Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Although excessive exposure to UV is widely recognized as a major factor leading to skin perturbations and cancer, the complex mechanisms underlying inflammatory skin disorders resulting from UV exposure remain incompletely characterized. The nuclear hormone receptor PPAR/ is known to control cutaneous repair and UV-induced cancer development. Here, we describe a novel PPAR/-dependent molecular cascade involving TGF-1 and miR-21-3p, which is activated in the epidermis in response to UV exposure. We establish that the passenger miRNA miR-21-3p, that we identify as a novel UV-induced miRNA in the epidermis, plays a pro-inflammatory function in keratinocytes, and that its high level of expression in human skin is associated with psoriasis and squamous cell carcinomas. Finally, we provide evidence that inhibition of miR-21-3p reduces UV-induced cutaneous inflammation in ex vivo human skin biopsies, thereby underlining the clinical relevance of miRNA-based topical therapies for cutaneous disorders.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Analysis of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells depleted for High Mobility Group A1 (HMGA1) using siRNA. HMGA1 is involved in invasion and metastasis in breast cancer cells. Results identify the specific transcriptional program induced by HMGA1 in highly metastatic breast cancer cells.
Publication Title
HMGA1 promotes metastatic processes in basal-like breast cancer regulating EMT and stemness.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Malignant neoplasms adapt and evolve in response to changes in oncogenic signaling, tumor microenvironmental stresses,and therapeutic interventions. Cancer cell plasticity in response to these evolutionary pressures is foundational to tumor progression and maintenance and therapeutic resistance. Here, to elucidate the underlying molecular and cellularmechanisms of cancer cell plasticity, integrated system-level, functional and genetic analyses were conducted in a conditional oncogenic Kras model of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), amalignancy displaying remarkable phenotypic diversityand morphological heterogeneity. In this model, stochastic extinction of oncogenic Krassignaling and emergence ofKras-independent escaper populationsis associated withde-differentiation and aggressive biological behavior.Transcriptomic and functional analyses ofKras-independent escapers reveal mesenchymal reprogramming driven by aSmarcb1/Mycnetwork and independence from MAPK signaling.A somatic mosaic model of PDAC which can track evolving subpopulations shows that depletion of Smarcb1 activates theMyc network which results in an anabolic switch to increased protein metabolism and the adaptive activation of ERstress-induced survival pathways.Theelevated protein turnover made mesenchymal sub-populationshighly susceptible topharmacological and genetic perturbation of the cellular proteostatic machinery andthe IRE1-/MKK4 arm of the ER stress response pathway. Specifically, combination regimens impairing the unfolded protein responses (UPR) and the ER stress response can block the emergence of aggressive mesenchymal subpopulations in murine andpatient-derived PDACmodels. These molecular and biological insights inform a potential therapeutic strategy fortargeting aggressive mesenchymal features of PDAC.
