Project description:The experiment was designed to display differential gene expression profiling in three human intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) cells upon knockdow of LKB1 tumor suppressor, by using RNAseq technology.
Project description:microRNA profile of human intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma vs. normal intrahepatic bile duct tissue
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.
Project description:Single-cell transcriptomic profiling of human liver tissues collected from hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma patients. Samples were collected from multiple regions, including tumor core, tumor border and adjacent non-tumor tissue.
Project description:The increased M-NM-1-smooth muscle-actin positive cancer-associated fibroblastic cells (CAF) in the desmoplastic stroma may relate to a more aggressive cancer and worse survival outcomes for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patients We developed a novel 3-D organotypic culture model by co-culturing M-NM-1-SMA positive CAF and cholangiocarcinoma cells in a collagen matrix. Cholangiocarcinoma cell lines were established by isolating M-NM-1-SMA positive cancer-associated fibroblastic cells (CAF) (BDEsp-TDFE4) and cholangiocarcinoma cells (BDEsp-TDEH10) from tumors arising from bile duct inoculation of spontaneously-transformed low grade malignant rat BDE1 cholangiocytes (BDEsp cells). These tumor-derived cells lines were then grown in a rat tail type I collagen gel matrix, alone or in co-culture, and their gene expression profile were compared.
