Project description:To determine the signaling networks that are dysregulated in cisplatin-resistant non-small cell lung cancer, noncoding RNA expression data were obtained from, and compared between, the lung adenocarcinoma cell line, A549, and its cisplatin-resistant derivative, A549/CDDP. Noncoding RNA expression data from a cisplatin-sensitive lung adenocarcinoma cancer cell line (A549) were collected and compared to noncoding RNA expression data from a cisplatin-resistant cell line (A549/CDDP). 3 independent experiments were completed for both the sensitive and resistant cell lines.
Project description:Combination of platinum-based chemotherapy and radiation is currently the standard treatment for locally advanced lung cancer patients. However, therapeutic resistance to these therapies may arise from the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs). To investigate the CSCs hypothesis of chemo-radiation resistance, we used microarray assay to profile CSCs-like cisplatin-resistant lung cancer cells (CDDP-R) versus its parental cells. CDDP-R cells were established by exposing H460 lung cancer cells to 3µM cisplatin for 7 days, followed by 0.8% methylcellulose selection over 14 consecutive days. We found that CDDP-R cells expressed higher levels of stem cell markers, including CD133 and ALDH. They are more resistant to cisplatin- and etoposide-induced apoptosis and to high radiation dose (20Gy). Clonogenic assays suggest that CDDP-R cells were more resistant to radiation than parental H460 cells (DER=1.21, p<0.01). Xenograft studies suggest that CDDP-R cells were more tumorigenic (p<0.001). Microarray and comprehensive protein interaction networks analyses revealed IGFBP3 as a highly ranked hub protein which plays an important role in the mechanism of cisplatin resistance. We found reduced level of IGFBP3 and enhanced IGFR-1 activation upon IGF stimulation in CDDP-R cells. The specific targeting of IGF-1R using siRNA resulted in significant sensitization of CDDP-cells (DER=1.17, p<0.05) to radiation compared with the parental H460 cells. Our findings suggest that CDDP-R cells have the characteristics of CSCs and constitute a “suitable” model to study lung CSCs. Profiling of CSCs-like H460 cells led to the identification of IGF as an important pathway for chemo- and radiotherapy resistance in lung cancer. gene expression comparison of two groups

Project description:SCLC is the most aggressive subtype of lung cancer characterized by a remarkable response to chemotherapy followed by development of resistance. Mechanisms of initial sensitivity and of subsequent resistance are not understood. Here we highlight a broad tumor heterogeneity in mouse models of SCLC, which includes a CDH1 high primary cisplatin-resistant peripheral neuroendocrine lesion with unique metabolic and structural profile. Cisplatin treatment preferentially eliminates CDH1 negative secondary tumor leaving behind CDH1 high primary lesions, thus revealing a striking differential response. We profile global protein and messenger RNA levels in vehicle and cisplatin treated lung tumor populations and find a marked reduction in proliferation and a pronounced metabolic shift following cisplatin-treatment. Our proteo-transcriptomic analysis gives insight into gene expression alterations that characterize cisplatin resistance and uncovers potential novel targets to overcome resistance of distinct populations. SCLC tumors in the mouse show heterogeneity which appears, as might be the case in humans, to be one of the underlying mechanisms of differential sensitivity to cisplatin.
Project description:Transcription profile of cancer stem cells isolated from human non-small cells lung cancer (NSCLC) H460 cells. The profile of H460 cells that were made resistant to cisplatin after a single treatment with the drug was also determined. Both profiles were finally compared. Each microarray contained one of these comparative experiments (two-channels): H460C (H460 derived CSCs) vs H460 and H460R (cisplatin-resistant H460 cells) vs H460. Technical replicates were made with dye-swap-based design. Total biological replicates per cell type (H460C and H460R): 2.
Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths and its treatment is based in chemotherapy using platinum containing compounds, mainly cisplatin (CDDP). Many patients show resistance to CDDP leading to treatment failure. To understand the mechanisms involved in CDDP resistance in lung cancer, we used CDDP-sensitive (A549) and –resistant (A549/CDDP) cells to identify newly synthesized proteins in response to CDDP treatment using BONCAT technique. In addition the steady-state proteome of A549 and A549/CDDP cells was also evaluated. It was identified 70 and 69 proteins upregulated by CDDP in A549 and A549/CDDP cells, respectively. The set of proteins upregulated by CDDP in both cells are associated to GO terms related to proteostasis, telomere maintenance cell, RNA processing, cytoskeleton and response to oxidative stress. Interestingly, the profile of biological processes enriched in A549 cells after CDDP treatment is very similar to those identified in the steady-state proteome of A549/CDDP cells, suggesting their positive selection in CDDP-resistant cells development. Therefore, this study of proteomic response to CDDP is relevant to the identification of potential protein targets to development of therapeutic strategies to block drug resistance pathways.
