  4. Silencing mutated β-catenin inhibits cell proliferation and stimulates apoptosis in the adrenocortical cancer cell line H295R
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare and highly aggressive
endocrine neoplasm, with limited therapeutic options. Activating
β-catenin somatic mutations are found in ACC and have been
associated with a poor clinical outcome. In fact, activation of the
Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway seems to play a major role in ACC
aggressiveness, and might, thus, represent a promising therapeutic
target. Similar to patient tumor specimen the H295 cell line
derived from an ACC harbors a natural activating β-catenin
mutation. We herein assess the in vitro and in vivo effect of
β-catenin inactivation using a doxycyclin (dox) inducible shRNA
plasmid in H295R adrenocortical cancer cells line (clone named
shβ). Following dox treatment a profound reduction in β-catenin
expression was detectable in shβ clones in comparison to control
clones (Ctr). Accordingly, we observed a decrease in
Wnt/βcatenin-dependent luciferase reporter activity as well as a
decreased expression of AXIN2 representing an endogenous β-catenin
target gene. Concomitantly, β-catenin silencing resulted in a
decreased cell proliferation, cell cycle alterations with cell
accumulation in the G1 phase and increased apoptosis in vitro. In
vivo, on established tumor xenografts in athymic nude mice, 9 days
of β-catenin silencing resulted in a significant reduction of
CTNNB1 and AXIN2 expression. Moreover, continous β-catenin
silencing, starting 3 days after tumor cell inoculation, was
associated with a complete absence of tumor growth in the shβ group
while tumors were present in all animals of the control group. In
summary, these experiments provide evidences that Wnt/β-catenin
pathway inhibition in ACC is a promising therapeutic target.

Podcast-Folgen verschwinden. Feeds werden auf die letzten Episoden gekürzt, Hoster räumen alte Dateien ab, Formate wechseln den Anbieter und lassen ihr Archiv zurück. Mit „Mein Archiv“ sichert podcast.de die Folgen deiner Podcasts für dich — angefangen bei den ältesten, denn die sind zuerst weg.

  • Deine gesicherten Folgen bleiben hörbar, auch wenn das Original offline geht.
  • Auch Folgen, die im heutigen Feed gar nicht mehr stehen — podcast.de kennt sie noch.
  • Herunterladen bleibt möglich, solange die Folge beim Podcaster liegt. Der zählt seine Abrufe wie bisher.
