Transcription profiling of human leukemia U937 cells response to hyperthermia
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Hyperthermia (41ËC <) is widely used to treat patients with various cancers. Here, the effects of hyperthermia (42ËC for 90 min) on the gene expression in human lymphoma U937 cells were investigated using an Affymetrix GeneChip system. The cells were treated with hyperthermia (42°C for 90 min) and followed by incubation for 0, 1, 3 or 6 h at 37°C. The percentage of DNA fragmentation was 7.5 ± 0.9 (mean ± SD), 10.1 ± 0.2, and 17.3 ± 2.3 at the incubation periods of 1, 3, and 6 h, respectively. Of approximately 47,000 probe sets analyzed, the hyperthermia down-regulated 4,214 probe sets and up-regulated 1,334 by a factor 2.0 or greater. Experiment Overall Design: U937 cells, a human lymphoma cell line, were treated with hyperthermia (42°C for 90 min) and followed by incubation for 0, 1, 3 or 6 h at 37°C. Non-treated cells were served as control. Total RNA samples were prepared from the cells. Gene expression was analyzed by an Affymetrix GeneChip® system with a Human Genome U133-plus 2.0 array for analysis of over 47,000 transcripts. Sample preparation for array hybridization was carried out as described in the manufacturerâs instructions.
