Project description:Treatment and prophylaxis of the central nervous system (CNS) is a critical component of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy. However, CNS-directed therapies are a significant cause of morbidity and CNS relapse remains a cause of treatment failure. CNS-directed ALL therapies must target leukemia cells within cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a fluid that is compositionally distinct from plasma and has been shown to impact leukemia biology. Herein, we demonstrate that human CSF attenuates the potency and efficacy of anti-folate drugs including methotrexate, the primary CNS-directed chemotherapeutic for over six decades. Importantly, this effect of CSF on leukemia methotrexate sensitivity was reversible. Additional mechanistic studies support that diminished proliferation and activation of the integrated stress response (ISR) in leukemia cells in CSF contribute to this resistance. Our findings suggest potential strategies to enhance methotrexate efficacy in CNS-directed ALL therapy and highlight the need to critically reassess even established standards of care.

Project description:The term gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) describes a range of pathologies derived from the villous trophoblasts of the placenta. These include benign entities such as partial and complete hydatidiform mole as well as invasive cancers such as gestational choriocarcinoma, placental site trophoblastic tumors, and epithelioid trophoblastic tumors. Collectively, the malignant forms of GTD are known as gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). The risk of GTN following a complete molar pregnancy ranges between 8-25%. Low risk patients are expected to have a high likelihood of response to single agent chemotherapy with methotrexate or actinomycin D, but the incidence of resistance to single agent chemotherapy among low risk patients remains 25-50%. We used gene expression microarrays to compare methotrexate sensitive trophoblastic cell lines to sublines that were conditioned to become methotrexate resistant.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOXO), a chemotherapeutic drug, is cardiotoxic. We hypothesized that folic acid is an effective therapeutic agent in a mouse model of DOXO-induced cardiotoxicity. We performed genome-wide expression profiling to identify the underlying mechanisms. Male C57Bl6 2-mo old mice received DOXO (1x20 mg/kg, ip) or saline (sham). FA (10 mg/d) or placebo (plac) was administered 7d before DOXO administration until the end of the experiment (10d).

Project description:A summary of the work associated to these microarrays is the following: Methotrexate (MTX) is one of the earliest cytotoxic drugs used in cancer therapy, and despite the isolation of multiple other folate antagonists, methotrexate maintains its significant role as a treatment for different types of cancer and other disorders. The usefulness of treatment with methotrexate is limited by the development of drug resistance, which may be acquired through different ways. To get insights into the mechanisms associated with drug resistance and sensitization we have performed a functional analysis of genes deregulated in methotrexate resistant cells, either due to its co-amplification with the DHFR gene or as a result of a transcriptome screening using microarrays. Genes adjacent to dhfr locus and included in the 5q14 amplicon were overexpressed in HT29 MTX-resistant cells. Treatment with siRNAs against those genes caused a slight reduction in cell viability in both HT29 sensitive and resistant cells. On the other hand, microarray analysis of HT29 and HT29 MTX resistant cells unveiled overexpression of caveolin 1, enolase 2 and PKCa genes in treated cells without concomitant copy number gain. siRNAs against these three genes effectively reduced cell viability and caused a decreased MTX resistance capacity. Moreover, overexpression of E-cadherin, which was found underexpressed in MTX-resistant cells, also sensitized the cells toward the chemotherapeutic agent. We provide functional evidences indicating that caveolin 1 and E-cadherin may play a critical role in cell survival and may constitute potential targets for coadjuvant therapy.

Project description:bulk sequencing outputs of Caco2 cells after exposure to permeability modifying and permeability rescuing agents. To identify the molecular drivers for methotrexate-induced barrier dysfunction, we conducted RNA sequencing on Caco2 spheroids treated with methotrexate and lactoferrin. Given our observation that barrier function was compromised as early as 4-6 hours after exposure to methotrexate, we isolated RNA from spheroids 4-hour post-treatment to capture the transcriptional events responsible for initiating the processes.

Project description:Methotrexate (MTX) has been widely used for the treatment of a variety of tumors as well as for inflammatory diseases and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). MTX-induced toxicity has been a serious unpredictable side effect of the treatment and an important clinical problem. Possible causes include allergic, cytotoxic or immunologic reactions to this agent. We examined the consequences of the mechanism of MTX-induced pulmonary toxicity gene expression in BEAS-2B cells, huma bronchial cell line, by microarray. The expression of these genes are potential biomarker of methotrexate-induced pulmonary toxicity. Also, We provide a clue about mechanism of pulmonary toxic action by these clinical chemotherapeutic agents. Experiment Overall Design: BEAS-2B cells were seeded and after incubation for 24 h at 37C, the cells were treated with 0.144 ?M(IC20) MTX for 48 h. And after total RNA isolation, gene expression analysis was conducted using a 44-k whole human genome microarray. Labeling and hybridization were performed using a FairPlay microarray labeling kit, followed by the coupling of Cy3 (controls) or Cy5 (treated samples) dye. The hybridized slides were scanned using a GenePix 4000B microarray scanner, and the images were analyzed using GenePix 4.1 software to obtain gene expression ratios. The fluorescence intensity of each spot was calculated by local median background subtraction. We then used the robust scatter-plot smoother LOWESS function to perform intensity-dependent normalization of gene expression. Scatter-plot analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel 2000. A significance analysis of microarray (SAM) was performed for genes with significant changes in expression.

Project description:Acetylation of transcriptional regulators is normally dynamically regulated by nutrient status but is often persistently elevated in nutrient-excessive obesity conditions. We investigated the functional consequences of such aberrantly elevated acetylation of the nuclear receptor FXR as a model. Proteomic studies identified K217 as the FXR acetylation site in diet-induced obese mice. In vivo studies utilizing acetylation-mimic and -defective K217 mutants and gene expression profiling revealed that FXR acetylation increased proinflammatory gene expression, macrophage infiltration, and liver cytokine and triglyceride levels, impaired insulin signaling, and increased glucose intolerance. Mechanistically, acetylation of FXR blocked its interaction with the SUMO ligase PIASy and inhibited SUMO2 modification at K277, resulting in activation of inflammatory genes. SUMOylation of agonist-activated FXR increased its interaction with NF-κB but blocked that with RXRα, so that SUMO2-modified FXR was selectively recruited to and trans-repressed inflammatory genes without affecting FXR/RXRα target genes. A dysregulated Acetyl/SUMO switch of FXR in obesity may serve as a general mechanism for diminished anti-inflammatory response of other transcriptional regulators and provide potential therapeutic and diagnostic targets for obesity-related metabolic disorders. FXR-WT or the FXR-K217Q mutant was expressed in lean mice and FXR-WT or the FXR-K217R mutant was expressed in obese mice by adenoviral infection. One week after infection, mice were treated with GW4064 (30 mg/kg in corn oil) overnight before sacrifice and hepatic expression was analyzed by Illumina microarray.

Experiment Overall Design: Two cell lines are compared in the study, which are HT29 colon cancer cells sensitive to methotrexate and HT29 cells resistant to 10e-5M MTX. Six samples are provided which correspond to triplicated of each cell line. The samples provided were subsequently normalyzed and analyzed using the specific software GeneSpring GX v7.3.1.
