Project description:The miRNA expression profiles of of EBV-infected YT and NK92 cells are compared. YT cells have weaker expression of T-bet and IFNg than NK92 cells. It was found that the EBV-encoded miR-BART20-5p inhibits the expression of T-bet and IFNg in YT cells. Approximately 100 ng total RNAs from YT and NK92 cells were used as the input. The GeneChip miRNA 2.0 array from Affymetrix, including probes for 44 EBV-encoded miRNAs and 1105 human miRNAs, was used. The experiments were performed in the microarray core laboratory of National Health Research Institute, Taiwan.

mRNA expression profiles in YT and NK92 cells

Project description:YT and NK92 cells are EBV-infected lymphoma cells of NK- cell origin. YT cells have weaker expression of T-bet and IFNg than NK92 cells. However, this data set shows that both cell lines have similar mRNA levels, implying post-transcriptional regulations. Affymetrix chips (Human Genome U133 plus 2.0) were used for a genome-wide screen of transcriptional profiles on YT and NK cells. Hybridization and washing of the arrays were done according to the GeneChipÂ® Expression Analysis Technical Manual from Affymetrix. The arrays were scanned with GenePix 4000B (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA.), and the data were extracted with Affymetrix Microarray suite (MAS) software.
