Project description:3T3L1 preadipocytes were treated with DMSO control and Nutlin-3a (prepared in DMSO) and total RNA extracted from the treated cells were subjected to illumina based RNA-seq to analyze and compare transcriptome to understand gene expression regulation influenced by p53 activation via Nutlin-3a treatment.
Project description:Mass spectrometry-based whole proteome analysis of parental and RFX7 knock-out U2OS cells treated with 10 µM Nutlin-3a or DMSO solvent control. Ten biological replicates were used.
Project description:This study has examined the molecular mechanisms underlying sensitivity of sarcomas to Nutlin-3a, a non-genotoxic activator of the p53 pathway. Human patient material was collected immediately following surgical resection, dissected into small pieces and ex planted onto gelatin sponges immersed in media containing either vehicle control or Nutlin-3a (10uM and/or 50uM) for 48 hours. Nutlin-3a represents a novel targeted therapy for the treatment of sarcomas. We have examined expression profiles of genes upregulated in sarcoma patient derived tissues following nutlin-3a treatment ex vivo 16 samples ((Vehicle control and Nutlin-3a (10uM and 50uM) treated samples)) from 6 sarcoma patients
