Project description:To examine the existence of lymphoma initiating cells, we used an anaplastic large cell lymphoma mouse model. Established NPM-ALK+ lymphomas contained a heterogeneous cell composition ranging from mature T-cells to undifferentiated hematopoietic stem cells. To investigate the underlying mechanisms and activated pathways of lymphoma initiating cells we used gene expression analyses. These analyses unmasked stem-cell-like transcriptional regulation exclusively of the DN3/DN4 lymphoma T-cell subpopulation.
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.
