Transcriptome analysis of novel CPT-CEF-treated HT29 colon cancer cells to evaluate drug cytotoxicity
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose: To identify differentially expressed genes in HT29 colon cancer cells after treatment with a novel formulation of camptothecin with β-cyclodextrin-EDTA-Fe3O4 nanoparticle-conjugated nanocarriers (CPT-CEF) Methods:Treated HT29 cell lines with CPT-CEF, isolated total RNA from HT29 colon cancer cells, and prepared library for RNA sequencing. Carried out comparative transcriptomic studies between treated and untreated cells to find out which gene functions were dysregulated by CPT-CEF. Results: The study yielded 247 DEGs ((FDR<0.05, FC>2.0) that were affected by CPT-CEF treatment in the HT29 colon cancer cells. The results obtained from cell cycle analysis, mitochondrial depolarization assay and acridium orange/propidium iodide double staining showed potential of CPT-CEF in cancer cell inhibition. Conclusion: Our study successfully identified DEGs in the CPT-CEF treated HT29 colon cancer cells that pointed to inhibition of cancer progression. To further affirm, animal studies are needed.
