Project description:The Bmi1 Polycomb protein is involved in the epigenetic repressive control of self renewal and survival of cancer initiating cells. In Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML), bmi1 expression increases gradually as the disease progresses from a chronic latent phase to a deadly blast crisis. We developped an inducible shRNA system to silence Bmi1 in the human K562 chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cell line in order to identify new Bmi1-target genes. Gene profiling was performed on inducible shBmi1-K562 cells incubated without (P3-K562+shBMI1) or with doxycycline for 96h (P4-K562+shBMI1+doxycycline) using HG-U133 Plus2 Affymetrix Arrays.

Project description:Comparing the gene expression profiling of HDGF-silenced RD-ES cells and control RD-ES cells to identify genes regulated by HDGF in RD-ES cells. Keywords: expression analysis
Project description:Comparing the gene expression profiling of HDGF-silenced RD-ES cells and control RD-ES cells to identify genes regulated by HDGF in RD-ES cells. Keywords: expression analysis Control RD-ES cells and HDGF-silenced RD-ES cells were profiled on 22K Human Genome Array
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
Project description:Increased FTO expression has been connected to resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors in CML. To explore the therapeutic potential of targeting FTO in CML, we tested the FTO catalytic inhibitor in the K562 CML cell line. The RNA-seq was performed to identify relevant regulated genes.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
