Project description:786-0 is a cell line derived from a clear cell renal carcinoma. Previous studies have shown that the 786-O cell line harbors an inactivating mutation in the von-Hippel Lindau (VHL) gene. Mutations in the VHL gene occur in the majority of sporadic clear cell renal cell. To determine how inactivation of the VHL affects cellular functions, we created a derivative of 786-0, which we call 786-VHL in which a functional allele of VHL has been introduced back into the 786-O cell line. The renal cell carcinoma cell line 786-0, which harbors a mutated allele of VHL, was compared to a cell line derived from 786-0, termed 786-VHL, that contains a functional allele of VHL. Genes whose expression characteristics were dependent on functional VHL were identified.

Project description:While early stages of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) are curable, survival outcome for metastatic ccRCC remains poor. The purpose of the current study was to apply a new individualized bioinformatics analysis (IBA) strategy to these transcriptome data in conjunction with Gene Set Enrichment Analysis of the Connectivity Map (C-MAP) database to identify and reposition FDA-approved drugs for anti-cancer therapy. We demonstrated that one of the drugs predicted to revert the RCC gene signature towards normal kidney, pentamidine, is effective against RCC cells in culture and in a RCC xenograft model. Most importantly, pentamidine slows tumor growth in the 786-O human ccRCC xenograft mouse model. To determine which genes are regulated by pentamidine in a human RCC cell line, 786-O, we treated these cells with pentamidine and performed transcriptional profiling analysis. We used microarrays to determine the set of genes regulated by pentamidine in 786-O renal cell cancer cells. Total RNA was isolated from 786-O cells treated with 25 μM pentamidine or vehicle control (DMSO) for 6 hours and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Glomerular podocytes are highly differentiated cells that are key components of the kidney filtration units. The podocyte cytoskeleton builds the basis for the dynamic podocyte cytoarchitecture and plays a central role for proper podocyte function. Recent studies implicate that immunosuppressive agents including the mTOR-inhibitor everolimus have a protective role directly on the stability of the podocyte cytoskeleton. To elucidate mechanisms underlying mTOR-inhibitor mediated cytoskeletal rearrangements, we carried out microarray gene expression studies to identify target genes and corresponding pathways in response to everolimus. We analyzed the effect of everolimus in a puromycin aminonucleoside experimental in vitro model of podocyte injury. Upon treatment with puromycin aminonucleoside, microarray analysis revealed gene clusters involving cytoskeletal-associated pathways, adhesion, migration and extracellular matrix composition to be affected. Everolimus is capable of protecting podocytes from injury, both on the transcriptome and protein level. Rescued genes included TUBB2B and DCDC2, both involved in microtubule structure formation in neuronal cells but not identified in podocytes so far. Confirming gene expression data, Western-blot analysis in cultured podocytes showed an increase of TUBB2B and DCDC2 protein after everolimus treatment, and immunohistochemistry in healthy control kidneys confirmed a podocyte-specific expression. Microtubule-inhibitor experiments led to a maldistribution of TUBB2B and DCDC2 as well as an aberrant reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Tubb2bbrdp/brdp mice showed a delay in glomerular podocyte and capillary development. Taken together, our study suggests that off-target, non-immune mediated effects of the mTOR-inhibitor everolimus on the podocyte cytoskeleton might involve regulation of microtubules, revealing a potential novel role of TUBB2B and DCDC2 in glomerular podocyte development We analyzed the effect of everolimus on gene expression in a puromycin aminonucleoside experimental in vitro model of podocyte injury using microarrays

Project description:Rapamycin is a natural antifungal, immunosuppressive, and antiproliferative compound allosterically inhibiting mTOR complex 1. The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) responsible for protein turnover is usually not listed among the pathways affected by mTOR signaling; however, a number of reports indicated the interplay between UPS and mTOR. It is also reported that rapamycin and analogs can allosterically inhibit the proteasome itself. We studied the molecular effect of rapamycin and its analogs (rapalogs), everolimus, and temsirolimus by expression chemical proteomics on A549 cell line. The analysis revealed that the cellular response to everolimus differs dramatically from that of rapamycin and temsirolimus. In cluster analysis the effect of everolimus was similar to that of bortezomib, a well-established proteasome inhibitor. UPS-related pathways were enriched in the cluster of proteins specifically up-regulated upon everolimus and bortezomib treatments, suggesting that both compounds have similar proteasome inhibition effects. In particular, the total amount of ubiquitin was significantly elevated in the samples treated with everolimus and bortezomib, and the analysis of the polyubiquitination patterns revealed elevated intensities of the ubiquitin peptide with a GG modification at K48 residue, consistent with a bottleneck in the proteasomal protein degradation. Moreover, everolimus treatment resulted in both ubiquitin phosphorylation and a significant amount of semi-tryptic peptides illustrating the induction of protease activity. These observations suggest that everolimus affects the ubiquitin-proteasome system in a unique way and its mechanism of action is strikingly different from that of its close chemical analogs, rapamycin and temsirolimus.

Project description:Inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor gene, VHL, is an archetypical tumor-initiating event in clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) that leads to the activation of hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs). However, VHL mutation status in ccRCC is not correlated with clinical outcome. Here we show that during ccRCC progression, cancer cells exploit diverse epigenetic alterations to empower a branch of the VHL-HIF pathway for metastasis, and the strength of this activation is associated with poor clinical outcome. By analyzing metastatic subpopulations of VHL-deficient ccRCC cells, we discovered an epigenetically altered VHL-HIF response that is specific to metastatic ccRCC. Focusing on the two most prominent pro-metastatic VHL-HIF target genes, we show that loss of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2)-dependent histone H3 Lys27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) activates HIF-driven chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4) expression in support of chemotactic cell invasion, whereas loss of DNA methylation enables HIF-driven cytohesin 1 interacting protein (CYTIP) expression to protect cancer cells from death cytokine signals. Thus, metastasis in ccRCC is based on an epigenetically expanded output of the tumor-initiating pathway. Gene expression profiles of 786-O renal cell carcinoma cells and metastatic subpopulations isoloated by in vivo selection in immunocomrpmized mice. The derivatives are significantly enriched in the metastatic propensity as measure by experimental metastasis assays.

Project description:In this project, we generated chronic sunitinib-treated 786-O cell, a renal cell carcinoma cell line. In order to investigate the possible effect of GPR30 agonist, G-1, on the growth-inhibtion related signaling pathways, we treated either parental both parental and chronic sunitinib-treated 786-O cells were treated either by vehicle-only (i.e. 0.1% DMSO) or 2 μM G-1 for 48 h. Therefore, there were three groups for comparison, including G-1 treatment (G-1 vs. parental), chronic sunitinib-treatment (SunR vs. parental), and G-1 treatment in SunR cells (SunR&G-1 vs. parental).
