Purpose
Aberrant promoter DNA methylation can serve as a predictive biomarker for improved clinical responses to certain chemotherapeutics. One of the major advantages of methylation biomarkers is the ease of detection and clinical application. In order to identify methylation biomarkers predictive of a response to a taxane-platinum based chemotherapy regimen in advanced NSCLC we performed an unbiased methylation analysis of 1,536 CpG dinucleotides in cancer-associated gene loci and correlated results with clinical outcomes.Methods
We studied a cohort of 49 patients (median age 62 years) with advanced NSCLC treated at the Atlanta VAMC between 1999 and 2010. Methylation analysis was done on the Illumina GoldenGate Cancer panel 1 methylation microarray platform. Methylation data were correlated with clinical response and adjusted for false discovery rates.Results
Cav1 methylation emerged as a powerful predictor for achieving disease stabilization following platinum taxane based chemotherapy (p = 1.21E-05, FDR significance = 0.018176). In Cox regression analysis after multivariate adjustment for age, performance status, gender, histology and the use of bevacizumab, CAV1 methylation was significantly associated with improved overall survival (HR 0.18 (95%CI: 0.03–0.94)). Silencing of CAV1 expression in lung cancer cell lines(A549, EKVX)by shRNA led to alterations in taxane retention.Conclusions
CAV1 methylation is a predictor of disease stabilization and improved overall survival following chemotherapy with a taxane-platinum combination regimen in advanced NSCLC. CAV1 methylation may predict improved outcomes for other chemotherapeutic agents which are subject to cellular clearance mediated by caveolae. 相似文献2.

Temperature is the most critical factor that directly affects the physiological functioning and metabolic activities of any organism. With rising global temperature, understanding the heat stress response of an organism is critically important. In the present study, we investigated differences in the early changes occurring upon heat stress in the green microalga Acutodesmus dimorphus, a potential strain for biofuel production. The cells were heat-stressed at 45 and 50°C for 24 h and the temporal response of cells in terms of growth, pigments content, levels of oxidative stress biomarkers i.e., reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the response of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant scavengers were evaluated. The results revealed that after 24 h of heat stress at 45°C, the accumulations of chlorophyll a and carotenoids remained stable; all three ROS increased with the higher activities of various enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants. On the contrary, at a higher temperature of 50°C, the accumulations of chlorophyll a, carotenoids and non-enzymatic antioxidants reduced drastically while the accumulations of all three ROS and the response of enzymatic antioxidants were significantly higher than those at 45°C. These results suggest that the cells utilize several stress acclimatization mechanisms to cope up the heat stress. There was a dramatic difference in the physiological changes and cellular antioxidant mechanism upon heat stress at 45 and 50°C. The cellular defense response of A. dimorphus gets impaired after heat stress at 50°C but remains active at 45°C, exhibiting the heat resistance and, thus, the thermotolerance. 相似文献
