Transcription profiling of human A540 non small cell carcinoma cell lines reveals synergy between PPARgamma ligands and platinum-based drugs in cancer

ABSTRACT: PPARÎ³ is a member of the nuclear receptor family for which agonist ligands have anti-growth effects. However, clinical studies using PPARÎ³ ligands as a monotherapy failed to show a beneficial effect. Here we have studied the effects of PPARÎ³ activation with chemotherapeutic agents in current use for specific cancers. We observed a striking synergy between rosiglitazone and platinum-based drugs in several different cancers both in vitro and using transplantable and chemically induced âspontaneousâ tumor models. The effect appears to be due in part to PPARÎ³-mediated downregulation of metallothioneins, proteins that have been shown to be involved in resistance to platinum-based therapy. These data strongly suggest combining PPARÎ³ agonists and platinum-based drugs for the treatment of certain human cancers Experiment Overall Design: Cells were treated with either DMSO/control, rosiglitazone, carboplatin or combination or rosiglitazone and carboplatin in duplicate for 24 hr. RNA was isolated and microarray analysis carried out by the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute Microarray Core.

Project description:Purpose:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) commonly metastasizes to the brain and predicts poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. TNBC frequently harbors BRCA mutations translating to platinum sensitivity; platinum response may be augmented by additional suppression of DNA repair mechanisms through poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP) inhibition. We evaluated brain penetrance and efficacy of Carboplatin +/- the PARP inhibitor ABT888, and investigated gene expression changes in murine intracranial (IC) TNBC models stratified by BRCA and molecular subtype status. Experimental design:Athymic mice were inoculated intra-cerebrally with BRCA-mutant: SUM149 (basal), MDA-MB-436 (claudin-low), or BRCA-wild-type: MDA-MB-468 (basal), MDA-MB-231BR (claudin-low) TNBC cells and treated with PBS control (IP, weekly), Carboplatin (50mg/kg/week, IP), ABT888 (25mg/kg/day, OG), or their combination. DNA-damage (?-H2AX) and apoptosis (cleaved-Caspase-3(cC3)) were assessed via IHC of IC tumors. Gene expression of BRCA-mutant IC tumors was measured. Results: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 significantly improved survival in BRCA-mutant IC models compared to control, but did not improve survival in BRCA-wild-type IC models. Carboplatin+ABT888 revealed a modest survival advantage versus Carboplatin in BRCA-mutant models. ABT888 yielded a marginal survival benefit in the MDA-MB-436 but not in the SUM149 model. BRCA-mutant SUM149 expression of ?-H2AX and cC3 proteins was elevated in all treatment groups compared to Control, while BRCA-wild-type MDA-MB-468 cC3 expression did not increase with treatment. Carboplatin treatment induced common gene expression changes in BRCA-mutant models.Conclusions: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 improves survival in BRCA-mutant IC TNBC models with corresponding DNA damage and gene expression changes. Combination therapy represents a promising treatment strategy for patients with TNBC brain metastases warranting further clinical investigation. reference x sample

Project description:Background: Current protocols for the treatment of ovarian cancer include combination chemotherapy with a platinating agent and a taxane. However, many patients experience relapse of their cancer and the development of drug resistance is not uncommon, making successful second line therapy difficult to achieve. The objective of this study was to develop a cell line resistant to both carboplatin and docetaxel (dual drug resistant ovarian cell line A2780CBNDXL), along with single agent resistant lines (docetaxel resistant A2780DXL and carboplatin resistant A2780CBN), to investigate the mechanisms which underlie the development of dual drug resistance. Methods: The A2780 epithelial ovarian cancer cell line was used to select for isogenic carboplatin, docetaxel and dual drug resistant cell lines. A selection method of gradually increasing drug doses was implemented to avoid clonal selection. Resistance was confirmed using a clonogenic assay. Changes in gene expression associated with the development of drug resistance were determined by microarray analysis compared to parental co-culture control A2780CC. Changes in selected genes were validated by QPCR and immunoblotting. Results: Three isogenic cell lines were developed and resistance to each drug or the combination of drugs was confirmed. Development of resistance was accompanied by a reduced growth rate. The microarray and QPCR analyses showed that unique changes in gene expression occurred in the dual drug resistant cell line and that genes known to be involved in resistance could be identified in all cell lines. Conclusions: Novel changes in gene expression can occur in the development of dual drug resistance, indicating that dual drug resistance is not a simple combination of the changes occurring in single agent resistance Carboplatin, docetaxel (GSE26129) and carboplatin/docetaxel dual resistant cell lines of ovarian A2780 were generated for gene expression profilling. Two colour microarray of Agilent whole human genome nucleotide arrays was conducted with two replicate of both forward and reverse labellings for each cell line. Four arrays were used for this experiments. And it was four replicate of both forward and reverse labellings for A2780 cells. Eight arrays were used for this experiments
