Project description:microRNA and mRNA profiling was conducted for parental cell lines and cell lines resistant to trifluridine in 3 colorectal cell lines (DLD-1, HCT-116, RKO). We hypothesized that a detailed comparison between miRNA and mRNA expression might reveal the mechanism for acquired resistant to trifluridine in colorectal cancer.

Project description:We observed human colorectal cancer cell lines obtained resistance under treatment, and resistant cells switched back to sensitive state when the treatment is withdrawn. To understand gene expressions change during this process, we performed Affymetrix experiments for parental, R20 (resistant), and W20 (withdrawal treatment) clones for three colorectal cancer cell lines.
Project description:We used microarray analysis to investigate differential gene expression on the induced radio-resistant colorectal cancer cell lines compared to the parental cell lines.
