Project description:NEK2 overexpression in the B cell lineage affects B cell development. To determine whether deficiency of NEK2 inhibits B cell malignancies, we crossed Nek2 knockout mice with Eμ-myc transgenic mice, a well-established Myc-driven preclinical model for B cell malignancies. Three genotyping offsprings were obtained: Eμ-myc/Nek2+/+ (NEK2 wild type), Eμ-myc/Nek2+/- (NEK2 heterozygotes), and Eμ-myc/Nek2-/- (NEK2 homozygotes). Bulk RNA-seq was performed on CD19-selected spleen B cells to view the transcriptome differences.

Project description:Drug resistance is a major obstacle in cancer therapy. The molecular mechanisms of drug resistance still remain largely elusive. Microarray analyses on paired primary myeloma samples at baseline and after therapy or at relapse showed that NEK2 was one of the most up-regulated genes in myeloma cells after high-dose chemotherapy or at relapse. By analyzing the published (> 2,500) microarrays and clinical datasets, we found that NEK2 expression is increased in many malignancies, and that high expression of NEK2 was associated with a shorter event-free and overall survival. Moreover, NEK2 expression was typically increased in tumors with aggressive subtype and advanced TNM stage. Our studies indicate that over-expressing NEK2 in cancer cells resulted in enhanced cell proliferation and drug resistance, whereas knockdown of NEK2 induced significant cancer cell death and growth inhibition. We found that NEK2 over-expression activates cell cycle progression and cell division through the stimulation of cell cycling genes CDC2/CCNB1 and PBK. Interestingly, NEK2-overexpression also activated the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. We conclude that NEK2 represents a predictor for drug resistance and poor prognosis in cancers and could be a potential target for cancer therapy. Experiment Overall Design: Myeloma tumor cells from bone marrow aspirates were collected at baseline and after chemotherapy (pre-1st and pre-2nd bone marrow transplant, and pre-consolidation) for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to define genes related to chemotheraputic resistance.

Project description:We report that NEK2 protein level is overexpressed and correlated with the tumor stage and lymph node metastasis in cervical cancer. Furthermore, we provided evidence that NEK2-depleted cervical cancer cells exhibit impaired oncogenesis and enhanced radiosensitivity. Using RNA sequencing, we identify Wnt1 as a key downstream effector of NEK2. Knockdown of NEK2 downregulates the mRNA and protein levels of Wnt1, thereby inhibiting the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. More importantly, the observed consequences induced by NEK2 depletion in cervical cancer cells can be partially rescued by Wnt1 overexpression. Taken together, these results demonstrate that NEK2 activates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway via Wnt1 to drive oncogenesis and radioresistance in cervical cancer, indicating that NEK2 may be a promising target for the radiosensitization of cervical cancer.

Project description:NEK2 is a mitotic kinase that is upregulated and mislocalized in the nucleus of human cancer cells. NEK2 modulates expression and activity of both transcription and splicing factors in cancer cells, nevertheless whether this kinase affects transcriptome regulation genome widely and whether this activity concurs to its oncogenic activity is still unknown. Herein, by high-throughput RNA sequencing analysis of MDA-MB-231 cells transiently silenced for NEK2 we uncover an extensive modulation of triple-negative breast cancer cell transcriptome by this kinase.

Project description:One of the hallmarks of multiple myeloma (MM) is a permissive BM microenvironment. Increasing evidence suggest that cell-to-cell communication between myeloma and immune cells via tumor cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EV) plays a key role in the pathogenesis of MM. Hence, we aimed to explore BM immune alterations induced by MM-derived EV. For this, we inoculated immunocompetent BALB/cByJ mice with a myeloma cell line - MOPC315.BM -, inducing a MM phenotype. Upon tumor establishment, characterization of the BM microenvironment revealed the expression of both activation and suppressive markers by lymphocytes, such as Granzyme b and PD-1, respectively. In addition, conditioning of the animals with MOPC315.BM-derived EV, before transplantation of the MOPC315.BM tumor cells, did not anticipate the disease phenotype. However, it induced features of suppression in the BM milieu, such as an increase in PD-1 expression by CD4+ T cells. Overall, our findings reveal the involvement of MOPC315.BM-derived EV protein content as promoters of immune niche remodeling, strengthening the importance of assessing the mechanisms by which MM may impact the immune microenvironment.

Project description:Although the "seed and soil" hypothesis was proposed by Stephen Paget at the end of the 19th century, where he said that tumor cells (seeds) need a propitious medium (soil) to be able to establish metastases, only recently the tumor microenvironment started to be more studied in the field of Oncology. Multiple myeloma (MM), a malignancy of plasma cells, can be considered one of the types of cancers where there is more evidence in the literature of the central role that the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment plays, contributing to proliferation, survival, migration and drug resistance of tumor cells. Despite all advances in the therapeutic arsenal for MM treatment in the last years, the disease remains incurable. Thus, studies aiming a better understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease, as well as searching for new therapeutic targets are necessary and welcome. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the protein expression profiling of mononuclear cells derived from BM of MM patients in comparison with these same cell types derived from healthy individuals, in order to fill this gap in MM treatment. Proteomic analysis was performed using the mass spectrometry technique and further analyses were done using bioinformatics tools, to identify dysregulated biological pathways and/or processes in the BM microenvironment of patients with MM as a result of the disease. Among the pathways identified in this study, we can highlight an upregulation of proteins related to protein biosynthesis, especially chaperone proteins, in patients with MM. Additionally, we also found an upregulation of several proteins involved in energy metabolism, which is one of the cancer hallmarks. Finally, with regard to the downregulated proteins, we can highlight mainly those involved in different pathways of the immune response, corroborating the data that has demonstrated that the immune system of MM is impaired and, therefore, the immunotherapies that have been studied recently for the treatment of the disease are extremely necessary in the search for a control and a cure for these patients who live with the disease.
