CUHK Research Committee Funding (Direct (MD07786) Grants) Mechanism of EGFR Activation by Nicotine Genome-wide alteration in histone modifications is a common hallmark of human cancer.

Although frequently observed after nicotine exposure. However, it is clearly shown that EZH2 plays a key role in how nicotine can induce the EGFR activation without hepatocarcinogenesis, the underlying mechanisms the binding of its ligands remains unknown. We remain unclear. The purpose of this study is to hypothesized in this proposal that nicotine can investigate EZH2-mediated gene silencing in HCC. stimulate src mediated tyrosine phosphorylation and The objectives are to: 1) elucidate genome-wide activation of EGFR. How src was recruited to EGFR binding patterns of EZH2 and its associated after nicotine exposure will be studied with repressive chromatin mark, H3K27triM, in HCC cells protein-protein using co-immunoprecipitation and GST pull-down. The high-throughput chromatin interaction assays, such as 2) relevance of EGFR activation in nicotine-induced delineate transcriptional profiles regulated by EZH2 apoptosis resistance and other effects such as Cox-2 immunoprecipitation-microarray (ChIP-chip); up-regulation will also be explored through EGFR 549 Research Institutes Institute of Digestive Disease inactivation with chemical inhibitors or siRNA populations.
