Project description:Prostate cancer C4-2B cells were cultured in enzalutamide in a dose-escalation manner. After sixty passages cells were resistant to enzalutamide, with a specific sets of genes been deregulated. We performed global gene expression analysis by cDNA microarrays to identify genes responsible for enzalutamide resistance in C4-2B-MDVR cells. Enzalutamide resistant C4-2B-MDVR cells were selected from C4-2B cells during long time enzalutamide treatment. Genes responsible for enzalutamide resistance were identified using C4-2B vs. C4-2B-MDVR RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:The overall goal of this study was to identify genes differentially expressed in enzalutamide-sensitive (C4-2B Con) and enzalutamide-resistant (C4-2B ENZR) C4-2B cells.
Project description:The overall goal of this study was to identify genes that were differentially-expressed in C4-2B MDVR cells treated with Indocin. C4-2B MDVR were either treated with Indocin (20 uM) or DMSO vehicle control for 3 days, followed by isolation of total cellular RNA. Transcriptome analysis was performed with RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) in order to identify differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) induced by Indocin treatment.
Project description:We established an enzalutamide-resistant C4-2b prostate cell line that has an active androgen receptor by maintaining the C4-2b cell line in serially increasing concentrations of enzalutamide. Among the CRPC cell lines, we selected the C4-2b cell line because it is known to have AR variants, and we desired to identify enzymes with the ability to regulate the activity of AR variants as well as the wild type AR. After 2 months, we acquired resistant cells in even 10 uM enzalutamide. After validation of enzalutamide-resistant character, we analyzed global changes in mRNA expression by using quantitative mRNA-sequencing analysis.
Project description:Prostate cancer C4-2B cells were cultured in docetaxel in a dose-escalation manner. After nine months selection, cells were able to divide freely in 5 nM docetaxel, with a specific sets of genes been deregulated. We performed global gene expression analysis by cDNA microarrays to identify genes responsible for docetaxel resistance in TaxR cells. Docetaxel resistant TaxR cells were selected from C4-2B cells during long time docetaxel treatment. Genes responsible for docetaxel resistance were identified using C4-2B vs. TaxR RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Identifying the effect of the co-chaperone SGTA on global androgen receptor transcriptional activity in C4-2B prostate cancer cells with view to further elucidating the broader biological role of SGTA on other signaling pathways within prostate cancer cells Knockdown of SGTA for 72 hours in C4-2B cells significantly altered the expression of approximately 1900 genes in both vehicle and DHT treated cells. The effect of SGTA knockdown was to suppress the expression of approximately 60% of those transcripts. The regulation of 35% of DHT target genes was also affected by SGTA knockdown, with gene-specific effects on basal, or DHT-induced expression, or both. C4-2B cells were transfected with 5nM non-specific control siRNA (NS) or with a pool of three commercially avaliable SGTA specific siRNA (SGTA) for 72hrs. Cells were subsequently treated with either ethanol vehicle control or 1nM DHT for 16hr. Total RNA was extracted. Five independent vehicle and 2 DHT siNS and siSGTA samples were hybridized to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST array chips.
Project description:Expression profiling of isoflavone and 3,3’-diindolylmethane treated C4-2B prostate cancer cells was conducted using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0. Array C4-2B prostate cancer cells were treated with isoflavone and B-DIM for 6 hours or longer up to 72 hours. Gene expression profiling was conducted
