Transcriptomic analysis of melanoma cells reveals an association of α-synuclein with regulation of the inflammatory response

ABSTRACT: The Parkinson’s disease protein, alpha-synuclein (α-syn/SNCA), is highly expressed in neurons and melanomas. The goal of this study was to reveal the mechanism(s) of α-syn’s involvement in melanoma pathogenesis. To decipher the genes and pathways affected by α-syn, we conducted an RNA sequencing analysis of human SK-MEL-28 cells and several SK-MEL-28 SNCA-KO clones. We identified 1098 significantly up-regulated genes and 660 significantly down-regulated genes. Several of the upregulated genes are related to the immune system, i.e., the inflammatory response and the matrisome. We validated five upregulated genes (IL-1ý, SAA1, IGFBP5, CXCL8, and CXCL10) by RT-qPCR and detected IGFBP5 and IL-1ý in spent media of control and SNCA-KO cells. The levels of each of these secreted proteins were significantly higher in the spent media of the SNCA-KO clones than control cells. We suggest that the loss of α-syn expression unleashes chemokine/cytokine secretion, which could help melanoma cells evade the immune system.

RNA-seq analysis of SKMEL28 melanoma cells following DIRC3 and IGFBP5 ASO knockdown

Project description:We identified genes regulated by the DIRC3 long non-coding RNA and its neighbouring tumour suppressor gene IGFBP5 and determined common targets. DIRC3 and IGFBP5 were knocked down by transient transfection of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) in the human melanoma cell line Sk-Mel-28. RNA was extracted 72 hours after transfection and polyA selected 150-bp paired end RNA sequencing was performed on the Illumina HiSeq4000 .

Single cell RNA sequencing data of SNCA triplication cortical organoids

Project description:Aggregated α-synuclein (α-SYN) proteins, encoded by the SNCA gene, are hallmarks of Lewy body disease (LBD), affecting multiple brain regions. However, the specific mechanisms underlying α-SYN pathology in cortical neurons, crucial for LBD-associated dementia, remain unclear. Here, we generated human cortical LBD models by differentiating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from SNCA triplication LBD patients into cerebral organoids and observed increased levels of pathological α-SYN in these organoids. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed prominent expression of the SNCA gene in excitatory neurons, which exhibited synaptic and mitochondrial dysfunction, consistent with findings in the cortex of LBD human brains. Furthermore, screening 1280 FDA-approved drugs identified four candidates, which inhibited α-SYN seeding in RT-QuIC assay, reduced α-SYN aggregation and alleviated mitochondrial dysfunction in SNCA triplication iPSC models. Our findings provide valuable insights into the development of cortical LBD models and the discovery of potential drugs targeting α-SYN aggregation.

PDGFR-alpha inhibits melanoma growth via CXCL10/IP-10 and miR-503. A multi-omics approach.

Project description:Cutaneous melanoma is the most aggressive skin cancer showing high mortality at advanced clinical stages. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor alpha (PDGFR-alpha) is known to strongly inhibit melanoma and endothelial cells proliferation, in vitro as well in vivo. PDGFR-alpha expression has been found to be reduced in metastatic human melanoma-biopsies, as compared to benign nevi-biopsies, thus implying a negative selection of PDGFR-alpha expressing cells, in melanoma. In the present study PDGFR-alpha was transiently overexpressed in endothelial (HUVEC) and melanoma (SK-Mel-28) human cells; a strong anti-proliferation effect was observed, along with profound effects on mRNA and miRNA expression. In detail, gene-expression profiling showed that PDGFR-alpha over-expression affects the expression of 82 transcripts in HUVEC (41 up-, 41 down-regulated), and 52 Transcripts in SK-Mel-28 (43 up-, 9 down-regulated). Finally, a miRNA profiling showed that 14 miRs are up-regulated and 39 are down-regulated in PDGFR-alpha overexpressing cells. Accurate validation with alternative techniques demonstrated that CXCL10 is one of the most significantly up-regulated at both gene- and protein level, in combination with a strong down-regulation of miR-503 in both HUVEC and SK-Mel-28 overexpressing PDGFR-alpha. We then demonstrate that CXCL10 is a validated miR-503 target, and that the anti-proliferation effect of PDGFR-alpha is reverted by specific CXCL-10 neutralization. In conclusion, PDGFR-alpha overexpression strongly inhibits endothelial- and melanoma- proliferation in a CXCL-10 dependent way, by significantly down-regulating miR-503 expression. This data set contains the results of the mRNA analysis.

RNA-seq of human midbrain organoid models of Parkinson's Disease

Project description:Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by the selective loss of midbrain dopamine (DA)-producing neurons and the formation of α-synuclein (α-syn)-containing inclusions named Lewy bodies (LBs). Here, we report that the loss of glucocerebrosidase (GCase), coupled with α-syn overexpression, result in substantial accumulation of detergent-resistant α-syn aggregates and Lewy body-like inclusions (LBLIs) in human midbrain-like organoids (hMLOs). These LBLIs exhibit a highly similar structure to PD-associated LBs, by displaying a spherically symmetric morphology with an eosinophilic core, and containing α-syn and ubiquitin. Importantly, hMLOs generated from PD patient-derived inducible pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) harboring SNCA triplication also exhibit subsequent degeneration of DA neurons and LBLI formation upon chronic GCase inhibitor treatment. Taken together, our hMLOs harbouring two major PD risk factors (GCase deficiency and overproduced α-syn) successfully recapitulate major pathophysiological signatures of the disease, and highlight the broad utility of brain organoid technology in modeling human neurodegenerative diseases.

Relief of feedback inhibition of HER3 transcription by RAF and MEK inhibitors attenuates their antitumor effects in BRAF mutant thyroid carcinomas.

Project description:Analysis of transcriptome kinetics of SW1736 thyroid cancer cell line vs SK-MEL-28 melanoma cell line at various times after addition of 2 µM vemurafenib. The hypothesis tested was that SW1736 cells (vemurafenib-refractory) differentially express genes compared to SK-MEL-28 cells (vemurafenib sensitive) that confer resistance to the RAF inhibitor.
