Project description:The impact of drugs inhibiting DNA methylation (5-aza-2'-deoxycytodine, DAC) and EZH2 (EPZ-6438) on H3K27me3 coverage was analyzed in two neuroblastoma cell lines. Parallel analyses investigated associated changes in RNA expression and DNA methylation. The neuroblastoma cell lines Be(2)-C and IMR5-75 were treated with a combination of DAC and EPZ-6438. Controls were treated with solvent (DMSO). H3K27me3 ChIP seq was done to investigate treatment-related changes of this mark. In addition, H3K4me3 and H3K27ac ChIP seq was done in DMSO treated samples to identify putative regulatory regions.
Project description:Neuroblastoma is a common childhood cancer with almost a third of those affected still dying, thus new therapeutic strategies need to be explored. Current experimental therapies focus mostly on inhibiting oncogenic transcription factor signalling. Dysregulation of miRNAs has oncogenic or suppressive tumor functions in a variety of cancer, also including neuroblastoma. Therefore, we investigated the miRNA landscape in 97 neuroblastoma samples from different INSS stages, including MYCN-amplified (MNA) tumor samples.
Project description:The impact of drugs inhibiting DNA methylation (5-aza-2'-deoxycytodine, DAC) and EZH2 (EPZ-6438) on the neuroblastoma transcriptome was analyzed in two neuroblastoma cell lines. Parallel analyses investigated associated changes in histone modification and DNA methylation. The neuroblastoma cell lines Be(2)-C and IMR5-75 were treated with DAC and EPZ-6438 in combination or alone. Controls were treated with solvent (DMSO). RNA was isolated and sequenced.
Project description:Dataset containing multiple Hyptis and Artemisia spp. used for the discovery of natural products inhibiting aberrant signaling, namely MAPK/ERK and PI3K/AKT, in melanoma
Project description:The impact of drugs inhibiting DNA methylation (5-aza-2'-deoxycytodine, DAC) and EZH2 (EPZ-6438) on the neuroblastoma methylome was analyzed in two neuroblastoma cell lines. Parallel analyses investigated associated changes in histone modification and RNA expression. The neuroblastoma cell lines Be(2)-C and IMR5-75 were treated with a combination of DAC and EPZ-6438. Controls were treated with solvent (DMSO). DNA was isolated, bisulphite converted and hybridised to the llumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip
Project description:Endogenous and exogenous N-Myc co-IP were performed in neuroblastoma cell lines and 293T cells. The co-IP products were pretreated and subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis.
