CNDT2.5 cells. We therefore focused on intermediate (10 months) and long stimulation (16 months) events triggered by sandostatin, which lead variation of CNDT.2.5 cells gene expression to identify potential pivotal genes involved in the development of drug resistance in neuroendocrine cells.
Project description:The management of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) is very variable, depending on many specific aspects, such as the type of tumor, spread and patient general health. Several advances have been made with the newly developed somatostatin analogues to cure this type of malignancies. Somatostain analogues such as octreotide have been used in clinic to treat patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). However, the molecular mechanism leading either to successful therapy or acquired resistance to the analogues is still to large extent unclear. Patients develop drugs resistance during a long term treatment. Therefore, to identify the pivotal regulatory genes involved in the development of drug resistance is an actual challenge. We studied five human neuroendocrine tumor cell lines, CNDT2.5, KRJ1, QGP-1, NCI H720 and NCI H727. We also investigated a long-term treated CNDT2.5 by using octreotide. We performed gene expression profiling in all the human neuroendocrine cell lines. Keywords: Gene Expression profiling, treatment comparison We investigated 5 human neuroendocrine cell lines, CNDT2.5 and KRJ1, established from ileum NETs, QGP1 by a pancreatic NET, NCI H720 and NCI H727 from bronchopulmonary NETs. CNDT2.5 cell were constantly treated with 1M-BM-5M octreotide for 10 and 16 months. We isolated total RNA (Ambion, PARISM-bM-^DM-" Kit) from 5 WT cell lines and CNDT2.5 treated with octreotide (Santostatin, Novartis).

Project description:This study aims to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and recommended Phase 3 dose (RP3D) of RYZ101 in Part 1, and the safety, efficacy, and PK of RYZ101 compared with investigator-selected standard of care (SoC) therapy in Part 2 in subjects with inoperable, advanced, well-differentiated, somatostatin receptor expressing (SSTR+) gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) that have progressed following treatment with Lutetium 177-labelled somatostatin analogue (177Lu-SSA) therapy, such as 177Lu-DOTATATE or 177Lu-DOTATOC (177Lu-DOTATATE/TOC), or 177Lu-high affinity [HA]-DOTATATE.

Five human NET cell lines, one octreotide-treated CNDT2.5 cells, one microdissected normal enterochromaffin cells, three snap-frozen normal ileum specimens and 15 SI-NET specimens at different stage of malignancy, five primary tumors, five mesentery metastases and five liver metastases, were included in this study. Total RNA was hybridized onto Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. miR arrays for genome-wide profiling. Array data summarization, normalization, and quality control were performed using miRNA QC Tool software.
Project description:Assessment of mesenteric fibrosis (MF) presence and severity in small-intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) remains a diagnostic challenge. To explore possible biomarkers for MF presence, a proteomic analysis was performed of the tumor and stroma compartment of primary SI-NETs and paired mesenteric metastasis.
