Gene Expression of A375 Cells After Fluvastatin Treatment


ABSTRACT: Despite advances in melanoma treatment, more than 70% of patients with distant metastasis die within 5 years. Proactive treatment of early melanoma to prevent metastasis could save lives and reduce overall healthcare costs. Currently, there are no treatments specifically designed to prevent early melanoma from progressing to metastasis. We used the Connectivity Map (cMap) to conduct an in silico drug screen and identified HMGCR inhibitors (statins) as a drug class that might prevent melanoma metastasis. To confirm the in vitro effect of statins, RNA-sequencing was completed on A375 cells after treatment with fluvastatin to describe changes in the melanoma transcriptome. Statins induced differential expression in genes associated with metastasis and used in commercially available prognostic tests for melanoma metastasis.
