Project description:Transcriptional response of KBM7 cells to IFN-gamma or TNF-alpha was investigated in control or cells with genetrap insertions in JAK2 or TNFRS1A, respectively. The experiment shows that, as expected, cells lacking JAK2 or TNFRS1A expression display a severly blunted response to the tested cytokines. KBM7 genetrap mutant cells stimulated with TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma Sample WT_1 corresponds with the control sample for the IFN-gamma stimulation; Sample WT_2 corresponds with the control sample for the TNF-alpha stimulation. As the expected differences between the samples was large, only single replicates were performed for each condition
Project description:MCF-7 cells were stimulated with TNF-alpha in order to identify IKKb substrates. conditions: TNF alpha stimulation TNF alpha stimulation + SC-514 IKK (kinase dead mutant) + TNF alpha stimulation IKK(WT) + TNF alpha stimulation basal Already validated IKK substrates were used to train random forest and to predict new substrates. Among other interesting candidates we validated AEG-1 (S298) as an IKKb substrate. We provide evidence that IKKb-mediated AEG-1 phosphorylation is essential for IkBa degradation as well as NF-kB-dependent gene expression and cell proliferation, which correlate with cancer patient survival in vivo. (replicate 1 out of at least 2)
Project description:We examined the mating response of three yeast species, by subjecting a-type cells from each of them to alpha-factor (6uM). The expression of cells before and after (60min) addition of alpha-factor were compared using S. cerevisiae cDNA microarrays. In addition, we verified our results with a true mating experiment: the expression of a-type and alpha-type cells from S. cerevisiae were compared before and after mixing them for 90 minutes (i.e. allowing them to mate). Keywords: yeast mating response, comparison among species
Project description:The series was designed to obtain gene expression patterns of TNF-alpha stimulated CaCo-2 cells. Keywords: TNF-alpha stimulation This series represents a group of 18 samples in 2 groups: 10 samples derived from not stimulated CaCo-2 cells, 8 samples from CaCo-2 cells stimulated with TNF-alpha in final concentration of 5 ng/ml for 60 min.
Project description:The series was designed to obtain gene expression patterns of TNF-alpha stimulated THP-1 cells. Keywords: TNF-alpha stimulation This series represents a group of 15 samples in two groups: 7 samples derived from not stimulated THP-1 cells, 8 from THP-1 cells stimulated with TNF-alpha in a final concentration of 5 ng/ml for 60 min.
