Antibody-mediated delivery of anti-KRAS-siRNA in vivo overcomes therapy resistance in colon cancer.
Conclusions:The coupling of siRNA against KRAS to anti-EGFR antibodies provides a novel therapy approach for KRAS-mutated EGFR-positive cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. These findings provide an innovative approach for cancer specific siRNA application and for enhanced therapeutic potential of monoclonal antibody therapy and personalized treatment of cancer entities.

Precision delivery of RAS-inhibiting siRNA to KRAS driven cancer via peptide-based nanoparticles.
Authors: Strand MS, Krasnick BA, Pan H, Zhang X, Bi Y, Brooks C, Wetzel C, Sankpal N, Fleming T, Goedegebuure SP, DeNardo DG, Gillanders WE, Hawkins WG, Wickline SA, Fields RC Abstract Over 95% of pancreatic adenocarcinomas (PDACs), as well as a large fraction of other tumor types, such as colorectal adenocarcinoma, are driven by KRAS activation. However, no direct RAS inhibitors exist for cancer therapy. Furthermore, the delivery of therapeutic agents of any kind to PDAC in particular has been hindered by the extensive desmoplasia and resultant drug delivery challenges that accompanies these tumors. Small interfer...

Abstract 3903: A sub-set of DCLK1+ve colon cancer stem cells (CSCs) survive curcumin induced autophagy, while co-treatment with curcumin +DCLK1-siRNA eliminates CSCs: Role of long and short isofoms of DCLK1
Conclusion. Our studies strongly suggest that, 1) DCLK1 represents a functional protein for colon cancers, 2) combination of curcumin+DCLK1-siRNA may target and eradicate colon cancer stem cells., and 3) identifying small molecules that inhibit expression of S-isoform may allow to specifically target cancer stem cells, while sparing normal stem cells for cancer treatment purposes.

siRNA-induced TRAF6 knockdown promotes the apoptosis and inhibits the invasion of human lung cancer SPC-A1 cells.
Authors: He Z, Huang C, Lin G, Ye Y Abstract Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) has been found to be involved in multiple cancers. However, the effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA)‑induced knockdown of TRAF6 on the biological behaviors of cancer cells remains unknown. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of siRNA-induced knockdown of TRAF6 on the biological behaviors of human lung cancer SPC-A1 cells. The expression of TRAF6 was determined in human lung adenocarcinoma A549, non-small cell lung cancer H1650, human airway epithelial Calu-3 and human lung cancer SPC-A1 ...

This study verifies the successful spray drying procedure of LNP-siRNA systems maintaining their integrity and mediating strong gene silencing efficiency on mRNA and protein levels both in vitro and ex vivo. The successful spray drying procedure of LNP-siRNA formulations in 5% lactose solution creates a novel siRNA-based therapy option to target respiratory diseases such as lung cancer, asthma, COPD, cystic fibrosis and viral infections.PMID:36126785 | DOI:10.1016/j.jconrel.2022.09.021

Abstract 768: A kinome-wide siRNA screen identifies modifiers of sensitivity to the EGFR T790M-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), AZD9291, in EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma
In conclusion, through a kinome wide siRNA screen, we identified that gene products in the MAP kinase signaling pathway modify sensitivity to AZD9291. Such sensitivity may be associated with ERK re-phosphorylation within 96h of drug treatment. Collectively, these data suggest rational drug combinations that could be used to forestall resistance to AZD9291. Additional hits from the screen are currently under investigation.This study is supported by AstraZeneca Oncology Innovative Medicines, National Institutes of Health (NIH) NCI grants R01-CA121210, P01-CA129243, U54-CA143798, and the Uehara Memorial Foundation.Citation Fo...

Abstract A30: A genome-wide siRNA screen in mammalian cells for regulators of S6 phosphorylation
To identify the cellular components that participate in the regulation of mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1), the amino acid-dependent, rapamycin-inhibitable complex, we carried out a genome-wide RNAi depletion screen. We employed a rabbit monoclonal antibody specific for RPS6 [Ser235P/Ser236P] and high content microscopy to quantify rpS6 phosphorylation in the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cancer cell line (PDAC) MiaPaCa-2. Applying a stringent selection, we retrieved over 600 genes wherein at least two RNAi gave significant reduction in S6 phosphorylation. This cohort is significantly enriched in genes whose depletion affects th...

Silencing Aurora-A with siRNA inhibits cell proliferation in human lung adenocarcinoma cells.
In this study, we investigated the expression of AURKA in lung adenocarcinoma tissues, the role of small interference RNA targeting AURKA on growth, cell cycle, and apoptosis of lung adenocarcinoma cell lines in vitro. The AURKA is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines. Lentivirus-mediated short hairpin RNA (shRNA) was used to knock down AURKA expression in human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines H1299 and A549. The results indicated that depletion of AURKA could inhibit cell growth, cause cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The potential mechanisms of AURKA inhibition induced ...

siRNA-mediated knockdown of ID1 disrupts Nanog- and Oct-4-mediated cancer stem cell-likeness and resistance to chemotherapy in gastric cancer cells.
In conclusion, knockdown of ID1 attenuates the stem cell like-properties of self-renewal in normal GC cells, potentially through the targeting of Nanog and Oct-4, and subsequently decreases cell proliferation and resistance to DDP. The results of the present study suggest that ID1 functions as an oncogene in GC and regulates the stem cell like-properties of gastric cancer cells by targeting Nanog and Oct-4.

Nanoparticles of VAV1 siRNA combined with LL37 peptide for the treatment of pancreatic cancer
J Control Release. 2023 Feb 1:S0168-3659(23)00093-7. doi: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2023.01.084. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is among the leading causes of cancer-related death, and it is highly resistant to therapy owing to its unique extracellular matrix. VAV1 protein, overexpressed in several cancer diseases including pancreatic cancer (PC), increases tumor proliferation and enhances metastases formation, which are associated with decreased survival. We hypothesized that an additive anti-tumor effect could be obtained by co-encapsulating in PLGA nanoparticles (NPs), the negatively charg...

Inhibition of SMYD2 Sensitized Cisplatin to Resistant Cells in NSCLC Through Activating p53 Pathway
In conclusion, the present study elucidated that the activity of SMYD2 in NSCLC may affect the cell sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents, especially to CDDP. The elevated SMYD2 mediated CDDP resistance and malignant phenotype in NSCLC, indicating that SMYD2 may be a useful biomarker of CDDP resistance in NSCLC. Inhibition of SMYD2 contributes to the methylation-related activation of p53 and thus results in cell apoptosis. Furthermore, combination treatment with CDDP and an SMYD2 inhibitor had a synergistically antitumor effects in a xenograft model in vivo. Given that SMYD2 has reversible effects and is a targetable prot...
