Project description:AS1 and AS2 encode MYB related protein and AS2-domain containing protein, respectively and may regulate transcription. These genes are involved in the determination of axes of leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana. To know the gene regulation in the leaf development, expression profile among wild-type, as1 and as2 mutants and AS2 overexpression plants were compaired. shoot apices from as1-1, as2-1, AS2 overexpressing, and wild type embryos

Project description:We knock down HOXB-AS3 with shRNA in OCI/AML3 cell line to investigate the downstream pathways of HOXB-AS3 in the cell proliferation.
Project description:AS2 encode AS2-domain containing protein and may regulate transcription. AS2 is involved in the determination of axes of leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana. Type IB DNA topoisomerase (TOP1α) gene has genetic interaction with AS1 and AS2 and is involved in repression of leaf polarity genes. To know the gene regulation in the leaf development, expression profile among wild-type and as2 mutant treated with and without 10-hydroxyl substituted camptothecin (10H-CPT), a specific TOP1 inhibitor, were compared
Project description:In our study, we valided the important oncogeneic roles of KIMAT1 and HIF1A-As2 in non-small cell lung cancer. We used custom designed GapmeRs to silence the KIMAT1 and HIF1A-As2 in H1299 and performed RNA-seq. 11389 and 7767 genes were regulated by KIMAT1 and HIF1A-As2, respectively.

We used custom designed GapmeRs to silence the KIMAT1 and HIF1A-As2 in H1299 and performed small RNA-seq. 214 and 233 microRNAs were regulated by KIMAT1 and HIF1A-As2, respectively.
Project description:Recently, increasing evidence shows that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a significant role in human tumorigenesis. However, the function of lncRNAs in human gastric cancer remains largely unknown. By using publicly available expression profiling data from gastric cancer and integrating bioinformatics analyses, we screen and identify a novel lncRNA, HOXC-AS3. HOXC-AS3 is significantly increased in gastric cancer tissues and is correlated with clinical outcomes of gastric cancer. In addition, HOXC-AS3 regulates cell proliferation and migration both in vitro and in vivo. RNA-seq analysis reveals that HOXC-AS3 knockdown preferentially affects genes that are linked to proliferation and migration. Mechanistically, we find that HOXC-AS3 is obviously activated by gain of H3K4me3 and H3K27ac, both in cells and in tissues. RNA pull down-mass spectrometry analysis identifies that YBX1 interacts with HOXC-AS3, and RNA-seq analysis finds a marked overlap in genes differentially expressed after YBX1 knockdown and those transcriptionally regulated by HOXC-AS3, suggesting that YBX1 participates in HOXC-AS3-mediated gene transcriptional regulation in the tumorigenesis of gastric cancer.Together, our data demonstrate that abnormal histone modification-activated HOXC-AS3 may play important roles in gastric cancer oncogenesis and may serve as a target for gastric cancer diagnosis and therapy.
Project description:In this work we dissect the functional role of the HOXB-AS3 long non coding RNA in patients with NPM1-mutated (NPM1mut) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We show that HOXB-AS3 regulates the proliferative capacity of NPM1mut AML blasts in vitro and in vivo. HOXB-AS3 was found to interact with the ErbB3-binding protein 1 (EBP1) and guide EBP1 to the ribosomal DNA locus. Via this mechanism HOXB-AS3 regulates ribosomal RNA transcription and de novo protein synthesis. We propose that in the context of NPM1 mutations, HOXB-AS3 overexpression acts as a compensatory mechanism, which allows adequate protein production in leukemic blasts.
