Project description:Analysis of AR-regulation of gene expression. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that AR influences the expression of genes that participate in important bioprocesses in prostate cancer cells, including cell cycle, DNA replication, recombination and repair. Results provide important information on AR-responsive genes that may be crucial to the cell survival and the progression of prostate cancer. Total RNA obtained from AR siRNA-transfected prostate cancer cells compared to negative control siRNA-transfected prostate cancer cells 48 h after siRNa transfection.
Project description:Analysis of c-Myb-regulation of gene expression. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that c-Myb influences the expression of specific sets of genes that are involved in cell cycle, DNA replication, recombination and repair. Results provide important information on c-Myb-responsive genes that may be crucial to the cell survival and the progression of prostate cancer. Total RNA obtained from c-Myb siRNA-transfected prostate cancer cells compared to negative control siRNA-transfected prostate cancer cells 48 h after siRNa transfection.
Project description:High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) is a highly abundant and evolutionarily conserved non-histone chromatin component with the ability to bind and bend DNA. The protein is involved in fundamental nuclear processes including nucleosome sliding, transcription, replication, V(D)J recombination and DNA transposition. To assess the functional impact of HMGB1 on transcription we performed gene expression profile analyses of mouse embryonic fibroblasts, wild-type or knockout for the Hmgb1 gene 2 genetic backgrounds: wild-type (Wt), Hmgb1-/- (KO), 3 biological replicates (rep1, rep2, rep3; S phase synchronized cells in duplicate only), no technical replicates. Each pair of wt and Hmgb1-/- MEFs was isolated from embryos born from a single Hmgb1+/- mother crossed with a Hmgb1 +/- male. Total RNAs from three pairs of MEFs, derived from three different mothers and cultured up to passage 3, were extracted using mirVana miRNA Isolation Kit (Ambion) and analyzed on the Illumina BeadsArray platform.
Project description:Pluripotent stem cells were differentiated using a 4 factor differentiation method to neural precursor cells (NPCs) The objective of this study is to find similar gene expression patterns in hNPCs derived from different cell lines through a single technique. 10 Samples were analyzed in this study. This included 5 hNPC lines 4 hPSC lines and one sample of human dermal fibroblasts.
Project description:Illumina gene array analyses of prostate cancer cell lines that had acquired resistance to Enzalutamide (MDV3100). mRNA analyses of four cell lines (CWR-R1, LAPC-4, LNCaP, and VCAP) cells that were either untreated, treated for 48hrs with Enz (short-term), or continuously grown in Enzalutamide for >6 months.
Project description:Analyses whether, and if so, gene expression can add prognostic information in the subgroups of patients with tumours with low or high proliferative activity. As proliferation measured with MAI and PPH3 has repeatedly been shown to be the best prognosticator in node-negative breast cancer (high sensitivity, little overtreatment). Total RNA were extracted from 94 lymph node negative breast cancer patients
Project description:Analysis of enzalutamide- and/or olaparib-responsive gene expression in prostate cancer cells. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that enzalutamide influences the expression of genes that are involved in important bioprocesses in prostate cance rcells, including DNA damage response genes and this effect may synergize with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor olaparib in cytotoxicity to prstate cancer cells. prostate cancer cells were pretreated with enzalutamide or vehicle control DMSO for 24 h, followed by treatment with enzalutamide, olaparib, enzalutamide+olaparib, or vehicle control DMSO for 48 h. Gene expression in enzalutamide+olaparib-treated cells was compared with taht in vehicle control- and single agent-treated cells.
