Project description:Analysis of Kras-driven lung adenocarcinoma of mice intranasally treated with 2.37 mg/kg Omomyc or vehicle (10 mM sodium acetate pH 6.5) for three days. KRasLSL-G12D/+ mice were treated with Omomyc by intranasal administration sixteen weeks after Adeno-Cre infection. Mice (n=2 for vehicle treated and n=3 for Omomyc treated group) were euthanized three days post-treatment and lung tumors were excised and frozen at -80ºC until processing.
Project description:Skin melanomas are highly aggressive and metastatic. Omomyc is the best MYC inhibitor currently available. We analysed the effect of Omomyc expression in a transgenic and inducible (upon Doxycycline addition) manner in melanoma cells in vivo in two different melanoma cell lines: A375 (mutated in BRAF), SkMel147 (mutated in NRAS). We used microarrays to detail the change in the gene expression programs induced by Omomyc on day 7.
