Research Projects Ongoing or Completed during the last 5 Years
Targets to Therapeutics in Pancreatic Cancer. This project seeks to identify one therapeutic per year that targets the genetic vulnerabilities in Pancreatic Cancer. The analysis challenges include modeling gene regulatory networks with siRNA and arrayCGH analysis and typing these to relevant phenotypic clinical data. Core B Co-PI and Biostatistician: Phillip Stafford (10%) Validation of Genes that Modulate Doxorubincin Therapy. The major goals in this project are (1) to identify genes that, when silenced by high-throughput siRNA, synergistically increase the cytotoxic sensitivity to Doxorubicin in human breast cancer cell lines, and (2) to characterize and systematically investigate the mechanisms of sensitization, (3) finally to test increased sensitivity in mice when these genes are targeted in living tumors. Cross-discipline Investigation of Melanoma Invasiveness in cancer cells undergoing differential motility development in response to pH. This project investigates the transcriptional response to pH of melanoma cell lines that enhance metastasis using expression, oligoCGH, protein and SNP data. Principal Investigator: Robert Gilles, PhD, MD; CoPI: Phillip Stafford, Matthew Rain Agency: Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA Period: Sept. 15, 2004 – Sept. 15, 2006 renewable Continuation Format Page
Principal Investigator/Program Director (Last, First, Middle): Vesicle Transport in Axonal Vesicle Trafficking via MyoV and non-neuronal kinesin using high performance digital interference light microscopy. The long-term objectives of this project were to identify and characterize the myosin motor responsible for vesicle transport on actin filaments in neurons; whether myosin V and kinesin co-localized on ER vesicles and inhibition of myosin V activity blocked vesicle transport on actin filaments. Principal Investigator: George M. Langford, PhD Principal Research Scientist: Phillip Stafford (50%) Agency: National Science Foundation/ Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences Period: August 15, 1995 – July 31, 2000 Nucleocytoplasmic Transport of mRNA in Yeast investigates the function of a highly conserved and essential mRNA helicase that couples 3’ mRNA processing and mRNA export. The goal of this project was characterization of a highly conserved and DEAD-box helicase in yeast and mammals, DBP5p. The helicase links 3’ mRNA processing and export by associating with processed mRNP’s at CFI and transporting them to the cytoplasmic fibrils of oncogene CAN/Nup214p. Principal Investigator: Charles N. Cole, PhD Biochemist and Computational Researcher: Phillip Stafford (50%) Period: August 15, 1997 to December 31, 2000. Cancer Biology and Carcinogenesis (Broad spectrum study of cancer biology, phamacology, oncogenesis). The principle goal of the training grant was to provide a strong background in cancer biology and cancer awareness while studying other areas of cell biology and biochemistry. This approach invited discoveries from outside the domain of typical cancer research, in this case using yeast genetics. Principal Investigator: Alan R. Eastman, MD, PhD Principal Scientist: Phillip Stafford (50%) Period: August 15, 1994 to December 31, 2000. Continuation Format Page
