    AcceGen Biotechnology uacc62 cells
    (A) Flow chart to generate MAPKi-resistant melanoma cells. The naïve B-Raf V600E mutant melanoma cells upon exposure to MAPKi show an initial reduction in proliferation. But upon exposure to MAPKi for ∼2 months results in acquisition of resistance. These resistant cells were then cultured in the presence of MAPKi. (B) A375, M481 and <t>UACC62</t> naïve and resistant cells were compared for proliferation using an imaging based EdU incorporation assay in 2D cell culture conditions. The naïve cells were treated with vehicle control or with MAPKi and the proliferation compared to MAPKi-resistant melanoma cells. The % Proliferation was determined as the ratio of EdU-positive cells to the total cells determined by DAPI counterstain. The scale bar on the image is 50µm. (C) A375 naïve and resistant cells were cultured on glass coverslips. The naive cells were either treated with vehicle control or MAPKi. All the cells were then fixed and stained with phalloidin to evaluate F-actin structures. The scale bar on the image is 10µm. For (B) Three biological repeats were performed with a minimum of 9 images acquired per sample per repeat. The statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA. For (C) Imaging was performed for three biological repeats with a minimum of 10 images acquired per sample per biological repeat. For the statistical significance; ns P ≥ 0.05, *P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.01, ***P ≤ 0.001, ****P ≤ 0.0001. The data represented in (B) is mean ± s.e.m.

    Article Title: RhoA activation promotes glucose uptake to elevate proliferation in MAPK inhibitor resistant melanoma cells

    doi: 10.1101/2024.01.09.574940

    Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) RhoA activation was evaluated in A375, UACC62 and M481 naïve and resistant melanoma cells using the RhoA activation pull down assay. The band intensities were quantified for the rho pull down as a ratio of resistant to naïve cells. (B) The A375 naïve and resistant cells were treated with Y27632 and GSK269962A for 48h followed by EdU incorporation assay to evaluate proliferation. (C) A375 naïve and resistant melanoma cells treated with GSK269962A were evaluated for glucose uptake using NBD-glucose and the intensities quantified per cells using ImageJ. (D) Metabolic rate was quantified for A375 resistant melanoma cells treated with GSK269962A and evaluated for ECAR and OCR. (E) RhoA was activated in naïve A375 and M481 using a constitutively active RhoA (CA-RhoA) and evaluated for glucose uptake using NBD-glucose assay and image intensities quantified per cell which was compared to empty vector (EV). (F) Seahorse assay was performed to evaluate ECAR and OCR in naïve A375 and M481 melanoma cells with EV or CA-RhoA. (G) Proliferation between EV and CA-RhoA was evaluated using EdU incorporation assay for the naïve A375 and M481 melanoma cells. For (A) 4 biological repeats, (B) Three biological repeats were performed with three data points per repeat, (C) (E) and (G) Three biological repeats with at least 10 images per sample per repeat, (D) Three biological repeats with four data points per sample per repeat. (F) Three biological repeats with six data points per repeat. The statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA for (C), and (D). Welch’s t-test was used for (E), (F) and (G). For the statistical significance; ns P ≥ 0.05, *P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.01, ***P ≤ 0.001, ****P ≤ 0.0001. The data represented in (B) is mean ± s.e.m.

    Article Snippet: A375 cells (human malignant melanoma cells harvested from a 54-year-old female CRL-1619, ATCC, RRID: CVCL_0132), UACC62 cells (human malignant melanoma ABC-TC534S, Accegen, RRID: CVCL_1780), M481 primary cells were acquired from the University of Michigan via Dr. Sean Morrison at UT Southwestern Medical Center, WM164 (metastatic human melanoma cell line established from a metastatic site in a 22-year-old male with stage IV superficial spreading melanoma WM164-01-0001, Rockland, RRID: CVCL_7928), 451Lu (xenograft aggressive metastatic sub-line of WM164; 451Lu-01-0001, Rockland, RRID: CVCL_6357).

    Techniques: Activation Assay, Pull Down Assay, Glucose Assay, Plasmid Preparation

    (A) The activity of PKA in A375, M481 and UACC62 naïve and resistant melanoma cells was evaluated using the PKA activation assay. (B) To induce PKA activation in A375 resistant cells 8-Bromo-cAMP was used and the metabolic state was evaluated using seahorse assay. (C) Proliferation was evaluated in A375 resistant melanoma cells upon 8-Bromo-cAMP treatment using EdU incorporation assay. For (A) each data point represents a biological repeat. For (B) Three biological repeats were performed with four data points per repeat. For (C) three biological repeats ten data points per repeat. The statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA for (B) and (C). Welch’s t-test was used for (A). For the statistical significance; ns P ≥ 0.05, *P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.01, ***P ≤ 0.001, ****P ≤ 0.0001. The data represented in (B) is mean ± s.e.m.
