The zebrafish model organism has been used extensively for studies of genetic pathways in development, indicating its potential applicability to cancer. Here we show that targeted expression of MYCN in cells of the pancreatic islet induces neuroendocrine carcinoma. Four transgenic fish developed abdominal tumors between 4 and 6 months of age, and histologic analysis revealed lobulated arrangeme...
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood. This tumor is characterized by poor survival, especially when it features amplification of the MYCN oncogene. The ability for human cancers to propagate is marked by their ability to invade and metastasize to distant sites. Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a key tyrosine kinase involved in the survival and metastasis of a num...
BACKGROUND AND PROCEDURE MRP1 expression by neuroblastomas was evaluated by Northern blot analysis in 21 cell lines and 90 primary untreated tumors. Cytotoxicity assay in cell lines was performed for five anticancer drugs used in treating neuroblastoma. RESULTS MRP1 expression did not correlate with drug resistance or with MYCN RNA expression in cell lines. MRP1 expression was higher in drug-...
Tumor stage, age of patient, and amplification of MYCN predict disease outcome in neuroblastoma. To gain insight into the underlying molecular pathways, we have obtained expression profiles from 94 primary neuroblastoma specimens. Advanced tumor stages show a characteristic expression profile that includes downregulation of multiple genes involved in signal transduction through Fyn and the acti...
Midkine is a heparin-binding growth factor highly expressed in various cancers, including neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial pediatric solid tumor. Prognosis of patients with neuroblastoma in which MYCN is amplified remains particularly poor. In this study, we used a MYCN transgenic model for neuroblastoma in which midkine is highly expressed in precancerous lesions of sympathetic gang...
We report a 26-month-old girl with profound hearing impairment, microcephaly, psychomotor retardation, short palpebral fissures, hypertelorism, epicanthic folds, a broad nasal bridge, anteverted nostrils, large low-set ears, micrognathia, brachymesophalangy of the second and the fifth fingers, clinodactyly of bilateral fifth fingers and a wide interdigital space between the first and the second...
BET family proteins are epigenetic regulators known to control expression of genes involved in cell growth and oncogenesis. Selective inhibitors of BET proteins exhibit potent anti-proliferative activity in a number of hematologic cancer models, in part through suppression of the MYC oncogene and downstream Myc-driven pathways. However, little is currently known about the activity of BET inhibi...
Molecular subtypes of serous ovarian cancer have been recently described. Using data from independent datasets including over 900 primary tumour samples, we show that deregulation of the Let-7 pathway is specifically associated with the C5 molecular subtype of serous ovarian cancer. DNA copy number and gene expression of HMGA2, alleles of Let-7, LIN28, LIN28B, MYC, MYCN, DICER1, and RNASEN were...
OSU-03012, a 3-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1) inhibitor, destabilizes MYCN and MYC proteins in neuroblastoma cells. However, AKT phosphorylation is barely detectable in neuroblastoma cells under normal culture conditions whether treated with OSU-03012 or not. This observation suggests that PDK1 is not the main target of OSU-03012 to destabilize MYC and MYCN in neuroblastoma cells. I...
