Project description:To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying altered-FGFR3 oncogenic activity in bladder carcinomas, we made use of UMUC-14 cell lines, which endogenously expressed a mutated activated form of FGFR3 (FGFR3-S249C), the growth and transformation of these cell lines being dependent on activated-FGFR3 activity. We conducted a gene expression analysis using Affymetrix DNA arrays in this cell line treated or not with FGFR3 siRNAs.
Project description:To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying altered-FGFR3 oncogenic activity in bladder carcinomas, we made use of RT112 cell lines, which were derived from a human bladder tumor and endogenously expressed the FGFR3-TACC3 fusion protein, the growth and transformation of these cell lines being dependent on activated-FGFR3 activity. We conducted a gene expression analysis using Affymetrix DNA arrays in this cell line treated or not with FGFR3 siRNAs.
Project description:To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying altered-FGFR3 oncogenic activity in bladder carcinomas, we made use of MGH-U3 cell lines, which were derived from a human bladder tumor and endogenously expressed a mutated activated form of FGFR3 (FGFR3-Y375C), the growth and transformation of these cell lines being dependent on activated-FGFR3 activity. We conducted a gene expression analysis using Affymetrix DNA arrays in this cell line treated or not with FGFR3 siRNAs.
Project description:MLL/AF4 fusion transcript knock-down time course in the MLL/AF4-positive B-cell precursor ALL cell line SEM using MLL/AF4 fusion site-specific siRNAs (siMLL/AF4). The aim was to identify genes responsive to MLL/AF4 expression modulation.
Project description:siRNA-mediated knock-down followed by transcriptomic profiling revealed that silencing of TARBP2 resulted in a significant up-regulation of sRSE-carrying transcripts. Two independent siRNAs were used to knock down TARBP2 in metastatic 293T cells. The cells were then subjected to transcripome profiling in comparison to mock-transfected cells.
