Therefore, identification of novel mechanism-based approaches are needed for PCa management. Earlier, we demonstrated that a combination of the grape antioxidants resveratrol and quercetin impart superior anti-proliferative responses in multiple human PCa cell lines, as well as a significant anti-tumor response in transgenic adenocarcinoma of the mouse prostate (TRAMP) (Cancer Res 75(15 Suppl):2801). The rationale of the study was based on the fact that i) both resveratrol and quercetin are naturally present in several plants ii) quercetin improves bioavailability of resveratrol by inhibiting its sulfation, and iii) separately, both agents have shown potential for management of PCa in previously published studies. This study extended our previous work and determined the mechanisms of chemopreventive effects of resveratrol-quercetin combination employing a mouse PCa RT² Profiler PCR array that profiles 84 key PCa-related genes. For this, we employed tumor tissues generated in a chemoprevention protocol where TRAMP mice were given AIN76A diet supplemented with resveratrol (600 mg/kg), quercetin (60 mg/kg), or a combination of both. PCR array analysis found significant modulation (≥2-fold) in 14, 15, and 10 genes in the quercetin, resveratrol, and combination groups, respectively. To explore the involved gene networks using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), we selected total 22 genes with ≥2-fold change in any one group and ≥1.5-fold change in other group(s). IPA analysis identified that resveratrol-quercetin modulated genes supported the cumulative actions of increased apoptosis, as well as inhibition of cell viability/proliferation, hyperplasia, vasculogenesis, and angiogenesis. Further, IPA predicted inhibition of major PCa promoting upstream signaling molecules viz. Pi3k, Vegf, Csf2, Ca2+, and Pth. This PCR array also identified decreased levels of Igf1, Egfr, Egr3, and Il6, which are known to support PCa progression, as well as found increased levels of Nkx3-1, which is a tumor suppressor in PCa. Furthermore, IPA exploration identified a gene network where decreased Igf1 emerged as a central regulatory player, interacting with most of the resveratrol-quercetin modulated genes. Additionally, employing IHC, immunoblot, and RT-qPCR analyses, we found marked decrease in the levels of cell proliferation markers Ki67 and PCNA, oxidative stress biomarker 4-HNE, EMT marker vimentin, and prosurvival marker Bcl2. These results suggest that this natural combination of grape polyphenols may be useful as a chemopreventive regimen for PCa. Further detailed studies including clinical trials are needed to determine the translational significance of our findings. Citation Format: Chandra K. Singh, Mary A.

FASN has been considered as a potential drug target for several decades now. Many publications provide evidence of the elevated FASN with aggressive tumors, but still, there are very few inhibitors of FASN that have successfully been utilized as therapeutics in the clinical arena. An accurate measurement of FASN in association with tumor-specific markers in solid tumors and serum may help to propel forward the therapeutic significance of FASN inhibitors. With this objective in mind, we are currently working on the development of a multiplex assay for detection and quantitation of FASN and Cripto-1 in serum samples. We have optimized a magnetic fluorescent bead based multiplex sandwich immunoassay for detection and quantitation of FASN and Cripto-1 (CR-1) in human serum and plasma samples. We selected Cripto-1 to pair with FASN because it is an EGF-like domain carrying growth factor associated with a number of different types of human carcinomas. We use two different monoclonal antibodies for FASN and one for CR-1 as capture antibodies covalently coupled to magnetic fluorescent beads and a mixture of two biotin-labeled detection antibodies in this assay. The streptavidin-phycoerythrin (SAPE) conjugate is used to report the positive capture of a target in this assay. We have also included various internal controls in this assay to monitor the assay performance and assure quality of the reagents used in each well. The dynamic range of this assay was determined to be 100pg/mL to 100 ng/mL using recombinant FASN and Cripto-1 from commercial sources. The R2 values were 0.98 and above for each of the analytes and recovery of each standard were between 90 % and 125%. We spiked recombinant FASN and Cripto-1 in normal human serum and plasma at different concentrations and spike recovery was between 70 % and 130 %. We further evaluated this assay with some commercially obtained clinical samples. This presentation includes detailed results of this study. Citation Format: Neeraja Venkateswaran, William M. Nelson.

