Project description:Expression of the TM4SF member CD9 on the human Burkitts lymphoma cell line Raji induced increased cell proliferation, motilty and adhesion to fibronectin. CD9 promoted increases in Raji cell proliferation was dependent upon histone deacetyalase (HDAC) activity as treatment with HDAC inhibitors trichostain A or cucurmin attenuated CD9 mediated increases in Raji cell proliferation. Gene expression of Raji cells stably expressing human CD9 via transfection with expression vector PRVCMVCD9 was compared with corresponding Mock transfected cell by microarray analysis using the Affymetrix U133 2.0 platform.
Project description:To identify full-length cap-to-poly(A) mRNA isoforms of CD20 and rule out reverse transcription artifacts which are common in cDNA-seq approaches, long-read Oxford Nanopore direct RNA sequencing was performed on the Raji cell line.

Experiment Overall Design: Transfected Raji cells that had been in cultured in RPMI, 10% FBS in the presence of 1mg/ml G418 were harvested during exponential growth and RNA was extracted using TRiReagent according to manufacturer's protocol (Sigma).
Project description:To investigate bryostain's effect on Raji , we performed a whole-transcriptome RNA sequencing experiment for Raji cells treated with Bryostatin and established differntial expression profile comparing to raji treated with DMSO.
Project description:miR-142-3p is highly expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and has been described as a hematopoietic-restricted lineage, suggesting immune functions (Chen, Li et al. 2004; Landgraf, Rusu et al. 2007; Merkerova, Belickova et al. 2008). In order to determine the roles of miR-142-3p in B lymphocytes, we over-expressed this miRNA in the Raji B-cell line using a synthetic mimic of miR-142-3p and analyzed gene expression 24 hours after the transfection.
Project description:To obtain further insight into the resistance mechanism, RNA-seq analysis was carried out on 3 independent samples of both the sensitive Raji and resistant Raji/253R cells. A gene-level differential expression analysis was performed by removing all genes with less than 50 reads across all 6 samples as genes with only low level expression can cause irregularities in differential expression analysis. Genes were considered to be differentially expressed if their adjusted p-value was less than the 0.05 level and their fold change was >2 in either direction. Among the 13,791 evaluable genes there were 1,012 that were significantly up-regulated in the Raji/253R cells and 704 genes that were significantly down regulated relative to the parental sensitive Raji cells. The ATP-binding cassette sub-family member ABCG2 was the most up-regulated gene with more than a thousand-fold increase in transcript level. Genes were considered to be differentially expressed if their adjusted p-value was less than the 0.05 level and their fold change was >2 in either direction.

Four replicates each of miR-142-3p-mimic transfection and apparied control mimic.
Project description:(i) RNA transcripts of Raji iBZLF1 cells (https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/573659v1) were compared between non-induced cells and cells induced with doxycycline (100 ng/ ml) for 6 h. Human (Hg19) as well as viral (EBV, Raji KF717093.1) transcripts were analyzed. Artificial ERCC Spike-ins (Thermo Scientific) were added to selected samples to control for global changes of RNA levels. (ii) For control purposes, the RNA transcripts in Raji cells equipped with a doxycycline-controlled truncated BZLF1 allele lacking its transactivation domain (Raji iBZLF1 AD-truncated) were prior to and after induction for 6 h. (iii) For another control, the RNA transcripts of parental, unmodified Raji cells were analyzed prior to and after doxycycline induction for 6 h. All experiments were performed as triplicates.
