Project description:To investigate the effect of HSPA13 on TGFβ1-induced EMT of RPE cells, we performed bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed that gene signatures associated with EMT and cell migration were significantly downregulated in the shHSPA13+TGFβ1 group relative to the shScramble+TGFβ1 group. PI3K/Akt signaling-related gene levels were repressed as well.

Project description:PurposeThis study aimed to explore the impact of HSPA13 on epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) development, along with its associated molecular mechanisms.MethodsHSPA13 expression was evaluated in epiretinal membranes (ERMs) from patients with PVR using immunohistochemistry. The effects of HSPA13 knockdown on TGFβ1-induced EMT in hESC-RPE cells were studied through quantitative PCR (qPCR), Western blot, and wound healing assays. Intracellular Ca2+ levels were measured using Fluo-8/AM incubation. A rat PVR model was induced by the intravitreal injection of RPE cells combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). RNA-seq was applied to study the molecular mechanism of HSPA13 knockdown-mediated EMT inhibition.ResultsHSPA13 was found in human ERMs and its expression increased with TGFβ1 treatment in hESC-RPE cells. Knockdown of HSPA13 inhibited TGFβ1-induced EMT and migration. In the PVR rat model, HSPA13 was expressed in the ERMs and its knockdown in RPE cells reduced the development of PVR. Consistent with these observations, RNA-seq showed a global suppression of TGFβ1-induced EMT and migration by shHSPA13 in RPE cells. Mechanistically, TGFβ1 treatment increased intracellular Ca2+ levels, leading to an upregulation of HSPA13 expression. Downregulation of HSPA13 hindered the phosphorylation of PI3K/Akt in TGFβ1-induced RPE cells.ConclusionsOur study revealed the involvement of HSPA13 in PVR development, as well as in TGFβ1-induced EMT of RPE through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Targeting HSPA13-related pathways involved in regulating EMT in RPE cells could serve as a novel therapeutic approach for patients with PVR.

Project description:Hyperactivation of the phosphatydil-inositol-3' phosphate kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway is observed in most NSCLCs, promoting proliferation, migration, invasion and resistance to therapy. AKT can be activated through several mechanisms that include loss of the negative regulator PTEN, activating mutations of the catalytic subunit of PI3K (PIK3CA) and/or mutations of AKT1 itself. However, number and identity of downstream targets of activated PI3K/AKT pathway are poorly defined. To identify the genes that are targets of constitutive PI3K/AKT signalling in lung cancer cells, we performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis of human lung epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) expressing active mutant AKT1 (AKT1-E17K), active mutant PIK3CA (PIK3CA-E545K) or that are silenced for PTEN. For each sample, 500 ng of total RNA were used to synthesize biotinylated cRNA with Illumina RNA Amplification Kit (Ambion, Austin, TX). Synthesis was carried out according to the manufacturersâ instructions. From each sample, technical triplicates were produced and 750 ng cRNA were hybridized for 18h to Human HT-12_V3_0_R1 Expression BeadChips (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Hybridized chips were washed and stained with streptavidin-conjugated Cy3 (GE Healthcare, Milan, Italy). BeadChips were dried and scanned with an Illumina Bead Array Reader (Illumina).

Project description:Neuroblastoma is a pediatric tumor of the peripheral sympathetic nervous system with a highly variable prognosis. Activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in neuroblastoma is correlated with poor patient prognosis, but the precise downstream effectors mediating this effect have not been determined. Here, we identify the forkhead transcription factor FOXO3a as a key target of the PI3K/AKT pathway in neuroblastoma. FOXO3a expression was elevated in low stage neuroblastoma tumors and normal embryonal neuroblasts, but reduced in late stage neuroblastoma. Inactivation of FOXO3a by AKT was essential for neuroblastoma cell survival. Treatment of neuroblastoma cells with the dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor PI-103 activated FOXO3a and triggered apoptosis. This effect was rescued by FOXO3a silencing. Conversely, apoptosis induced by PI-103 or the AKT inhibitor MK-2206 was potentiated by FOXO3a overexpression. Further, levels of total or phosphorylated FOXO3a correlated closely with apoptotic sensitivity to MK-2206. In clinical specimens, there was an inverse relationship between gene expression signatures regulated by PI3K signaling and FOXO3a transcriptional activity. Moreover, high PI3K activity and low FOXO3a activity were each associated with an extremely poor prognosis. Our work indicates that expression of FOXO3a and its targets offer useful prognostic markers as well as biomarkers for PI3K/AKT inhibitor efficacy in neuroblastoma.

