Cell Cycle Phase Distribution

We have determined the effects of the IGF-1R tyrosine kinase inhibitors BMS-754807 (BMS) and OSI-906 (OSI) on cell proliferation and cell-cycle phase distribution in human colon, pancreatic carcinoma, and glioblastoma cell lines and primary cultures. IGF-1R signaling was blocked by BMS and OSI at equivalent doses, although both inhibitors exhibited differential antiproliferative effects. In all pancreatic carcinoma cell lines tested, BMS exerted a strong antiproliferative effect, whereas OSI had a minimal effect. Similar results were obtained on glioblastoma primary cultures, where HGUE-GB-15, -16 and -17 displayed resistance to OSI effects, whereas they were inhibited in their proliferation by BMS. Differential effects of BMS and OSI were also observed in colon carcinoma cell lines. Both inhibitors also showed different effects on cell cycle phase distribution, BMS induced G2/M arrest followed by cell death, while OSI induced G1 arrest with no cell death. Both inhibitors also showed different effects on other protein kinases activities. Taken together, our results are indicative that BMS mainly acts through off-target effects exerted on other protein kinases. Given that BMS exhibits a potent antiproliferative effect, we believe that this compound could be useful for the treatment of different types of tumors independently of their IGF-1R activation status.

Regulation Of Cell Cycle

AbstractLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the regulation of cell cycle, although only a few have been functionally characterized. By combining RNA sequencing and ChIP sequencing of cell cycle synchronized HaCaT cells we have previously identified lncRNAs highly enriched for cell cycle functions. Based on a cyclic expression profile and an overall high correlation to histone 3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) and RNA polymerase II (Pol II) signals, the lncRNA SNHG26 was identified as a top candidate. In the present study we report that downregulation of SNHG26 affects mitochondrial stress, proliferation, cell cycle phase distribution, and gene expression in cis- and in trans, and that this effect is reversed by upregulation of SNHG26. We also find that the effect on cell cycle phase distribution is cell type specific and stable over time. Results indicate an oncogenic role of SNHG26, possibly by affecting cell cycle progression through the regulation of downstream MYC-responsive genes.
