Project description:Microarray analysis in the mouse metastatic tumor after ɣ-irradiation(ɣ-IR): non-irradiated primary tumor vs. radiated primary tumor vs. metastatic tumor after ɣ-irradiation Metastatic tumors in C6-L (rat glioma cells ) xenografted mice were studied after local treatment with fractionated γ-IR. To accurately detect the metastatic nodules after γ-IR, we observed the effect of γ-IR on distant metastatic tumor growth. Metastatic nodules after γ-IR indicated extensive colonization of C6-L cells in the lungs within 6 weeks after γ-IR. Identified and described the molecular events occurring after γ-IR through gene expression profiling to elucidate genetic changes (differentially expressed genes between the γ-IR primary tumors vs. non-γ-IR primary tumors and metastatic lung nodules vs. γ-IR primary tumors). We investigated the change of gene expression profile in the γ-IR primary tumors vs. non-γ-IR primary tumors and metastatic lung nodules vs. γ-IR primary tumors in rat glioma (C6-L cell) xenograft model.
Project description:In order to establish a rat embryonic stem cell transcriptome, mRNA from rESC cell line DAc8, the first male germline competent rat ESC line to be described and the first to be used to generate a knockout rat model was characterized using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis.
Project description:We have grown C6 glioma cells and rat astrocytes, as well as astrocyte cells co-cultured together with C6 glioma. We performed proteome-wide LC-MS analysis of this experimental groups. The data including LC-MS/MS raw files and exported MaxQuant report. For our co-cultivated in vitro model we used astrocytes and C6 glioma cells. Astrocytes cell lines isolated from rat brain tissue. We analyzed astrocytes in two conditions: beforeand after co-cultivation. Proteins were assessed in an untargeted label-free bottom-up proteomic experiment using IDA approach (i.e. InformationDependent Acquisition) on AB Sciex TripleTOF 6600 Q-TOF mass-spectrometer coupled with LFQ (label-free quantification) approach by MaxQuant software. Dataset covers 165 samples (11 biological rand 5 technical replicates)
Project description:(R,R’)-4-methoxy-1-naphthylfenoterol (MNF) inhibits in vitro proliferation of several types of cancer cell lines. In this study, the in vivo antitumor effects of MNF were evaluated using rat C6 glioma cells implanted subcutaneously into the lower flank of 5 week-old NMRI/Nude female Swiss mice. Three days after the inoculation, the mice were subjected to intraperitoneal injections of saline or MNF (2mg/kg) for five days per week for16 days. Tumor volumes were measured everyday using slide calipers. Significant reductions in mean tumor volumes were observed in mice receiving MNF when compared with the saline-treated group (p<0.001, n=17-19). At the end of the study, animals were sacrificed and tumors were collected for cDNA microarray, quantitative RT-PCR and immunoblot analyses. Significant decrease in expression of genes involved in cellular proliferation, including mitotic checkpoint kinase MAD3L (Bub1b), cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 3 (Cdkn3) and cyclin A2 (Ccna2), as well as molecular markers for glioblastoma, such as oligodendrocyte transcription factor 1 (Olig1) and SRY-box 4 (Sox4) was observed in tumors of MNF-treated mice as compared to saline-injected controls. The efficacy of MNF against C6 glioma cancer in vivo was accompanied by marked reduction in the expression of cell cycle regulator proteins, including cyclin A and cyclin D1, in tumor extracts. This study is the first demonstration of MNF-dependent chemoprevention in a glioblastoma xenograft model in the mouse and may offer a potential mechanism for its anticancer action in vivo.
