Project description:Analysis of primary PDAC cells established from Pdx-1CreAPCL/+p53L/L and Pdx-1Crep53L/L mice. APC haploinsufficiency combined with P53 loss in the pancreas drives MCN progression in mice. Results provide insight into molecular mechanisms invloved in the MCN formation of Pdx-1Cre APCL/+P53L/L mice. Pdx-1CreAPC+/LP53L/L PDAC cell lines and 2 Pdx-1CreP53L/L ductal cell lines were analyzed.
Project description:Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal human malignancies and a major health problem. Patient-derived xenografts (PDX) are appearing as a prime approach for preclinical studies despite being insufficiently characterized as a model of the human disease and its diversity. We generated subcutaneous PDX from PDAC samples obtained either surgically or using diagnostic biopsies (endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspirate). The extensive multiomics characterization of the xenografts demonstrated that PDX is a suitable model for preclinical studies, representing the diversity of the primary cancers. this dataset, describe the RNA sequencing data used in the multiomics study.
Project description:A Cartes d'Identit des Tumeurs (CIT) project from the french Ligue Nationale Contre le Cancer (http://cit.ligue-cancer.net): Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal human malignancies and a major health problem.

We generated subcutaneous PDX from PDAC samples obtained either surgically or using diagnostic biopsies (endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspirate). The extensive multiomics characterization of the xenografts demonstrated that PDX is a suitable model for preclinical studies, representing the diversity of the primary cancers. the MultiOmicClassification variable indicates groups resulting from the analysis, and the CIMPclass, the CpG Island Methylator Phenotype as estimated by the methylation analysis. This dataset, describes the miRNA-Seq data used in the multiOmics analysis.
Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a deadly disease with limited effective treatment options. PDAC tumors frequently harbor the constitutively activated form of KRAS which drives proliferative signaling, but directly targeting KRAS has so far been unsuccessful. To overcome this limitation, combinatorial treatment strategies have been developed to inhibit upstream activators and downstream effectors of KRAS signaling. One such combination using trametinib, a MEK1/2 inhibitor, and lapatinib, an EGFR/HER2 inhibitor, substantially reduced tumor growth in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model of PDAC. Although trametinib and lapatinib are both known to inhibit the canonical MAPK signaling cascade, the effects of this combination on other important pathways in pancreatic cancer remains unclear. To investigate this, we analyze global gene expression profiles from PDX models of PDAC treated with trametinib, lapatinib, or their combination. Our results show that trametinib induces similar yet less significant expression changes compared to combination while lapatinib has little to no effect as a monotherapy in the acute treatment setting. In the chronic treatment setting, we show that tumors exposured to prolonged treatment with trametinib plus lapatinib eventually leads to adapative resistance. Expression analyses of resistant tumors revealed concominant gene expression changes in upstream receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs).

The variable 'MultiOmicsClassification' indicates the resulting sample's group. 'CIMPclass' is the CpG island methylator phenotype as estimated from the methylation arrays analysis. In this dataset, Illumina Infinium HumanCode-24 BeadChips SNP arrays were used to analyze the DNA xenografts samples from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Most cancers including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are infiltrated by PNS neurons participating in their complex tumor microenvironment. However, their cell bodies and nuclei are located in the para- and pre-vertebral PNS ganglia located far from the tumor mass itself. Thus, molecular information on healthy organ- vs. cancer-infiltrating neurons is currently lacking in any sequencing dataset of healthy or tumor tissue. Here, we specifically isolate fibroblasts, immune, endothelial and PDAC cells and subject them to single-cell RNA-Sequencing using the 10x genomics platform.
