Project description:We report the differential expression of circRNAs between T-BEAS-2B cells (cadmium-transformed BEAS-2B cells) and C-BEAS-2B cells (passage-matched control BEAS-2B cells) by high-throughput sequencing. T-BEAS-2B cells are BEAS-2B cells transformed by cadmium at 2.0 μM for twenty weeks, and C-BEAS-2B cells are their passage-matched control. RNAs were sequenced on Illumina HiSeq Xten platform in triplicates, and expressions of circRNAs were calculated by TPM (transcripts per kilobase of exon model per million mapped reads). Clean data per sample exceeds 10 GB. We find 235 significantly up-regulated circRNAs and 271 significantly down-regulated circRNAs in T-BEAS-2B cells relative to C-BEAS-2B cells. Our work provides clues and evidence for exploring the mechanism of circRNAs in cadmium carcinogenesis.
Project description:MicroRNA levels in non-transformed BEAS-2B bronchial epithelial cells, two lines of mycoplasma transformed BEAS-2B cells, and A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells were measured. Microarray analyses of 1145 microRNAs in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells and two other transformed lung cell types relative to BEAS-2B bronchial epithelial cells were performed. 106 miRNAs were down-regulated and 69 miRNAs were up-regulated in all three transformed lines
Project description:The objective of this study was to determine binding patterns for GR, 65 and RNAP2 in Beas-2B airway epithelial cells after treatment with dexamethasone (100 nm), TNF (20 ng/ml) or both for one hour. This study utilized duplicate samples for each treatment condition and immunoprecipitation except for p65 immunoprcipitation of TNF treated samples, which was analyzed as a single sample. Input from vehicle treated cells was used a control. Experimental comparisons were made between the following samples/ treatment conditions. Duplicate samples of Beas-2B cells treated with ethanol (vehicle) were used for ChIP of GR, p65, and RNAP2 (2 samples each antibody). Duplicate samples of Beas-2B cells treated with dexamethasone were used for ChIP of GR and RNAP2 (2 samples each antibody). Duplicate samples of Beas-2B cells treated with TNF were used for ChIP of p65 and RNAP2 (1 sample p65, 2 samples RNAP2). Duplicate samples of Beas-2B cells treated with dexamethasone + TNF were used for ChIP of GR, p65 and RNAP2 (2 samples each antibody).
