Project description:Previous studies showed that S100A8 and S100A9 are involved in neovascularization as well as in tumor development. At high concentrations, S100A8 and S100A9 cause inflammatory response or apoptosis mediated damage in vascular endothelial cells. But the effect of low concentrations of such proteins on endothelial cells remains unknown. This assay was performed to screen for genes that are involved in the response of Human Unbilican Vascular Endothelial Cells to low concentrations of S100A8. Human Umblical Vascular Endothelial Cells (HUVEC) were cultuered and treated with 10ug/mL S100A8 proteins for 4 or 24 hours. Gene profiling was carried out using two-color microarray. Two-condition experiment, S100A8 treatment vs. non-treatment. Two time points: 4 hours and 24 hours. Biological replicates at each time point: 3 control replicates, 3 treatment replicates.

Project description:Effect of TNF-alpha on microRNAs levels in Human Umbilical Endothelial Cells (HUVECs). HUVEC that were treated or not for 2 or 24 hours with TNF (10 ng/ml). Duplicate samples (1 or 2) of two different isolations of HUVEC (A or B)
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:To profile changes in gene expression in human endothelial cells in response to VEGF-A165 and phenotypic changes during vascular network formation in vitro 16 samples of human umbilical vein endothelial cells were analysized, four distinct biological samples were used in each condition. The four conditions included: VEGF treatment in Matrigel culture, Mock treatment in Matrigel culture, VEGF treatment in 2D monolayer, and mock treatment in 2D monolayer.
