Project description:Colorectal cancer HT-29 cell line is a comonly-used human cancer cell line. We have used this cell line for examining the effect of various anticancer compounds on gene expression and we obtained gene expression data of untreated HT-29 cells as a control data for the analysis.
Project description:HT-29-MTX cells were treated with Ancylostoma ceylanicum hookworm larvae or left untreated. The differences in gene expression between treated and untreated samples was observed.
Project description:HT-29 cells were barcoded using the CloneTracker lentiviral barcode library and then dabrafenib resistant derivative of these cells were established. Five million barcoded HT-29 cells were seeded into 15 cm cell culture dishes. When the cells reached confluency, two million cells per dish were seeded into four different 15 cm dishes (DMSO Control, Replica A, B, C) and two million cell pellets were stocked as initial cell population. Harvesting used medium through the experiment was performed at monthly intervals. Barcoded HT-29 cell line replicates A, B, and C were treated with 2XIC50 (199.6 nM) of dabrafenib concentration for the duration of 3 months. Following the end points of 3 months for each cell line, DNA isolation from harvested cell lines and collected medium of resistant A cell lines were carried out and barcodes were sequenced.

Whole exome sequencing of dabrafenib-resistant A replicate and DMSO control cell lines were carried out.
Project description:Caco-2 and HT-29 cells were barcoded using the CloneTracker lentiviral barcode library and then irinotecan and capecitabine resistant derivatives of these cell lines were established. Four million barcoded Caco-2 and HT-29 cell were seeded into 15 cm cell culture dishes. When the cells reached confluency, two million cells per dish were seeded into four different 15 cm dishes with 25 mL medium (DMSO Control, Replica A, B, C) and two million cell pellets were stocked as initial cell population.For Caco-2 cell line, mediums in the dishes were changed twice a week with fresh mediums containing IC50 dose (4 months) and subsequently 2x IC50 dose (2 months) of capecitabine, for HT-29 cell line IC50 dose (6 months) of irinotecan. Caco-2 and HT-29 cell lines treated with DMSO were given the same amount of DMSO used in dissolving compounds as fresh medium. Following the end points of six months for each cell line, DNA isolation from harvested cell lines and collected medium of resistant B cell lines were carried out and barcodes were sequenced.
Project description:Low intracellular folate levels diminish the growth rate of HT-29 human colon cancer cells. This is accompanied by a metabolic shift from cytosolic glycolysis towards mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, as demonstrated by a lower lactate production and an increased mitochondrial oxygen consumption rate. To obtain insight in the molecular effects underlying these changes, the steady state gene expression profiles of HT-29 cells with different intracellular folate concentrations were compared. The gene expression profile of HT-29 cells with low intracellular folate levels (grown for 3 weeks in 10 ng/ml folic acid (PGA)) was clearly distinct from that of the other exposure conditions, which provide sufficient intracellular folate levels (100 ng/ml PGA, 10 ng/ml methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF) or 100 ng/ml MTHF). Intracellular folate deficiency, contrary to expectation, did not lead to major changes in expression of genes involved in energy metabolism. This suggests that the shift towards mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation is not mediated at the transcription level. Furthermore, only minor changes in the expression of folate metabolism related genes were observed. The changes that were observed were consistent with nucleotide salvage and in agreement with nucleotide need of the slow-growing folate-deficient HT-29 cells. The major observed effects were on cell cycle related gene expression, which was increased and interferon-responsive gene expression, which was reduced. The increase in cell cycle related gene expression seems compensatory to the reduced cell growth. Down-regulation of the interferon-response may be explained by decreased expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 upon folate deficiency.
