Project description:Cells undergoing malignant transformation often shift their cellular metabolism from primarily oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect). Energy restriction-mimetic agents (ERMAs), such as 2-deoxyglucose and resveratrol, that target this shift in cellular metabolism have been effective in inhibiting cancer cell growth in vitro, and xenograft tumor growth in vivo. We recently developed a novel ERMA, OSU-CG5, that exhibits higher in vivo activity than previously described ERMAs. In this study, we investigated the effect of OSU-CG5 on global gene expression in the dorsal and lateral lobes of the prostate of transgenic adenocarcinoma of the mouse prostate (TRAMP) mice, and on its ability to suppress lesion progression in these mice. Intact male TRAMP mice were randomized into 2 groups and treated for 4-weeks (from age 6 to 10 weeks) with a vehicle or 100 mg/kg/day OSU-CG5 via oral gavage. At the end of the study, the urogenital tracts were collected and prostates microdissected. RNA was extracted from the dorsal and lateral lobes of the prostates from 3 mice per group, and Affymetrix microarrays were performed.

Project description:Gene expression profile of Transgenic Adenocarcinoma of the Mouse Prostate (TRAMP) reveals murine targets for preclinical development of human prostate cancer therapy In this study, we have generated an open source TRAMP microarray dataset to identify differentially expressed genes from human prostate cancer that have concordant expression in TRAMP tumors, and thereby represent lead targets for preclinical therapy development. Affymetrix Mouse 430 2.0 chips were used for microarrays of total RNA from 9 TRAMP tumors and 9 normal prostates (ventral and dorsolateral lobes). Keywords: prostate cancer, TRAMP

Project description:Analysis of gene expression of prostate tumors arisen in TRAMP mice in which mast cells are pharmacologically stabilized or genetically ablated.The hypothesis tested in the present study was that mast cells inhibition or absence impacted prostate tumor development and histotype. Results demonstrate that prostate tumors arisen in TRAMP mice in which mast cells are pharmacologically stabilized or genetically ablated have a neuroendocrine signature. Total RNA obtained from prostate tumors from 24 wks old TRAMP mice chronically treated with sodium chromoglycate (cromolyn) since 8 wks of age, and from 24 wks old TRAMP KitW-sh mice, compared to untreated 30 wks old TRAMP mice and to non tumoral prostates
Project description:MED1 is a transcriptional coactivator for gene-specific activators involved in growth and development, we were interested in identifying MED1 target genes potentially involved in prostate development by cDNA microarray. Med1 was conditional knocked out in mice prostate. We performed cDNA microarray with two sets: (1) RNA isolated from three WT ventral prostates and three MT ventral prostates; (2) RNA isolated from three WT lateral prostates and three MT lateral prostates. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying how Med1 was involved in mice prostate development by regulating targeted genes expression 12 mice prostate samples were divided into two groups: (1) three WT ventral prostates and three MT ventral prostates; (2) three WT lateral prostates and three MT lateral prostates.

Project description:RNA-seq analysis of 115 randomly selected (TRAMP x WSB/EiJ) F2 prostates that had been harvested at experimental termination was performed to identify metastasis associated transcriptomic changes
Project description:Using genetically engineered mice, overexpressing SRC-2, specifically in the prostate epithelium of PTEN heterozygous mice accelerates PTEN mutation induce tumor progression and develops a metastasis-prone cancer. Here we used ChIP-Seq analysis to identify genome-wide SRC-2 binding sites in mouse prostate. Examination of genome-wide SRC-2 binding in mouse prostate by ChIP-seq analysis. Samples were collected from pooled dorsal-lateral prostates of 7 months old-PTEN flox/+; Rosa26-SRC-2 OE/+ mice. Flash frozen tissues were then sent to Active Motif, Inc. for chromatin extraction and followed by immunoprecipitation using anti-SRC-2 antibody (A300-346A, Bethyl Lab., Inc.).
