Genome-wide expression profiling of SGTA knockdown in C4-2B prostate cancer cells

ABSTRACT: Identifying the effect of the co-chaperone SGTA on global androgen receptor transcriptional activity in C4-2B prostate cancer cells with view to further elucidating the broader biological role of SGTA on other signaling pathways within prostate cancer cells Knockdown of SGTA for 72 hours in C4-2B cells significantly altered the expression of approximately 1900 genes in both vehicle and DHT treated cells. The effect of SGTA knockdown was to suppress the expression of approximately 60% of those transcripts. The regulation of 35% of DHT target genes was also affected by SGTA knockdown, with gene-specific effects on basal, or DHT-induced expression, or both. C4-2B cells were transfected with 5nM non-specific control siRNA (NS) or with a pool of three commercially avaliable SGTA specific siRNA
