Identification of differentially expressed miRNAs in HCSC cell lines compared with HCC cell lines
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Hep3B and Huh7 are two types of human hepatoma cell lines (HCC). In our laboratory, we cultured their stem-like cancer cells (HCSCs), Hep3B-C and Huh7-C. And we have demonstrated that these cells had enhanced stem cell properties, drug resistance, properties of EMT, and stronger tumor-initiating capabilities. To explore functionally crucial miRNAs in HCSCs, 2 samples of HCSCs and 2 samples of HCCs were sequenced by the Illumina Genome Analyzer II. Through differential expression analysis, we finally identified 9 up- and 9 down-regulated miRNAs which were consistently up- and down-regulated in two stem cells compared to the cancer cells. Expression analysis using total RNAs extracted from 2 HCSC cell lines (Hep3B-C and Huh7-C), and 2 HCC cell lines (Hep3B and Huh7).
