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:BEAS-2B cells are human bronchial epithelial cells, and often used as a in vitro model for the detection of potential pulmonary toxicity of chemicals. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes after treated with chemical substance

Project description:We used mass spectrometry to profile changes in metabolites, proteins, and phosphorylation in silica-exposed BEAS-2B epithelial cells.

Project description:Copper induced stress is known to involve an enhanced oxidant production. This event could be accompanied by an antioxidant response. However, additional processes transcriptionally regulated might participate in the protective response against the metal ions. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression due to the copper overload and outline the cell processes mostly involved in the toxicity of the metal ions in two cell lines, BEAS-2B cells and HCT116 cells.
Project description:We established chromate transformed cell lines by chronic exposure of normal human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells to low doses of hexavalent chromium followed by anchorage-independent growth. The gene expression profiles were analyzed in the established cell lines. The gene expression profiles from six chromate transformed cell lines were remarkably similar to each other yet differed significantly from that of either control cell line or normal Beas-2B cells. A total of 409 differentially expressed genes were identified in chromate transformed cells compared to control cells.
