Project description:The role of TGF-M-NM-2-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer cell dissemination is well established, but the involvement of lncRNAs in TGF-M-NM-2 signaling is still unknown. In this study, we observed that the lncRNA-Activated by TGF-M-NM-2 (lncRNA-ATB) was upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) metastases and associated with poor prognosis. lncRNA-ATB promotes the invasion-metastasis cascade, which suggest that lncRNA-ATB, a mediator of TGF-M-NM-2 signaling, could predispose HCC patients to metastases and may serve as a potential target for anti-metastatic therapies. SMMC-7721 hepatoma cells were continuously treated with 10 ng/ml of recombinant TGF-M-NM-21 for 21 days. Total RNA recovered from three untreated cells and three treated cells were used to acquire different expression profiles of mRNAs and lncRNAs.
Project description:lncRNA-ATB induced transcriptional changes in SMMC-7721 Two-condition experiment, control (pcDNA3.1) vs lncRNA-ATB expression (pcDNA3.1-ATB). Each has 3 biological repeats.
Project description:In our present study, we found that lncRNA-hPVT1 could promote HCC cell proliferation. We want to know what were the target genes of lncRNA-hPVT1. So we constructed the hPVT1-overexpressed SMMC-771 cells and observed the mRNA profile in hPVT1-overexpressed and control SMMC-771 cells. lncRNA-hPVT1 induced transcriptional changes in SMMC-7721. Two-condition experiment, control (LV-Control) vs lncRNA-hPVT1 expression (LV-hPVT1 Clone2 ). Each has 3 biological repeats.

Project description:Many protein-coding oncofetal genes are highly expressed in murine and human fetal liver and silenced in adult liver. The protein products of these hepatic oncofetal genes have been used as clinical markers for the recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and as therapeutic targets for HCC. Herein, we examined the expression profiles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and mRNAs found in fetal and adult liver in mice.LncRNA-mPvt1 is an oncofetal RNA that was found to promote cell proliferation, cell cycling and the expression of stem cell-like properties of murine cells. Human lncRNA-hPVT1 promotes cell proliferation, cell cycling and the acquisition of stem cell-like properties in HCC cells by stabilizing NOP2 protein. Regulation of the lncRNA-hPVT1/NOP2 pathway may have beneficial effects in the treatment of HCC. We collected mouse fetal livers (E12.5, E14.5, E17.5 days), neonatal murine livers and adult murine livers (8 weeks). The total RNAs recovered from these developmental livers and were used to acquire different expression profiles of mRNAs and lncRNAs.
Project description:The role of TGF-β-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer cell dissemination is well established, but the involvement of lncRNAs in TGF-β signaling is still unknown. In this study, we observed that the lncRNA-Activated by TGF-β (lncRNA-ATB) was upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) metastases and associated with poor prognosis. lncRNA-ATB upregulated ZEB1 and ZEB2 by competitively binding the miR-200 family and then induced EMT and invasion. In addition, lncRNA-ATB promoted organ colonization of disseminated tumor cells by binding IL11 mRNA, inducing autocrine of IL11 and triggering STAT3 signaling. Globally, lncRNA-ATB promotes the invasion-metastasis cascade. Thus, these findings suggest that lncRNA-ATB, a mediator of TGF-β signaling, could predispose HCC patients to metastases and may serve as a potential target for anti-metastatic therapies. To identify mRNA species bound by lncRNA-ATB, we performed an RIP to pull down endogenous mRNAs associated with the lncRNA-ATB and sequenced the retrieved RNA.
Project description:To gain insights into the mechanisms of Eupolyphaga sinensis Walker (ESW) and taspine derivate on inhibition to HCC, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify different genes between ESW-treated sample and control. At the same time, the differences were investigated between taspine derivate and the same control. SMMC-7721 cells were cultivated in the absence or presence of 0.1mg/mL ESWE and Taspine derivate of 2.5x10-5mol/L for 48 h, followed by the Agilent Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarray. The PLG, PKCM-NM-2 and IL3RA genes confirmation of Microarray analysis was confirmed by Real-time PCR. SMMC-7721 cells were cultivated in the absence or presence of 0.1mg/mL Eupolyphaga sinensis Walker extract (ESWE) and Taspine derivate of 2.5x10-5mol/L for 48 h, followed by the Agilent Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarray
Project description:The Arraystar Human LncRNA Array v2.0 was designed for researchers who were interested in profiling both LncRNAs and protein-coding RNAs in human genome. 33,045 LncRNAs were collected from the authoritative data sources including RefSeq, UCSC knowngenes, Ensembl and many related literatures. This experiment is to profile lncRNAs and protein-coding RNAs using Arraystar Human LncRNA Array v2.0. Identification of coding RNAs and lncRNAs that are diffrentially expressed in colorectal cancer by comparing sample A-E (normal colorectal cells) vs sample F-J (colorectal tumor cells) and c-MYC-regulating lncRNAs by comparing sample 1-3 (triplicate of HCT116 cells treated with control siRNA) vs sample 4-6 (triplicate of HCT116 cells treated with siRNA targeting MYC) and sample 7-9 (triplicate of RKO cells treated with control siRNA) vs sample 10-12 (triplicate of RKO cells treated with siRNA targeting MYC) .
