Project description:Primary cultures of patient tumor cells (PCPTC) were used in a cell-based cytotoxicity screen. Microarray-based mRNA profiling was used to identify the mechanism-of-action for the small molecule VLX 50. MCF7 cells were treated with the PCPTC screening hit VLX 50 or DMSO control for 6h prior to RNA isolation. One sample per treatment. Data were analyzed using both MAS5.0 and RMA.
Project description:Transcriptional expression data for bioactive small molecules for mechanism identification. Keywords: Expression profiling by array MCF7 cells were treated with either NSC76022 (thaspine) or DMSO control for six hours, to identify compound specific gene regulation.
Project description:This is an in vitro genome-wide CRISPR/cas9 screen in human glioblastoma stem cells, screening for genes essential for survival of these cells. These cells express cas9 and have been transfected with a guide RNA library causing gene knockouts. We will analyse the sequencing data for depletion of guide RNAs. In this particular study, we will do RNA sequencing to correlate CRISPR with expression levels in specific cancer cell subpopulations. This data is part of a pre-publication release.
