Project description:Treatment with vitamin C (Vc) on MaF pre-induced pluripotent stem cells (pre-iPSCs) induced a rapid conversion into full-iPSCs within a few passages. We used microarrays to identify changes induced by Vc in the MaF pre-iPSC clone.
Project description:In order to understand the global gene expression changes resulting from the addition of vitamin C (Vc) to SKO (sox2, klf4 and oct4)-transduced mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), we used microarray to compare the gene expression profile at different time points with or without Vc.
Project description:Gadd45a can enhance somatic cell reprogramming significantly. To explore the roles of Gadd45a playing in reprogramming, we performed whole genome microarray to identify genes and signals pathways that regulated by Gadd45a. Genes expression of MEFs was measured at day8 in reprogramming. Three samples were set: MEFs infected with SKO plus Flag, MEFs infected with SKO plus Gadd45a and MEFs infected with SKO plus G39A which is a negative mutant of Gadd45a.
Project description:Gadd45a can enhance somatic cell reprogramming significantly. To explore the roles of Gadd45a playing in reprogramming, we performed miRNA microarray to identify miRNAs and signals pathways that regulated by Gadd45a. miRNAs expression of MEFs was measured at day8 in reprogramming. Four samples were set: MEFs infected with SKO plus Flag, MEFs infected with SKO plus Gadd45a, MEFs infected with SKOM plus Flag and MEFs infected with SKOM+Ga.
Project description:We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression profiles of OSKM and N2OSKM-infected MEFs over a time course (3, 7, 11 dpi).
Project description:Treatment with MicroRNA cluster B and C increase the iPS efficiency We used microarrays to identify changes induced by MicroRNA clusters in the iPS process One group were MEFs infected with SKO factors, plus MicroRNA cluster B, C or control blank virus. The other group were MEFs infected with MicroRNA cluster B, C or control blank virus only.TRIZOL cell lysates were prepared at D4 and D8.
Project description:Overexpression HDAC7 can enhance iPS efficiency in SKO by supressing MEF2 factors We used microarrays to identify changes induced by overexpression of HDAC7 or MEF2C. MEFs were transduced with SKO plus HDAC7 or MEF2C compared to SKO plus empty vector(Flag), GFP as controls. TRIZOL cell lysates were prepared from D6 and D10.
