Project description:The hypothesis that male michrochimerism in eutopic endometrium is a factor for endometriosis, as indicated by indirect evidence was examined in endometrial samples from control (Group 1) and stage IV ovarian endometriosis (Group 2), either fertile (Group 1A and 2A) or Infertile (Group 1B and 2B) pateints. 6 coding and 10 non-coding genes showed bi-modal pattern of expression characterised by low expression in samples obtained from fertile patients and high expressions in infertile patients. Several coding and non-coding MSY-linked genes displayed michrochimerism in form of presence of their respective DNA inserts along with their microarray-detectable expression in endometrium irrespective of fertility history and disease.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression. Two-condition experiment, Normoxic MSCs vs. Hypoxic MSCs.
Project description:The aim of the present study was to study the proteomic profile of eutopic endometrium from patients with endometriosis vs. healthy controls

Project description:We performed gene expression analysis human peritoneal endometriosis lesions, eutopic endometrium from endometriosis patients and peritoneum form endometriosis patients.The goal of the study was to analyse gene expression differences between peritoneal endometriosis lesion and eutopic endometrium and peritoneal endometriosis lesion and peritoneum.
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:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
