Project description:Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Epstein-barr virus-associated gastric cancer accounts for about 10% of all gastric cancers. EBV itself expresses a variety of proteins and regulates the expression of host genes. In this study, we examined the knockdown of BC200 and eIF4A3 in AGS-EBV, respectively, and analyzed its effect on host mRNA expression.
Project description:Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Epstein-Barr virus-associated gastric cancer accounts for approximately 10% of all gastric cancers. EBV expresses its own proteins and miRNAs (BART miRNAs) and regulates host gene expression. In this study, we examined the effect of EBV infection on host mRNA expression. Differential gene expression was analyzed between EBV-negative human gastric cancer cell line AGS and EBV-positive human gastric cancer cell line AGS-EBV.
Project description:C7 is a novel lytic cycle inducer of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in EBV-positive epithelial cells. To analyze the potential signaling pathways that are activated by C7 for induction of EBV lytic cycle, we performed a RNA sequencing to analyze the RNA expression profiles in AGS-BX1 gastric carcinoma cells before and after treatment with C7.
Project description:Gene expression profile of AGS gastric carcinoma cell line infected in vitro with Epstein-Barr Virus. Some samples also contain are stably transfected with a dominant negative LMP1 construct. 8 total samples. 4 biological replicates of EBV infected cells, 2 biological replicates with EBV infected cells with LMP1DN construct, and 2 biological replicates with EBV infected cells with control vector.
