Project description:We generated a HeLa cell model of mucopolysaccharidosis IIIB (MPSIIIB) by depleting NAGLU. MPSIIIB-associated cell defects were prominent in NAGLU-depleted cells. We explored alterations of metabolic pathways in NAGLU-depleted cells versus non-depleted control cells by performing gene expression profiling. Exon array transcriptome analysis showed 96 transcripts with increased expression level and 38 transcripts with decreased expression level in NAGLU-depleted versus non-depleted cells.
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.

We explored alterations of metabolic pathways in NAGLU-depleted cells versus non-depleted control cells by performing gene expression profiling. Exon array transcriptome analysis showed 96 transcripts with increased expression level and 38 transcripts with decreased expression level in NAGLU-depleted versus non-depleted cells. Total RNA was extracted from two independent cultures of non-depleted cells and NAGLU-depleted cells. We considered a minimal fold change of 1.5 fold and a corrected P value lower than 0.05.
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. One-condition experment, gene expression of 3A6
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.
