  • Deciphering the Functions of Ets2, Pten and P53 in Stromal Fibroblasts in Multiple
    Deciphering the Functions of Ets2, Pten and p53 in Stromal Fibroblasts in Multiple Breast Cancer Models DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Julie Wallace Graduate Program in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Michael C. Ostrowski, PhD, Advisor Gustavo Leone, PhD Denis Guttridge, PhD Dawn Chandler, PhD Copyright by Julie Wallace 2013 Abstract Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in American women, and is also the second leading cause of cancer death in women. It is estimated that nearly a quarter of a million new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in women in the United States this year, and approximately 40,000 of these women will die from breast cancer. Although death rates have been on the decline for the past decade, there is still much we need to learn about this disease to improve prevention, detection and treatment strategies. The majority of early studies have focused on the malignant tumor cells themselves, and much has been learned concerning mutations, amplifications and other genetic and epigenetic alterations of these cells. However more recent work has acknowledged the strong influence of tumor stroma on the initiation, progression and recurrence of cancer. Under normal conditions this stroma has been shown to have protective effects against tumorigenesis, however the transformation of tumor cells manipulates this surrounding environment to actually promote malignancy. Fibroblasts in particular make up a significant portion of this stroma, and have been shown to impact various aspects of tumor cell biology.

  • Targeting and Reprograming Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts and the Tumor Microenvironment in Pancreatic Cancer
    cancers Review Targeting and Reprograming Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts and the Tumor Microenvironment in Pancreatic Cancer Yoshiaki Sunami * , Viktoria Böker and Jörg Kleeff Department of Visceral, Vascular and Endocrine Surgery, Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg, University Medical Center Halle, 06120 Halle, Germany; [email protected] (V.B.); [email protected] (J.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-345-557-2794 Simple Summary: The tumor microenvironment plays a major role in the progression and drug resistance of pancreatic cancer. Cancer-associated fibroblasts are the major stromal cells and source of extracellular matrix proteins forming the dense stromal tumor microenvironment. Targeting cancer-associated fibroblasts has been deemed a promising therapeutic strategy. However, deplet- ing cancer-associated fibroblasts may also have tumor-promoting effects due to their functional heterogeneity. It is therefore important to target selectively the tumor-promoting subtype of cancer- associated fibroblasts. Furthermore, deactivating fibroblasts, or reprograming tumor-promoting cancer-associated fibroblasts to tumor-restraining cancer-associated fibroblasts are considered as therapy for pancreatic cancer. Abstract: Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States both in female and male, and is projected to become the second deadliest cancer by 2030. The overall five-year survival rate remains at around 10%. Pancreatic cancer exhibits a remarkable resistance to established therapeutic options such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy, due to dense stromal Citation: Sunami, Y.; Böker, V.; tumor microenvironment.

  • Current Understanding of Epigenetics Mechanism As a Novel Target In
    Keyvani‑Ghamsari et al. Clin Epigenet (2021) 13:120 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13148‑021‑01107‑4 REVIEW Open Access Current understanding of epigenetics mechanism as a novel target in reducing cancer stem cells resistance Saeedeh Keyvani‑Ghamsari1, Khatereh Khorsandi2* , Azhar Rasul3 and Muhammad Khatir Zaman4 Abstract At present, after extensive studies in the feld of cancer, cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been proposed as a major fac‑ tor in tumor initiation, progression, metastasis, and recurrence. CSCs are a subpopulation of bulk tumors, with stem cell‑like properties and tumorigenic capabilities, having the abilities of self‑renewal and diferentiation, thereby being able to generate heterogeneous lineages of cancer cells and lead to resistance toward anti‑tumor treatments. Highly resistant to conventional chemo‑ and radiotherapy, CSCs have heterogeneity and can migrate to diferent organs and metastasize. Recent studies have demonstrated that the population of CSCs and the progression of cancer are increased by the deregulation of diferent epigenetic pathways having efects on gene expression patterns and key pathways connected with cell proliferation and survival. Further, epigenetic modifcations (DNA methylation, histone modifcations, and RNA methylations) have been revealed to be key drivers in the formation and maintenance of CSCs. Hence, identifying CSCs and targeting epigenetic pathways therein can ofer new insights into the treatment of cancer. In the present review, recent studies are addressed in terms of the characteristics of CSCs, the resistance thereof, and the factors infuencing the development thereof, with an emphasis on diferent types of epigenetic changes in genes and main signaling pathways involved therein. Finally, targeted therapy for CSCs by epigenetic drugs is referred to, which is a new approach in overcoming resistance and recurrence of cancer.

Received November 2, 2015; accepted December 29, 2015 ABSTRACT molpharm.aspetjournals.org Despite some blockbuster G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) and butyrate, ligands that originate largely as fermentation by- drugs, only a small fraction (∼15%) of the more than 390 products of anaerobic bacteria in the gut. However, the presence nonodorant GPCRs have been successfully targeted by the of FFA2 and FFA3 on pancreatic b-cells, FFA3 on neurons, and pharmaceutical industry. One way that this issue might be FFA2 on leukocytes and adipocytes means that the biologic role of addressed is via translation of recent deorphanization programs these receptors likely extends beyond the widely accepted role of that have opened the prospect of extending the reach of new regulating peptide hormone release from enteroendocrine cells in medicine design to novel receptor types with potential therapeutic the gut. Here, we review the physiologic roles of FFA2 and FFA3, value. Prominent among these receptors are those that respond to the recent development and use of receptor-selective pharmaco- short-chain free fatty acids of carbon chain length 2–6.

    Supplementary Information Supplementary Table 1. List of polypeptide cell surface receptor and their cognate ligand genes. Supplementary Table 2. List of coding SNPs with high FST ( > 0.5) in human GPCR and their cognate ligand genes. Supplementary Table 3. List of coding SNPs with high FST ( > 0.5) in human nonGPCR receptor and ligand genes. Supplementary Table 4. List of genotyped SNPs from 44246961 to 44542055 on chromosome 17. The HapMap II dataset was analyzed using HaploView. The 101 SNPs included in LD plots of Supplementary Fig. 3 (A-C) are highlighted by a grey background. The 37 SNPs used in the haplotype analysis of Fig. 2C are indicated by red letters. SNPs that are linked with rs2291725 are indicated by bold red letters. Supplementary Table 5. Allele frequency of rs2291725 in the HGDP-CEPH populations. Frequencies of GIP103T and GIP103C alleles in each of the 52 populations from the seven geographical regions and the number of chromosomes analyzed for each population. 1 Supplementary Table 6. EC50 values for GIP receptor activation at four different time points after incubation with pooled human serum or pooled complement-preserved human serum (N=4). Supplementary Table 7. EC50 values for GIP receptor activation at three different time points after incubation with a recombinant DPP IV enzyme (N=4). Supplementary Fig. 1. Cumulative distribution function (CDF) plots for the FST of coding SNPs in human GPCRs and their cognate ligand genes (blue) and all other human genes (magenta). The FST was computed between three HapMap II populations (CEU, YRI, and ASN), and coding SNPs have been split into synonymous and nonsynonymous groups.
