Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.

Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs. Two-condition experiment, KP MSCs vs. 3A6 MSCs.
Project description:Investigation of malignancy-associated expression of gene sets based on ovarian tumour histone modification status. A single serous epithelial ovarian tumour (which was assayed using ChIP-seq to determine histone modification profiles; SRA059358) was profiled using the HGU133 plus 2 GeneChip, along with 8 benign ovarian lesions (1 serous cyst, 3 serous cystadenomas and 4 serous cystadenofibromas) for comparison. Expression levels of genes marked in the tumour with particular histone modifications were compared between the tumour and the benign samples.
Project description:We report mapping of the PAX8 cistrome in three high grade serous ovarian cancer cell lines (KURAMOCHI, OVSAHO, and JHOS4) compared to three benign immortalized fallopian tube cell lines (FT33, FT194, and FT246). We identified a highly conserved PAX8 binding pattern common across benign fallopian tube cell lines that was distinct from the unique PAX8 binding patterns seen in each cancer cell line. Comparison of benign and malignant Mullerian cell lines.
