Project description:Microarrays were used to analyse global gene expression changes in tumors from wild-type mice treated with GW9662 RNA was isolated (RNeasy Mini Kit, Qiagen) from progestin/DMBA induced mammary tumors from wild-type mice treated with GW9662
Project description:MMTV-PyVT Mammary tumors were harvested from PyVT-wild-type (WT), PyVT-Nr4a1 knockout (KO) littermates on a congenic FVB/NJ background,minced and incubated with collagenase type I digestion solution .The digested Mammary tumor cells were collected and maintained in DMEM medium containing 10% FBS for 24 hour.
Project description:Silencing HoxA1 in vivo by intraductal delivery of nanoparticle-formulated siRNA reduced mammary tumor incidence by 75% , reduced cell proliferation, and prevented loss of ER and PR expression. 8 week wild type FVB mouse whole mammary gland and 8week to 20 week transgenic FVB C3(1)-SV40Tag mouse whole mammary gland
