Project description:The WWOX gene is a tumor suppressor probably involved in regulation of cell cycle and apoptosis and downregulated in variety of cancer types.However, its role in colon cancerogenesis is unknown. The aim of this study was to characterize how WWOX may be involved in colon cancerogenesis or cancer progression, how it influences the basic cancer cell features and modifies cell expression profile.Our observations suggest that in HT29 colon cancer cell line increased expression of WWOX may result in transition of cancer cells into more normal- like colon epithelium phenotype, on the other hand in SW480 WWOX revealed the well-known tumour suppressor properties. However, as the colon cancer is very heterogeneous disease, obtained discrepancies may reflect the known differences between cell lines and cancerogenesis pathway, which they undergone. SW480 colon cancer cells were stably transfected with WWOX cDNA. SW480 cells transfected with an empty vector served as a control. Total mRNA was isolated to look for gene-expression differences induced by the WWOX overexpression.

Project description:SW480 colon cancer cell line RNA sequencing
Project description:To compare lncRNAs and mRNAs expression profiles in colon cancer after co-cultured with CB and without CB, we extracted total RNA of colon cancer cell line(SW480) after co-cultured with CB(SW480/CB) and paired control without CB(SW480/ctr), and identified the dysregulated lncRNAs and mRNAs using Agilent Human lncRNAs/mRNAs microarrays.
Project description:Two isogenic human colorectal cancer cell lines (primary SW480 cell line and its lymph node metastatic variant SW620 cell line),as an in vitro metastatic model. We have demonstrated that SW620 cell line possesses high metastasis potential and SW480 cell linepossesses low metastatic potential. We want to compare the whole cell microRNAs profiles of two isogenic colorectal cancer cell lines (SW480 and SW620 cell line), to gain an insight into the molecular events of colon cancer metastasis.
