Project description:To categorize gene loss events in enzalutamide-treated LNCaP cells, a genome-wide CRISPR knockout (KO) screen was performed. We quantified sgRNA abundance between initial and final timepoints in DMSO and enzalutamide treated cell populations
Project description:To investigate differential gene expression between LNCaP wild type (WT) cells and cells deficient for RB and p53 in the presence of absence of enzalutamide To investigate differential gene expression between LNCaP wild type (WT) cells and cells deficient for RB and p53 (generated using CRISPR-Cas9) in the presence of absence of enzalutamide
Project description:Utilizing a kinome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screen, we identified casein kinase 1 alpha (CK1α) as a novel therapeutic target to overcome enzalutamide resistance. To dissect the underlying mechanisms of targeting CK1α to sensitize cancer cells to ENZA, we performed RNA sequencing of 22Rv1 cells upon CK1α knockout or overexpression. We found that CK1α regulated double-strand break (DSB)-response signaling.
Project description:Enzalutamide (formerly MDV3100 and available commercially as Xtandi), a novel androgen receptor (AR) signaling inhibitor, blocks the growth of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) in cellular model systems and was shown in a clinical study to increase survival in patients with metastatic CRPC. Enzalutamide inhibits multiple steps of AR signaling: (1) binding of androgens to AR, (2) AR nuclear translocation, and (3) association of AR with DNA. Here we used Affymetrix human genome microarray technology to investigate the global programme of gene expression of LNCaP cells in response to enzalutamide alone and in the context of DHT-stimulated androgen receptor gene expression. LNCaP cells were grown in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 5% hormone depleted FBS and treated with vehicle (control sample) , DHT (100 nM), enzalutamide (1 or 10 M-BM-5M) or DHT (100 nM) plus enzalutamide (1 or 10 M-BM-5M)for 16 hours for RNA extraction and hybridization. Each condition was done in triplicate.
Project description:Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screen using TKOv1 sgRNA library was performed in isogenic RBM10-proficient and RBM10-deficient HCC827 cells.
Project description:The goal of this study was to determine how androgen receptor inhibition alters transcriptional programs in prostate cancer cells. LNCaP prostate cancer cells were grown in 10% charcoal-stripped serum (CSS) supplemented with 0.5 nanomolar dihydrotestosterone (DHT), in CSS without DHT modeling castration, with CSS + DHT but in the presence of 10 micromolar enzalutamide, or in CSS without DHT (castrated) and in the presence of enzalutamide for 72 hours. Analysis shows that androgen receptor target genes are reduced with castration, enzalutamide or the combination of castration + enzalutamide.
