Project description:The epidemiologic association between statin use and decreased risk of advanced prostate cancer suggests that statins may inhibit prostate cancer development and/or progression. Studies were performed to determine the effects of a model statin, atorvastatin (ATO), on the proliferation and differentiation of prostate cancer cells, and to identify possible mechanisms of ATO action. ATO inhibited the in vitro proliferation of both LNCaP and PC3 human prostate cancer cells in dose-dependent fashion. The greater inhibitory activity of ATO in PC3 cells was associated with induction of autophagy in that cell line, as demonstrated by increased expression of LC3-II. miR-182 was consistently upregulated by ATO in PC3 cells, but not in LNCaP cells. ATO upregulation of miR-182 in PC3 cells was p53-independent and was reversed by geranylgeraniol. Transfection of miR-182 inhibitors decreased expression of miR-182 by >98% and attenuated the antiproliferative activity of ATO. miR-182 expression in PC3 cells was also increased in response to stress induced by serum withdrawal, suggesting that miR-182 upregulation can occur due to nutritional stress. Bcl2 and p21 were identified to be potential target genes of miR-182 in PC3 cells. Bcl2 was downregulated and p21 was upregulated in PC3 cells exposed to ATO. These data suggest that miR-182 may be a stress-responsive miRNA that mediates ATO action in prostate cancer cells. Gene and miRNA expression in two prostate cancer cell lines treated with Atorvastatin vs. untreated control.

Project description:To explore the gene expression signatures in human prostate cancer cells PC3 with lncAPP overexpression and knocdown, we conducted lenti viruses transfection to construct upregulation and downregulation of lncAPP in PC3 cells. Expression levels of lncAPP were detected via qRT-PCR to confirm the consistency and quality of microarray.

Project description:To identify genes differentially modulated by anti-miR-182 treatment in a liver melanoma metastasis mouse model. Targeting oncogenic microRNAs is emerging as a promising strategy for cancer therapy. Here we provide proof-of-principle for the safety and efficacy of miRNA targeting against metastatic tumors. We tested the effect of targeting miR-182, a pro-metastatic miRNA frequently overexpressed in melanoma, whose silencing represses invasion and induces apoptosis in vitro. In particular, we assessed the effect of anti-miR-182 oligonucleotides synthesized with 2â sugar modifications and a phosphorothioate backbone in a mouse model of melanoma liver metastasis. Luciferase imaging showed that mice treated with anti-miR-182 had an appreciably lower burden of liver metastases compared to the control. We confirmed that miR-182 levels were effectively downregulated in the anti-miR treated tumors relative to the scrambled treated tumor both in the liver and in the spleen. This downregulation was accompanied by an upregulation of miR-182 direct targets. Transcriptome analysis of mouse tissues treated with anti-miR-182 or scramble oligonucleotides revealed an enrichment for genes controlling survival, adhesion and migration modulated in response to anti-miR-182 treatment. These data indicate that in vivo administration of anti-miRs allows for efficient miRNA targeting and concomitant upregulation of target levels. Our results suggest that the use of anti-miR-182 is a promising therapeutic strategy for metastatic melanoma and provide solid proof-of-principle for similar strategies against other metastatic tumors. Keywords: Differentially expressed genes (mRNAs) in response to miRNA inhibition Quadruplicate (n=4) samples of anti-miR-182 treated human melanoma metastasis compared to quadruplicate control treated metastasis.

Project description:About 20-30% of patients with metastatic non-medullary thyroid cancer (TC) have persistent or recurrent disease resulting from tumor dedifferentiation. Tumor redifferentiation to restore sensitivity to radioactive iodine therapy is considered a promising strategy to overcome RAI resistance. Autophagy has emerged as an important mechanism in cancer dedifferentiation. Here, we demonstrate the therapeutic potential of autophagy activation for redifferentiation in thyroid cancer cell lines. Five, all digitalis-like compounds, restored hNIS expression and iodine uptake in TC cell lines. Upregulation of hNIS was mediated by intracellular Ca2+ and cFOS activation. Cell proliferation was inhibited by downregulating Akt1 and by induction of autophagy and p21-dependent cell cycle arrest. All together, digitalis-like compounds could represent a promising treatment modality for patients with dedifferentiated TC.

Project description:Foxk proteins are transcriptional regulators implicated in key biological processes such as glycolysis, autophagy and cell cycle regulation, among others. Here we employ targeted morpholino knockdown to deplete Foxk1, Fokx2, and Foxk2-1 proteins in developing zebrafish embryos. We demonstrate that the loss of Foxk transcription factors causes genome-wide transcriptional misregulation, characterised by upregulation of autophagy-related genes and downregulation of cell cycle regulators. The phenotype is embryonic lethal with the majority of embryos not surviving past 24hpf.
