Project description:Analysis of H292 cells infected with Mycoplasma hyorhinis. Mycoplasma infection reduces the cytotoxic effect of Nutlin3 on H292 cells. The results provide insight into molecular mechanisms underlying the response of H292 cells to Nutlin3.
Project description:Chronic infection of M. hyorhinis is postulated to be associated with cancer cell migration and invasion. To explore the mechanisms of M. hyorhinis-promoted invasiveness, we performed Affymetrix genechip (HuGene-1_0-st) analysis to examine differential gene expression profiles between non-infected and infected gastric cancer cells. We used microarrays to detail global programme of gene expression and identified distinct classes of upregulated genes after M. hyorhinis infection of gastric cancer cell lines. noninfected or M. hyorhinis-infected gastric cancer cells were utilized for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
