Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE14449: Gene expression profiles of spontaneous metastasis in a K-ras/p53 mutant mouse model; GSE14458: Gene expression profiles of 344SQ lung adenocarcinoma cells with high metastatic potential (syngeneic mouse model) Experiment Overall Design: Refer to individual Series
Project description:Salivary tumors isolated from MMTV-ras transgenic mice expressing wild-type p53, no p53 or p53R172H gain-of-funcion mutant were subjected to genome-wide gene expression profiling to assess the effect of the different p53 status on tumor gene expression. A total of 12 spontaneous salivary tumors from MMTV-ras/p53+/+, MMTV-ras/p53-/- or MMTV-ras/p53R172H/R172H mice (4 tumors per genotype) were analyzed using Affymetric GeneChip for gene expression profiling. The multi-class comparison function of Significance Analysis of Microarray (SAM) with an FDR of 1% was used to identify genes that are differentially regulated across the three genotypic groups.
Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate whether the trefoil peptide genes, in concerted action with a miRNA regulatory network, were contributing to nutritional maintrenance. Using a Tff2 knock-out mouse model, 48 specific miRNAs were noted to be significantly deregulated when compared to the wild type strain.