Project description:Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is a uniformly fatal pediatric, adolescent, and young adult cancer diagnosed in the midline structures of the brain. PI3K/Akt signaling is an overarching contributor to the poor outcomes of DMG patients due to their dependance on insulin and recurring mutations and amplifications in PI3K/Akt genes. Paxalisib (GDC-0084) is a potent PI3K/Akt inhibitor developed to penetrate the brain’s protective blood-brain barrier (BBB). We performed paxalisib regimen optimization by assessment of blood glucose levels, analysis in vivo pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics properties, and employed DMG patient derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models to determine preclinical efficacy. To identify novel combination strategies, we conducted high-resolution quantitative phosphoproteomics of DMG cells treated with paxalisib. Elevated blood glucose levels promoting hyperglycemia was seen in mice using paxalisib 10 mg/kg/day (~mouse equivalent human maximum tolerated dose- NCT03696355). Whereas 5 mg/kg/day, or 5mg/kg/b.i.d. (twice daily) non-significantly increased blood glucose levels compared to controls. Pharmacokinetic analysis of mouse tissues showed 5 mg/kg/b.i.d. increased paxalisib acumination in the brainstem, suppressing PI3K/Akt signaling to significantly extend the survival of DMG PDX models compared to all other regimens; a survival benefit amplified when combined with the anti-glycemic therapy metformin. Phosphoproteomic profiling identified increased Protein kinase C (PKC) signaling following paxalisib treatment. The combination of paxalisib and enzastaurin (PKC inhibitor) synergistically extended the survival of PDX models. Our optimized dosing regimen increased the preclinical benefits of paxalisib, with the combination of paxalisib with metformin, or paxalisib with enzastaurin, heralding rationally designed combination strategies for the treatment of DMG

Project description:Understanding the crosstalk between malignant B-cells and their milieu could provide clues on the molecular and clinical biology of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). Aiming to generate novel therapeutic strategies, different groups have studied different CLL proliferative fractions. We previously, identified one of these proliferative subsets in the peripheral blood from progressive unmutated CLL patients. Since the presence of this small subset appears to be a hallmark of a proliferative disease in which B lymphocytes are being constitutively activated in the proliferative centers of these patients, we performed gene expression analysis comparing the global mRNA and microRNAs expression of this leukemic subpopulation. Our results suggest that the proliferative behaviour of this fraction appears to depend on microRNA-22 over-expression, which induces PTEN downregulation and PI3K/AKT pathway activation. Transfection experiments demonstrated that miR-22 overexpression in CLL B-cells switches on PI3K/AKT leading to FOXO1 inactivation, p27-Kip1 downregulation, and overexpression of Survivin and Ki-67 proteins. We also demonstrated that this pathway could be triggered by microenvironment signals like CD40L/IL4 and more importantly, that this regulatory loop is also present in lymph nodes from progressive UM patients. Altogether, these results underline the key role of PI3K/AKT pathway in the generation of the CLL proliferative pool and provide rationale for the usage of PI3K inhibitors. Two-subset of B cells, QF vs PF. 8 samples of 4 patients.

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is difficult to treat due to the lack of biological targets and poor sensitivity to conventional therapies. Chemotherapy is the main treatment in the clinic, but there is still no effective screening strategy for chemotherapy drugs. Several studies have attempted to find the pathogenesis through sequencing, but the integration of transcriptome maps of various tumors for drug discovery has been slow. Drug repurposing has attracted increasing attention in recent years. We first found there were common features between leukemia and TNBC. Therefore, we chose a classic leukemia drug thioguanine (6-TG) as a candidate drug. We utilized RNA-seq and DNA methylation arrays to evaluate its role in MDA-MB-231 cells. Our results demonstrated that 6-TG inhibited cell proliferation by suppressing PI3K-AKT pathway via downregulating the DNA methylation level of PTEN. Moreover, apoptosis was induced via the activation of PI3K-AKT downstream molecular TSC1 and the downregulation of methylation levels of DAXX, TNF, FADD and CASP8 etc., these genes involved in apoptosis pathways. 6-TG presents anti-tumor effects in vitro and vivo by regulating the DNA methylation levels of PI3K-AKT pathway and apoptosis pathway. Meanwhile, we proved transcriptome-based drug screening has potential implications for breast cancer therapy and drug selection.
