Project description:Inducing senescence in cancer cells is emerging as a new therapeutic strategy. We tested the senescence induction of palbociclib and indisulam or PF-06873600 in A549 and PF-06873600 in SUM159 cells, and profiled these for senescence associated gene signatures.
Project description:Purpose: The goals of our study were to identify downstream pathway regulated by GSK-J4 in lung adenocarcinoma Methods: RNAs isolated from GSK-J4-treated or untreated lung adenocarcinoma (HCC827, H23 and A549) were analyzed by using an Illumina Nextseq500 Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed transcriptomic analysis of effects of GSK-J4 in lung adenocarcinoma.
Project description:Gene expression data from AML cell lines, MOLM-14, U937, THP-1 and HL-60, that were infected with a scrambled control hairpin (shControl), two shRNAs directed against GSK-3B (shGSK3B_1 and shGSK3B_2), or two shRNAs directed against GSK-3A (shGSK3A_5 and shGSK3A_6). Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common form of acute leukemia in adults. Long-term survival of patients with AML has changed little over the past decade, necessitating the identification and validation of new AML targets. Integration of genomic approaches with small-molecule and genetic-based high-throughput screening holds the promise of improved discovery of candidate targets for cancer therapy. Here, we identified a role for glycogen synthase kinase 3A (GSK-3A) in AML by performing two independent small-molecule library screens and an shRNA screen for perturbations that induced a differentiation expression signature in AML cells. GSK-3 is a serine-threonine kinase involved in diverse cellular processes including differentiation, signal transduction, cell cycle regulation, and proliferation. We demonstrated that specific loss of GSK-3A induced differentiation in AML by multiple measurements, including induction of gene expression signatures, morphological changes, and cell surface markers consistent with myeloid maturation. GSK-3AM-bM-^@M-^Sspecific suppression also led to impaired growth and proliferation in vitro, induction of apoptosis, loss of colony formation in methylcellulose, and anti-AML activity in vivo. Although the role of GSK-3B has been well studied in cancer development, these studies support a role for GSK-3A in AML. The AML cell lines, MOLM-14, U937, THP-1 and HL-60, were infected with a scrambled control hairpin (shControl), two shRNAs directed against GSK-3B (shGSK3B_1 and shGSK3B_2), and two shRNAs directed against GSK-3A (shGSK3A_5 and shGSK3A_6).
Project description:To investigate the function of RUNX1-IT1 in ovarian cancer progression, we constructed ES2 cell lines with knockdown of RUNX1-IT1 and the control group. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 2 different cells.
Project description:Purpose: The goals of our study were to identify downstream pathway regulated by GSK-J4 in lung adenocarcinoma Methods: Chromatin isolated from GSK-J4- or siKDM6B-treated lung adenocarcinoma with proper controls was used to generate ChIP-Seq libraries
