Project description:Transcription profiling by high throughput sequencing of retinoic acid treated human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells and normal cells
Project description:To compare the differential gene expression between oral squamous cancer cells stably overexpression of miR-34a and cells transfected with control vectors.
Project description:Some microRNAs have antiproliferative effects in cells and are believed to act as tumour suppressors. We used a retroviral human microRNA expression library to identify six microRNAs, miR-181a, miR-323, miR-326, miR-342, miR345 and miR-371, that induce antiproliferative effects in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), but do not in normal oral keratinocytes. By gene expression profilling we showed that the ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene is a common target for three of these microRNAs. Transcriptional profilling of head and neck cancer cells comparing transiently transfected with either one of the six miRNAs to the cells transfected with a control vector. One-condition experiment, ctrl vs miRNA transfected, Biological replicates: 2 replicates for each miRNA transfected, 4 replicates for ctrl transfected
Project description:micro-RNA in cancer-associated fibroblasts in oral squamous cell carcinoma vs. dysplasia-associated fibroblasts from dysplastic oral lesions vs. normal fibroblasts from normal oral mucosa from healthy individual.
Project description:Melanoma inhibitory activity (MIA) gene family is novel tumor-associated molecules. Although MIA gene family has several tumor progressive and/or suppressive functions, the detailed relevant signaling partners are unclear and investigated. In this study, we investigated the detailed MIA gene family-associated signaling using human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells. Human oral squamous cell carcinoma-derived HSC3 cells were transfected withãcontrol, MIA, MIA2, TANGO, MATE2, or LEMD1 siRNA. The effect on geneãknockdown was evaluated by cDNA microarray.
