Time Course of TGF-beta treatment of A549 lung adenocarcinoma cell line

ABSTRACT: Time Course of TGF-beta treatment of A549 lung adenocarcinoma cell line on Affymetrix HG_U133_plus_2 arrays; triplicate experiments. The goal of the experiment is to profile temporal gene expression changes during TGF-beta-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). During EMT cancer cells loose their epithelial specifc proteins and gain mesenchymal proteins to acquire migratory and invasive phenotype essential for metastasis. Human A549 lung adenocarcinoma cell line was treated with 5 ng/mL TGF-beta for 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, and 72 h to induce EMT. The experiment was repeated 3 times. Samples were assayed using Affymetrix HG_U133_plus_2 arrays with 54675 probe-sets, using standard techniques. We provide the raw .CEL files and a supplementary Excel spreadsheet with log-transformed data and selected results from a statistical analysis.

Project description:Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has recently been recognized as a key element of cell invasion, migration, metastasis, and drug resistance in several types of cancer, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Our aim was to clarify microRNA (miRNA) -related mechanisms underlying EMT followed by acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) in NSCLC. MiRNA expression profiles were examined before and after transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-M-NM-21) exposure in four human adenocarcinoma cell lines with or without EMT. Correlation between expressions of EMT-related miRNAs and resistance to EGFR-TKI gefitinib was evaluated. MiRNA array and quantitative RT-PCR revealed that TGF-M-NM-21 significantly induced overexpression of miR-134, miR-487b, and miR-655, which belong to the same cluster located on chromosome 14q32, in lung adenocarcinoma cells with EMT. MAGI2 (membrane-associated guanylate kinase, WW and PDZ domain-containing protein 2), a predicted target of these miRNAs and a scaffold protein required for PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog), was diminished in A549 cells with EMT after the TGF-M-NM-21 stimulation. Overexpression of miR-134 and miR-487b promoted the EMT phenomenon and affected the drug resistance to gefitinib, whereas knockdown of these miRNAs inhibited the EMT process and reversed TGF-M-NM-21-induced resistance to gefitinib. Our study demonstrated that the miR-134/487b/655 cluster contributed to the TGF-M-NM-21-induced EMT phenomenon and affected the resistance to gefitinib by directly targeting MAGI2, whose suppression subsequently caused loss of PTEN stability in lung cancer cells. The miR-134/miR-487b/miR-655 cluster may be new therapeutic targets in advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients, depending on the EMT phenomenon. miRNA expression profiles before and after TGF-M-NM-21 exposure were assessed in the four lung adenocarcinoma cell lines, A549, LC2/ad, PC3, and, PC9 by TaqMan miRNA arrays. Relative ratios of miRNAs in cells after TGF-M-NM-21 exposure were calculated when compared with the cells before TGF-M-NM-21 exposure.
