Project description:Breast cancer invasive growth, metastasis and therapeutic resistance affects the clinical ourcome. We explored the epigenetic mechanisms that control these process in breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231 by knocking down a lysine specific demethylase KDM3A We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process. Human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 was infected with scramble or KDM3A shRNA. After selection, the cells were used for microarray analysis.
