Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE16656: Transcriptome analysis identifies molecular effectors of unconjugated bilirubin in human neuroblatoma SH-SY5Y cells: 24h; GSE16766: Transcriptome analysis identifies molecular effectors of unconjugated bilirubin in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells: 1h; GSE16767: Transcriptome analysis identifies molecular effectors of unconjugated bilirubin in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells: 4h Experiment Overall Design: Refer to individual Series
Project description:The deposition of unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) in selected regions of the brain results in irreversible neuronal damage, or Bilirubin Encephalopathy (BE). Although UCB impairs a large number of cellular functions, the basic mechanisms of neurotoxicity have not yet been fully clarified. While cells can accumulate UCB by passive diffusion, cell protection may involve multiple mechanisms including the extrusion of the pigment as well as pro-survival homeostatic responses that are still unknown. The effects of UCB treatment to SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line were examined by high-density oligonucleotide microarrays. 230 genes were induced after 24 hours. A Gene Ontology (GO) analysis showed that a large group of UCB-induced genes were components of the ER stress response. Independent experimental validation of molecular events crucial for the ER stress response is presented. The results show that UCB exposure induces the ER stress response as a major intracellular homeostatic response in neuroblastoma cells in vitro. Our finding may provide valuable information for new therapeutic strategies in the treatment of BE. Experiment Overall Design: We used high-density oligonucleotide microarrays to analyze the gene expression profile of human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells upon UCB treatment. Three replicates of UCB-treated cells were analyzed. As controls, we used three replicates of the same cells treated with DMSO only (the solvent used for UCB treatment).

Project description:Analysis of the effect of shRNA-mediated knockdown of TRPM7 on gene expression levels in SH-SY5Y and SH-EP2 human neuroblastoma cells. Results were used for the identification of neural-crest-associated transcription factors that were affected by TRPM7 knockdown. Total RNA isolated from SH-EP2 and SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells transduced with a scrambled shRNA (control) or TRPM7 shRNA, experiment performed in duplicate.
