Project description:Colorectal cancer HT-29 cell line is a comonly-used human cancer cell line. We have used this cell line for examining the effect of various anticancer compounds on gene expression and we obtained gene expression data of untreated HT-29 cells as a control data for the analysis.
Project description:We analyzed, by HTA 2.0, colorectal adenocarcinoma samples and matched normal colonic tissues in order to determine the whole transcriptome expression levels. Three widely used colorectal cancer cell lines (Caco-2, HT-29,HCT-116), one human breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF-7) and one human prostate adenocarcinoma cell line (PC3) were also analyzed. Results provided insights into the regulation, at transcript level, of genes involved in copper homeostasis.

Project description:Bacillus subtilis strain R0179 is found in a number of commercially-available probiotic products. The mechanism(s) of action of B. subtilis in the host are poorly understood, but may involve the immune system response to switching between spore and vegetative forms. In order to help elucidate this mechanism, we challenged the immune response of a human colonic epithelial HT-29 cell model for 3 hours with the two forms of B. subtilis. The cellular response was evaluated using a custom-designed two-color expression microarray targeting 1354 genes of the human immune system. The data obtained in this study indicates that the vegetative cell form of the strain moderately induced TH1 pro-inflammatory response through IL-17C and TNF signaling pathway while down-regulating anti-inflammatory response genes IL-10 and TGFβ-2. The spore form had an opposite effect and acted primarily by down-regulating the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase pathway. The overall design consisted of 2 samples of HT-29 cells treated with Bacillus subtilis R0179 spores or vegetative states versus unchallenged HT-29 cells. A minimum of four dye-swap hybridizations (4 biological replicates) were performed for each of the 2 samples analyzed. Unchallenged HT-29 cells were controls and challenged HT-29 cells with Bacillus subtilis R0179 spores or vegetative were treated samples.
Project description:Cell proliferation assay and flow cytometric analysis were used to examine the effects of SCS treatment on viability and apoptosis of colon cancer cell HT-29 cells and normal colonic epithelial cell NCM460 cells. Transcriptomic and proteomic studies were used to identify the main targets of SCS. SCS showed little effect on the gene expression profile of NCM460 cells whereas188 genes and 10 proteins were differentially regulated in HT-29 cells after SCS treatment. Enrichment analysis of those genes / proteins showed that majority of them are involved in DNA replication, cell cycle progression, and apoptosis.
