Project description:We analyzed the transcriptome of two different triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell lines to define a comprehensive list of Wnt target genes. Cells were treated with Wnt3a for 6h, 12h or 24h. We found up-regulated and down-regulated genes in response to Wnt3a treatment. They are involved in the Wnt pathway itself, and also in TGFß, p53 and Hedgehog pathways. Thorough characterization of these novel potential Wnt target genes may reveal new regulators of the canonical Wnt pathway. The comparison of our list of Wnt target genes with those published in other cellular contexts confirms the notion that Wnt target genes are tissue-, cell line- and treatment-specific.

Thorough characterization of these novel potential Wnt target genes may reveal new regulators of the canonical Wnt pathway. The comparison of our list of Wnt target genes with those published in other cellular contexts confirms the notion that Wnt target genes are tissue-, cell line- and treatment-specific. Cells were seeded in six-well plates, serum starved overnight then treated with Wnt3a for the indicated times (6, 12 and 24 hours). Triplicates for each condition were included in the experiment.
Project description:Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. Of the different subtypes of breast cancer, the triple negative breast cancer subtype of breast cancer is the most aggressive. A proteomic screen of nucleolar content across breast cancer subtypes found that triple negative breast cancer cell lines have a distinct nucleolar proteome signature in comparison to non-TNBC breast cancer cell lines.
Project description:About 15-20% of all breast cancers are triple negative breast cancers, which are often highly aggressive. We performed global quantitative phosphotyrosine profiling of a large panel of triple negative breast cancer cell lines using high resolution Fourier transform mass spectrometry. Our study identified 1,903 tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides derived from 969 proteins. Heterogeneous activation of tyrosine kinases was observed in triple negative breast cancer derived cell lines.
Project description:An iTRQA-based quantitative proteome analysis using liquid chromatography–coupled tandem mass spectrometry was performed to acquire proteome-wide expression data on Triple-negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) cells treated with Rocaglamide A for 24 hours.
Project description:Three triple negative breast cancer cell lines (MDAMB231, SUM159, and HCC1806) were treated with small molecule inhibitors (JQ1, BET bromodomain inhibitor; GSK2801, BAZ2A/B bromodomain inhibitor) alone and in combination for 72 hours
