Project description:HUVECs were stimulated and samples were prepared after 0 and 30 min. Chromatin interaction mediated by active RNA polymerase II was detected by ChIA-PET. Samples were made afrer 0 and 30 min after TNF alpha stimulation.
Project description:Effect of TNF-alpha on microRNAs levels in Human Umbilical Endothelial Cells (HUVECs). HUVEC that were treated or not for 2 or 24 hours with TNF (10 ng/ml). Duplicate samples (1 or 2) of two different isolations of HUVEC (A or B)
Project description:TNF alpha is one of the inflammatory mediator and induce genes mainly by transcriptional factor, p65, in endothelial cells. This time, we performed a time course study to detect the change of localization of p65 and Pol II. To identify p65 and Pol II binding sites, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation with deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) of HUVECs treated with or without TNF alpha for 30 mins. Cells were starved before stimulation longer than 16 hours. HUVECs were used within the first 6 passages. For crosslinking, 10 mM of EGS in 50% glacial acetic acid was used for 45 min, followed by 20 min of 1% paraformaldehyde treatmet was used.
