Project description:We sequenced mammary gland samples of MMTV-PyMT mouse from 4 stages (hyperplasia at week 6, adenoma/MIN at week 8, early carcinoma at week 10, and late carcinoma with lung metastasis at week 12) during tumor progression. We sacrificed 3 PyMT (FVB background) mice and 3 FVB control mice at each of the 4 stages, extracted small RNA and performed sequencing.

Project description:Junction Adhesion Molecule-A (JAM-A) is present on leukocytes and platelets where it promotes cell adhesion and motility. We are interested in an interaction between JAM-A and tumor progression/metastases. To address this point, we mated JAM-A-/- mice and mouse mammary tumor model MMTV-PyMT mice which, which express polyoma middle T antigen under the control of mouse mammary tumor virus. MMTV-PyMT mice show 100% penetration of mammary tumor and highly metastases to lung. MMTV-PyMT mice without JAM-A show less primary tumor progression, therefore JAM-A enhance primary tumor progression. Then we are addressing the molecular mechanism of this phenomenon by in vivo. Furthermore, we would like to examine JAM-A deficient MMTV tumor signature. Each 3 MMTV-PyMT JAm-A+/+ (JamA+) and 3 MMTV JAM-A-/- (JamA-) mammary tumor were resected at early stages of tumor development for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:We sequenced mammary tissues of PyMT mice from 4 stages (hyperplasia at week 6, adenoma/MIN at week 8, early carcinoma at week 10, and late carcinoma at week 12) during tumor progression. We also sequenced mammary tissues of age-matched FVB controls.

Project description:To investigate the role of NR1D1 in the progression of breast cancer, mammary gland tumor tissues were obtained from 14 weeks old FVB Nr1d1+/+;PyMT and Nr1d1-/-;PyMT mice and the gene expression patterns were analyzed by RNA-seq.
Project description:To study the low protein diet and cancer genetic effect on the macrophage in tumor, we treated the control-PyMT and S100a8-creRosa26-LSL-MYCPyMT (MYC-PyMT) mice reconstituted with wt bone marrow with low protein diet for 6 weeks
Project description:Nuclei of TAMs were sorted for single nucleus RNA sequencing from control-PyMT and MYC-PyMT tumor treated with low protein diet, and compare their transcriptome differences.
