Project description:Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is the most common metastatic skin cancer, and its incidence is increasing globally. In this study, metastasis-associated in lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), a long non-coding RNA, was identified to be significantly up-regulated in CSCC tumors and cell lines. We conducted RNA sequencing to characterize gene expression changes in MALAT1-silenced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma cells (A431).
Project description:Keratinocyte-derived cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the most common metastatic skin cancer, and its incidence is increasing globally. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in various biological processes, and their role in cancer progression is emerging. Whole transcriptome analysis of cSCC cells (n=8) and normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs, n=4) revealed overexpression of long intergenic ncRNA (LINC00162) in cSCC cells (GSE66412). We wanted to futher study the RNA expression profile of LINC00162 knockdown cSCC cells. Based on our observations, LINC00162 was named PICSAR (P38 Inhibited Cutaneous Squamous cell carcinoma Associated lincRNA).

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in various biological processes, and their role in cancer progression is emerging. Whole transcriptome analysis of cSCC cell lines (n=8) and normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs, n=4) revealed overexpression of long intergenic ncRNA (LINC00346) in cSCC cells (GSE66412). We wanted to futher study the RNA expression profile of LINC00346 knockdown cSCC cells. Based on our observations, LINC00346 was named PRECSIT (p53 regulated carcinoma-associated STAT3-activating long intergenic non-protein coding transcript).

Project description:EphB2 promotes progression of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
Project description:We describe a function of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in driving anti-tumor immune evasion. The kinase activity of nuclear-targeted FAK in squamous cancer cells drives exhaustion of CD8+ T-cells and recruitment of regulatory T-cells by transcriptionally regulating chemokine/cytokine and ligand-receptor networks, including transcription of Ccl5 that is crucial. These changes inhibit antigen-primed cytotoxic CD8+ T-cell activity, permitting growth of FAK-expressing tumors. To address how FAK activity in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cancer cells promotes elevated intra-tumoral regulatory T-cells, we analyzed global transcriptional profiles of SCC cells expressing or not expressing FAK.
Project description:Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF, fibroblast growth factor-7) is a fibroblast-derived mitogen, which stimulates proliferation of epithelial cells. The expression of KGF by dermal fibroblasts is induced following injury and it promotes wound repair. However, the role of KGF in cutaneous carcinogenesis and cancer progression is not known. We have examined the role of KGF in progression of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the skin. Gene expression profiling was performed of three cutaneous SCC cell lines treated with KGF (10 ng/ml) for 24 h, comparable untreated cells and of normal unterated epidermal keratinocytes to explore KGF-responce in SCC cells.
