Project description:We have used chromatin immune-precipitation with parallel sequencing (ChIP-Seq) technology to identify genome-wide p53 binding in human lymphoblastoid cell lines treated withionizing radiation ChIP-Seq analysis of p53 binding sites in human lymphoblastoid cells treated with ionizing radiation or vehicle
Project description:Thyroid gland is among the most sensitive organs to ionizing radiation. Whether low-dose radiation-induced papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) differs from sporadic PTC is yet unknown. We used microarrays to identify gene signature of radiation-induced papillary thyroid carcinomas
Project description:Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) present a novel platform for in vitro investigation of the early embryonic cellular response to ionizing radiation. Thus far, no study has analyzed the genome-wide transcriptional response to ionizing radiation in hESCs. In this study, we use Agilent microarrays to analyze the global gene expression changes in H9 hESCs after low (0.4 Gy), medium (2 Gy), and high (4 Gy) dose irradiation.
