Project description:To identify potential CBX2-regulated genes in ER positive cancer cells we assessed global gene expression changes in CBX2-depleted MCF-7 cells by RNA-sequencing analysis using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform. Through Gene Set Enrichment Analysis we identified that CBX2 promotes cell growth, mTORC1 activation, E2F signalling.
Project description:To identify potential CBX2-regulated genes in triple negative breast cancer cells we assessed global gene expression changes in CBX2-depleted MDA-MB-231 cells by RNA-sequencing analysis using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform. Through Gene Set Enrichment Analysis we identified that CBX2 promotes cell growth, mTORC1 activation, E2F signalling and inhibits RBL2-mediated DREAM-complex activity.
Project description:CBX2 regulates the tumor immune microenvironment of high grade serous carcinoma. Through genetic knockdown and overexpression, we discovered that CBX2 regulates immune regulated genes, promotes macrophage polarization, and phagocytosis.
Project description:MCF-7 is an estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cell line. This experiment is designed to study (1) the effect of estradiol (E2) exposure and (2) lysine methyltransferase 2B (KMT2B) knockdown in MCF-7 cells. Cells were grown for 72 hours prior to treatment with vehicle or 10 nM E2 for 4 and 24 hours. Additionally, to assess the effect of KMT2B knockdown, MCF-7 cells were transfected with KMT2B targeting siRNA or scrambled control siRNA in the absence or presence of E2. RNA were isolated using Trizol and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 array.
Project description:SETD1A is a histone H3K4 methyltransferase and function as a coactivator for nuclear receptors (NRs) and other transcription factors. We performed genome-wide gene expression analysis in non-specific siRNA transfected or SETD1A knockdown MCF-7 cells to investigate global gene expression changes induced by SETD1A knockdown.
Project description:SIRT1 is a nuclear NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase. Expression microarray analysis was used to study the effect of SIRT1 knockdown on gene expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.
Project description:NAMPT is an enzyme in the mammalian NAD+ salvage pathway. Expression microarray analysis was used to study the effect of NAMPT knockdown on gene expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.
Project description:NMNAT1 is a nuclear enzyme in the mammalian NAD+ salvage pathway. Expression microarray analysis was used to study the effect of NMNAT1 knockdown on gene expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.
