Project description:Skin melanomas are highly aggressive and metastatic. Omomyc is the best MYC inhibitor currently available. We analysed the effect of Omomyc expression in a transgenic and inducible (upon Doxycycline addition) manner in melanoma cells in vitro in A375 (mutated in BRAF) melanoma cell line. We used microarrays to detail the change in the gene expression programs induced by Omomyc on day 4.
Project description:Skin melanomas are highly aggressive and metastatic. Omomyc is the best MYC inhibitor currently available. We analysed the effect of Omomyc expression in a transgenic and inducible (upon Doxycycline addition) manner in spontaneous lymph node metastases from SkMel147 (mutated in NRAS) melanoma cells in vivo. We used microarrays to detail the change in the gene expression programs induced by Omomyc on day 2.
Project description:Skin melanomas are highly aggressive and metastatic. Omomyc is the best MYC inhibitor currently available. We analysed the effect of Omomyc expression in a transgenic and inducible (upon Doxycycline addition) manner in melanoma cells in vivo in two different melanoma cell lines: A375 (mutated in BRAF), SkMel147 (mutated in NRAS). We used microarrays to detail the change in the gene expression programs induced by Omomyc on day 7.

Project description:Analysis of Kras-driven lung adenocarcinoma of mice intranasally treated with 2.37 mg/kg Omomyc or vehicle (10 mM sodium acetate pH 6.5) for three days. KRasLSL-G12D/+ mice were treated with Omomyc by intranasal administration sixteen weeks after Adeno-Cre infection. Mice (n=2 for vehicle treated and n=3 for Omomyc treated group) were euthanized three days post-treatment and lung tumors were excised and frozen at -80ºC until processing.
