Project description:To investigate the impact of the mRNA stabilty factor HuR on the pancreatic cancer transcriptome in MIA PaCa-2 in vitro cell line and in vivo tumors at multiple time points of tumor growth
Project description:RNA binding protein, Human Antigen R (HuR/ELAVL1), regulates mRNA stability of key species involved in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cell survival under conditions of chemotherapeutic stress, hypoxia, low glucose environment. We used RNA immunoprecipitation-microarray or RNP-IP from cytoplasmic extracts of PDAC cell lines exposed to chemotherpaeutic stress (olaparib and gemcitabine) to evaluate whole transcriptome gene expression profile associated with HuR and find novel trargtes associated with DNA repair functions of HuR.
Project description:Integrative regulatory mapping indicates that the RNA-binding protein HuR (ELAVL1) couples pre-mRNA processing and mRNA stability In this dataset, we employed two distinct experiments. 1) HuR RIP-chip to identify mRNA targets of HuR. 2) HuR knockdown to identify mRNAs whose expression are dependent on HuR.

All 12 samples were normalized with PLIER using Affymetrix power tools. To identify RNA targets of HuR, HuR RIP samples were compared to Mock RIP samples. To identify RNA regulated by HuR, HuR knockdown samples were compared to mock knockdown samples.
Project description:Purpose: To determine biological impact between silencing HuR and YAP1, in MIA-PaCa2. Methods: Expression profiling of MIA-PaCa2 cells knocked-down for HuR and YAP1 and control cells transfected with scramble siRNA.
Project description:mRNA expression data from RalGAPβ-deficient human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells (MIA PaCa-2), MIA PaCa-2 parental cells, and MIA PaCa-2 control cells
Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, caused by activating mutation in K-Ras, is an aggressive malignancy due to its early invasion and matastasis. Ral GTPases, negatively regulated by RalGAP, are activated downstream of Ras and play a crucial role in development and progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying the human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell line, MIA PaCa-2 with RalGAPβ deficiency or not, and identified distinct classes of Ral activation-related mRNA.
