Project description:YAP1 plays importance roles in development of colorectal cancer as evidenced by their overexpression in colorectal cancer and their expression promoted cell proliferation and survival of colorectal cancer cells. In order to understand potential roles of YAP1 in colorectal cancer, we over-expressed constitutively active YAP1 mutant in NCI-H716 colorectal cancer cells and identified and analyzed genes whose expression is activated by YAP1 activation in colorectal cancer. Pre-clinical study

Project description:The YAP pathway in regulating organ size by integrating external signals to control the expression of genes involved in cell proliferation. YAP is known to be involved in tumorigenesis in several tissues, yet its role in cholangiocarcinoma is not established We used microarrays to assess the role of YAP pathway in cholangiocarcinoma either by overexpressing a constitutively active YAP1 mutant, or by downregulating YAP1 expression using shRNA HuCCT1 cells where transfected with either an empty vector or a vector overexpressing the constitutively active YAP1 S127A; cells were harvested, RNA was collected and analyzed using microarray

Project description:BORIS expresses abnormally in colorectal cancer cells. Both the expression and the copy number of BORIS are remarkably higher in colorectal cancer cells than in normal colon or rectal cells. BORIS is potential diagnosis, prognosis or therapeutic target for colorectal cancer. To expand our view of the signaling pathway related with BORIS, altered gene expression by BORIS knockdown was assessed by microarray assay. To study the gene regulation by BORIS knockdown, microarray assay was applied to screen the gene expression regulated by BORIS siRNA in colorectal cancer cells HCT116 and Caco-2
Project description:Transgelin was the top-ranked marker of metastatic potential identified in the comparison of node-positive colorectal cancer (CRC) versus node-negative CRC in our previous study. Transgelin is localized in the nucleus of cultured CRC cells and microRNA-mediated knockdown of TAGLN (the gene encoding transgelin) expression modulates the expression of genes involved in the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. We performed gene expression profiling on control and transgelin-overexpressing RKO cells using Affymetrix microarray technology.
Project description:Our previous study showed the immunosuppressive ability of colorectal cancer cell-intrinsic ATP6V0A1. This project aimed to understand the mechanism of ATP6V0A1 regulating immune evasion in colorectal cancer (CRC). For this purpose, we used MS analysis to detect the changes in the protein expression profile induced by Atp6v0a1 knockdown in MC38 cells.
