Project description:We performed single cell RNA sequencing of Epcam+ sorted cells from murine prostate cancer models to characterize the epithelial compartment of the tumors.
Project description:Using the immunocompetent bone-metastatic RM1 murine model of prostate cancer, the transriptomes of proliferating (PKH26-) eCFP+/luc2+ RM1 single cells (referred to as RM1536) were compared to dormant (PKH26+) RM1536 single cells dervied from bioluminescence imaging-verified bone metastases in mice at ~d16 post-intracardiac injection of PKH26 labelled RM1536 cells
Project description:To identify changes at multiple omic levels between hormone naive and castration resistant prostate cancer. Using orthograft murine tumour models of human cell lines injected into the prostate of CD-1 Nude mice grown under castration resistant (castrate) or hormone naive (non-castrate) conditions.
Project description:Acute Pten loss initiates prostate tumorigenesis characterized by cellular senescence response. Here we examine the cellular senescence response in epithelial individual cells, by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) in Ptenpc-/- and Ptenpc-/-; Timp1-/- GEMMs. ScRNAseq analysis determines a cluster of senescent cells expressing the senescence-related genes. A significant positive correlation is observed between the senescence score and Bcl2 expression. This provides the rational for targeting senescent cells using Bcl2 inhibitor.
Project description:We characterized myeloid cell populations in murine lung cancer models by single-cell sequencing. These data were in line with our previous findings about myeloid cell subsets in tumor microenvironment.
