Project description:To clarify the effect of miRNAs, we carried out a gene expression microarray analysis using GIST-T1 cells transfected with a miR-335 mimic or a negative control. We found that 1,095 probe sets (853 unique genes) were downregulated (>1.5-fold) by ectopic miR-335 expression. GIST-T1 cells were transfected with a mirVana miR-335 mimic (Ambion) or a mirVana miRNA mimic Negative Control #1 (Ambion). Forty-eight hours after transfection, total RNA extraction was carried out, and gene expression signatures were analyzed.
Project description:To clarify the effect of miRNAs, we carried out a gene expression microarray analysis using GIST-T1 cells transfected with a miR-34a mimic or a negative control. We found that 2,621 probe sets (1,933 unique genes) were downregulated (>1.5-fold) by ectopic miR-34a expression, including PDGFRA gene which was previously reported as a miR-34a target gene. GIST-T1 cells were transfected with a mirVana miR-34a mimic (Ambion) or mirVana miRNA mimic Negative Control #1 (Ambion). Forty-eight hours after transfection, total RNA extraction was carried out, and gene expression signatures were analyzed.

Project description:To clarify the role of miR-186 in GIST, we carried out a gene expression microarray analysis using GIST-T1 cells transfected with a miR-186 inhibitor or a negative control. We found that 253 probe sets (229 unique genes) were upregulated (>1.5-fold) by inhibition of miR-186 in GIST-T1 cells.
Project description:miR-34a and miR-34c were found up-regulated at wound-edges of human venous ulcer compared to nomal wound and the intact skin; however their biological role in keratinocytes during wound repair has not been studied. To study the genes regulated by miR-34a and miR-34c, we transfected miR-34a and miR-34c mimic into human primary epidermal keratinocytes to overexpress them. We performed a global transcriptome analysis of keratinocytes upon overexpression of miR-34a or miR-34c using Affymetrix arrays.
Project description:miR-34a is strongly induced upon TPA-induced megakaryocyte differentiation of K562 cells. To investigate the gene networks regulated by this miRNA during the process of differentiation we performed gene microarray analysis in K562 cells overexpressing miR-34a or a control sequence. Experiment Overall Design: K562 cells were transfected by nucleofection (Amaxa) with a miR-34a mimic (Dharmacon) or a control sequence with no homology to human genes. 24 hours post-transfection total RNA was extracted using trizol and hybridized on Affimetrix microarrays for comparing gene expression.
