Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are electrical pacemakers and mediators of neuromuscular neurotransmission in the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) arise within the ICC lineage due to activating KIT/PDGFRA mutations. In this study we developed a method for isolation of human ICC by immunolabeling and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). Briefly, human gastric musculature was dissociated and incubated with antibodies against CD45, FCER1A, CD11B, KIT, and CD34. ICC (defined as HP-KIT+CD34- cells), NOT ICC (defined as HP-KIT-CD34- cells), and hematopoietic (HP) cells (defined as HP+ cells) were isolated using FACS. Microarray was performed on ICC, NOT ICC, HP+ cells, and unfractionated gastric tunica muscularis. This study utilized micorarray for the phenotypic characterization of FACS-sorted human ICC, allowing comparison of ICC to other cells of the gastric musculature, including GIST.

Description
Pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) is a premalignant lesion that can progress to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, a highly lethal malignancy marked by its late stage at clinical presentationand profound drug resistance. Here we developed novel fluorescent reporter mice that show that the stem cell determinant, Musashi (Msi) is a critical element of pancreatic cancer progression.

Description
Deregulated RTK activity has been implicated as a causal leukemogenic factor in the context of molecular aberrations that perturb differentiation in the hematopoietic lineage such as in childhood ALL. A deeper understanding of RTK signaling processes on a system-wide scale will be key in defining critical components of signaling networks. To link RTK activity with in vivo output in primary ALL we took a functional approach, which combined SH2 domain binding, mass spectrometry, and transcriptome analyses. Structure and composition of evolving networks were highly diverse with few generic features determined by receptor and cell type. A combinatorial assembly of varying context-dependent and few generic signaling components at multiple levels likely generates output specificity. PAK2 was identified as a phosphoregulated FLT3 target, whose allosteric inhibition resulted in apoptosis of ALL cells. Our studies provide evidence that a functional approach to leukemia signaling may yield valuable information for a network-directed intervention.

Description
Cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are hyperactivated in nearly all human tumor types. To identify new approaches for interfering with cyclins/CDKs, we systematically searched for microRNAs (miRNAs) regulating these proteins. We uncovered a group of miRNAs that target nearly all cyclins and CDKs, and demonstrated that these miRNAs are very effective in shutting off cancer cell expansion. By profiling the response of over 120 human cancer cell lines representing 12 tumor types to these cell-cycle-targeting miRNAs, we identified miRNAs particularly effective against triple-negative breast cancers and KRAS-mutated cancers. We also derived expression-based algorithm that predicts response of primary tumors to cell-cycle-targeting miRNAs. Using systemic administration of nanoparticle-formulated miRNAs, we halted tumor progression in seven mouse xenograft models, including three highly aggressive and treatment-refractory patient-derived tumors, without affecting normal tissues. Our results highlight the utility of using cell-cycle-targeting miRNAs for treatment of refractory cancer types. Overall design: RNA-seq for SW900 cells transfected with 25 nM of miR-193a-3p mimic or 25 nM of negative miRNA control (Negative control #2, Ambion).
