Transcription profiling by microarray of lncRNA affected by EGF stimulation of MCF10A cells

ABSTRACT: Using basal‐like untransformed cells, MCF10A, as a model system, data from our laboratory showed that both mRNAs and microRNAs exhibit dynamic changes in expression following EGF stimulation (Amit et al, 2007; Avraham et al, 2010; Kostler et al, 2013). We further demonstrated that the inducible mRNAs and microRNAs are embedded into regulatory subnetworks, which are deregulated in diverse tumor types. Considering the emerging roles for long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in metastasis of breast cancer (Serviss et al, 2014), we raised the possibility that some EGF‐inducible lncRNAs might play a role in basal‐like breast cancer. Thus, MCF10A cells were stimulated with EGF (10 ng/ml) for 0, 20, 40, 60, 120, 240 and 480 minutes. RNA was then extracted from cells and expression of lncRNAs was measured using Agilent SurePrint microarrays.
