Project description:RECK, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein, inhibits the enzymatic activities of some matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), thereby suppressing tumor cell metastasis; however, the detailed mechanism is still obscure. In this study, we compared the gene expression profiles between mock- and RECK-transfected HT1080 cells. Three established cell lines were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays: (1) mock-transfected HT1080 cells, designated as HT1080-Zeo, (2) RECK-overexpressing HT1080 cells, designated as HT1080-RECK, and (3) RECK/4NQ-overexpressing HT1080 cells (in which four N-glycosylation asparagine residues of RECK (Asn86, Asn200, Asn297, and Asn352) were replaced with glutamine residues), designated as HT1080-RECK/4NQ.

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in HT1080 fibrosarcoma cell line after transfection CRABP1 gene and R131A CRABP1 mutant (arginine-alanine substitution in a protein active site, protein lacks the ability to interact with retinoic acid), compared to HT1080 line transfected with empty pLXSN vector. A twelve samples on one chip study using total RNA recovered from four separate cultures of HT1080 human fibrosarcoma cell line transfected with empty pLXSN vector, four HT1080 cell line cultures transfected with CRABP1 gene and four HT1080 cell line cultures transfected with R131A CRABP1 mutant. Each sample on a chip measures the expression level of 44,049 genes from human genome with three-fold technical redundancy.
Project description:We compare histone modifications, chromatin accessibility, and replication timing domain genome-wide in HCT116 colon cancer cells with its genetic derivative DKO cells which lack DNMT3B and DNMT1 activity and the fibrosarcoma cell line HT1080.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.

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.
