Project description:Expression profiling of U937 derived cell lines with induced expression of MN1or MN1-TEL in combination with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) Keywords: expression profiling Two similar experiments (A and B, biological duplicates) were performed. Hybridization includes dye swaps. See experimental_design.jpg (below) for detailed setup of the study. In short, different time points after induction of MN1 or MN1-TEL were compared to uninduced samples. The effects of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) were also investigated
Project description:MN1 leukemia is a poor prognosis leukemia occuring as MN1 overexpression or fusion with TEL (MN1-TEL), MN1 and MN1-TEL show different biology in terms of dependence of known self-renewal associated genes in leukemia, c-kit positive murine primary bone marrow cells were retrovirally transduced with MN1, MN1-TEL or MN1-TEL mutant MN1-TELdelDBD showing biological similarity with MN1, after retroviral transformation of cells and 10 d culture RNA was extracted and gene expression profiling was assessed
