Genome-wide analysis of gene expression in DJ-1 deficient muscle cells

ABSTRACT: Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) underlie the pathogenesis of multiple disorders. Nevertheless, physiological levels of ROS are required for intracellular signalling and maintenance of metabolic homeostasis. DJ-1, a Parkinson’s disease-associated protein, is involved in the regulation of oxidative stress. Our aim in this study was to determine the effect of DJ-1 disruption on gene expression in muscle cells. To this end, we transfected a murine myoblast cell line, C2C12 cells with siRNA targeting DJ-1. Overall design: C2C12 myoblasts purchased from ATCC were transfected with scramble or DJ-1 siRNA, and 48 hours later, cells were induced to differentiate into myotubes. 4 days later, myotubes were harvested and processed for RNA extraction and hybridization.
