Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE28744: Chemosensitization of DLBCL cells in vitro and in vivo by demethylating nucleoside analogues [gene expression] GSE31101: Chemosensitization of DLBCL cells in vitro and in vivo by demethylating nucleoside analogues [methylation] Refer to individual Series. Supplementary file [gene expression]: To better approach the delta analysis and find differences between sensitive cell lines and resistant cell lines to doxorubicin, we filtered the gene expression matrix for probes with a greater standard deviation among all samples greater than 0.5. We therefore kept 11842 probesets that we used for the analysis.

Project description:Silencing of genes that suppress the malignant phenotype by DNA methylation spurred an interest in the clinical use of epigenetic reprogramming agents. Single therapy is unlikely to be curative in the context of a heterogeneous disease such as Diffuse Large B cell Lymphomas (DLBCL). The combination of DNA demethylating drugs could increase the chance to respond to classical and new treatments. We found that DLBCL cell lines respond heterogeneously to DNA demethylating agents. In sensitive cell lines, 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine induced a genomic signature similar to that of doxorubicin, the most important drug of the combinatorial chemotherapy regimen for DLBCL treatment. Accordingly, the combination of 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine and doxorubicin proved to be synergistic in cell killing in vitro and in vivo for DLBCL cell lines individually responsive to these drugs. In doxorubicin resistant cell lines, long-term exposure to low-dose of 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine induces DNA demethylation and subsequent doxorubicin sensitization in vitro and in vivo. This later effect correlates with SMAD1 demethylation. SMAD1 is epigenetically silenced in doxorubicin-resistant DLBCL cells and DLBCL patients with poor prognostic. In addition, we found that DNA demethylating agents can sensitize primary DLBCL cells to doxorubicin. Primary cells obtained from a DLBCL patient treated with 5-azacytidine shows SMAD1 demethylation and ex vivo sensitization to multiple drugs. Therefore, DNA demethylating drugs can reprogram otherwise resistant DLBCL cells to respond to chemotherapy agents without increasing the toxicity to normal tissues. Our data also indicate that DNA methylation and consequent suppression of SMAD1 expression represent a previously undescribed molecular mechanism of chemoresistance in DLBCL that can be further exploit for therapy. A microarray study using genomic DNA from different DLBCL cell lines before any treatment. Two to four biological replicates by cell line. The HELP data wil be used to find genes hypermethylated in resistant cell lines compared to sensitive cell lines to doxorubicin and other drugs.

Project description:We have sequenced miRNA libraries from human embryonic, neural and foetal mesenchymal stem cells. We report that the majority of miRNA genes encode mature isomers that vary in size by one or more bases at the 3’ and/or 5’ end of the miRNA. Northern blotting for individual miRNAs showed that the proportions of isomiRs expressed by a single miRNA gene often differ between cell and tissue types. IsomiRs were readily co-immunoprecipitated with Argonaute proteins in vivo and were active in luciferase assays, indicating that they are functional. Bioinformatics analysis predicts substantial differences in targeting between miRNAs with minor 5’ differences and in support of this we report that a 5’ isomiR-9-1 gained the ability to inhibit the expression of DNMT3B and NCAM2 but lost the ability to inhibit CDH1 in vitro. This result was confirmed by the use of isomiR-specific sponges. Our analysis of the miRGator database indicates that a small percentage of human miRNA genes express isomiRs as the dominant transcript in certain cell types and analysis of miRBase shows that 5’ isomiRs have replaced canonical miRNAs many times during evolution. This strongly indicates that isomiRs are of functional importance and have contributed to the evolution of miRNA genes

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.
