Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with its aggressive biological behavior, is one of the most diagnosed cancers. Tumor-associated inflammatory cells play important roles in the interaction between chronic inflammation and lung cancer, however the mechanisms involved are far from defined. In the present study, by developing an orthotopic NSCLC mouse model based on chronic inflammation, we proved that an inflammatory microenvironment accelerated the growth of orthotopic xenografts in vivo. Tumor-associated macrophages, the most abundant population of inflammatory cells, were identified. Treatment with macrophage-conditioned medium (MCM) promoted the growth and migration of NSCLC cells. Using bioinformatics analysis, we identified downregulated PP2Ac expression in NSCLC cells upon treatment with MCM. We further confirmed that this downregulation was executed in an NF-κB pathway-dependent manner. As IκB kinase (IKK) has been proved to be a substrate of PP2Ac, inhibition on PP2Ac could result in amplification of NF-κB pathway signaling. Overexpression of PP2Ac, or the dominant-negative forms of IKK or IκB, attenuated the acceleration of growth and metastasis by MCM. Using bioinformatics analysis, we further identified that CXCL1 and COL6A1 could be downstream of NF-κB/PP2Ac pathway. Luciferase assay and ChIP assay further confirmed the location of response elements on the promoter regions of CXCL1 and COL6A1. Elevated CXCL1 facilitated angiogenesis, whereas upregulated COL6A1 promoted proliferation and migration.

Open source database of curated, non-redundant set of profiles derived from published collections of experimentally defined transcription factor binding sites for multicellular eukaryotes. Consists of open data access, non-redundancy and quality. JASPAR CORE is smaller set that is non-redundant and curated. Collection of transcription factor DNA-binding preferences, modeled as matrices. These can be converted into Position Weight Matrices (PWMs or PSSMs), used for scanning genomic sequences. Web interface for browsing, searching and subset selection, online sequence analysis utility and suite of programming tools for genome-wide and comparative genomic analysis of regulatory regions. New functions include clustering of matrix models by similarity, generation of random matrices by sampling from selected sets of existing models and a language-independent Web Service applications programming interface for matrix retrieval.
View all literature mentionsSoftware platform for complex network analysis and visualization. Used for visualization of molecular interaction networks and biological pathways and integrating these networks with annotations, gene expression profiles and other state data.
View all literature mentionsDatabase of known and predicted protein interactions. The interactions include direct (physical) and indirect (functional) associations and are derived from four sources: Genomic Context, High-throughput experiments, (Conserved) Coexpression, and previous knowledge. STRING quantitatively integrates interaction data from these sources for a large number of organisms, and transfers information between these organisms where applicable. The database currently covers 5''214''234 proteins from 1133 organisms. (2013)

View all literature mentionsA software tool used for functional enrichment and interaction network analysis of genes and proteins. Users can search against a default background database or load customized database. The results can be depicted as venn, bar, column, pie and doughnut charts.
View all literature mentionsA database which provides results of comprehensive immunogenomic analyses of next generation sequencing data for 19 solid cancers from The Cancer Genome Atlas and other datasources. The database can be queried for the gene expression of specific immune-related gene sets, cellular composition of immune infiltrates (characterized using gene set enrichment analyses and deconvolution), neoantigens and cancer-germline antigens, HLA types, and tumor heterogeneity (estimated from cancer cell fractions). It also provides survival analyses for different types immunological parameters.
