Abstract:
Combination chemotherapy is standard treatment for
pancreatic cancer. However, current drugs lack efficacy for
most patients, and selection and evaluation of new combination
regimens is empirical and time-consuming. The efficacy of
gemcitabine, a standard-of-care agent, combined with
birinapant, a pro-apoptotic antagonist of Inhibitor of
Apoptosis Proteins (IAPs), was investigated in pancreatic
cancer cells. PANC-1 cells were treated with vehicle,
gemcitabine (6, 10, 20 nM), birinapant (50, 200, 500 nM), and
combinations of the two drugs. Temporal changes in cell
numbers, cell cycle distribution, and apoptosis were measured.
A basic pharmacodynamic (PD) model based on cell numbers, and a
mechanism-based PD model integrating all measurements, were
developed. The basic PD model indicated that synergistic
effects occurred in both cell proliferation and death
processes. The mechanism-based model captured key features of
drug action: temporary cell cycle arrest in S phase induced by
gemcitabine alone, apoptosis induced by birinapant alone, and
prolonged cell cycle arrest and enhanced apoptosis induced by
the combination. A drug interaction term Ψ was employed in
the models to signify interactions of the combination when data
were limited. When more experimental information was utilized,
Ψ values approaching 1 indicated that specific mechanisms
of interactions were captured better. PD modeling identified
the potential benefit of combining gemcitabine and birinapant,
and characterized the key interaction pathways. An optimal
treatment schedule of pretreatment with gemcitabine for 24-48 h
was suggested based on model predictions and was verified
experimentally. This approach provides a generalizable modeling
platform for exploring combinations of cytostatic and cytotoxic
agents in cancer cell culture studies.

Project description:The goal of this study is to find a molecular signature that can predict response or resistance to Gemcitabine + Nab-paclitaxel therapy in pancreatic cancer (PC), to aid treatment selection for each patient. To this end, we analyzed blood-derived extracellular vesicles (EV).

Project description:Gemcitabine resistance is currently the main problem of chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer patients. The resistance is thought to be caused by altered drug metabolism or reduced apoptosis of cancer cells. However, the underlying mechanism of Gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer remains unclear. In this study, we established Gemcitabine resistant PANC-1 (PANC-1-GR) cell lines and compared the circular RNAs (circRNAs) profiles between PANC-1 cells and PANC-1-GR cells by RNA sequencing.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer exhibits a characteristic tumor microenvironment (TME) due to enhanced fibrosis and hypoxia and is particularly resistant to conventional chemotherapy. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying TME-associated treatment resistance in pancreatic cancer are not fully understood. Here, we developed an in vitro TME mimic system comprising pancreatic cancer cells, fibroblasts and immune cells, and a stress condition, including hypoxia and gemcitabine. Cells with high viability under stress showed evidence of increased direct cell-to-cell transfer of biomolecules. The resulting derivative cells (CD44high/SLC16A1high) were similar to cancer stem cell-like-cells (CSCs) with enhanced anchorage-independent growth or invasiveness and acquired metabolic reprogramming. Furthermore, CD24 was a determinant for transition between the tumorsphere formation or invasive properties. Pancreatic cancer patients with CD44low/SLC16A1low expression exhibited better prognoses compared to other groups. Our results suggest that crosstalk via direct cell-to-cell transfer of cellular components foster chemotherapy-induced tumor evolution and that targeting of CD44 and MCT1(encoded by SLC16A1) may be useful strategy to prevent recurrence of gemcitabine-exposed pancreatic cancers.

Project description:Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the most aggressive and lethal forms of cancer. Chemotherapy is the primary treatment for pancreatic cancer, but resistance to the drugs used remains a major challenge. A genome-wide CRISPR interference and knockout screen in the PANC-1 cell line with the drug nab-paclitaxel has identified a group of spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) genes that enhance survival in nab-paclitaxel. Knockdown of these SAC genes (BUB1B, BUB3, and TTK) attenuates paclitaxel-induced cell death. Cells treated with the small molecule inhibitors BAY 1217389 or MPI 0479605, targeting the threonine tyrosine kinase (TTK), also enhance survival in paclitaxel. Overexpression of these SAC genes does not affect sensitivity to paclitaxel. These discoveries have helped to elucidate the mechanisms behind paclitaxel cytotoxicity. The outcomes of this investigation may pave the way for a deeper comprehension of the diverse responses of pancreatic cancer to therapies including paclitaxel. Additionally, they could facilitate the formulation of novel treatment approaches for pancreatic cancer.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant tumor that is well known for its poor prognosis. It has been reported that aspirin can reduce the risk of various cancers, but the potential role of aspirin and gemcitabine in pancreatic cancer pathogenesis and chemotherapy has not been studied. Therefore, we investigated their synergistic anti-tumor effects and explored the potential molecular mechanisms and biological functions underlying their inhibitory effects on the development of pancreatic cancer in the hope of identifying treatment-related or prognostic biomarkers for the effective treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a characteristically dense stroma comprised predominantly of cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs). CAFs promote tumor growth, metastasis and treatment resistance. We aimed to investigate the molecular changes and functional consequences associated with chemotherapy treatment of PDAC CAFs. Chemoresistant immortalized CAFs (R-CAFs) were generated by continuous incubation in 100nM gemcitabine. Gene expression differences between treatment naïve CAFs (N-CAFs) and R-CAFs were compared by array analysis. Immortalized human pancreatic CAFs were grown for 30 days in either control media or media containing 100nM gemcitabine. RNA was then isolated and hybidized on U133 Plus 2.0 Affymetrix arrays.

Project description:Gemcitabine (GEM) is a key drug for treating PDAC, and it is commonly used for adjuvant chemotherapy. Although the majority of PDAC is sensitive to GEM at first, GEM cannot control PDAC for very long, suggesting that PDAC develops resistance to GEM after prolonged exposure. No reliable predictors of susceptibility to gemcitabine chemotherapy exist in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. This study assesses gemcitabine resistant PDAC for its specific mRNA expression pattern. Gemcitabine resistant variants of Panc1, a human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line, were established. mRNA screening was investigated by microarray.
