Project description:Transcriptome analysis was conducted on vorinostat resistant HCT116 cells (HCT116-VR) upon knockdown of potential vorinostat resistance candidate genes in the presence and absence of vorinostat. Potential vorinostat resistance candidate genes chosen for this study were GLI1 and PSMD13, which were identified through a genome-wide synthetic lethal RNA interference screen. To understand the transcriptional events underpinning the effect of GLI1 and PSMD13 knockdown (sensitisation to vorinostat-induced apoptosis), cells were first subjected to gene knockdown, then to treatment with vorinsotat or the solvent control. Two timepoints for drug treatment were assessed: a timepoint before induction of apoptosis (4hrs for siGLI1 and 8hrs for siPSMD13) and a timepoint when apoptosis could be detected (8hrs for siGLI1 and 12hrs for siPSMD13). There are 42 samples in total, from triplicate independent biological experiments of 14 samples each.

Project description:Potential vorinostat-resistance candidate genes were identified using RNA interference screening in vorinostat-resistant HCT116 cells (HCT116-VR) using a synthetic lethal approach. In order to understand the mechanisms by which these genes contributed to vorinostat response, transcriptomic analysis was conducted on HCT116-VR cells and those with siRNA-mediated knockdown of each of the vorinostat resistance candidate genes.

There are 45 samples in total, from triplicate independent biological experiments of 15 samples each. The negative control to which all gene knockdowns are compared is the mock transfection control (mock).
Project description:cDNA microarray study of X-radiation (XR) resistant HCT116-Clone2 cells without XR, 10 minutes, 6 hours, or 24 hours after XR at 4Gy versus unirradiated HCT116-Clone10 cells. HCT116-Clone10 cells have similar XR response with parental HCT116 cells. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE798: Unirradiated HCT116-Clone2 cells GSE799: HCT116-Clone2 cells 10 min after XR treatment at 4 Gy GSE800: HCT116-Clone2 cells 6 hours after XR treatment at 4 Gy GSE801: HCT116-Clone2 cells 24 hours after XR treatment at 4 Gy Refer to individual Series
Project description:The transcriptional profiles of the HCT116 parental cells following treatment with either 5-FU or SN38 for 24h were assessed. In addition, basal comparisons between HCT116 parental and HCT116 5-FU -resistant and HCT116 SN38-resistant cells were also assessed.
Project description:Epigenetic modifying enzymes are commonly mutated in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Importantly, genetics abnormalities lead to inactivation of HAT, which tilt the balance in favor of decreased protein acetylation in DLBCL cells. This suggests that protein acetylation regulation is an important factor in DLBCL pathogenesis and a potential target for therapy. We developed resistant cell lines to the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) vorinostat, in order to better define molecular mechanisms of action of HDACi in lymphoma cells. We found that cells resistant to HDACi have increased protein synthesis and proteasomal degradation. Additionally, cells resistant to HDACi have acquired increased susceptibility to proteasome inhibitors and this correlates with activation of the unfolded protein response. Importantly, using transcriptional signatures found in our resistant lymphoma cell line model, we show that tumors from DLBCL patients treated but unresponsive to HDACi therapy undergo similar changes. Together, these data show, for the first time, that HDACi may be used to prime DLBCL for targeted therapy including proteasome inhibitors. Gene expression in U937 cells after 12h exposure to 2µM vorinostat and after development of resistance to 2 µM vorinostat, with and without vorinostat in the media.
Project description:To investigate the mechanism of BCAT1 in mediating resistance to third-generation EGFR-TKI, we employed RNA-seq analysis to compare the transcriptome signature of ASK120067-resistant NSCLC cells with or without BCAT1 knockdown. Here, gene set enrichment (GSEA) revealed a significant decrease in the expression of genes in glycolysis pathway following small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated BCAT1 knockdown, which indicated the role for BCAT1 in supporting TKI resistance through upregulation of glycolysis.
