Project description:Most of the NPC patients suffer from local recurrences and distant metastases within 1.5 years after radiotherapy due to radioresistance. Distinct patterns of gene expression and signatures were found in NPC, and have been used to associate them with cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and metastasis, but few gene expression profiling studies have been focused on the tumor radioresistance.We used gene expression microarray analyses to identify the difference of mRNA in radioresistant NPC CNE2-IR cells and radiosensitive CNE2 cells. Radioresistant subclone of nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2-IR cell line was cultured and produced according to the experienment schedule to undergo five rounds of sublethal dose of irradiation (11 Gy), and the parent cell line CNE2 cell line sensitive to radiotherapy as the control

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE9712: Detection of genes differentially expressed in radioresistant tumors; GSE9713: Detection of genes differentially expressed in radioresistant and radiosensitive tumors before and after irradiation; GSE9714: Interferon response of radioresistant and radiosensitive human head&neck tumor cell lines Experiment Overall Design: Refer to individual Series
Project description:Prostate cancer cell lines DU145 and LNCaP were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection. Radioresistant (RR) sublines were generated form these original parental radiosensitive (RS) cell lines. aCGH profiles of radiosensitive (RS) and radioresistant (RR) prostate cancer cell lines were measured and compared to normal DNA.

Project description:Nu61, a radiation-resistant human tumor xenograft, was selected from a parental radiosensitive tumor SCC-61 by eight serial cycles of passage in athymic nude mice and in vivo irradiation. Obtained tumors were profiled using Affymetrix U133A arrays. Most abundant gene pattern associated with radioresistant phenotype was presented by IFN-inducible, Stat1-dependent pathway Keywords: Pair-wise comparison of radiosensitive vs radioresistant tumors

Project description:Radioresistance is a major hurdle in the treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Here we report a novel role for statin-based treatment of HNSCCs as an actionable and safe adjuvant to radiotherapy. Proteomic profiling and comparison of radiosensitive and radioresistant HNSCCs revealed differential regulation of the mevalonate biosynthetic pathway. Consistent with this finding, inhibition of the mevalonate pathway by pitavastatin (and other related statins) sensitized SQ20B cells to ionizing radiation (IR) and reduced their clonogenic potential. In an effort to uncover the mechanism behind this statin-mediated sensitization, we analyzed prenylation of several important cellular targets upon combined IR-statin treatment. Overall, this study reinforces the view that the mevalonate pathway is a promsing novel therapeutic target in radioresistant HSNCCs.
