Project description:Analysis of Huh7 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells depleted for potassium channel KCa3.1, the intermediate conductance calcium-activated potassium channel. Result provide insight into the role of KCa3.1 in the carcinogenesis of HCC. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression differences between KCa3.1 knockdown and negative control in Huh7 HCC cells.
Project description:LncRNA and mRNA expression profiling of Hepatocellular carcinoma Huh7 when HINT1 knockdown. HINT1 is a novel tumor suppressor gene, which can regulate the transcription of a variety of cancer-related genes, and its regulation networks is poorly understood in hepatocellular carcinoma. We used the total RNA from siControl and siHINT1 Huh7 cells to analyze the differentially expressed lncRNA and mRNA which were regulated by HINT1, and further explored the ceRNA network that HINT1 may involved.
Project description:To identify genes regulated by STYK1 in hepatocellular carcinoma, we performed comprehensive analyses of mRNA expression in Huh7 cells overexpressed STYK1.
Project description:To investigate the significance of CD44+ hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) HuH7 cells, gene expression profiles of CD44-positive HuH7, CD44-negative HuH7, and human nomal hepatocyes were analyzed. Results provide the insight into the significance of CD44-positive HCC cells as the liver CSCs.
Project description:To investigate the significance of CD44+ hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) HuH7 cells, microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles of CD44-positive HuH7, CD44-negative HuH7, and human nomal hepatocyes were analyzed. Results provide the insight into the significance of CD44-positive HCC cells as the liver CSCs.
Project description:Analysis of Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell line - Huh7 deprived of glucose. Glucose restriction promotes a liver tumor-initating cell phenotype. Results provide insight into the molecular mechanism of glucose deprivation in HCC.
Project description:The Wnt signaling pathway is involved in many differentiation events during embryonic development and can lead to tumor formation after aberrant activation of its components. Β-catenin, a cytoplasmic component, plays a major role in the transduction of the canonical wnt/ β-catenin signaling. The aim of this study was to identify novel genes that are regulated by active β-catenin/TCF signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma. We selected and expanded isogenic clones from hepatocellular carcinoma-derived Huh7 cells with high and low β-catenin/TCF activities. We showed that, high TCF activity Huh7 cells lead to bigger and more aggressive tumors when xenografted into nude mice. We used SAGE (Serial Analysis of Gene Expression), genome-wide microarray and in silico promoter analysis in parallel, to compare gene expression between low (basal) and high (transfected) β-catenin/TCF activity clones, those had been xenografted into nude mice. We compared and contrasted SAGE and genome-wide microarray data, in parallel. Finally; after combined analysis, we identified BRI3 and HSF2 as novel targets of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma. Experiment Overall Design: High TCF activity Huh7 cell line (Huh7-S33Y) was compared to control Huh7 cell line (Huh7-Vec) by using 10 ug of total RNA isolated from each sample (15 ug of labeled cRNA was hybridized to the arrays). Triplicates are coming from same total RNA extraction.
Project description:To identify genes regulated by complex of NF90 and nuclear factor 45 (NF45) in hepatocellular carcinoma, we performed comprehensive analyses of mRNA expression in Huh7 cells depleted of NF90. mRNA expression profile in Huh7 cells depleted of NF90.
