Project description:Eleven NSCLC cell lines with widely divergent gefitinib sensitivities were compared using gene expression. Genes associated with gefitinib response were used to classify additional NSCLC lines with unknown gefitnib sensitivity. A subset of the test set data was tested for gefitinib sensitivity, and results correlated strongly with the gene expression-based predictions; All eleven training set lines, and seven test set lines had both HGU133A and B chips done, while other test set lines had only HGU133As. Experiment Overall Design: Baseline (unstimulated) gene expression was measured in a large panel of NSCLC cell lines.

Project description:In this study, we explored the mechanisms of hypoxia-induced EGFR TKI resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harbored activating EGFR mutation. The NSCLC cell lines were exposed to normorxia or 1% oxygen for 4 weeks, and then we tested EGFR TKI sensitivity in normoxic and hypoxic NSCLC cell lines. In this microarray experiment, we used normoxic HCC827 and hypoxia-induced gefitinib resistant clones, C2-3 and C2-10. Those clones were selected with gefitinib treatment after the HCC827 were exposed to 1% oxygen for 4 weeks, and the HCC827 C2-3 and C2-10 clones were selected at random for this study.
Project description:To identify novel miRNAs involved in acquired EGFR TKI resistance in NSCLC, genome-wide miRNA expression analysis was performed in gefitinib-resistant sub-cell lines and gefitinib-sensitive parental cell lines.
Project description:We have employed a transcriptomic approach to find a molecular target that could compensate for the loss of EGFR signaling in NSCLC cell lines with acquired resistance to gefitinib with an EMT phenotype.
