Project description:Chromobox (CBX) family proteins are components in polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1), responsible for targeting PRC1 to the chromatin. We studied genes regulated by CBX6, 7, or 8 in human ACC-Meso-4 mesothelioma cell line by microarray analysis of ACC-Meso-4 cells stably expressing short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting CBX-6, 7, 8, or control nontarget shRNA.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis following knock down of LSD1 in ACC-MESO-1 cells. Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a highly aggressive tumor that has a low overall survival; however, no significant treatment advances have been made in the past 15 years. In this study we investigated whether targeting lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1/KDM1), a histone-modifying enzyme responsible for demethylating histone H3 lysine 4 and lysine 9, could represent a novel therapeutic strategy for patients with MPM. We found that suppressing LSD1 induces an epithelial phenotype in sarcomatoid MPM cells, while attenuating the mesenchymal phenotype sensitized MPM cells to cisplatin-induced apoptosis through the FAK pathway. To investigate the potential mechanisms underlying FAK pathway activation, we performed transcriptome analysis using two different shRNA constructs against the LSD1.

Project description:Introduction: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis. Unlike many other cancers, MPM is mostly characterized by inactivation of tumor suppressor genes. Its highly malignant nature in absence of tumor driving oncogene mutations indicates an extrinsic supply of stimulating signals by cells of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are an abundant cell type of the TME and have been shown to drive the progression of several cancer types. The aim of the current study was to isolate and characterize patient-derived mesothelioma-associated fibroblasts (Meso-CAFs), and evaluate their impact on MPM cells. Methods: Meso-CAFs were isolated from surgical specimens of MPM patients and analyzed by comparative genomic hybridization, transcriptomics and proteomics. Human MPM cell lines were retrovirally transduced with GFP. The impact of Meso-CAFs on tumor cell growth, migration, and response to pathway inhibitors and cisplatin was investigated in 2D and 3D co-culture models by videomicroscopy and automated image analysis. Results: Meso-CAFs possess normal genomes without gene copy number aberrations typical for MPM cells. They express CAF markers and lack MPM marker expression. Their proteome and secretome profiles clearly differ from normal lung fibroblasts with particularly strong differences in the fraction of actively secreted proteins. The presence of Meso-CAFs in co-culture resulted in increased proliferation and migration of MPM cells. A similar effect on cell growth was induced by conditioned medium. Met/PI3K or WNT signaling inhibition abolished the Meso-CAF-mediated growth stimulation. While Meso-CAFs reduced the efficacy of EGFR inhibition in co-cultures, they did not provide protection of tumor cells against cisplatin. Conclusion: Our study provides the first characterization of human patient-derived Meso-CAFs and demonstrates a strong impact of Meso-CAFs on tumor cell growth and migration, two key aspects of MPM aggressiveness, indicating a substantial role of Meso-CAFs in driving MPM progression. Moreover, we show that Meso-CAFs significantly influence drug response and identify signaling pathways required for Meso-CAF-mediated growth stimulation. These data could be relevant for improving therapeutic strategies in MPM.

Project description:Introduction: Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is known as one of the most aggressive malignancies among all cancers, despite of usually absent tumor-driver mutations in oncogenes. It develops in a unique inflammatory tumor microenvironment (TME), which has been postulated as major contributor of PM’s highly aggressive nature. Mesothelioma-associated fibroblasts (Meso-CAFs), a main component of the TME have recently been shown to substantially stimulate several aspects of PM aggressiveness and promote the malignant transformation of pleural mesothelial cells. However, respective cell models for TME research in PM are still very limited. The most commonly used pleural mesothelial cell line Met5A has been established decades ago and patient-derived Meso-CAFs have just recently been characterized for the first time. The aim of the current study was to generate and characterize pleural mesothelial and Meso-CAF cell models with an extended life span that closely resemble the primary cells isolated from human tissue. Methods: Pleural mesothelial cells and Meso-CAFs were isolated from human tissue of pneumothorax and PM patients, respectively. Retroviral transduction was used to induce stable expression of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) in the primary cells. The established cell models were evaluated by measuring their doubling times, gene expression and protein activity levels of hTERT, as well as the absolute lengths of telomeres. The transduced cells were compared to their primary counterparts on the protein level using proteome analysis and the impact of their conditioned media (CM) on tumor cell growth was investigated by videomicroscopy. Results: All transduced derivatives exhibit elevated hTERT gene expression and protein activity, increased hTERT protein amounts in the nucleus, and moderately higher absolute telomere lengths compared to their parental primary cells. The transduction with hTERT did not elicit marked changes in the morphology of the cells, as well as in their proteomes and secretomes. The CM of primary and hTERT-transduced Meso-CAFs comparably stimulated PM cell growth, while medium conditioned by normal pleural mesothelial cells including their hTERT-transduced derivatives was not able to induce a growth stimulating effect. Conclusion: The hTERT-transduced cells closely resemble their primary counterparts, while retaining telomerase activity, thus preventing replicative senescence. The new cell models provide valuable tools for the investigation of cellular interactions cellular interactions within the TME of PM and thus may help to identify novel biomarkers for early diagnosis and to develop new therapeutic strategies.

Project description:To investigate the effect of afuresertib on gene expression, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to suppress the cell proliferation of MPM cell lines. MSTO-211H and ACC-MESO-4 cells were treated with afuresertib (10 μmol/L) for 24 h in vitro.
