Project description:FOXA1 is a transcription factor which aids AR function in prostate. There is controversary over the effect of high FOXA1 level has on prostate cancer so we forced the overexpression in the LNCaP prostate cancer cell line. LNCaP prostate cancer cell line was transfected with GFP control plasmid or plasmid containing FOXA1 full length cDNA. The effect on gene expression was assessed by microarray.

Project description:FoxA1 has been shown critical for prostate development and prostate-specific gene expression regulation. In addition to its well-established role as an AR pioneering factor,several studies have recently revealed significant AR binding events in prostate cancer cells with FoxA1 knockdown. Furthermore, the role of FoxA1 itself in prostate cancer has not been carefully examined. Thus, it is important to understand the role of FoxA1 in prostate cancer and how it interacts with AR signaling. To address these questions, we generated engineered LNCaP cells with FoxA1 knockdown using shRNA or siRNA, 22RV1 cells with stable FoxA1 knockdown and PC3M cells with FoxA1 stable overexpression. We performed microarray analysis of these cells. We performed microarray analysis on LNCaP cells with FoxA1 knockdown using shRNA or siRNA, 22RV1 cells with stable FoxA1 knockdown and PC3M cells with FoxA1 stable overexpression
