Project description:TRA2β4 is transcribed from the human transformer 2β(TRA2B) gene and overexpressed in colon cancer cells. Nucleolin is one of RNA-binding proteins to regulate cell survival and proliferation. In this study, TRA2β4 and Nucleolin levels were reduced in colon cancer HCT116 cells and gene expression levels were measured using microarray analysis.
Project description:To further explore the function and underlying mechanism of nucleolin in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), we compared the transcription profile of tetracycline (Tc)-inducible EGFP (as a control) or nucleolin siRNA expression-stable ESCs cultured with or without Tc for 3 days, and identified distinct classes of up- and down-regulated genes by nucleolin in mouse ESCs. Total RNA obtained from CGR8 ES cells stably integrated with Tc-inducible siRNA EGFP, nucleoin-1 or nucleolin-2 cultured with or without Tc for 3 days, and then hybridized to Illumina Sentrix Mouse-6 v2.0 BeadChips. Three replicates each condition.

Project description:Lamin A/C proteins, major components of the nuclear lamina, are encoded by the LMNA gene. These proteins have multiple cellular functions. LMNA has implications in cancer; however, its mechanisms of dysregulation in cancer cells are not yet fully understood. Among the LMNA transcript variants, we focused on a spliced variant 6 (termed LMNA-V6), which contains unique 3 exons upstream of exon 1 of LMNA. In this study, after LMNA-V6 levels were modulated by overexpression or silencing in colon cancer HCT116 cells, gene expression profiles were measured using microarray analysis.
