Project description:MM.1S orthotopic tumors were analyzed fro their gene expression upon tumor outgrowth. In contorl/bortezomib/elesclmol and combo treatments.
Project description:Global proteomics of Multiple Myeloma cell line MM.1S treated with pomalidomide or cyclic imide dipeptides for 10 h. The samples were labeled with TMT-16pro.
Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) evolves from highly prevalent premalignant condition termed Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance (MGUS). We report an MGUS-MM phenotype arising in transgenic mice with Emu-directed expression of the unfolded protein/ER stress response and plasma cell development spliced isoform factor XBP-1s. Emu-XBP-1s elicited elevated serum Ig and IL-6 levels, skin alterations and with advancing age, a significant proportion of Emu-xbp-1s transgenic mice develop features diagnostic of human MM including bone lytic lesions. Transcriptional profiles of Emu-xbp-1s B lymphoid and MM cells show aberrant expression of genes known to be dysregulated in human MM including Cyclin D1, MAF, MAFB, and APRIL. This genetic model coupled with documented frequent XBP-1s overexpression in human MM serve to implicate chronic XBP-1s dysregulation in the development of this common and lethal malignancy. Experiment Overall Design: In this study, we have explored the biological impact of sustained XBP-1s expression in the lymphoid system, anticipating that this genetic event would be a necessary component along with other MM-relevant oncogenes and tumor suppressor gene manipulations to generate a MM-prone mouse model. Unexpectedly, XBP-1s overexpression alone yielded an MGUS-MM disease bearing many features classical of the human disease on the clinical, pathological and molecular levels. Experiment Overall Design: We performed expression analysis of B cells derived from the spleen of 20-week old Emu-xbp-1s mice (n=5) and non-transgenic mice (n=5). Additionally, we analyzed the expression profiles from MM tumor cells arising in Emu-xbp-1s mice (n=6).
Project description:To dissect the roles of ARID2 and Aiolos in pomalidomide-induced transcriptional changes, we performed mRNA-sequencing of MM.1S cells expressing shRNA against ARID2 or Aiolos and compared them with MM.1S cells that were treated with pomalidomide for 24, 48, or 72 hours.
Project description:ATRA is important for sensitizing MM cells to Cfz. To determine what signalling pathways are affected by ATRA+Cfz in MM cells, MM.1S MM cell line was pulsed with Cfz and then cultured with DMSO or 10µM ATRA for 12 h. Total RNAs of 2 x 106 MM.1S cells for each sample were extracted by RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). 5-10 µg RNA samples were sent to Cancer Genomics Center at The University of Texas (Houston, TX) for genearray followed by data analysis. We use gene experssion profiling data to determine differential expression of genes in MM cells in culture with DMSO, ATRA, Cfz or ATRA+Cfz.
Project description:Previous study demonstrated that HDAC3 has a critical role in MM proliferation; however, the underlying mechanism has not yet been elucidated. We identify that HDAC3 inhibition targets DNMT1 through dual regulations. We demonstrate that knockdown of DNMT1 leads to apoptosis and significant growth inhibition in myeloma cells. HDAC3 inhibition by gene silencing or HDAC3 selective inhibitor BG45 downregulates an oncoprotein c-Myc through its acetylation. c-Myc directly regulates DNMT1 expression at its enhancer region. Furthermore, HDAC3 directly regulates the stability of DNMT1 protein through its acetylation. Pharmaceutical inhibition of HDAC3 and DNMT1 synergistically induce MM growth inhibition in in vitro and in vivo settings. The goal of this analysis is to identify genes whose expression changes after shRNA-mediated knockdown of HDAC3 or DNMT1 using the human U133 plus 2.0 Affymetrix GeneChip in myeloma cell line (MM.1S).
Project description:We used microarrays to examine changes in gene expression in multiple myeloma cell lines following treatment with arsenic trioxide and darinaparsin Experiment Overall Design: Four multiple myeloma cell lines (U266, MM.1s, KMS11, 8226/S) were treated with either arsenic trioxide (ATO) for 6, 24, or 48 hours or darinaparsin (DAR) for 6 or 24 hours; RNA was extracted from treated and control cells for microarray analysis
