Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in mouse 4T1 mammary tumors expressing Cebpb shRNA, compared to 4T1 tumors expressing control shRNA. Analysis of mouse 4T1 mammary tumors expressing Cebpb shRNA compared to control shRNA are further described in Johansson & Berg et al 2012.
Project description:4T1 mouse mammary carcinoma cells have an autocrine FGFR active loop leading to constitutive activation of downstream signaling pathways. We found that FGFR inhibitors have a strong effect on 4T1 tumors in-vivo. We used microarray to understand the contribution of FGFR signaling to the tumor formation upon TKI258 treatment. 4T1 cells were injected in the 4th mammary gland of Balb/C mice. After 7 days, daily treatment with TKI258 or water was performed for 14 days. At the end of the experiment, the RNA were extracted from three individual tumors per condition and hybridized on Affimetrix microarrays.

Analysis of mouse 4T1 mammary tumors expressing Cebpb shRNA compared to control shRNA are further described in Johansson & Berg et al 2012. A 10 chip study using total RNA recovered from five separate 4T1 tumors expressing Cebpb shRNA and five separate 4T1 tumors expressing control shRNA. All tumors were surgically removed after subcutaneous implantation in syngeneic BALB/c mice two weeks earlier. Each chip measures the expression level of 44,170 genes from Mus Musculus with fourteen 24-mer probe pairs (PM/MM) per gene, with three-fold technical redundancy.
