Project description:Gene profiles from three dasatinib-resistant and three dasatinib-sensitive pancreatic cancer cell lines were compared by microarray analysis.
Project description:Gene profiles from three dasatinib-resistant and three dasatinib-sensitive pancreatic cancer cell lines were compared by microarray analysis. RNA from three dasatinib-resistant (MiaPaCa2, Panc1, SU8686) and three dasatinib-sensitive (Panc0504, Panc0403, Panc1005) pancreatic cancer cell lines were extracted. Biological triplicates were employed for each cell line. Complementary DNA microarray analysis was performed using Illumina Human HT-12 v4 BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, CA) at the National University of Singapore Core Facility following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling was conducted on RNA from 16 prostatic cancer cell lines to identify genes whose expression level correlate with sensitivity of an anti-tumor agent (dasatinib). Keywords: comparison of sensitive group versus resistant group of cell lines to agent
Project description:Mechanisms of resistance and sensitivity to the multi-targeted kinase inhibitor dasatinib are unknown. We previously found that lung cancer cells with kinase-inactivating BRAF mutations are sensitive to dasatinib and undergo senescence whereas cells with wild type BRAF are resistant. To better understand mechanisms underlaying the differential sensitivity of lung cancer cells to dasatinib, we performed gene expression profiling of lung cancer cells with (sensitive) and without (resistant) kinase-inactivating BRAF mutations
Project description:Purpose: Several ALL subtypes have been described depending on their karyotype, cell type, immunophenotype and gene-expression profile. Recently, a novel ALL subtype has been described and is characterized by expression of the pre-B cell receptor (pre-BCR). Interestingly, half of the cases is associated with the chromosomal translocation t(1:19), coding for the chimeric fusion protein E2A-PBX1, which is present in about 5% of pediatric and adult ALL. Using preclinical models, we and other groups have shown very promising preclinical activity of dasatinib in pre-BCR+ ALL and early clinical evidence supports our observations. To study mechanism of acquired dasatinib resistance, we generated dasatinib-resistant pre-BCR+/E2A-PBX1+ cell lines through multiple passages in the presence of increasing drug concentrations. Whole transcriptome analysis of dasatinib-sensitive and resistant ALL cells were performed to detect systematically differentially expressed genes and enriched pathways involved in dasatinib resistance.
