Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
Project description:Transcription profiling by array of human mammary epithelial cells exposed to different environmental stresses: hypoxia, lactic acidosis, lactosis, acidosis and a combination of hypoxia and lactic acidosis
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression. Two-condition experiment, Normoxic MSCs vs. Hypoxic MSCs.
Project description:To delineate the role of hypoxia in esophageal epithelial biology, we carried out gene array experiments using a non-transformed immortalized diploid human esophageal cell line, EPC2-hTERT (Mol Cancer Res. 2003;1:729-38). Unlike cancer cell lines, EPC2-hTERT has no genetic alterations at early passages that may affect the cellular response to hypoxia. Experiment Overall Design: EPC2-hTERT cells were exposed to moderate (1% O2) hypoxia in experiment 1 (Exp1) or severe (0.2% O2) hypoxia in experiment 2 (Exp2). Normoxia (21% O2) served as a control in both experiments.
