Project description:Question Addresses: What is the gene expression profile from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and human Jurkat T cells after irradiation (IR)? What, if any, is the effect of co-culturing these two cell types on gene expression? There are eight experimental conditions for this experiment: (1) non-irradiated HUVEC; (2) irradiated HUVEC; (3) non-irradiated Jurkat; (4) irradiated Jurkat; (5) non-irradiated HUVEC + non-irradiated Jurkat+; (6) non-irradiated HUVEC + irradiated Jurkat; (7) irradiated HUVEC + non-irradiated Jurkat; (8) irradiated HUVEC + irradiated Jurkat. A common, pooled reference consisting of RNA taken from conditions 1-8 as described above was used for all hybridizations.
Project description:HUVEC (N=3 isolates) were separately grown to sub-confluency, and to confluency. In order to study the effects of growth and contact inhibition on the transcriptome, the microarray gene expression profiles of these sub-confluent and confluent HUVEC were compared. Keywords: HUVEC, confluency, contact inhibition
Project description:HUVEC were left untreated or stimulated for 5h with 2 ng/ml TNF. Comparsion of the gene profiles revealed TNF-mediated gene expression changes in HUVEC. Keywords: parallel sample
Project description:In this project, we aimed to explore the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in Zika virus (ZIKV) infection. We preferred antibody capture to ltracentrifugation for exosome isolation. The EVs derived from naive HUVEc cells or ZIKV-infected HUVEc cells were harvested and analyzed by mass spectrometry. The protein profile data understand the relationship between the ZIKV and EVs.
