Project description:We report the gene expression patterns in MDA-MB-231 (a line selected for low metastatic ability), MDA-MB-231-1833 (its bone-tropic metastatic derivative line), MDA-MB-231p27CK-DD (a phosphomimetic cell line), MDA-MB-231-1833shp27 (p27 knockdown cell line), MDA-MB-231-1833PF1502 (PI3K inhibitor treatment). It shows that the gene expression pattern are regulated in a p27 phosphorylation-dependent manner.
Project description:Dicer, RNase III endonuclease, is an essential enzyme in miRNA biogenesis that regulates target gene expression, and it has been reported that aberrant expressions of Dicer associate with the clinical outcomes of patients in various cancers. To explore the miRNA differencial expression regulated by Dicer in MDA-MB-231/E1A cells, the microarray profiling analysis was employed to conduct differentially expressed miRNAs in stable MDA-MB-231/vector, MDA-MB-231/E1A, and MDA-MB-231/E1A/shDicer cells.
Project description:The project profiled the expression patterns in hypoxia induced secretomes between MDA-MB-231 parental and MDA-MB-231 Bone Tropic (BT) breast cancer cell lines which have been previously generated by Massague and colleagues (Kang et al. Cancer Cell 2003).
