Project description:To identify a novel miRNA that is aberrantly expressed in GICs, we analyzed differences in miRNA expression between the mouse GICs, NSCL61 and OPCL61, showing characteristic features of cancer stem cell, and their parental cells by miRNA microarrays. neural stem cells, glioma-initiating cells (GICs) from neural stem cells, oligodendrocyte precursor cells, glioma-initiating cells (GICs) from oligodendrocyte precursor cells.
Project description:To identify a novel miRNA that is aberrantly expressed in GICs, we analyzed differences in miRNA expression between the human GICs and glioma cell lines and neural stem cells by miRNA microarrays. We examined the miRNA expression profiles of five human GICs that were obtained from human glioma samples and two human glioma cell lines, U87 and U251, and NSC (neural stem cells) as a control.

Project description:To find factors and pathways that Eva1 regulates in NSCL61 We identified Eva1 as a new factor expressed in glioma-initiating cells (GICs). Eva1 regulates the proliferation of GICs.
Project description:To identify factors involved in tumorigenicity of glioma-initiating cells (GICs), we compared gene expression in GIC-like cells with and without sox11 expression.