BRD4 inhibitors have been shown to have antitumor efficacy in multiple cancer models. Additional studies demonstrate the involvement of BRD4 in onsetting inflammation which is a key component of the pathogenesis of cancers including in the development of tumor growth conducive microenvironment. Here we show that a recently developed non-hyperlipidemic retinoid X receptors (RXR) agonist 9cUAB30 besides its anticancer properties also reduces UVB-induced inflammation in a murine model. The molecular mechanism underlying anti-inflammatory effect of 9cUAB30 is complex that involves epigenetic modulation of histones. Orally administered 9cUAB30 reduces BRD4 expression and its downstream signaling. 9cUAB30 mediated inhibition of BRD4 is also evidenced by the downregulation of acetylated histones such as H3K27ac, H3K18ac, H3K9ac, H4K8ac and H4K5ac. This is further confirmed by RNAseq data that show UVB-mediated alterations in multiple BRD4 target genes are attenuated by 9cUAB30 treatment. Furthermore, the BRD4 regulated cytokines such as IL6, IL12a, IL19, IL23, IL27, and IL33 which are induced by UVB, are attenuated by 9cUAB30 treatment. However, UVB induced additional multiple cytokines/chemokines. 9cUAB30 treatment was also successful in diminishing their levels significantly. These data support the notion that 9cUAB30 acts by targeting additional inflammation regulating pathways besides those regulated by BRD4 dependent epigenetic modulation. These initial effects in the tumor adjacent skin could be seen even in the SCCs and BCCs which progress from these early benign lesions suggesting that BRD4 mediated signaling is important during the entire pathogenesis of highly malignant cutaneous lesions. This is further confirmed by in vitro investigation employing Squamous cell carcinoma A431 and SCC13 cells in culture. Further evidence that 9cUAB30 acts via dampening BRD4 regulated pathways comes from genetic studies employing the knockdown and forced expression approaches. Our data also demonstrate that 9cUAB30 dependent majority of anti-inflammation and EMT blocking effects are mediated by targeting BRD4- NFkB /BRD4-Twist axis. In summary 9cUAB30 elaborates anti-inflammatory effects by targeting BRD4 regulated chromatin remodeling. Citation Format: Mohammad Waseem, Mahendra P. Kashyap, Changzhao Li, Sandeep C.

Decursin (D) and its isomer decursinol angelate (DA) are the major marker compounds in the ethanol extract of AGN root. In rodent models, we and others have shown that D/DA are rapidly converted to decursinol (DOH) after gavage or i.p. injection. Our multi-omic analyses of the TRAMP neuroendocrine carcinomas suggest immune enhancement by AGN. We have published a 20-subject single dose-PK study (NCT02114957) in men and women volunteers in Amarillo, TX (age 21-58 years) with AGN dietary supplement CognI.Q (purchased from Quality of Life Laboratories). For dosage, each person swallowed 4 vegicaps (800 mg AGN) at time 0, the recommended daily dose by manufacturer. The human AUC0-48h for DOH (27579 h.nmol/L) is much higher than for DA (335 h.nmol/L) and D (37 h.nmol/L), supporting extensive conversion from D/DA to DOH (Zhang, J. et al, PLOS One, 2015). Significantly, as secondary endpoint parameters, the neutrophil counts in these human subjects were increased by 71% at 24h post-dose vs. pre-dose. The natural killer cell (NK) mRNA signature in their peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was increased by 60~90%. Neutrophils (myeloid lineage) fight against bacterial infection whereas NK cells (lymphoid lineage) not only kill virus-infected cells but also recognize and kill cancer cells, serving as a crucial innate immune surveillance against malignancy in our body. Therefore, we hypothesize that daily intake of AGN dietary supplement (CognI.Q) increases the number and/or activities of neutrophils and NK cells, and in turn may boost human innate immune function against bacterial and viral infections as well as cancer risk. As an initial effort to test our hypothesis, the goal of this pilot clinical trial is to delineate the CognI.Q supplement-specific innate immune enhancement activity in healthy men. We will use a double-blinded, placebo-controlled and crossover trial design so that each man will serve as his own comparison for the immune cell responses to CognI.Q and placebo. Supplement period of 3 weeks will be interspersed with a 2 week washout period. We expect to detect an increase in both neutrophil and NK cell counts compared to placebo. Positive data from our proposed trial will be the first of its kind to support enhancement in healthy US residents of these innate immune cells by an AGN dietary supplement. Detailed study design and interim study analysis will be discussed at the meeting. Citation Format: Deepkamal N. Karelia, Jeremy S. Haley, Todd D.

