Project description:The CCND1 gene, which is frequently overexpressed in cancers, encodes the regulatory subunit of a holoenzyme that phosphorylates the retinoblastoma protein (pRb). It is known that cyclin D1 regulates ERα transactivation using heterologous reporter systems, the significance of this observation to E2 dependent gene activation is unknow. E2 stimulated MCF7 cells treated with cyclin D1 siRNA in order to analyze the genes regulated by estradiol in a cyclin D1 dependent manner. Hormone deprived MCF7 cells were treated with cyclin D1 siRNA or control siRNA and stimulated with E2 or vehicle
Project description:We performed genome-wide mapping of MAF binding sites in control and MAF-overexpressing MCF7 cells to assess the consequences of estrogen (E2) stimulation on MAF recruitment to chromatin. To this end, we cultured MCF7 cells in hormone-deprived (HD) medium for 72 h and then E2 or vehicle was added for 1h prior to chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Samples were generated in triplicate. We report that MAF binding is largely independent of E2
Project description:We performed genome-wide mapping of H3k27ac and H3K4me3 sites in control and MAF-overexpressing MCF7 cells to assess the consequences of estrogen (E2) stimulation and MAF overexpression recruitment to chromatin. To this end, we cultured MCF7 cells in hormone-deprived (HD) medium for 72 h and then E2 or vehicle was added for 1h prior to chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Samples were generated in triplicate.
Project description:The CCND1 gene, which is frequently overexpressed in cancers, encodes the regulatory subunit of a holoenzyme that phosphorylates the retinoblastoma protein (pRb). It is known that cyclin D1 regulates ERM-NM-1 transactivation using heterologous reporter systems, the significance of this observation to E2 dependent gene activation is unknow. E2 stimulated MCF7 cells treated with cyclin D1 siRNA in order to analyze the genes regulated by estradiol in a cyclin D1 dependent manner. Hormone deprived MCF7 cells were treated with cyclin D1 siRNA or control siRNA and stimulated with E2 or vehicle Four separate 10cm plates of MCF7 cells treated with control siRNA were compared to four 10cm plates of MCF7 cells treated with cyclin D1 siRNA. 2 plates in each group treated with vehicle and two plates treated with E2.
Project description:We performed genome-wide mapping of estrogen receptor (ER) binding sites in control and MAF-overexpressing MCF7 cells to assess the consequences of estrogen (E2) stimulation upon metastasic MAF expression. To this end, we cultured MCF7 cells in hormone-deprived (HD) medium for 72 h and then E2 or vehicle was added for 1h prior to chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Samples were generated in triplicate. We report that E2 induces extensive ER recruitment to chromatin and that ER-binding is gained and expanded upon MAF overexpression.
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.
