Project description:Gene expression in THP-1 cells treated for 6 hours with CNT and GNP conjugated with LL-37, LL-37 spiked as well as free LL-37: Reference (Total RNA Mixture of all samples) vs. treated cells
Project description:We examined the effects of ICG-001 on gene expression in Mel202 uveal melanoma (UM) cells. ICG-001 exerted strong antiproliferative activity against UM cells, leading to cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and inhibition of migration. Global gene expression profiling revealed strong suppression of genes associated with cell cycle proliferation, DNA replication, and G1/S transition. Gene set enrichment analysis revealed that ICG-001 suppressed Wnt, mTOR, and MAPK signaling. Strikingly, ICG-001 suppressed the expression of genes associated with UM aggressiveness, including CDH1, CITED1, EMP1, EMP3, SDCBP, and SPARC. Notably, the transcriptomic footprint of ICG-001, when applied to a UM patient dataset, was associated with better clinical outcome. Lastly, ICG-001 exerted anticancer activity against a UM tumor xenograft in mice.
Project description:The CREB binding protein inhibitor ICG-001 suppresses pancreatic cancer growth We used microarrays to detail global gene expression changes in the pancreatic cancer cell line AsPC1 following treatment with ICG-001 or siRNA-mediated knockdown of CTNNB1 (beta-catenin) AsPC1 cells were treated with 10uM ICG-001 or vehicle control (DMSO) for either 6 hours or 24 hours. AsPC-1 cells were also separately transfected with 20nM control siRNA or CTNNB1 siRNA for 48 hours. RNA was extracted at these time points for hybridization to Affymetrix microarrays
