Project description:This study aimed to investigate the metastasis-related prognostic gene signature in lung cancer. We started from the genowide miRNAs profiling of 16 lung adenocarcinoma cells. We identified that miR-10a* is an invasion-based prognostic gene in lung adenocarcinoma. Besides, we used expression beadsarray to identify the global gene alterations in HOP-62 cells after ectopic introducing miR-10a* and ectopic expressing HDAC5 genes.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs that function as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. miRNAs affect a variety of signaling pathways and impaired miRNA regulation may contribute to the development of cancer and other diseases. We show that miRNA miR-10a interacts with the 5' untranslated region of mRNAs encoding ribosomal proteins and enhances their translation. miR-10a alleviates translational repression of the ribosomal protein mRNAs during amino acid starvation and is required for their stress-mediated activation following anisomycin treatment. miR-10a binds immediately downstream of the regulatory 5' TOP motif and the 5´TOP is necessary for miR-10a translational enhancement. The results indicate that miR-10a may positively control global protein synthesis via stimulation of ribosomal protein mRNA translation and that the 5' TOP regulatory complex and miR-10a are functionally interconnected.
Project description:miR-10a has been shown to regulate proliferation and invasiveness of cancer cells and inflammatory responses of endothelial cells. The function of miR-10a in the skin has not been studied before. Here we examined miR-10a expression, regulation and functions in keratinocytes (KCs) in association with atopic dermatitis (AD).
Project description:41 lung adenocarcinoma from never-smokers hybridized on Illumina SNP arrays on 13 HumanCNV370-Quadv3 chips. High-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization analysis of lung adenocarcinoma in 41 never smokers for identification of new minimal common regions (MCR) of gain or loss. The SNP array analysis validated copy-number aberrations and revealed that RB1 and WRN were altered by recurrent copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity.The present study has uncovered new aberrations containing cancer genes. The oncogene FUS is a candidate gene in the 16p region that is frequently gained in never smokers. Multiple genetic pathways defined by gains of MYC, deletions of RB1 and WRN or gains on 7p and 7q are involved in lung adenocarcinoma in never smokers. A 'Cartes d'Identite des Tumeurs' (CIT) project from the French National League Against Cancer (http://cit.ligue-cancer.net) 41 samples hybridized on Illumina SNP arrays.

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.
