Response and resistance to NF-κB inhibitors in mouse models of lung adenocarcinoma

Lung adenocarcinoma is a frequently diagnosed cancer type and a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. We recently demonstrated in an autochthonous mouse model of this disease that genetic inhibition of the NF-κB pathway affects both the initiation and m ...

Imaging guided trials of the angiogenesis inhibitor sunitinib in mouse models predict efficacy in pancreatic neuroendocrine but not ductal carcinoma

Douglas Hanahan

Preclinical trials in mice represent a critical step in the evaluation of experimental therapeutics. Genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) represent a promising platform for the evaluation of drugs, particularly those targeting the tumor microenviron ...

Highly Cytotoxic Copper(II) Complexes with Modified Paullone Ligands

Paul Joseph Dyson, Olivier Pierre Zava

The reaction of copper(II) chloride or copper(II) acetate with 6-N-(2-N',N'-dimethylaminoethylamino)-7,12-dihydroindolo-[3,2-d][1]benzazepine (HL1), 9-bromo-6-N-(2-N',N'-dimethylaminoethylamino)-7,12-dihydroindolo[3,2-d][1]benzazepine (HL2), N-9-bromo-7,12 ...

Polymorphic genetic control of tumor invasion in a mouse model of pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinogenesis

Douglas Hanahan

Cancer is a disease subject to both genetic and environmental influences. In this study, we used the RIP1-Tag2 (RT2) mouse model of islet cell carcinogenesis to identify a genetic locus that influences tumor progression to an invasive growth state. RT2 mic ...

Notch2 is required for progression of pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia and development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Freddy Radtke

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most fatal malignancies lacking effective therapies. Notch signaling is a key regulator of cell fate specification and pancreatic cancer development; however, the role of individual Notch receptors and downstream signaling i ...

Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition-Derived Cells Exhibit Multi-Lineage Differentiation Potential Similar to Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Cathrin Brisken, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan

The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an embryonic process that becomes latent in most normal adult tissues. Recently, we have shown that induction of EMT endows breast epithelial cells with stem cell traits. In this report, we have further cha ...

Requirement for NF-kappaB signalling in a mouse model of lung adenocarcinoma

Etienne Meylan

NF-kappaB transcription factors function as crucial regulators of inflammatory and immune responses as well as of cell survival. They have also been implicated in cellular transformation and tumorigenesis. However, despite extensive biochemical characteriz ...

In Vivo extended focus Optical Coherence Microscopy of endocrine islets of Langerhans in mice

Theo Lasser, Michael Friedrich, Rainer Leitgeb, Anne Grapin-Botton, Martin Villiger, Joan Goulley

Rapid acquisition of volumetric data is a mandatory prerequisite for small animal in vivo imaging. Due to its high sensitivity and capacity to extract the sample depth profile in parallel Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (FDOCT) complies with th ...

Differential regulation of Dlg1, Scrib, and Lgl1 expression in a transgenic mouse model of ocular cancer

Friedrich Beermann

Purpose: Discs large (dlg), scribble (scrib), and lethal giant larvae (lgl) are major suppressor genes in Drosophila melanogaster. They encode proteins that regulate cell polarity and cell proliferation in Drosophila and mammals. However, their basic oncog ...

Tuning the hydrophobicity of ruthenium(II)-arene (RAPTA) drugs to modify uptake, biomolecular interactions and efficacy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Christian Hartinger, Claudine Scolaro, Gianni Sava

The antitumor activity of the organometallic ruthenium(II)-arene mixed phosphine complexes, [Ru(h6-p-cymene)Cl(PTA)(PPh3)]BF4 1b and [Ru(h6-C6H5CH2CH2OH)Cl(PTA)(PPh3)]BF4 2b (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), have been evaluated in vitro and compare ...
