Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and normal colon mucosa samples. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip v1.1 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across 482,421 CpGs in colon mucosa samples. Samples came from 10 Crohn's disease affected, 4 ulcerative colitis affected, and 10 normal individuals. One ulcerative colitis sample was assayed before and after treatment with 6-mercaptopurine and mesalamine.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and normal colon mucosa samples. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip v1.1 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across 482,421 CpGs in colon mucosa samples. Samples came from 5 Crohn's disease affected, 5 ulcerative colitis affected, and 12 normal individuals. One ulcerative colitis sample was assayed before and after treatment with infliximab and mesalamine.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and normal peripheral blood samples. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip v1.1 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across 482,421 CpGs in peripheral blood samples. Samples came from 17 Crohn's disease affected, 11 ulcerative colitis affected, and 20 normal individuals. Within these samples were three twin sets discordant for Crohn's disease and three twin sets discordant for ulcerative colitis.

Within these samples were three twin sets discordant for Crohn's disease and three twin sets discordant for ulcerative colitis. Bisulfite converted DNA from the 48 samples were hybridized to the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip v1.1
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and normal colon mucosa samples. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip v1.1 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across 482,421 CpGs in colon mucosa samples. Samples came from 9 Crohn's disease affected, 5 ulcerative colitis affected, and 10 normal individuals. Bisulfite converted DNA from the 24 samples were hybridized to the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip v1.1
Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs. Two-condition experiment, KP MSCs vs. 3A6 MSCs.
Project description:Ulcerative Colitis is an autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease that causes chronic inflammation in the colon and the rectum. Althoung extensively researched, the underlying molecular mechanisms of Ulcerative Colitis remain elusive. Especially, there is a lack of understanding about regulatory non-coding miRNA expression during Ulcerative Colitis. Therefore, we performed high-throughput miRNA profiling of colon tissue biopsies from XX patients with active Ulcerative Colitis, XX patients with quiescent Ulcerative Colitis and XX Symptomatic Control individuals.