Approximately 81% of prostate cancer is diagnosed during the early stage of the disease. The treatment options for prostate care include surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, but these treatments often have side effects that may result in a poor quality of life such as impotence or decreased bowel function. Our central goal is to test the apoptotic mechanisms of Vernonia amydalina Delile (an edible medicinal plant that is relatively inexpensive, non-toxic, and virtually without side effects) for the prevention of prostate cancer using human adenocarcinoma (PC-3) cells as a test model. To address our specific goal, PC-3 cells were treated with Vernonia amydalina Delile (VAD). Cell viability was determined by the MTT assay and cell morphology was analyzed by acridine orange and propidium iodide (AO/PI) dye using the fluorescent microscope. Cell cycle arrest and cell apoptosis were evaluated by Flow Cytometry assessment. Nucleosomal DNA fragmentation was detected by DNA laddering. Data obtained from the AO/PI dye assessment indicated that VAD significantly reduced the number of live cells in a dose-dependent manner, showing a gradual increase in the loss of viability in VAD-treated cells. A similar result was obtained by the MTT assay. We observed a significant increase in DNA damage in VAD-treated cells compared to the control group. Flow cytometry data demonstrated that VAD induced apoptosis in treated cells compared to the control cells. These results suggest that induction of cell death, cell cycle arrest, and cell apoptosis are involved in the therapeutic efficacy of VAD as anticancer candidate towards the prevention and/or treatment of prostate cancer.

One of the distinctive reason for metastasis has been the imbalance of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) as a result of reduced expression of RECK (reversion-inducing-cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs) a novel tumor suppressor. RECK has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Loss of RECK has been frequently identified in clinical prostate cancer specimens and prostate cancer cell lines, therefore mechanistic understanding of its loss and approaches to restore its expression would facilitate inhibition of metastasis. Green tea polyphenols (GTP) and its major constituent, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) has been shown to suppress prostate cancer metastasis, however the mechanism has not been fully elucidated. We determined whether treatment with GTP has ability to restore induction of RECK and play a key role in suppressing invasiveness in prostate cancer. Human prostate cancer LNCaP tumor were implanted in the ventral prostate of athymic nude mice for 2 weeks followed by per-oral intake of GTP at 7.5 and 15.0 mg/kg body weight freshly prepared in 100µl PBS. Other groups were treated with DNA methyltransferase inhibitor-5-aza-29-deoxycytidine (AZA), histone deacetylase inhibitor-trichostatin A (TSA) and histone methyltransferase inhibitor-3-Deazaneplanocin A (DZNep) individually at 0.1 mg/kg body weight intraperitoneally at alternate days/week; and combination of AZA+TSA and DZNep+TSA at similar doses and times. Treatment of mice with GTP resulted in marked decrease in tumor growth and its local invasion in dose dependent manner, compared to treatment with epigenetic inhibitors and their combination after 8 weeks of intervention. GTP treatment significantly reduced serum levels of MMP-2, MMP-9 and VEGF, compared to treatment with epigenetic inhibitors alone. Combination of AZA+TSA exhibited similar effect which was equivalent to the lower dose of GTP treatment. Furthermore, GTP treatment significantly reduced EZH2 and H3K27me3 and class I HDAC protein levels in tumors. GTP partially reversed RECK hypermethylation and significantly enhanced its expression in the tumor tissue. Similar findings were noted in cell culture where treatment of PC-3 and LNCaP cells with 20µM EGCG and 10µg/mL GTP for 72 h significantly induced RECK expression at mRNA and protein levels along with decrease invasiveness in these cells. Our findings suggest that induction of RECK is a key epigenetic event reactivated by GTP/EGCG that results in suppression of MMP-2/MMP-9, matrix degradation and angiogenesis to delay prostate cancer invasion and its subsequent progression.
