Project description:To decipher molecular targets responsible for c-Kit mutant D816V mediated hematopoietic malignancy, we employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify important gene targets downstream of c-Kit mutant D816V expressing cells compared to wild-type c-Kit.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of pooled adult kidneys from transgenic zebrafish expressing human KIT-D816V mutant gene versus wild-type zebrafish was performed. The aim of this experiment was to determine the expression and cellular changes caused by expression of KIT-D816V oncogene in the hematopoietic organ in zebrafish. This transgenic zebrafish represents a model of systemic mastocytosis with many features of this disease present in adults
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of 28 hpf zebrafish transgenic expressing human KIT-D816V mutant gene versus wild-type embryos was performed. The aim of this experiment was to determine the expression changes caused by expression of KIT-D816V oncogene. This transgenic zebrafish represents a model of systemic mastocytosis with many features of this disease present in adults, but no very clear phenotypes in embryos. Thus, we attempted to determine if there are certain expression changes, which can be used as molecular features of active KIT expressed in these embryos.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of pooled adult kidneys from transgenic zebrafish expressing human KIT-D816V mutant gene versus wild-type zebrafish was performed. The aim of this experiment was to determine the expression and cellular changes caused by expression of KIT-D816V oncogene in the hematopoietic organ in zebrafish. This transgenic zebrafish represents a model of systemic mastocytosis with many features of this disease present in adults Two-condition experiment, Tg(actb2:KIT-D816V) versus wild-type(AB), one replicate of each prepared from 3 adult kidneys of each genotype and a dye-swap hybridization of these RNA samples.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of 28 hpf zebrafish transgenic expressing human KIT-D816V mutant gene versus wild-type embryos was performed. The aim of this experiment was to determine the expression changes caused by expression of KIT-D816V oncogene. This transgenic zebrafish represents a model of systemic mastocytosis with many features of this disease present in adults, but no very clear phenotypes in embryos. Thus, we attempted to determine if there are certain expression changes, which can be used as molecular features of active KIT expressed in these embryos. Two-condition experiment, Tg(actb2:KIT-D816V) versus wild-type(AB), 4 replicate experiments with a dye-swap each time
Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs. One-condition experment, gene expression of 3A6
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression. Two-condition experiment, Normoxic MSCs vs. Hypoxic MSCs.
