Project description:Expression of the transcription factor CEBPD is induced at early stages of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response. In order to identify the genes modulated by CEBPD during the ER stress response, we transiently silenced CEBPD expression in MDA-MB-435 melanoma cells and isolated mRNA at 6 h of treatment with Thapsigargin or DMSO control. As control, cells were transfected with two different control siRNA oligonucleotides. Results provide insights into which genes are modulated by CEBPD and/or Thapsigargin in MDA-MB-435 cell
Project description:1. Quantitative Proteomics: MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, and MCF12A cells were treated with DMSO (vehicle control) or SU056 (novel small molecule drug candidate). Quantitative proteomics analysis was performed on cell lysates. 2. Cellular Thermal Shift Assay (CETSA): MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with DMSO or SU056 and incubated at different temperatures and protein differences in the resulting soluble and insoluble fractions were determined.3. Cellular Thermal Shift Assay (CETSA): MDA-MB-231 YBOX1 KD cells were treated with DMSO or SU056 and incubated at different temperatures and protein differences in the soluble fractions were determined.
Project description:MDA-MB-435 breast cancer cells were treated with 2ME2 (2 µM) or vehicle alone. RNA was extracted and genomic profiling was performed using 22k Agilent microarrays. Experiment Overall Design: MDA-MB-435 breast cancer cells were treated with 2ME2 (2 µM) or vehicle alone. RNA was extracted and genomic profiling was performed using 22k Agilent microarrays.

Project description:Purpose:Assess the difference in gene expression of taxol-resistant TNBC cells relative to parental cells (MDA-MB-436 and HS 578t) Methods: RNA-seq was performed on paclitaxel-treated MDA-MB-436 cells that are resistant to Paclitaxel (R20A, R20B, R20C) and in control-treated (DMSO) parental MDA-MB-436 cells that are sensitive to Paclitaxel (DMSO) Results: We mapped about 20 million sequence reads per sample to the human genome (hg19) and identified identified differentially expressed genes Conclusions: Our study identified genes significantly enriched or repressed in taxol-resistant cells relative to parental cells in both TNBC models (MDA_MB-436 and HS 578T)
Project description:To investigate the effects of disrupting Cu homeostasis on MDA-MB-468 cells in vitro, we treated cells with DCAC50, tetrathiomolybdate, or DMSO (control) or sDMEM for 24 hours
