Project description:Neuroblastoma is a pediatric tumor that accounts for more than 15% of cancer-related deaths in children. Survival chances for high-risk patients are less than 50%. Retinoic acid treatment is part of the maintenance therapy given to neuroblastoma patients; however, not all tumors respond to retinoic acid-mediated differentiation. Among neuroblastoma tumors, two phenotypically distinct cell types-adrenergic (ADRN) and mesenchymal (MES), have been identified based on their super-enhancer landscape and transcriptional core regulatory circuitries. We hypothesized that distinct super-enhancers in these different tumor cells could mediate differential response to retinoic acid. To this end, we treated four different neuroblastoma cell lines, comprising both ADRN (MYCN amplified and non-amplified) and MES subtypes, with retinoic acid and studied the super-enhancer landscape upon treatment and after removal of retinoic acid. Using H3K27ac ChIP-seq paired with RNA-seq, we compared the super-enhancers in cells that respond to retinoic acid-mediated differentiation versus those that fail to differentiate. We identified unique super-enhancers associated with cells differentiation; however, even among cells that respond to treatment, there was heterogeneity upon removal of retinoic acid, with MYCN amplified cells remaining differentiated whereas MYCN non-amplified cells reverted to a proliferative state. This study identifies regulatory super-enhancers as a plausible mechanism behind the differential response to retinoic acid-mediated differentiation.

Project description:The human neuroblastoma cell lines SH-SY5Y and IMR-32 can be differentiated into neuron-like phenotypes through treatment with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). After differentiation, these cell lines are extensively utilized as in vitro models to study various aspects of neuronal cell biology. However, temporal and quantitative profiling of the proteome and phosphoproteome of SH-SY5Y and IMR-32 cells throughout ATRA-induced differentiation has been limited. Here, we performed relative quantification of the proteomes of SH-SY5Y and IMR-32 cells at multiple time points during ATRA-induced differentiation. The data presented serve as a valuable resource for investigating temporal protein and phosphoprotein abundance changes in SH-SY5Y and IMR-32 cells during ATRA-induced differentiation.

Project description:Gene expression data from BE(2)-C cells treated in triplicate with either vehicle (DMSO), 5 M-NM-<M all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), 1 mM valproic acid (VPA), or 5 M-NM-<M ATRA + 1 mM VPA for 6, 24, or 72 hours. Genome-wide expression profiling was performed using Affymetrix U133A microarrays. While cytotoxic chemotherapy remains the hallmark of cancer treatment, intensive regimens fall short in many malignancies, including high-risk neuroblastoma. One alternative strategy is to therapeutically promote tumor differentiation. We created a gene expression signature to measure neuroblast maturation, adapted it to a high-throughput platform, and screened a diversity oriented synthesis-generated small-molecule library for differentiation inducers. We identified BRD8430, containing a nine-membered lactam, an ortho-amino anilide functionality, and three chiral centers, as a selective Class I histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor (HDAC1 > 2 > 3). Further investigation demonstrated that selective HDAC1/HDAC2 inhibition using compounds or RNA interference induced differentiation and decreased viability in neuroblastoma cell lines. Combined treatment with 13-cis retinoic acid augmented these effects and enhanced activation of retinoic acid signaling. Therefore, by applying a chemical genomic screening approach we identified selective HDAC1/HDAC2 inhibition as a strategy to induce neuroblastoma differentiation. BE(2)-C cells were treated in triplicate with either vehicle (DMSO), 5 M-NM-<M all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), 1 mM valproic acid (VPA), or 5 M-NM-<M ATRA + 1 mM VPA for 6, 24, or 72 hours.
