Project description:Whole transcriptome sequencing was performed to identify ncRNA transcriptome in two human TNBC cell lines under normoxia and hypoxia
Project description:To define ncRNA expression in hypoxic endothelial cells, we applied pro-angiogenic hypoxia to cultured endothelial cells. Afterwards total RNA was isolated and underwent genechip analysis. HUVECs were subjected to normoxic or hypoxic (0.1-0.2% O2) cell culture conditions.

Project description:The expression levels of JMJD6 and its correlation with H2A.XY39ph differed in TNBC and non-TNBC cells. In addition, we have previously shown that H2A.XY39ph levels are positively correlated with tumor size, histological grade and advanced TNM stage in breast cancer. To analyze the role of JMJD6 in regulating the characteristics of different subtypes of breast cancer, the transcriptomes of TNBC cells (SUM159) and non-TNBC cells (HCC1569) that overexpressed JMJD6 were compared. We speculate that JMJD6 overexpression cause autophagy pathway activation in TNBC via enhancing ATG genes expression.
Project description:This study aimed to investigate whether the BET inhibitor JQ1 could alter the hypoxia-induced upregulation of gene expression and have an anti-tumour effect associated with this mechanism. We showed JQ1 downregulates 44% of hypoxia upregulated genes, including CA9 and VEGF-A. We demonstrated that JQ1 reduces triple receptor negative breast cancer (TNBC) tumour growth in monolayer and spheroid (3D) cell culture.
Project description:RUF6 is a ncRNA gene family that is transcribed by RNA Polymerase III but actively regulates the Pol II-transcribed var virulence gene family. Understanding how RUF6 ncRNA connect to downstream effectors is lacking. We developed an RNA-directed proteomic discovery (ChIRP-MS) protocol to identify in vivo RUF6 ncRNA protein interactions. The RUF6 ncRNA interactome was purified with biotinylated antisense oligonucleotides. Quantitative label-free mass spectrometry identified several unique proteins linked to gene transcription including. Affinity purification of Pf-DDX5 identified proteins originally found by our RUF6-ChIRP protocol, validating the technique’s robustness for identifying ncRNA interactomes in P. falciparum. Our work identifies a RUF6 ncRNA protein complex that interacts with RNA Pol II to sustain var gene expression.
