Project description:In this study, we profiled the change of gene expression by p53 knock-down on anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) cell line, KAT-18 cells using Applied Biosystem's Microarrays. When compared with the untreated control KAT-18 cells, 2,926 genes were found to have altered expression levels of 2-fold or more in cells treated with antisense p53 oligonucleotide. Microarray analysis revealed that p53 knock-down modified the expression of numerous apoptosis-related genes. Among those genes, 33 apoptosis pathway activators and 20 apoptosis pathway repressors were identified. We analyzed human thyroid carcinoma cell (KAT18) on Applied Biosystem Human 1700 Chip Arrays. There were control and test sample, respectively, KAT18 untreated and treated antisense p53.

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) has among the worst prognosis of any solid malignancy. The low incidence of the disease has in part precluded systematic clinical trials and tissue collection, and there has been little progress in developing effective therapies. BRAF and TP53 mutations co-occur in a high proportion of ATC, particularly those associated with a precursor papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). In order to develop an adult-onset model of BRAF-mutant anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, we generated a novel thyroid-specific CreER transgenic mouse. We utilize a Cre-regulated BrafV600E mouse and a conditional Trp53 allelic series to demonstrate that p53 constrains progression from papillary to anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. Gene expression and immunohistochemical analyses of murine tumors identified the cardinal features of human ATC including loss of differentiation, local invasion, distant metastasis and rapid lethality. We employed small animal ultrasound imaging to monitor autochthonous tumors, and show that treatment with the selective BRAF inhibitor PLX4720 improved survival, but did not lead to tumor regression or suppress signaling through the MAPK pathway. Combination of PLX4720 and the MEK inhibitor PD0325901 more completely suppressed MAPK pathway activation in mouse and human ATC cell lines, and improved the structural response and survival of ATC-bearing animals. This model expands the limited repertoire of autochthonous models of clinically aggressive thyroid cancer, and these data suggest that small molecule MAPK pathway inhibitors hold clinical promise in the treatment of advanced thyroid carcinoma. Total RNA from five murine papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) tumors and five murine anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) tumors was analyzed.

Project description:The E3 SUMO ligase PIAS2 is expressed at high levels in differentiated papillary thyroid carcinomas but at low levels in anaplastic thyroid carcinomas (ATC), an undifferentiated cancer with very high mortality. Double-stranded RNA–directed RNA interference (dsRNAi) targeting the PIAS2 isoform beta (PIAS2b) inhibits growth of ATC cell lines and patient primary cultures in vitro and orthotopic patient-derived xenografts (oPDX) in vivo, but not of thyroid cell lines or non-anaplastic primary thyroid cultures (differentiated carcinoma, benign lesions, or normal). PIAS2b-dsRNAi also has an anti-cancer effect on other anaplastic human cancers (pancreas, lung, and gastric). Mechanistically, PIAS2b is required for proper mitotic spindle and centrosome assembly, and it is a dosage-sensitive protein in ATC. Strikingly, PIAS2b-dsRNAi induces mitotic catastrophe at prophase. High-throughput proteomics revealed the proteasome (PSMC5) and spindle cytoskeleton as direct targets of PIAS2b SUMOylation at mitotic initiation. PIAS2b-dsRNAi is a promising therapy for ATC and other aggressive anaplastic cancers.

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is a rare but deadly form of thyroid cancer. Hypoxia is frequent in aggressive solid tumors like ATC and can promote resistance to therapy via the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway. miR-210 has been previously identified as a direct target of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) and is upregulated in many solid tumors. Here we show that miR-210 expression is upregulated in ATC cell line SW136 in hypoxia relative to normoxia. Identifying and targeting hypoxic cells is an attractive approach to detecting and treating ATC.

Project description:Thyroid cancer is the most frequently observed endocrine-related malignancy among which anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is the most fatal subtype. The synthesis of protein is exuberant to satisfy the rapid growth of ATC tumor, but the mechanisms regulating protein synthesis are still unknown. Our research revealed that kinetochore protein NUF2 played an essential role in protein synthesis and drove the progression of ATC. The prognosis of patients with thyroid carcinoma was positively correlated with high NUF2 expression. Depletion of NUF2 in ATC cells notably inhibited the proliferation and induced apoptosis, while overexpression of NUF2 facilitated ATC cell viability and clone formation. Loss of NUF2 significantly suppressed ATC growth in both zebrafish and nude mouse models. Notably, knockdown of NUF2 epigenetically inhibited the expression of magnesium transporters through reducing the abundance of H3K4me3 at promoters, thereby reduced intracellular Mg2+ concentration. Furthermore, we found the deletion of NUF2 or magnesium transporters significantly inhibited the protein synthesis mediated by the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. In conclusion, NUF2 functions as an emerging regulator for protein synthesis by maintaining the homeostasis of intracellular Mg2+, which finally drives ATC progression.

Project description:Laminin-5 gamma-2 (LAMC2) is highly expressed in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma and associated with tumor progression, migration and invasion by modulating signaling of EGFR LAMC2 was highly expressed in ATC samples and cell lines compared to normal thyroid tissues. Silencing LAMC2 by shRNA in ATC cells moderately inhibited cell growth in liquid culture and dramatically decreased growth in soft agar and in xenografts growing in immunodeficient mice. Silencing LAMC2 caused cell cycle arrest and significantly suppressed migration, invasion and wound healing of ATC cells. Rescue experiments by overexpressing LAMC2 in LAMC2 knockdown cells, reversed the inhibitory effects as shown by increased cell proliferation and colony formation. Microarray data demonstrated that LAMC2 shRNA significantly altered expression of genes associated with migration, invasion, proliferation and survival. Immunoprecipitation studies showed that LAMC2 was bound to EGFR in ATC cells. Silencing of LAMC2 partially blocked EGF-mediated activation of EGFR and its downstream pathway. Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is an aggressive malignancy having no effective treatment. Laminin subunit gamma-2 (LAMC2) is an epithelial basement membrane protein involved in cell migration and tumour invasion and might represent an ideal target for the development of novel therapeutic approaches for ATC. LAMC2 was highly expressed in ATC samples and cell lines compared to normal thyroid tissues. Silencing LAMC2 by shRNA in ATC cells moderately inhibited cell growth in liquid culture and dramatically decreased growth in soft agar and in xenografts growing in immunodeficient mice.

Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cell lines (HTH83 and TL3) were infected with scrambled shRNA and LAMC2 shRNA and stable clones from each cell line were generated and used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Illumina Microarray. We compared scrambled shRNA stable cells with LAMC2 shRNA stable cells.

Project description:The deadliest anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) often transforms from indolent differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), however the complex intra-tumor transformation process is poorly understood. We investigated an anaplastic transformation model by dissecting both cell lineage and cell fate transitions using single cell transcriptomes and genetic alterations data of patients with different subtypes of thyroid cancer. The resulting model started from stress-responsive DTC cells to inflammatory ATC cells, to mitotic defective ATC cells and extended all the way to mesenchymal ATC cells. In parallel with tumor cell evolution, macrophages shifted from anti-tumor to tumor-promoting states and T cells reprogrammed from cytotoxic to exhausted states. Further, our analysis identified two important milestones: 1) diploid stage, where ATC cells were commonly diploids with non-RAS mutations and inflammatory phenotypes. 2) aneuploid stage, where ATC cells gained aneuploidy with frequent RAS mutations and mesenchymal phenotypes leading to the extreme lethal stage of ATC progression.
