Project description:To study the impact of TGF signaling on the transcriptome of vascular smooth muscle cells, we cultured human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells as 3D aggregates in hanging drops for 48 hours. One group was treated with TGFβRI/II inhibitor LY2109761 (10 μM, additional 10 μM after 24 h), the other group with solvent (DMSO) as control. RNA was isolated from both groups after 48h
Project description:3D cultivation of cells lead to changes in morphology of the cells. This is likely to explain the higher radioresistance of cells growing in 3D compared to cells growing in 2D cell culture. Whole genome gene expression is performed to determine genes involved in changes of cell moroholgy and radioresistance. Keywords: comparison of 2D vs. 3D cell culture

Keywords: comparison of 2D vs. 3D cell culture RNA of cells was isolated four days after growing in the two different cell culture systems
Project description:Prospective, open labelled, multicenter trial to evaluate the feasibility of ex vivo culture 3D (chemogram obtaining) on biopsies in order to estimate the predictive value of this technique for treatment response in patients treated by two different chemotherapies (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) for colorectal cancer.
Project description:The naive CD4 T cell compartment is heterogeneous. Ly-6C- and Ly-6C+ Naive CD4 T cells were compare by microarrays. Ly-6C- and Ly-6C+ Naive CD4 T cells were purified for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:To investigate the differential transcriptomics upon DMT1 in 2D vs 3D cell culture in breast cancer cells Gene expression analysis from MDA-MB-231 RNA-seq data of WT and DMT1 KO cells both in 2D and 3D cell culture conditions
Project description:* To compare surgical and oncological outcomes in patients underwent to colorectal resection with 3D vs 2D laparoscopic technique.
* To evaluate the visual overload in surgeons using 3D laparoscopic technique.
Project description:To study the impact of the organotypic assembly of vascular smooth muscle cells on their transcriptome, we cultured human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells under 2D conditions and as aggregates in hanging drops under 3D conditions. After 48 hours, RNA was isolated from both groups
