Project description:We and others have shown that S100P is highly upregulated during the progression of pancreatic cancer. We used microarrays to look at the target genes regulated by S100P in the pancreatic cancer cell line Panc1. Keywords: Gene overexpression We generated stable cell lines by introducing control vector pcDNA3.1/V5-His or S100P-overexpressing vector pcDNA3.1/S100P-V5-His into the pancreatic cancer cell line Panc1, single cell clones were then isolated. RNA was extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. We looked for new target genes regulated by S100P.
Project description:Gene profiles from three dasatinib-resistant and three dasatinib-sensitive pancreatic cancer cell lines were compared by microarray analysis. RNA from three dasatinib-resistant (MiaPaCa2, Panc1, SU8686) and three dasatinib-sensitive (Panc0504, Panc0403, Panc1005) pancreatic cancer cell lines were extracted. Biological triplicates were employed for each cell line. Complementary DNA microarray analysis was performed using Illumina Human HT-12 v4 BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, CA) at the National University of Singapore Core Facility following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Project description:We have compared the genome-wide effects on the transcriptome after treatment with ICG-001 (the specific CBP inhibitor) versus C646, a compound that competes with acetyl-coA for the Lys-coA binding pocket of both CBP and p300. We found that both drugs cause large-scale changes in the transcriptome of HCT116 colon cancer cells and PANC1 pancreatic cancer cells, and reverse some tumor-specific changes in gene expression. Interestingly, although the epigenetic inhibitors affect cell cycle pathways in both the colon and pancreatic cancer cell lines, the WNT signaling pathway was affected only in the colon cancer cells. Notably, WNT target genes were similarly down-regulated after treatment of HCT116 with C646 as with ICG-001. Total RNA obtained from isolated HCT116 or PANC1 cell lines were treated with 10uM ICG-001, 10uM C646, or 0.05% DMSO and collected after 12 or 96 hours.
Project description:<p>Alkaliptosis, a pH-dependent form of regulated cell death characterized by impaired lysosomal function and lethal alkalinization, holds promise as a target for cancer therapy. Here, we utilize mass spectrometry-based drug target, transcriptomic screens and lipid metabolomics to explore the metabolic mechanisms underlying alkaliptosis. We reveal CYP51A1, a gene involved in cholesterol synthesis, as a key suppressor of alkaliptosis in pancreatic cancer cells. Inducing alkaliptosis leads to a decrease in endoplasmic reticulum cholesterol levels, subsequently activating SREBF2, a transcription factor responsible for controlling the expression of genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis. Specifically, SREBF2-driven upregulation of CYP51A1 prevents cholesterol accumulation within lysosomes, leading to TMEM175-dependent lysosomal proton efflux, ultimately resulting in the inhibition of alkaliptosis. In animal models, including xenografts, orthotopic and patient-derived models, the genetic or pharmacological inhibition of CYP51A1 enhances the effectiveness of JTC801 in suppressing pancreatic tumors. These findings demonstrate the key role of the CYP51A1-dependent lysosomal pathway in inhibiting alkaliptosis and highlight its potential as a targetable vulnerability in pancreatic cancer.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>PDAC-PANC1 cell line analysis</strong> is reported in the current study <a href='https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights/MTBLS9283' rel='noopener noreferrer' target='_blank'><strong>MTBLS9283</strong></a>.</p><p><strong>PDAC-SW1990 cell line analysis</strong> is reported in <a href='https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights/MTBLS9288' rel='noopener noreferrer' target='_blank'><strong>MTBLS9288</strong></a>.</p>
Project description:To investigate the function of DHODH in the Panc1 cells, we treated Panc1 with DMSO or DHODH inhibitor BRQ. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 6 different samples under two treatments.
