Project description:A doxycyline-inducible INS-1 insulinoma cell line expressing proinsulin (C96Y)-GFP was engineered. Addition of doxycyline causes the production of the proinsulin (C96Y)-GFP, which is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum. This study analyzes the gene expression changes that occur after doxycyline-induced expression of proinsulin (C96Y)-GFP for 24h, 48h and 5 days. Expression changes were compared between control un-induced cells and cells treated with doxycyline. Three replicates (experiments) were performed for each time point.

Stable mutant insulin-expressing insulinoma cells were treated or not with doxycyline for 24h, 48h or 5 days and RNA was extracted for expression analysis.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE1589: Targets of HNF1b, HNF4a2 and HNF6 in INS-1 cells; GSE1590: Targets of HNF1b mutants in INS-1; GSE1591: INS-1 cell lines (FLP-In T-REx) Experiment Overall Design: Refer to individual Series
Project description:Four rat insulinoma cell lines (INS-1) were generated that contain a FRT site for FLP recombinase mediated site specific integration of specific genes. In addition, the cell lines contain the tetracycline repressor allowing tetracycline (tet) induction of the introduced gene. By comparing the gene expression profiles of uninduced and tet-induced cells, target genes of introduced transcription factors or other signal tranduction molecules can be identified. The expression profiles of the parental INS-1 cell line and the four derivatives were determined on a RAE230A array, showing that the highly differentiated phenotype of the parental cell line was maintained in the clones.
Project description:This study aims at elucidating how Coxsackie B virus infection perturbs the host's miRNA regulatory pathways that may lead to different pathological events using the miRNA microarray approach. The rat pancreatic cell line - INS-1E, was infected with various preparations of Coxsackie B4 viruses was analysed for miRNA expression profiles subsequently. The miRNA expression profiles were measured at 48, and 72 hours post infection, respectively.
