Project description:The aim of this study was to compare the gene expression profile changes of DMBA-induced rat breast tumors after treatment with adriamycin. To this end, a cDNA microarray was performed (Affymetrix’s Rat Genome 230 2.0 array). This gene expression study was carried out on the tumor biopsy samples prior to adriamycin treatment, and compared with matched tumor biopsy samples after completion of the adriamycin treatment schedule.
Project description:The aim of this study was to compare the gene expression profile changes of DMBA-induced rat breast tumors after treatment with hydroxytyrosol (a natural compound from virgin olive oil). To this end, a cDNA microarray experiment was performed (Affymetrix’s Rat Genome 230 2.0 array). This gene expression study was carried out on the tumor biopsy samples prior to hydroxytyrosol treatment, and compared with matched tumor biopsy samples after completion of the hydroxytyrosol treatment schedule. The result of this study was the identification of several genes related to apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, proliferation, differentiation, survival and transformation-related genes.
Project description:Expression analysis was performed with in vitro cultured cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs) isolated from rat brain. The CGNs were culture for four weeks. Each sample was collected after interval of seven days. No treatment was given to any cultured neurons at any time point. The purpose of the experiment was to identify the genes differentially expressed during the senescence of CGNs. The experiment is useful in revealing the senescence associated genetic markers in neurons.
Project description:In order to establish a rat embryonic stem cell transcriptome, mRNA from rESC cell line DAc8, the first male germline competent rat ESC line to be described and the first to be used to generate a knockout rat model was characterized using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis.
Project description:The aim of this study was to compare the gene expression profile changes of DMBA-induced rat breast tumors from an initial stage to the moment of sacrifice. To this end, a cDNA microarray was performed (Affymetrix’s Rat Genome 230 2.0 array). This gene expression study was carried out on the umor biopsy samples and compared with matched tumor biopsy samples once the study ended (7 weeks after initial biopsy).
