Project description:Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is a common cause of cancer death. Despite enormous technical advances in surgery and radiotherapy in the recent decade, survival of HNSCC patients has not markedly improved, with only 30% of patients diagnosed with advanced HNSCC that will survive for 5 years. This highlights the need to look into molecular processes leading to mechanisms of HNSCC radioresistance in HNSCC and identify novel radiosensitizers. Up-regulation of the SNHG6 micropeptide is associated with radioresistance of HNSCC cells. To assess the mechanism SNHG6-mediated radioresistance, we performed transcriptome analyses of RTR61 cells expressing either siScramble, or siSNHG6.

This highlights the need to look into molecular processes leading to mechanisms of HNSCC radioresistance in HNSCC and identify novel radiosensitizers. A growing body of evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) containing small open reading frames (sORFs) produce biologically active micropeptides. We performed ribosome profilming of radiosensitive and radioresistant HNSCC cells to identify the lncRNA-encoded micropeptides differentially expressed in radioresistance cellls.

Project description:During radiotherapy most cancer cells are removed, but some cells are not. These remained cancer cells become resistant to radiotherapy and lead to cancer recurrence. Radioresistnat cancer cells show different gene expression profile than radiosensitive tumor cells. Among the genes distinctly up or down-changed in expression level, some are associated with development of radioresistance. We used microarrays to select multiple genes showing distinct change in expression level for seeking genes that contribute to the develpoment of radioresistance in breast cancer cells during radiotherapy.

Project description:Purpose: Predominant causes of head and neck cancer recurrence after radiotherapy are rapid repopulation, hypoxia, fraction of cancer stem cells and intrinsic radioresistance. Currently, intrinsic radioresistance can only be assessed by ex-vivo colony assays. Besides being time-consuming, colony assays do not identify causes of intrinsic resistance. We aimed to identify a biomarker for intrinsic radioresistance to be used before start of treatment and to reveal biological processes that could be targeted to overcome intrinsic resistance. Experimental design: We analyzed both micro- and messenger RNA expression in a large panel of HNSCC cell lines. Expression was measured on both irradiated and unirradiated samples. Results were validated using modified cell lines and a series of laryngeal cancer patients. Results: MiRs, mRNAs and gene sets that correlated with resistance could be identified from expression data of unirradiated cells. The presence of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and low expression of miRs involved in the inhibition of EMT were important radioresistance determinants. This finding was validated in two independent cell line pairs, in which the induction of EMT reduced radiosensitivity. Moreover, low expression of the most important miR (miR-203) was shown to correlate with local disease recurrence after radiotherapy in a series of laryngeal cancer patients. Conclusions: These findings indicate that EMT and low expression of EMT-inhibiting miRs, especially miR-203, measured in pre-treatment material, causes intrinsic radioresistance of HNSCC, which could enable identification and treatment modification of radioresistant tumors. Matched pairs of pre-treatment biopsies of 34 patients treated at The Netherlands Cancer Institute between 2002 and 2010. Patients with T2-3 laryngeal cancers, all treated with radiotherapy alone with a curative intent. The series was designed to be a matched cohort of 17 patients with local recurrences matched with 17 local cures. There were no significant differences between groups with and without local recurrence in age, gender, subsite, T-stage or treatment year.
