Project description:Tumor suppressor p53 regulates various role in the cell including cell cycle arrest, DNA repair and apoptosis. Current research achieved to investigate p53 target genes in human osteosarcoma cell line-SaOS2 cell. Examination of p53 binding protein by transfecting flag-tagged wild type p53 into SaOS2 cells.
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:Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor with a high risk of metastasis and recurrence. Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of osteosarcoma and other cancers and is associated with genetic and epigenetic alterations. RUNX2 is an important transcription factor for osteoblastic differentiation, and aberrant expression of the gene contributes to the development and progression of osteosarcoma. To identify the effects of RUNX2 silencing on transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles in osteosarcomas, we generated SJSA-1 osteosarcoma cells stably expressing RUNX2 shRNA and SJSA-1 cells stably expressing scramble shRNA and analyzed transcriptome and metabolome profiles in the two cell types using Illumina NovaSeq 6000 and ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry, respectively. The datasets can be used by researchers to identify novel targets of RUNX2 and elucidate the role and underlying mechanism of RUNX2 in osteosarcoma pathogenesis and metabolic reprogramming.
