چکیده

Pancreatic cancers relapse due to small but distinct population of cancer stem cells (CSCs) which are in turn regulated by miRNAs. The present study identifies a series of miRNAs which were either upregulated (e.g. miR-146) or downregulated (e.g. miRNA-205, miRNA-7) in gemcitabine resistant MIA PaCa-2 cancer cells and clinical metastatic pancreatic cancer tissues. Gemcitabine resistant MIA PaCa-2 cells possessed distinct ALDH-positive CSC fraction expressing stem cell markers OCT3/4 and CD44 and chemoresistance marker class IIIβ-tubulin (TUBB3) which decreases on transfection with miR-205 resulting in the restoration of chemosensitivity to gemcitabine.

Wild Type p53 Gene Transfer Increases Chemosensitivity and Apoptotic Response of PANC-1 Pancreatic Tumor Cell Line

The effect of p53 gene therapy on chemosensitivity and apoptotic response of PANC-1 tumor cells, which express high amount of mutant p53, to cancer chemotherapeutic agents of Etoposide and Doxorubicin was investigated. Comparison of the chemosensitivity of PANC-1 cells to its wild type p53 transfectants showed that wt-p53 expressing transfectants are more sensitive to both Etoposide and Doxorub...

Identification of miRNA-mRNA crosstalk in pancreatic cancer by integrating transcriptome analysis.

OBJECTIVE Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal diseases, and the pathogenesis remains largely unknown. To this end, we performed an integrated analysis of miRNA and mRNA expression data to explore the deregulation of miRNA and mRNA and regulatory processes underlying pancreatic cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We combined mRNA and miRNA expression data with miRNA target predictions to inf...

CRISPR/Cas9, a new approach to successful knockdown of ABCB1/P-glycoprotein and reversal of chemosensitivity in human epithelial ovarian cancer cell line

Objective(s): Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle in the successful chemotherapy of ovarian cancer. Inhibition of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a member of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, is a well-known strategy to overcome MDR in cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency and ability of CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technology to knockdown ABCB1 gene expression ...

Oridonin alters the expression profiles of MicroRNAs in BxPC-3 human pancreatic cancer cells

BACKGROUND Oridonin, an ingredient used in traditional Chinese medicine, has been demonstrated to play an important role in antitumour effects, but the mechanism underlying its antitumour properties is still not clear. METHODS To verify the anti-cancer effects of oridonin via a miRNA-dependent mechanism, comprehensive miRNA expression profiling of oridonin-treated BxPC-3 human pancreatic canc...
