Project description:Cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL) is a malignancy arising from either the intrahepatic or the extrahepatic bile ducts which carries a severe prognosis. HMGA1 is a transcription factor which has a high expression level in many types of cancer. In this study, we find HMGA1 overexpression in CHOL. In order to investigate the regulatory mechanism of HMGA1 in CHOL, we performed RNA-seq in HUCCT1 cells with HMGA1 knock down compared with control in three repeat.
Project description:The YAP pathway in regulating organ size by integrating external signals to control the expression of genes involved in cell proliferation. YAP is known to be involved in tumorigenesis in several tissues, yet its role in cholangiocarcinoma is not established We used microarrays to assess the role of YAP pathway in cholangiocarcinoma either by overexpressing a constitutively active YAP1 mutant, or by downregulating YAP1 expression using shRNA HuCCT1 cells where transfected with either a control scrambled shRNA or a shRNA targeting YAP1; cells were harvested, RNA was collected and analyzed using microarray

Project description:To identify changes in splicing patterns following TARBP2 knockdown, RNA-sequencing was performed on nuclear RNA extracted from cells expressing shRNAs targeting TARBP2 or a non-targeting shRNA (shControl).
