Project description:Fbw7 plays a negative role in pancreatic cancer tumorigenesis and progression. To further clarify the function and mechanism that Fbw7 plays in pancreatic cancer,mRNA microarray assays were performed to identify the genes and signaling pathways that were changed upon Fbw7 overexpression. Fbw7 overexpressing SW1990 cells were cultured for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix mRNA microarrays. These were compared against the control,which were infected by empty control lentiviral particles.
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 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.
