Identification of cancer modifiers using parental strain expression mapping

ABSTRACT: Inherited genetic risk factors play an important role in cancer. However, other than cancer susceptibility genes found in familial cancer syndromes and inherited in a Mendelian fashion, little is known about modifier genes (germline variants that interact with each other and with environmental factors) that contribute to individual susceptibility. Here we develop a strategy “parental strain expression mapping” (PSEM), which utilizes the homogeneity of inbred mice and genome-wide mRNA expression analyses, to directly identify candidate germline modifier genes and pathways underlying phenotypic differences among murine strains exposed to transgenic activation of AKT1. We identified multiple candidate modifier pathways and specifically, the glycolysis pathway as a candidate negative modulator of AKT1-induced proliferation. In keeping with findings in murine models, the expression of the glycolysis pathway was strongly enriched in the non-cancer prostate tissue from patients with prostate cancer who did not recur after surgical resection. Together these data suggest that PSEM can directly identify germline modifier pathways of relevance to human disease. Keywords: genetic modifier

Transcription profiling of mouse inbred strains to identify germline cancer modifiers using parental strain expression mapping

The application of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay inhibition to the identification of breast cancer susceptibility genes

Project description:Identification of novel, highly penetrant, breast cancer susceptibility genes will require the application of additional strategies beyond that of traditional linkage and candidate gene approaches. Approximately one-third of inherited genetic diseases, including breast cancer susceptibility, are caused by frameshift or nonsense mutations that truncate the protein product [1]. Transcripts harbouring premature termination codons are selectively and rapidly degraded by the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway. Blocking the NMD pathway in any given cell will stabilise these mutant transcripts, which can then be detected using gene expression microarrays. This technique, known as gene identification by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay inhibition (GINI), has proved successful in identifying sporadic nonsense mutations involved in many different cancer types. However, the approach has not yet been applied to identify germline mutations involved in breast cancer. We therefore attempted to use GINI on lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) from multiple-case, non-BRCA1/2 breast cancer families in order to identify additional high-risk breast cancer susceptibility genes. We applied GINI to a total of 24 LCLs,established from breast-cancer affected and unaffected women from three multiple-case non-BRCA1/2 breast cancer families. We then used Illumina gene expression microarrays to identify transcripts stabilised by the NMD inhibition. Total RNA obtained from the lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from 24 individuals.

Starving advanced prostate cancer cells by pharmacological gluose deprivation with a resveratrol trimer trans-Gnetin H [TGH]

Project description:Prostate cancer is a unique disease from a metabolic perspective. Early stage localized prostate cancer does not typically display increased aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect), as seen in other malignancies. However, increasing evidence suggests that advanced prostate cancer exhibits the Warburg effect and displays high glucose uptake. We describe here that trans-gnetin H (TGH), a naturally-occurring resveratrol trimer extracted from Paeonia suffruticosa, displays significant anti-cancer effects in advanced prostate cancer cells in vitro. TGH perturbs energy metabolism by blocking the availability of glucose, inducing unfolded protein response (UPR) and C-MYC pathway downregulation in PC-3 cells. Our studies demonstrate the feasibility of targeting aerobic glucose metabolism in advanced prostate cancer and identify TGH as a potential therapeutic candidate.

Starving advanced prostate cancer cells by pharmacological gluose deprivation with a resveratrol trimer trans-Gnetin H [PDX]

Project description:Prostate cancer is a unique disease from a metabolic perspective. Early stage localized prostate cancer does not typically display increased aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect), as seen in other malignancies. However, increasing evidence suggests that advanced prostate cancer exhibits the Warburg effect and displays high glucose uptake. We describe here that trans-gnetin H (TGH), a naturally-occurring resveratrol trimer extracted from Paeonia suffruticosa, displays significant anti-cancer effects in advanced prostate cancer cells xenografted PC-3 cells in vivo.TGH perturbs energy metabolism by blocking the availability of glucose and inducing profound metabolic and transcriptomic changes in prostate cancer cells as demonstrated by RNA-seq. C-MYC, a known driver oncogene in prostate cancer, is downregulated in TGH-treated cells. Our studies demonstrate the feasibility of targeting aerobic glucose metabolism in advanced prostate cancer and identify TGH as a potential therapeutic candidate.

Transcription profiling by array of human prostate cancer cells enriched for cell surface markers CD44/CD133/alpha 2 beta 1 integrin

Project description:Self-renewing tumor initiating cells that are capable of differentiation and responsible for tumor growth have been isolated from cancers and cell lines. If such minor populations are associated with tumor progression, understanding molecular pathways that are required for viability and maintenance of these populations will allow to target these pathways to eradicate tumors that are resistant to existing therapies. In this study we enriched for prostate cancer progenitors (Pr. CPM-CM-"M-BM-^@M-BM-^Ys) expressing cell surface markers CD44/CD133/alpha 2 beta 1 integrin in non-adherent serum-free growth conditions maintained as spheres. Cells grown in these conditions have increased in vivo clonogenic and in vivo tumorigenic potential. microarray analysis of cells grown in sphere conditions compared with long term monolayer culture conditions revealed preferential activation of PI3K/AKT pathway in prostate cancer progenitors. PI3K p110 alpha and beta protein levels were high in sphere condition cultured cells, and PTEN knockdown lead to an increase in Pr.CPM-CM-"M-BM-^@M-BM-^Ys, and to increased clonogenic and tumorigenic potential. Inhibition of Akt1 phosphorylation target FoxO3a lead to inhibition of tumorigenic capacity in vivo for prostate cancer cells. Inhibition of PI3K activity by PI3K inhibitor NVP-BEZ235 lead to a selective inhibition of Pr.CPM-CM-"M-BM-^@M-BM-^Ys, nuclear localization of FoxO3a and increase in GADD45a in prostate cancer cells. Taken together our data strongly suggest that PTEN and PI3K/Akt pathways are critical for prostate cancer stem-like cell maintenance and targeting the PI3K signaling by selective inhibitors may give an incredible advancement in prostate cancer treatment.
