Project description:Our work demonstrated that miR-124 regulates fatty acid and triglyceride homeostasis. We used microarrays to detail the effect of miR-124 on hepatic gene expression, and, within downregulated genes, identified an enrichment for genes involved in lipid metabolism.
Project description:Our work demonstrated that PPAR-α regulates miR-7, a microRNA which regulates SREBP1 signaling. We used microarrays to detail the effect of miR-7 on hepatic gene expression, and, within activated genes, identified an enrichment for genes with SREBP1 binding sites in their promoters.
Project description:Our work demonstrated that 25-hydroxycholesterol induces the expression of miR-185, a microRNA which reinforces the oxysterol's antiviral effects on hepatic metabolism. We used microarrays to detail the effect of miR-185 on hepatic gene expression, and, within repressed genes, identified an enrichment for genes associated with cholesterol biosynthesis.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human hepatoma cell lines comparing control uninfected Huh7.5 cells with Huh7.5 cells persistently infected with HCV (HPI cell). The latter maintains and produces HCV.
Project description:Huh7.5 cells, when grown in presence of 1-2mg/ml of Geneticin, generarated colonies with cells that were morphologically distinct from the parental cells. These cells were substantially smaller in size, had spindle like features and grew faster. They expressed mesenchymal markers and were named as Huh7.5M cells.

Project description:A microarray experiment was performed to investigate changes in gene expression induced in the Huh7.5 hepatoma cell line following treatment for 24 hours with recombinant human Bone Morphogenetic Protein 6 (BMP6) (18 nM).
Project description:Hepatitis C Virus protein NS5A was found to upregulate assembly of cap binding initiation complex eIF4F in Huh7.5 cells. NS5A also was found to associate with translation machinery. To understand consequences of NS5A mediation in host translation, we analyzed mRNA associated with polysome fractions of NS5A expressing Huh7.5 cells and compared them with the corresponding fractions from control cells.
