ABSTRACT: Expression data of dorsolateral prostates from wild type, prostate-specific Pten knockout, and prostate-specific Pten and Pml double knockout mice
Project description:We used microarrays to analyze the global gene expression and to identify the differentially expressed genes among wild type, prostate-specific Pten knockout, and prostate-specific Pten and Pml double knockout prostates at 12 weeks of age.
Project description:The goal of this study was to perform transcriptomics on wildtype, PTEN single knockout (SKO) and PTEN;Rb1 double knockout (DKO) mouse prostate organoids. We isolated basal cells from PTEN floxed and PTEN;Rb1 floxed mouse prostates and infected with either RFP control or Cre recombinase to establish wildtype, SKO, and DKO mouse prostate organoids.
Project description:We used microarrays to analyze the global gene expression and identified differentially expressed gene list between wild-type anterior prostates and Pb-Cre4;PtenLoxP/LoxP anterior prostates, Pb-Cre4;PtenLoxP/LoxP;LrfLoxP/LoxP anterior prostates at 12 weeks of age. Prostate-specific Pten deletion (Pb-Cre4;PtenLoxP/LoxP) results in prostate intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) which, following a long latency, can progress to high-grade adenocarcinoma, albeit with minimally invasive and metastatic features. However, inactivation of Lrf in the prostate epithelium in combination of Pten results in aggressive prostate tumors. To understand the molecular mechanisms by which loss of Lrf promotes Pten-loss-driven prostate tumorigenesis, we conducted transcriptome comparison of three wild-type anterior prostates, three Pb-Cre4;PtenLoxP/LoxP PIN, and three Pb-Cre4;PtenLoxP/LoxP;LrfLoxP/LoxP anterior prostate tumors.
Project description:We report the changes in gene expression in mouse prostate comparing normal wild type prostate to tumors generated by Cre mediated deletion of Pten or Apc, either with or without deletion of Tgfbr2. Pten single mutant tumors were isolated at either 8 weeks or 22 weeks of age, with high grade prostate intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) as the main phenotype. Pten;Tgfbr2 double mutants were isolated at 8 weeks (primarily HGPIN), or at 11-14 weeks with extensive locally invasive cancer. Apc single mutants were isolated at 36 weeks old with adenosquamous HGPIN, or at 21-24 weeks of age for the Apc:Tgfbr2 double mutants, which had adenosquamous carcinoma. Ages for the two double mutant groups were based on initial signs of excess tumor burden. Wild type control prostates were isolated at around 20 weeks of age.
Project description:The goal of this study was to determine how pharmacological inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) alters lineage identity in transformed prostate organoids. We isolated basal cells from PTEN,Rb1 floxed mouse prostates and infected with Cre recombinase to establish PTEN, Rb1 double knockout (DKO) mouse prostate organoids. We then treated the DKO organoids with vehicle or 10uM UK5099 for five days.
Project description:1. Comparison of gene expression profiles of normal prostates, hyperplastic prostates (4-5 month old mice) and prostate tumors (>10 month old mice) isolated from PSA-Cre;Pten-loxP/loxP mice 2.Comparison of the gene expression profiles and molecular subtyping of prostate tumors isolated from targeted Pten knockout mice
Project description:We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression and identified differentially expressed gene list between wild-type anterior prostates and Ptenpc-/- anterior prostates, Ptenpc-/-Smad4pc-/- and Ptenpc-/- anterior prostates, Ptenpc-/-p53pc-/- and Ptenpc-/- anterior prostates at 15 weeks of age. Prostate-specific Pten deletion (Ptenpc-/-) results in prostate intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) which, following a long latency, can progress to high-grade adenocarcinoma, albeit with minimally invasive and metastatic features. To understand this feeble progression phenotype, we conducted transcriptome comparison of five Ptenpc-/- PIN relative to three wild-type anterior prostate. Moreover, Ptenpc-/-Smad4pc-/- progress to metastasis, while Ptenpc-/-p53pc-/- not progress to metastasis. To understand this phenotype difference, we conducted transcriptome comparison of five Ptenpc-/-Smad4pc-/-to five Ptenpc-/- prostate tumor, and three Ptenpc-/-p53pc-/- to five Ptenpc-/- tumor.
Project description:We performed expression mouse profiling of prostates of 3 month WT, ERG, PTEN f/f and Pten f/f;ERG mice. For WT and ERG prostates, entire prostates were dissected and total RNA immediated harvested. For Pten f/f and Pten f/f;ERG prostates, the Ventral Lobe was dissected. Mice are in the C57B6 background. The prostate were harvested and RNA isolated by standard protocols and analyzed by expression profiling.
Project description:We performed expression profiling of prostates of 3 month wild-type and PTEN NULL mice and assessed the response to 3 days of castration. Seven three month old WT and PbCre x PTEN f/f (PTEN NULL) mice were used. They are in the C57B6 background. Three mice in each group were castrated. Three days after castration, the prostate were harvested and RNA isolated by standard protocols and analyzed by expression profiling.
