Project description:Background: Although TP53 gain-of-function (GOF) mutations promote cancer survival, its effect on EGFR-TKI efficacy remains unclear. We established EGFR-mutant lung cancer cell lines expressing various TP53 genotypes using CRISPR-Cas9 technology and found that TP53-GOF mutant cells develop an early resistance to EGFR-TKI osimertinib.The goal of this study is to elucidate the mechanisms underlying resistance to osimertinib treatment in TP53 GOF mutations through comprehensive gene analysis using ChIP-seq.
Project description:In order to study the mechanism of co-inactivation of RB1 and TP53 in the transformation of lung adenocarcinoma to small cell lung cancer, we established the NCI-H1975 cell line with RB1 knockdown.NCI-H1975 cells were cultured and infected with lentivirus expressing RB1-shRNA (n=3) or pLKO.1-shRNA (n=3), We then performed transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) on the above cells.
Project description:Based on the previous eVIP study (Cancer Cell, 2016), we profiled the transcriptomes of lung adenocarcinoma cell lines expressing oncogenic KRAS and TP53 to compare methods and investigate the effects of these oncogenes on the cells' whole transcriptomes.

We established EGFR-mutant lung cancer cell lines expressing various TP53 genotypes using CRISPR-Cas9 technology and found that TP53-GOF mutant cells develop an early resistance to EGFR-TKI osimertinib.The goal of this study is to elucidate the mechanisms underlying resistance to osimertinib treatment in TP53 GOF mutations through comprehensive gene analysis using RNA-seq with next-generation sequencing (NGS). Methods: Total RNA was isolated from PC-9 cells overexpressing TP53 R248Q mutation (PC9/p53R248Q: TP53 GOF mutation) and PC-9 cells overexpressing empty vector plasmid (PC9/p53EV: TP53 null) treated with DMSO or osimertinib for 24hours, using the RNeasy Micro Kit , in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. RNA samples were quantified by NanoDrop-2000 spectrophotometer, and the quality was confirmed with a 2200 TapeStation. rRNA was removed using MGI Easy rRNA Depletion Kit according to manufacturer's instructions followed by library construction using MGIEasy RNA Directional Library Prep Set (MGI). MGI DNBseq-G400 FAST was used to perform the amplicons deep sequencing following the standard operation protocol. The sequence format was 150bp pair read for all samples. All sequencing reads were trimmed low-quality bases and adapters with Trimmomatic (v.0.38) , and RNA sequencing reads were mapped to hg38 using HISAT2 software . Raw counts for each gene were estimated in each sample using RSEM version 1.3.0 and Bowtie 2. Calculation of the log fold-change (log FC) and p-value were performed using edgeR. Results: We explored the functions of specifically upregulated genes in TP53 GOF mutation after osimertinib treatment by KEGG pathway-enrichment analysis and found that the cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction was the most significantly altered pathway. Hallmark pathway analysis identified the TNF-α/NF-κB pathway was significantly enriched. Furthermore, TRRUST analysis showed enhanced activity of transcription factors especially RELA (p65) and NF-kB1. Conclusions: TP53 GOF mutaion induces osimertinib resistance by activating TNF-α/NF-κB pathway.
Project description:In order to investigate the potential role of TP53 in regulating translation, HCT116 wild type and TP53 knockout cells were analyzed using both RNA sequencing, Ribosome sequencing and nascent proteome analysis. The cells were treated with 0.2 µg/ml Neocarcinostatin (NCS) to induce DNA damage and activate TP53.
Project description:The adaptor protein LNK (SH2B3) has emerged as an important protein in regulating B cell development B cell leukemia. Loss-of-function mutations in LNK (SH2B3) are found in Philadelphia chromosomeâlike acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-like ALL), but how LNK regulates normal B cell development or promotes leukemogenesis remains unclear. We found that combined loss of Lnk and tumor suppressors Tp53 in mice triggers a highly aggressive and transplantable precursor B-ALL. This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism by which LNK regulates B-ALL development. We performed expression profiling of bone marrow proB progenitors from WT, Tp53-/-, Lnk-/- and preleukemic healthy Tp53/Lnk double knockout (DKO) mice, as well as leukemic bone marrow cells from DKO mice that have developed B-ALL. Results suggest that Tp53-/-Lnk-/- B-ALLs display similar gene expression profiles to human Ph-like B-ALLs, suggesting this model for preclinical and molecular studies. B220+CD19+CD43+AA4.1+IgM-NK1.1-Ly6c- bone marrow proB cells were double sorted from WT, Tp53-/-, Lnk-/- and preleukemic healthy Tp53/Lnk double knockout (DKO) mice, as well as leukemic bone marrow cells from DKO mice that have developed B-ALL. RNA was isolated using miRNeasy kit from QIAGEN and processed using the NuGEN Pico kit. The microarray analysis was performed at the PENN Molecular Profiling/Genomics Facility using GeneChip Mouse Gene 2.0ST array (Affymetrix).
