Little is known about genes that promote melanoma cell growth and proliferation. siRNAs may be used to address the role of individual genesin these processes. RNAi library screens were used in the past to gain a comprehensive overview of all genes involved in cell growth, proliferation, migration an...

We have previously shown that some gefitinib insensitive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines exhibit dominant autocrine fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling. Herein, we deployed a whole genome loss-of-function screen to identify genes whose knockdown potentiated th...

A375 and HT1080 cells are treated with G-quadruplex ligands PDS or PhenDC3 following genome-wide shRNA knockdown. This enables the identification of genes that when silenced, specifically compromises cell growth in the presence of the ligand. First, a pilot screen was performed to determine a ligand...

ShRNA screen identifies novel mediator of PDAC metastasis in vivo
We used a mouse model of human AML induced by the MLL-AF9 fusion oncogene, and an epigenetic shRNA library to screen for novel potential drug targets. One of the best candidate drug targets identified in these screens was Jmjd1c. Depletion of Jmjd1c impairs growth and colony formation of mouse MLL-A...

Dynamic acetylation of metabolic proteins has emerged as a ubiquitous post-translational modification of human metabolic proteins. However, the corresponding modifying enzymes and the functions of the modification await exploration. Using a genome-wide synthetic lethality screen, we constructed a ge...

Kinome-wide shRNA screen to identify kinases differentially required for survival of cells disomic and trisomic for chromosome 21 Cells were transduced in triplicate and propagated for 14 days to allow for enrichement or depletion of shRNAs from the population

The hallmark of human cancer is heterogeneity, mirroring the complexity of genetic and epigenetic alterations acquired during oncogenesis. We extracted DNA of 14 cultured human ovarian carcinoma cell lines subjected to pooled shRNA screen using TRC 1.0 library, and performed DNAseq. 14 ovarian carc...

A subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), termed activated B-cell-like (ABC) DLBCL, depends on constitutive NF-kB pathway signaling for survival. Small molecule inhibitors of IkB kinase b (IKKb), a key regulator of the NF-kB pathway, kill ABC DLBCL cells and hold promise for the treatment ...
