Project description:To determine the signaling networks that are dysregulated in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, gene expression data were obtained from, and compared between, the ovarian cancer cell line, A2780, and its cisplatin-resistant derivative, A2780cis. Gene expression data from a cisplatin-sensitive ovarian cancer cell line (A2780) were collected and compared to gene expression data from a cisplatin-resistant cell line (A2780cis). 6 independent experiments were completed for both the sensitive and resistant cell lines.

Project description:We compared the global RNA expression level between doxorubicin-sensitive human ovarian cancer cell line A2780 and the adriamycin-resistant cell line A2780-ADR to elucidate the drug resistant related molecular mechanisms or targets.
Project description:Drug resistance poses a major challenge to ovarian cancer treatment. Understanding mechanisms of drug resistance is important for finding new therapeutic targets. In the present work, a cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cell line A2780-DR was established with a resistance index of 6.64. The cellular accumulation of cisplatin was significantly reduced in A2780-DR cells as compared to A2780 cells consistent with the general character of drug resistance. Quantitative proteomic analysis identified 340 differentially expressed proteins between A2780 and A2780-DR cells, which involve in diverse cellular processes, including metabolic process, cellular component biogenesis, cellular processes and stress responses. Expression levels of Ras-related proteins Rab 5C and Rab 11B in A2780-DR cells were lower than those in A2780 cells as confirmed by real-time quantitative PCR and western blotting. The short hairpin (sh)RNA-mediated knockdown of Rab 5C in A2780 cells resulted in markedly increased resistance to cisplatin whereas overexpression of Rab 5C in A2780-DR cells increases sensitivity to cisplatin, demonstrating that Rab 5C-dependent endocytosis plays an important role in cisplatin resistance. Our results also showed that expressions of glycolytic enzymes PKM, GPI, Aldolase, LDH, and PGK were down-regulated in drug resistant cells, indicating drug resistance in ovarian cancer is directly associated with a decrease in glycolysis. Furthermore, it was found that glutathione reductase were up-regulated in A2780-DR, while vimentin, HSP90, and Annexin A1 and A2 were down-regulated. Taken together, our results suggest that drug resistance in ovarian cancer cell line A2780 is caused by multifactorial traits, including the down-regulation of Rab 5C-dependent endocytosis of cisplatin, glycolytic enzymes and vimentin, and up-regulation of antioxidant proteins, suggesting Rab 5C is a potential target for treatment of drug-resistant ovarian cancer. This constitutes a further step towards a comprehensive understanding of drug resistance in ovarian cancer.

Project description:MicroRNA expression in paclitaxel (PTX)-resistant SKpac sublines was compared to that of the PTX-sensitive, parental SKOV3 ovarian cancer cell line using microarray and real-time RT-PCR. The function of differentially expressed microRNAs in chemoresistant ovarian cancer was further evaluated by apoptosis, cell proliferation, and migration assays.

Project description:Oxaliplatin resistance was induced in 2 colorectal cancer cell lines (LoVo-92, wt-p53 and LoVo-Li, functionally inactive p53) and one ovarian cancer cell line (A2780, wt-p53). Resistance was induced by weekly exposure to oxaliplatin for 4 hrs or 72 hrs with increasing concentrations for a period of 7 months Genomic DNA of oxaliplatin and cisplatin resistant colorectal cancer and ovarian cancer cell lines as well as the parental cell lines were labeled and subsequently hybridized against pooled reference DNA of healthy volunteers of the opposite gender using across array hybridization. Extracted raw-data were normalised and smoothend using the R-script NOWAVE resulting in normalised log2 ratio profiles of resistant cell line versus parental cell line and parental cell line versus reference DNA.
Project description:The development of drug resistance is still a major impediment for the successful treatment of cancer, such as advanced stage ovarian cancer, which has a 5-year survival rate of only 30%. The molecular processes that contribute to resistance have been extensively studied, however, not much is known about the role of microRNAs. We compared microRNA expression profiles of three isogenic cisplatin sensitive and resistant cell line pairs. The only microRNA that was consistently downregulated (FDR = 0.000) in all resistant cell lines was miR-634. We investigated the effects of miR-634 modulation in ovarian cancer cell lines and patient derived tumor cells. Overexpression of miR-634 gave rise to a modest G1 phase block and enhanced apoptosis. Furthermore, miR-634 resensitized resistant ovarian cancer cell lines and patient derived tumor cells to cisplatin chemotherapy. Similarly, miR-634 enhanced the response of tumor cells to carboplatin and doxorubicin, but not to paclitaxel. We showed that miR-634 regulates cyclin D1 (CCND1), which is required for the G1-S phase transition, explaining the effects on the cell cycle. In addition, miR-634 repressed expression of GRB2, ERK2, RSK1 and RSK2, components of the Ras-MAPK pathway. Altogether, our findings suggest that miR-634 modulates several cancer relevant targets and therefore miR-634 is an attractive therapeutic candidate to resensitize chemotherapy resistant ovarian tumors. The miRNA expression profile was determined of three cisplatin sensitive/resistant cell line pairs (ovarian cancer cell line pair A2780/A2780 DDP; colon cancer cell line pair HCT8/HCT8 DDP; bladder cancer cell line pairT24/T24 DDP10).
