Project description:Senescence in WI-38 cell context was induce by RASv12 over expression Cellular senescence is a permanent cell cycle arrest that is triggered by cancer- initiating or promoting events in mammalian cells and is now considered a major tumour suppressor mechanism. Here, we did a transcriptomic analysis and compared WI-38 contol wich is a human fibroblaste cell line and WI-38 that overexpressed RASv12 a G protein that induce senescence. The goal of our project is to compare transciptomic profile of human growing fibroblast (WI-38 control) and senescent human fibroblast (WI-38 OERAS)

Project description:There is a distinctive miRNA expression profile between early (young) and replicative senescence (old). We observed a cluster of miRNAs that were repressed upon senescence in both MRC-5 and WI-38 fibroblast cells.

Project description:miRNA expression profiles of WI38 primary human fibroblasts with an active or inactive p53. Cells were compared under normal untreated conditions (young and proliferating cells), after DNA damage with Doxorubicin, and upon entry into replicative senescence. Keywords: miRNA, WI-38, p53, GSE56, Senescence, Doxorubicin, Cancer, DNA-damage, fibroblasts.
Project description:Cellular senescence is a complex biological process that contributes to wound healing, carcinogenesis, and age-related disease. Although the molecular mechanisms whereby senescence promotes wound repair are not well understood, the protein ANKRD1, which promoted wound healing in mice, was found to increase in senescent cells. We hypothesized that ANKRD1 may play a role in senescence-mediated wound healing. Conditioned medium (CM) from senescent WI-38 human diploid fibroblasts hastened cell migration of human HaCaT keratinocytes. Interestingly, silencing ANKRD1 in WI-38 cells reduced the effect of CM on cell migration, while overexpressing ANKRD1 accelerated it. Further proteomic analysis revealed that ANKRD1 associates with YBOX1, a multifunctional protein that modulates transcription of the ELN gene and reduces ELN mRNA production. The product of the ELN gene, the protein ELN or tropoelastin (a subunit of elastin), is a secreted factor that reduces motility. Thus, we propose that a rise in ANKRD1 during early senescence transiently limits the YBOX1-dependent transcriptional increase in ELN production, and thereby enables cell motility in early phases of senescence.
