Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Most tumors are epithelial-derived, and although disruption of polarity and aberrant cellular junction formation is a poor prognosticator in human cancer, the role of polarity determinants in oncogenesis is poorly understood. Using in vivo selection, we identified a mammalian orthologue of the Drosophila polarity regulator crumbs as a gene whose loss of expression promotes tumor progression. Immortal baby mouse kidney epithelial (iBMK) cells selected in vivo to acquire tumorigenicity displayed dramatic repression of crumbs3 (crb3) expression associated with disruption of tight junction formation, apicobasal polarity, and contact-inhibited growth. Restoration of crb3 expression restored junctions, polarity and contact inhibition, while suppressing migration and metastasis. These findings suggest a role for mammalian polarity determinants in suppressing tumorigenesis that may be analogous to the well-studied polarity tumor suppressor mechanisms in Drosophila.

Description
Autophagy is a starvation response that facilitates cell survival under metabolic stress and yet defects in autophagy promote tumorigenesis. While the role of understarvation is relatively clearer, its mechanistic role in tumorigenesis is poorly understood. We show that defective autophagy promotes protein damage and accumulation of p62, a marker for protein damage accumulation that is cleared through autophagy pathway. The failure to eliminate p62 in autophagy-defective cells, leads to deregulation of cell signalling and gene expression and ultimately promotes tumorigenesis. Thus defective-autophagy is a mechanism for p62 accumulation commonly observed in human tumors.

Description
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) plays an essential role in regulating calcium and bone homeostasis in the adult, but whether PTH is required at all for regulating fetal-placental mineral homeostasis is uncertain. To address this we treated Pth-null mice in utero with 1 nmol PTH (1-84) or saline and examined placental calcium transfer 90 minutes later. It was found that placental calcium transfer increased in Pth-null fetuses treated with PTH as compared to Pth-null fetuses treated with saline. Subsequently, to determine the effect of PTH treatment on placental gene expression, in a separate experiment, 90 minutes after the fetal injections the placentas were removed for subsequent RNA extraction and microarray analysis.

Description
Analysis of AR-regulation of gene expression. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that AR influences the expression of genes that participate in important bioprocesses in prostate cancer cells, including cell cycle, DNA replication, recombination and repair. Results provide important information on AR-responsive genes that may be crucial to the cell survival and the progression of prostate cancer.
