CIC-TEX-initiated changes in RTK and downstream signaling molecules in CD44v6kd and Tspan8kd cells. a Signaling array of A818.4-v6kd cells cultured for 72 h with/without CIC-TEX. The relative signal strength was evaluated by ImageJ; significant differences by coculture with CICTEX: *. Flow-cytometry and WB analysis of (b, c) RTK expression in kd-TEX- or CIC-TEX-treated kd cells and (d, e) major pathway-engaged cytosolic signaling molecules; b,d mean % stained cells ± SD (3 assays), significant differences by coculture with TEX: *; c, e representative examples and relative signal strength ± SD of 3 independent experiments including p-values for kd cells compared to CIC-TEX-treated kd cells; f pathways from miRNA to RTK (IPA-based STRING analysis after predicted target mRNA selection by microrna.org and targetscan.org) for ≥ 2-fold upregulated miRNA (framed) and ≥ 2-fold reduced mRNA recovery in CIC-TEX-treated v6kd or Tsp8kd cells compared to untreated kd cells; g IPA-based STRING analysis after predicted target mRNA selection by microrna.org and targetscan.org for ≥ 2-fold reduced miRNA in CIC-TEX-treated compared to untreated v6kd cells and of ≥ 2-fold upregulated predicted mRNA targets that are engaged in signal transduction. h Flow-cytometry analysis of ex vivo harvested intrapancreatic A818.4-v6kd cells from nude mice with/without weekly iv CIC-TEX treatment; mean % stained cells ± SD (3 tumors), significant differences by CIC-TEX treatment: s; i Representative immunohistology examples of A818.4-v6kd and -Tsp8kd shockfrozen tumor sections with/without CIC-TEX treatment stained with the indicated antibodies (scale bar: 100 μm). (List of synonyms: Additional file 1: Table S1). CIC-TEX treatment strongly affects RTK expression and downstream signaling molecules in vitro and in vivo. Changes in the recovery of mRNA engaged in signal transduction (Additional file 1: Figure S2d, S2e) are accompanied at a noteworthy frequency by reversely altered miRNA expression in CIC-TEX-treated kd, predominantly v6kd cells

CIC-TEX-promoted apoptosis-resistance in CD44v6kd and/or Tspan8kd cells. a Flow-cytometry of cells cultured for 48 h in the presence of cisplatin; mean % AnnexinV + and AnnexinV+/PI + cells ± SD (triplicates); significant differences of wt cells versus CIC or kd cells: *; significant differences by CIC-TEX treatment: s. b mRNA that expression differed by ≥ 2-fold after CIC-TEX treatment in Tsp8kd (blue) or v6kd (violet) cells were sorted by KEGG analysis according to the engagement in distinct apoptotic processes. c-f Flow-cytometry analysis of apoptosis-related receptor and cytoplasmic signaling molecules in A818.4, −v6kd and CIC-enriched cells and in v6kd cells cocultured with v6kd- or CIC-TEX; mean % stained cells ± SD (3 assays), significant differences between wt cells, v6kd cells and CIC: *, significant differences by coculture of v6kd cells with TEX: s. g Representative immunohistology examples of A818.4 and -v6kd shock-frozen tumor sections from untreated or CIC-TEX-treated mice stained with the indicated antibodies (scale bar: 100 μm). (List of synonyms: Additional file 1: Table S1). Slightly reduced apoptosis resistance of v6kd and Tsp8kd tumor cells becomes mitigated by CIC-TEX treatment. The impact of CIC-TEX on apoptosis resistance is mostly restricted to the regulation of molecules engaged in the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis induction. An exception is the increased expression of drug transporters in CIC-TEX-treated v6kd cells

GEM and CO029 weakly affect tumor growth and strongly tumor cell dissemination. Ex vivo analysis indicates that GEM and CO029 act independently. GEM primarily affects tumor cell apoptosis, proteases and MDSC expansion, CO029 treatment is accompanied by a reduction in (Tsp8-associated) CIC markers and compromises (lymph)angiogenesis
