Project description:Hippo signaling pathway is pivotally involved in human cancer. Among the Hippo components, YAP1 is highly active while function of MST1,2 and SAV1 was lost in liver cancer. Based on systematic analysis, we identified KLF5 as YAP1 binding partner in silico. To investigate KLF5 in liver cancer, we performed the gene expression microarray after knocked down YAP1, TEAD1 and KLF5 in SK-Hep1 cell line. To identify the role of YAP1, TEAD1 and KLF5 in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, we performed microarray after knocking down YAP1, TEAD1 and KLF5 in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (3 siLuc, 3 siYAP1, 3 siTEAD1, 3 siKLF5)

Project description:We performed whole microarray expressiong prolife of Sk-hep1 cells which could over-express IL-37. This project is to explore the effect of interleukin-37 on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) development. We transfected human HCC cell line Sk-hep1 with lentiviral vector encoding IL-37 or control. The successfully transfected cells were sorted by FACS and the cells were further cultured for 24 hours. The cells were harvested and send for microarray analysis.
Project description:TARDBP is TARDBP (TDP-43) is a DNA/RNA binding protein and was mutated in human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, its function in human cancer has not been fully identified, yet.Thus, We carried out microarray to investigate the down-stream target genes of TARDBP after silencing TARDBP in liver cancer cell SK-Hep1. To identify the role of TARDBP in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, we performed microarray after knocking down TARDBP in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (3 siLuc, 3 siTARDBP)
Project description:Analysis of global gene expression after BRD4 inhibition by JQ1 in liver cancer cell lines SK-Hep1 Total RNA obtained from human liver cancer cell line SK-Hep1 cells after treatment of JQ1
Project description:The aim of this study was to screen abnormal lncRNAs in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma through high-throughput sequencing, and to screen the biomarkers for prognosis and diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. Transcriptome analysis of 6 samples was completed in this project. A total of 93.581 Gb Clean Data (sequencing Data after quality control) was obtained. The average amount of Clean Data of each sample was 15.597 Gb. The Q30 base percentage was above 93.69 % and GC content was between 44.95% and 50.05%. In conclusion, sequencing analysis provided a landscape for abnormal regulation of lncRNAs, and screened out a significantly different lncRNAs ZFAS1. ZFAS1were found to be overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and correlated with malignant status and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma patients, and ZFAS1 silencing inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of SK-Hep1 cells. The overexpression of miR-582-3p can eliminate the inhibitory effect of ZFAS1 silencing on SK-Hep1 cells, which may be valuable for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. ZFAS1 may be a new potential biomarker for liver cancer. Further studies on the regulatory process of ZFAS1/miR-582-3p will help us to understand the mechanism of the occurrence and development of liver cancer
Project description:The incidence of TP53 loss-of-function in hepatocellular carcinoma is very high. In order to clarify the gene expression differences induced by the changes of TP53 gene, we used two human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, SK-HEP-1 and Hep 3B with TP53 knockdown or overexpression for RNA sequencing . SK-HEP-1 is a TP53 wild-type hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. Thus, we knockdown TP53 in SK-HEP-1. Hep 3B is a TP53 loss-of-function hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. Thus, we overexpress TP53 in Hep 3B. Results of RNA-seq analysis showed the differences after knocking-down or overexpressing TP53.
Project description:Hippo pathway is evolutionarily well conserved. All core components of the pathway identified to date have one or more mammalian orthologs, including MST1/2 (Hippo), SAV1 (Salvador, also known as WW45), LATS1/2 (Warts), MOB1 (Mats), YAP1 and its paralog WWTR1 (also known as TAZ) (Yorkie), and TEAD1/2/3/4 (Scalloped). Ectopic over-expression of YAP1 in mouse liver led to develop hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC is the third most common cause of cancer-related death in the world, and accounts for an estimated 600,000 deaths annually. Lack of molecular classification and clinical heterogeneity of this malignant disease hampered the development of standardized treatment. To investigate roles of Hippo pathway in liver carcinogenesis, we generated liver-specific Mst1/2 -/- and Sav1 -/- mouse models and collected gene expression data from them. Our study provided new understanding on molecular characteristics of HCC. Sav1 and Mst1/2 Knockout models
Project description:The openness of chromatin affects the expression and regulation of genes. In order to figure out the changes of transcriptional factors after sirolimus treatment in hepatocellular carcinoma, ATAC-seq was performed for human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line SK-HEP-1. Here, we found that a series of transcriptional factors, including E2F1, SP1, M2F1, etc. enhanced binding to DNA after sirolimus treatment.
