Project description:IPH-926 is an anticancer drug-resistant tumor cell line derived from a chemo-refractory human infiltrating lobular breast cancer (ILBC). IPH-926 ILBC cells were subjected to gene expression profiling using an Affymetrix HG U133 Plus 2.0 array.
Project description:IPH-926 is an anticancer drug-resistant tumor cell line derived from a chemo-refractory human infiltrating lobular breast cancer (ILBC). IPH-926 ILBC cells were subjected to gene expression profiling using an Affymetrix HG U133 Plus 2.0 array. To characterize the global gene expression of IPH-926, cells were subjected to transcriptional profiling using the Affymetrix HG U133 Plus 2.0 technology. The correct identity of the IPH-926 cells subjected to gene expression profiling was authenticated by short tandem repeat (STR) profiling.
Project description:This experiment aims to study transcriptional alterations induced by reconstitution of wild type E-cadherin expression in human lobular breast cancer cells harbouring deleterious, somatic CDH-1 mutations Two cell lines (IPH-926 and MDA-MB-134) expressing synthetic Ecad (EcadEGFP) or not (EGFP) were compared against each other. Analysis were conducted in triplicates (IPH-926) and quadruplicates (MDA-MB-134), respectively.
Project description:The ts-p53 E285K protein is a rare p53 mutant with temperature-sensitive (ts) loss of function characteristics. In cancer cells, which express ts-p53 E285K intrinsically, endogenous wild type p53 activity is reconstituted by appropriate cultivation temperature (permissive condition). At non-appropriate cultivation temperature (restrictive condition) this p53 mutant is inactive. The present study took advantage of this mechanism and employed IPH-926 lobular breast cancer cells and BT-474 ductal breast cancer cells, which both harbor endogenous ts-p53 E285K, for the transcriptional profiling of p53-responsive genes. This new approach eliminated the need for genetic modification or cytotoxic stimulation to achive a p53 response in the cells being investigated . Three subseqent passages of IPH-926 lobular breast cancer cells (harboring ts-p53 E285K) were seeded into two parallel culture dishes each and were allowed to adopt to restrictive and permissive condition for 24 h before analysis on Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays. Subsequently, this experiment was repeated with BT-474 ductal breast cancer cells (also harboring ts-p53 E285K). To gate out non-specific temperature effects, the same experiment was also performed with MCF-7 breast cancer cells (harboring wt p53). Probe sets differentially expressed at restrictive versus permissive condition in MCF-7 were considered as non-specifically regulated. These probe sets were excluded from the final statistical analysis of IPH-926 and BT-474 expression data. response to restored p53 activity

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:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.
