Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human hTERT-RPE1 cell spheroids comparing Control siRNA transfected hTERT-RPE1 cell spheroids with those transfected with YAP1 siRNA. Two-condition experiment, Control siRNA vs.YAP1 siRNA hTERT-RPE1 cell spheroids. Biological replicates: 1 Control siRNA, 1YAP1 siRNA transfected, independently grown and harvested. Bothreplicates per array.
Project description:Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) is an effector of Hippo pathway, which is critical for regulating organ size, cell proliferation and tumor growth in mammals. YAP1 is known to be involved in tumorigenesis in several tissues, yet its role in colorectal cancer(CRC) is not established. To investigate the effect of YAP1 in CRC, we used microarrays to compared human colon cancer cell line HCT116 transfected with a control non-targeting siRNA to cells and transfected with siRNA targeting YAP1.
Project description:Gene expression was compared between hTERT-RPE1 cells and hTERT-RPE1 cells stably overexpressing mouse MFRP with an N-terminal GFP fusion. RNA was prepared from hTERT-RPE1 cells overexpressing GFP-MFRP and control cells. Both conditions were done in triplicate. Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133Plus2.0 arrays were used to interrogate changes in gene expression. Image data were quantified with Affymetrix Expression Console Software and normalized with Robust Multichip Analysis.
Project description:Gene-expression in siRNA treated U2OS and hTERT-RPE1 cells showed that CASP8AP2, NPAT and HINFP do not regulate expression of each other, and do not have any common target genes, except histones. Most histone genes are downregulated in U2OS cells following loss of CASP8AP2, NPAT or HINFP. In normal cells, highly-expressed histone genes were downregulated, albeit less than in tumor cells following loss of CASP8AP2. The p53 target genes were upregulated relatively late, clearly after the changes in expression of histone genes were observed. U2OS and hTERT-RPE1 cells were treated with CASP8AP2, NPAT, HINFP or control siRNA in duplicates or triplicates and collected for RNA purification on 1st, 2nd and 3d days.

Project description:RNA-seq upon MYCN activation in the hTERT-immortalized MYCN retinal pigmented epithelial cell line (RPE1–MYCN-ER). The parental hTERT-immortalized retinal pigment epithelium (hTERT-RPE1) was used as a control as this cell line does not carry the MYCN:ER expression construct. Both cell lines were treated with tamoxifen (400nM; 4-OHT) for MYCN induction (with 4-OHT or not). Analysis was performed 24 h, 48 h and 72 h upon MYCN activation, including four biological replicates per condition.
