Project description:Gene expression profile of A549 and WI38VA13 was compared. Keywords: cell type comparison Total RNA of one sample from each cell lines was analyzed
Project description:To examine the role of NRF2 in accelerating cell proliferation and to identify the target genes responsible for this function, transcriptome analysis was performed using A549 cells, in which NRF2 is constitutively activated. NRF2 was knocked down by siRNA against NRF2, and the gene expression profile was compared with that of A549 cells treated with control siRNA. To exclude off-target effects, three different siRNAs against NRF2 was independently applied.

Cells were harvested 24 hours after transfection, and total RNA was purified.
Project description:In the present study, we successfully generated lung cancer stem cell (CSC)-like cells by introducing a small set of transcription factors into a lung cancer cell line (OSK-A549-Colony). In addition to properties that are conventionally referred to as CSC properties, the lung induced CSCs exhibited the ability to form lung cancer-like tissues in vitro with vascular cells and mesenchymal stem cells, which showed structures and immunohistological patterns that were similar to human lung cancer tissues.
Project description:We have transfected a new tumor suppresor gene named ARLTS1 in A549 lung cancer cell line that shows a very low expression level in comparison with normal lung. This line was transfected using the pMV-7 vector containing the full length ARLTS1 coding sequence (transfected cell lines denoted FL1 to FL4), the C-terminus deleted cDNA (transfectants denoted Stop1 to Stop3) or the control (empty) vector. The expression profile was compared between the FL and Stop clones, using the wild-type as reference.
Project description:We observed the expression profile of the total mRNA of TTHB212 deletion mutant of Thermus thermophilus HB8 strain grown in a rich (TR) medium at 70°C compared with that of wild type. Keywords: cell type comparison
Project description:We observed the expression profile of the total mRNA of crp (TTHA1437) deletion mutant of Thermus thermophilus HB8 strain grown in a rich (TT) medium at 70oC compared with that of wild type. Keywords: cell type comparison
Project description:We observed the expression profile of the total mRNA of sigE (TTHB211) deletion mutant of Thermus thermophilus HB8 strain grown in a rich (TT) medium at 70oC compared with that of wild type. Keywords: cell type comparison
