Project description:Anticancer drug sagopilone in lung cancer line A549. We performed gene expression analysis of lung cancer cell line A549 treated with sagopilone and paclitaxel. The aim was to analyse gene expression differences between the two drugs in two different concentrations. A549 cells were treated with medium containing either 2.5 nM sagopilone, 40 nM sagopilone, 4 nM paclitaxel or 40 nM paclitaxel, respectively, vehicle (ethanol 0.1%), or were left untreated for 18 hours. The two different concentrations were chosen according the phenotypes they have caused in A549 cells. Treatment with 2.5 nM sagopilone, 4 nM paclitaxel induced an aneuploid cell population, whereas treatment with 40 nM sagopilone and 40 nM paclitaxel induced mitotic arrest.
Project description:Purpose: To identify differntially expressed transcripts in TP-0903 treated embryos that impair cranila NC EMT and cell migration in zebrafish embryos Methods: zebrafish embryos treated at 13 hpf with 5-7uM TP-0903 and DMSO for 1-, 4- and 8-hrs at 28°C. 35 embryos were collected for each treatment. Results: TP-0903 increases expression of several retinoic acid target genes including genes from within the retinoid pathway Conclusions: TP-0903 causes a direct increase in RA signaling that impairs cranial NC EMT and cell migration in zebrafihs embryos mRNA profiles of zebrafish embryos treated with TP-0903 and DMSO were generated by RNA-Seq, in quadruplicates, using Illumina Hi Seq

Project description:We depleted TIMM13 using short interfering RNA (siRNA) in A549 lung cancer cells, and found that silencing of TIMM13 could significantly inhibit A549 cell proliferation. Thus, we conducted RNA-seq in the A549 cells transduced with either nontargeting siRNA or two distinct TIMM13-specific siRNAs. We observed widespread gene expression change in A549 cells upon TIMM13 knockdown.
Project description:The statsitcal model, latent pathway identification analysis (LPIA), was implemented for the analysis of A549 lung carcinoma cells treated with geldanamycin. Control and treated samples were assayed with Affymetrix HG_U133_plus_2 arrays and analyzed using LPIA. LPIA looks for statistically signï¬cant evidence of dysregulation in a network of pathways constructed in a manner that explicitly links pathways through their common function in the cell. Geldanamycin (geld) is known to inhibit the molecular chaperone protein, Hsp90, and plays a role in preventing the malignant transformation and proliferation of healthy cells during oncogenesis. LPIA successfully identified pathways specific to geldanamycin effects at the gene transcription level. A549 lung carcinoma cells were allowed to adhere for 24h and further incubated in the presence of geldanamycin at a concentration equivalent to the determined IC50 of 40 nM or IC20 of 10 nM, or with vehicle DMSO (final concentration 0.4%). After 24h and 48 h, cells were harvested and total RNA was purified and processed for Affymetrix HG_U133_Plus_2.0 microarray analysis. Raw probe intensities were RMA-normalized and avereaged for three replicates for each condition. Probe sets for 54,120-annotated open reading frames were included in LPIA analysis.
Project description:We deleted SLC2A5 using CRISPR-Cas9 technology in human lung cancer cell A549. Control A549 cells and A549 cells with SLC2A5 knockout were transplanted in balb/c nude mice. Then RNA-seq was performed in control A549 and SLC2A5 ablation A549 Xenografts.
Project description:To determine the signaling networks that are dysregulated in cisplatin-resistant non-small cell lung cancer, noncoding RNA expression data were obtained from, and compared between, the lung adenocarcinoma cell line, A549, and its cisplatin-resistant derivative, A549/CDDP. Noncoding RNA expression data from a cisplatin-sensitive lung adenocarcinoma cancer cell line (A549) were collected and compared to noncoding RNA expression data from a cisplatin-resistant cell line (A549/CDDP). 3 independent experiments were completed for both the sensitive and resistant cell lines.
