Project description:YAP1 (Yes-associated protein 1) and TAZ (transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif, or WWTR1) are nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling proteins that can function in the nucleus as transcriptional coactivators. Here we sought to evaluate which genes are regulated by endogenous levels of YAP/TAZ. We compared SK-N-MC cells transfected with a control non-targeting siRNA with cells transfected with a mix of siRNA targeting both YAP and TAZ.
Project description:This dataset comprises trnscriptome data of two Ewing sarcoma cell lines (SK-N-MC and TC-71) after re-expression of the gene TCF7L1
Project description:Promoting rumen development is closely related to the health and efficient growth of ruminants. In the present study, we aimed to assess the impact of YAP1/TAZ on RE proliferation. The transcriptomic expression was analyzed to investigate the potential regulatory networks. The results indicated that GA promoted RE cell proliferation, while VP disrupted RE cell proliferation. The Hippo, Wnt, and calcium signaling pathways were altered in cells following the regulation of YAP1/TAZ. Upon YAP1/TAZ activation through GA, the CCN1/2 increased to promote RE cell proliferation. While when the YAP1/TAZ was inhibited by VP, the BIRC3 decreased to suppress RE cell proliferation. Thus, YAP1/TAZ may be potential targets for regulating RE cell proliferation. These findings broaden our understanding of the role of YAP1/TAZ and their regulators in RE and offer a potential target for promoting rumen development.
Project description:The Hippo signaling pathway is evolutionarily well conserved, and all core components have one or more mammalian orthologs, including MST1/2 (Hippo), SAV1 (Salvador), LATS1/2 (Warts), MOB1 (Mats), YAP1/TAZ (Yorkie), and TEAD1/2/3/4 (Scalloped) (Halder and Johnson, 2011; Pan, 2007; Dong et al., 2007; Saucedo and Edgar, 2007). When Hippo signaling is active, YAP1/TAZ is phosphorylated by LATS1/2 and sequestered by 14-3-3 proteins in cytoplasm. When Hippo signaling is absent, unphosphorylated YAP1/TAZ enters the nucleus and increases transcriptional activation of genes involved in cell proliferation and survival. The indispensability of the Hippo pathway in restricting cell growth and proliferation has prompted speculation that many members of the pathway might be involved in tumorigenesis. To see the effect of YAP1 and TAZ in HCC cell, we generated gene expression profile.

Project description:Hippo signaling pathway is pivotally involved in human cancer. Among the Hippo components, YAP1 is highly active while function of MST1,2 and SAV1 was lost in liver cancer. Based on systematic analysis, we identified KLF5 as YAP1 binding partner in silico. To investigate KLF5 in liver cancer, we performed the gene expression microarray after knocked down YAP1, TEAD1 and KLF5 in SK-Hep1 cell line. To identify the role of YAP1, TEAD1 and KLF5 in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, we performed microarray after knocking down YAP1, TEAD1 and KLF5 in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (3 siLuc, 3 siYAP1, 3 siTEAD1, 3 siKLF5)
Project description:Analysis of differentially expressed genes in wild type SK-ES1 Ewing Sarcoma cells when compared to SK-ES1 Ewing Sarcoma cells that received six 4 Gy fractions (cumulative dose of 24 Gy) of ionizing radiation (radiation-adapted cell line). The hypothesis tested being that repeated ionizing radiation exposure of modifies radiation therapy response in Ewing Sarcoma.
Project description:Primary pediatric Ewing sarcoma (ES), one uncharacterized sarcoma as well as primary and well established ES cell lines were compared to probes of different normal tissues 8 Ewing sarcoma patient samples (MuET-x), 3 primary ES cell lines (SB-KMS-y), 3 well established ES cell lines (A673, SK-N-MC, RD-ES) and 22 normal tissues (PBMC, spleen, thymus, stomach, ...., uterus, fetal brain, fetal liver) were analyzed.
