Project description:To test the function and regulated genes of ARID3A gene, we conducted lentivirus-mediated short hairpin RNA (shRNA) against ARID3A in K562 cell line.
Project description:In ovarian cancer cells ARID3A, ARID3B, or both genes were expressed exogenously with lentivirus. Cells were sorted based on expression level using fluoescent tags. RNA was isolated and RNA-sequencing was conducted to identify ARID3 regulated genes.
Project description:Inhibition of ARID3a by shRNA in hemin-induced K562 cells results in significant decrease of erythroid specific lineage factors and alpha-globin genes.
Project description:Previous studies in the mouse indicated that Arid3a plays a critical role in the first cell fate decision required for generation of trophectoderm (TE). Here, we demonstrate that Arid3a is widely expressed during mouse and human placentation and essential for early embryonic viability. Arid3a is located within trophoblast giant cells and other trophoblast-derived cell subtypes in the junctional and labyrinth zones of the placenta. Conventional Arid3a knockout embryos suffer restricted intrauterine growth with sever defects in placental structural organization. Arid3a null placentas show aberrant expression of subtype-specific markers as well as significant alteration in inflammatory response-related genes, cytokines and chemokines. We provide evidence that BMP4-mediated induction of trophoblast stem (TS)-like cells from human induced pluripotent (iPS) stem cells results in ARID3A upregulation and cytoplasmic to nuclear translocation. Overexpression of ARID3A in human iPS and BMP4-mediated TS-like cells up-regulated TE markers, whereas pluripotent markers were down-regulated. Our results indicate that the roles of Arid3a are conserved and essential for mammalian placental development through regulation of both intrinsic and extrinsic developmental programs. Placentas of E10.5 and E11.5 wild type (WT) and Arid3a-/- mice were generated by deep sequencing, using Illumina

Project description:In order to determine proteins interacting with ARID3A in the ML-DS cell line CMK, we performed CoIP of endogenous ARID3A followed by LC-MS/MS
Project description:Aging results in altered gene expression patters in HSCs expressing ARID3A transcirpts, with a number of genes downregulated in aged donor ARID3a+ HSCs compared to young donor ARID3a+ HSCs
