Project description:Background: The acquisition of drug resistance is one of the most malignant phenotypes of cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in various types of cancers, but its role in taxane-resistance of prostate cancer remains poorly understood. Methods: In order to identify miRNAs related to taxane-resistance, miRNA profiling was performed using prostate cancer PC3 cells and paclitaxel-resistant PC3 cell lines established from PC3 cells. Microarray analysis of mRNA expression was also conducted to search for potential target genes of miRNA. The effects of ectopic expression of miRNA on cell growth, tubulin polymerization, drug sensitivity and apoptotic signaling pathway were investigated in a paclitaxel-resistant PC3 cell line. Results: The expression of miR-130a was down-regulated in all paclitaxel-resistant cell lines compared with parental PC3 cells. Based on mRNA microarray analysis, we identified SLAIN1 and CAV2 as potential target genes for miR-130a. Transfection with a miR-130a precursor into a paclitaxel-resistant cell line suppressed cell growth and increased the sensitivity to paclitaxel. Lastly, ectopic expression of miR-130a did not affect the polymerized tubulin level, but activated apoptotic signaling through activation of caspase-8. Conclusion: These results suggested that miR-130a may be involved in the paclitaxel-resistance and could be a therapeutic target for taxane-resistant prostate cancer. Human hormone-refractory prostate cancer PC3 cells were cultured in RPMI1640 medium supplemented with 10 % of fetal bovine serum, 100 units/ml of penicillin and 100 ug/ml of streptomycin. Paclitaxel-resistant PC3PR20, PC3PR70 and PC3PR200 cells, which respectively could proliferate in the presence of 20, 70 and 200 nM of paclitaxel (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), were previously established from PC3 cells by a stepwise increase of paclitaxel in the culture medium (Kojima et al, 2010, Prostate 70: 1501-12).

Project description:CADM1 overexpresion and stepwise downregulation of CD7 in CD4+T-cells from ATL patients and HTLV-1 carriers accurately reflect the process of disease, i.e., oligoclonally and clonally exanding cells are accumulated in D (CADM1posCD7dim) and N (CADM1posCD7neg) populations, respectively. Moreover, gene expression profiling of each subpopulation supported that notion. PBMCs of asymptomatic carriers (ACs) and ATLs were subgrouped based on CADM1 and CD7 expression levels by multicolor flow cytometry. FACS-sorted subpopulations were then subjected to extraction of total RNA, followed by Cy-3 labeling and human whole genome gene expression microarray analyses.

Project description:Using a microarray-based miRNA profiling, we found in a model of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that the activity of the oncoprotein BCR-ABL1 regulates the expression of miR-21, a "onco-microRNA" known to be overexpressed in numerous cancers. This relies on the phosphorylation status of STAT5, a transcription factor known to be activated by the kinase activity of BCR-ABL1. Mir-21 regulates the expression of PDCD4 (programmed cell death protein 4), a tumor suppressor identified here through a proteomics approach The microRNA repertoire of K562 cells having been either not treated (n=3) or treated (n=3) with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor Imatinib (1microM, 24h) was studied using Agilent microRNA V2 microarrays

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. Male CD-1 mice and WH rats (4 animals/dose) were fed diets containing 0 (control) or 2500 ppm NaPB for 7 days. Male chimeric mice (4-5 animals/dose) also fed diets containing 0 (control) or 1000 ppm NaPB for 7 days. Liver samples were used for gene expression analysis.

Project description:HTLV-1 infected individuals stay as carriers for their lifetimes, while the rest of 5% are killed by ATL. ATL leukemogenesis is a complex process involving accumulation of multiple genetic abnormalities in HTLV-1 infected cells. To clarify genetic events underlying ATL leukemogenesis, we conducted comprehensive miRNA expression profiling in 40 ATL patients and in 22 healthy volunteers. Total RNA samples from PBMC of ATL patients (mostly HTLV-1 inefcted CD4+ T-cells) and from CD4+ T-cells from healthy donors were subjected to Cy-3 labeling followed by miRNA expression microarray analyses.

Project description:The Urine RNA from 5 ovarian cancer and 5 healthy control were analyzed with the Human miRNA Microarray and then validated with a quantitative reverse-transcription PCR assay with 29 individual samples, 20 benign gynecological disease and 26 age/sex-matched healthy control. This study determines the clinical value of urine miRNAs as biomarker for epithelial ovarian cancer. Results: The miRNA microarray results demonstrate that the original 38 were identified that were significantly differentially expression in epithelial ovarian cancer compared with healthy control (P<0.01). A total of 1 miRNA was up-regulated in ovarian cancer, while 37 miRNA were down-regulated. the urine RNA from 5 ovarian cancer and 5 healthy women were analysised with Human mirRNA microarry

Project description:The anti-epileptic drug zonisamide is reported to exert beneficial effects in patients with Parkinson's disease. To elucidate the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the anti-parkinsonism effects of zonisamide, we examined the effect of zonisamide co-administered with levodopa in the striata of rats with 6-hydoroxydopamine hemiparkinsonism by using a DNA microarray for genome-wide gene expression profiling. We found that the expression of some genes related to metabolism and nervous system development and function were upregulated by zonisamide; expression of these genes was downregulated by levodopa. Furthermore, many genes related to the immune system and inflammation were downregulated by zonisamide, and their expression was upregulated by levodopa. These results indicate that zonisamide has a protective effect when co-administered with levodopa. Rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital 240 mg/kg, i.p. and unilateral lesions of the left medial forebrain bundle were made via injection of 8 mg 6-OHDA hydrobromide in 4 ml of sterile saline containing 0.01% ascorbic acid. Motor disturbance was assessed by counting the number of full rotations per min in a cylindrical container of M-OM-^F30 cm diameter at 10-min intervals for the first 60 min after METH (3 mg/kg, i.p.) administration [3]. Behavioral screening was carried out after 2-3 weeks of recovery and animals that performed at least 7 turns/min during METH challenge were certified as hemiparkinsonism rats and included in the study. Seven days after METH challenge, hemiparkinsonism rats were treated with saline, L-DOPA (100 mg/kg, i.p.), or L-DOPA (100 mg/kg, i.p.) and ZNS (50 mg/kg, i.p.) once per day for 7 days. L-DOPA was injected 30 min after benserazide hydrochloride (a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor). ZNS was injected 30 min after L-DOPA injection. The 4 experimental groups were classified as follows: the non-lesioned side of saline-treated 6-OHDA-injected rats (NL), the lesioned side of saline-treated 6-OHDA-injected rats (SL), the lesioned side of L-DOPA-treated 6-OHDA-injected rats (DL), and the lesioned side of L-DOPA and ZNS-treated 6-OHDA-injected rats (ZDL). Three animals were assigned to each group.

Project description:To reveal influence of anesthesia in toxicogenomics study, gene expression analysis of liver of Sprague-Dawley rat after isoflurane anesthesia or CO2/O2 anesthesia was performed. The liver samples were excised from each rat after isoflurane anesthesia or CO2/O2 anesthesia. The gene expression profiles in liver were measureed by Agilent microarray. In animal study, corn oil was administrated for three days in Sprague-Dawley rats of 9-week-old. Rats were killed after isoflurane anesthesia (n=3) or CO2/O2 anesthesia (n=3). Microarray analysis was performed one replicate per array.
