Project description:The role of Eph/ephrin signaling in numerous biological processes has been established. However, Eph/ephrin signaling has been shown to have complex role in tumor progression. The role of EphB2 receptor in the progression of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) has not been studied before. EphB2 is significantly overexpressed in cSCC cells compared with normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs). We used microarray based global gene expression profiling to study the effect of EphB2 knockdown on the expression of different genes in cSCC cells. cSCC cell lines (n=3) were transfected with either control or EphB2 siRNA (75 nM) and incubated for 72 hours. Total RNA was extracted and processed expression profiling with GeneChip 3’ IVT Express Kit according to manufacturer’s protocol.

Project description:EphB2 promotes progression of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
Project description:Keratinocyte-derived cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the most common metastatic skin cancer, and its incidence is increasing globally. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in various biological processes, and their role in cancer progression is emerging. Whole transcriptome analysis of cSCC cells (n=8) and normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs, n=4) revealed overexpression of long intergenic ncRNA (LINC00162) in cSCC cells (GSE66412). We wanted to futher study the RNA expression profile of LINC00162 knockdown cSCC cells. Based on our observations, LINC00162 was named PICSAR (P38 Inhibited Cutaneous Squamous cell carcinoma Associated lincRNA).

Whole transcriptome analysis of cSCC cell lines (n=8) and normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs, n=4) revealed overexpression of long intergenic ncRNA (LINC00346) in cSCC cells (GSE66412). We wanted to futher study the RNA expression profile of LINC00346 knockdown cSCC cells. Based on our observations, LINC00346 was named PRECSIT (p53 regulated carcinoma-associated STAT3-activating long intergenic non-protein coding transcript).
