Gene expression changes induced by LKB1 expression in human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines

ABSTRACT: LKB1 is a tumor suppressor lost in approximately 30% of lung adenocarcinomas. It is a serine-threonine kinase involved in regulating metabolism, proliferation, and cell polarity. We have characterized its association with mRNA expression profiles in resected tumors and in cell lines, but little is known about the direct effects of LKB1 on the regulation of these genes. This study investigates the effects of LKB1 activity on mRNA expression in two LKB1-mutant lung adenocarcinoma cell lines, H2122 and A549. Wild-type LKB1 has been stably expressed in these cell lines using a pBABE retrovirus as well as an empty pBABE control and a kinase-dead mutant of LKB1 (K78I) control (Addgene). Samples submitted are two cell lines, three experimental conditions, and three replicates, for a total of 17 s
