Project description:To investigate the chemokines expressed by the KP cancer line and to compare it to chemokines expressed in lung tissues upon inoculation of KP tumor cells
Project description:YAP depletion in the KP tumor system results in smaller tumors and delayed tumor latency. We used microarrays to investigate changes in global gene expression due to YAP1 loss in KP tumors
Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs. Two-condition experiment, KP MSCs vs. 3A6 MSCs.
Project description:Purpose: determine RNA expression differences in an unbiased fashion between UPS tumors derived from LSL-KrasG12D;Trp53-/- (KP) mice, and UPS tumors derived from LSL-KrasG12D;Trp53-/-;Epas1-/- (KPH2) mice. Epas1 encodes HIF-2alpha protein. RNA-seq was performed on KP (n = 4) and KPH2 (n = 4) derived UPS tumors using Illumina HiSeq 2000.
