Project description:Despite advances in molecular pathogenesis, pancreatic cancer remains a major unsolved health problem. It is a rapidly invasive, metastatic tumor that is resistant to standard therapies. The phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathways are frequently dysregulated in pancreatic cancer. Gemcitabine (Gem) is the mainstay treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer. P276 is a novel CDK inhibitor that induces G2/M arrest and inhibits tumor growth in vivo models. Here, we determined that P276 sensitizes pancreatic cancer cells to Gem induced apoptosis, a mechanism mediated through inhibition of Akt-mTOR signaling. In vitro, the combination of P276 and Gem resulted in a dose- and time-dependent inhibition of proliferation and colony formation of pancreatic cancer cells but not with normal pancreatic ductal cells. This combination also induced apoptosis, as seen by activated caspase 3 and increased Bax/Bcl2 ratio. Gene profiling studies demonstrated that this combination down regulated Akt-mTOR signaling pathway, which was confirmed by western blot analyses. There was also a down regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and interleukin-8 expression suggesting effects on angiogenesis pathway. In vivo, intraperitoneal administration of the P276-Gem combination significantly suppressed the growth of pancreatic cancer tumor xenografts. There was a reduction in CD31 positive blood vessels, and reduced VEGF expression, again suggesting an effect on angiogenesis. Taken together, these data suggest that P276-Gem combination is a novel potent therapeutic agent that can target the Akt-mTOR signaling pathway to inhibit both tumor growth and angiogenesis.

Project description:Pancreatobiliary cancers have among the highest mortality rates of any cancer type. Discovering the full spectrum of molecular genetic alterations may suggest new avenues for therapy. To catalogue genomic alterations, we carried out array-based genomic profiling of 31 exocrine pancreatic cancers and 6 distal bile duct cancers, expanded as xenografts to enrich the tumor cell fraction. We identified numerous focal DNA amplifications and deletions, including in 19% of pancreatobiliary cases gain at cytoband 18q11.2, a locus uncommonly amplified in other tumor types. The smallest shared amplification at 18q11.2 included GATA6, a transcriptional regulator previously linked to normal pancreas development. When amplified, GATA6 was overexpressed at both the mRNA and protein level, and strong immunostaining was observed in 25 of 54 (46%) primary pancreatic cancers compared to 0 of 33 normal pancreas specimens surveyed. GATA6 expression in xenografts was associated with specific microarray gene-expression patterns, enriched for GATA binding sites and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation activity. siRNA mediated knockdown of GATA6 in pancreatic cancer cell lines with amplification led to reduced cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, and colony formation. Our findings indicate that GATA6 amplification and overexpression contribute to the oncogenic phenotypes of pancreatic cancer cells, and implicate GATA6 as a lineage-specific oncogene in pancreatobiliary cancer, with implications for novel treatment strategies. Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc. Tissue type: cancer xenograft from diff tissues Keywords: Logical Set cDNA microarrays from the Stanford Functional Genomics Facility were used to perform gene expression profiling on 28 out of 31 of the exocrine pancreatic cancer and all 6 distal bile duct cancer xenografts.

Project description:The aim of this study is to compare the transcriptomic profiles of various ex vivo models of pancreatic cancer. First, primary tumours and their corresponding xenografts in nude mice were analysed by RNA-seq. Monocultures of pancreatic cancer cells derived from the xenografts were then prepared as 2D monolayers, Matrigel-embedded organoids, spheres in suspension and 3D cultures in self-assembling peptide amphiphile (PA) hydrogels. Seven-day cultures were then analysed by RNA-seq. The results suggest that all ex vivo monocultures retain patient-specific transcriptional profiles, especially cancer stem cell signatures, while being deficient in the expression of stromal components such as the core matrisome. Correlations with the primary tumours were generally higher in PA hydrogels than organoids. Biased gene expression signatures were identified in certain models. This is the first study to explore the transcriptomic signatures of four different ex vivo models matched to their primary tumours of origin.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a devastating disease with both an extremely poor prognosis and response to conventional chemotherapy. Identifying novel biological vulnerabilities is therefore critical in the development of more effective therapies. By using patient-derived organoids and murine genetic models, we developed a pipeline for identifying biologically active deubiquitylases (DUBs) with activity-based proteomics, coupled with a loss-of-function genetic screen in organoids. We found that ubiquitin specific protease 25 (USP25) is indispensable for PDAC progression. Compared with normal pancreatic tissue, USP25 was highly expressed and active in murine PDAC tumours and in primary human PDAC samples. Silencing of Usp25/USP25 led to reduced tumour organoid formation and viability, and transcriptional profiling revealed that USP25 is a regulator of hypoxia, glycolysis and HIF-1 signalling pathways. Mechanistically, we found that USP25 directly interacts with HIF-1 and that its deubiquitylase activity regulates HIF-1 protein stability, nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity. Moreover, treatment with a novel USP25 inhibitor resulted in a dramatic loss of murine and patient-derived organoid viability, HIF-1 signalling, and consequently induced substantial regression of murine and human organoid-derived xenografts in vivo. Thus, USP25 is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of human PDAC.

Project description:The lysyl oxidase family represents a promising target in stromal targeting of solid tumours due to the importance of this family in cross-linking and stabilising fibrillar collagens, and its known role in tumour desmoplasia. Using small-molecule drug design approaches, we generated and validated PXS-5505, a first-in-class, highly selective and potent pan-lysyl oxidase inhibitor. We demonstrate in vitro and in vivo that pan-lysyl oxidase inhibition decreases chemotherapy-induced pancreatic tumour desmoplasia and stiffness, reduces cancer cell invasion and metastasis, improves tumour perfusion, and enhances the efficacy of chemotherapy in the autochthonous genetically engineered KPC model, whilst also demonstrating anti-fibrotic effects in human PDX models of pancreatic cancer. PXS-5505 is orally bioavailable, safe and effective at inhibiting lysyl oxidase activity in tissues. Our findings present the rationale for progression of the first pan-lysyl oxidase inhibitor aimed at eliciting a reduction in stromal matrix to potentiate chemotherapy in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: PDAC) is one of the most aggressive neoplastic diseases. Metformin use was associated with reduced pancreatic cancer incidence or better survival in diabetics. Metformin has been shown to inhibit PDAC cells survival and growth in vitro and in vivo. However, clinical trials using metformin failed to decrease pancreatic cancer progression in patients, raising important questions about molecular mechanisms that protect tumor cells from the antineoplastic activities of metformin. We confirm that metformin acts through inhibition of mitochondrial complex I, decreasing the NAD+/NADH ratio and that NAD+/NADH homeostasis determines metformin sensitivity in several cancer cell lines. Metabolites that can restore the NAD+/NADH ratio turned PDAC cells resistant to metformin. In addition, metformin treatment of PDAC cell lines induced a compensatory NAMPT expression increasing the pool of cellular NAD+. The NAMPT inhibitor FK866 sensitized PDAC cells to the antiproliferative effects of metformin in vitro and decreased cellular NAD+ pool. Intriguingly, FK866 combined with metformin increased survival in mice bearing KP4 cells xenografts but not in mice with PANC1 xenografts. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the drug combination reactivated genes in the p53 pathway and oxidative stress providing new insights about the mechanisms leading to cancer cell death.
