Project description:RAD21 ChIA-PET in human DU 145 cells For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODE_Data_Use_Policy_for_External_Users_03-07-14.pdf
Project description:MiRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of specific mRNA targets mainly by translational repression, mRNA deadenylation or cleavage. This series is meant to identify miRNAs deregulated in prostate cancer (PCa) by comparing the PCa cell lines LNCaP, PC3 and Du-145 to the normal prostate epithelial cell line RWPE-1. We analyzed three arrays each for LNCaP, PC3, Du-145 and RWPE-1 cell lines
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of DU-145 cells treated with 5-Aza for 72 h. Relative abundance to untreated control cells was used to estimate the effect of DNA demethylation on the expression of the RNAs. Two-condition experiment, 5-Aza-treated vs. untreated DU-145 cells. Biological replicates: 2. Technical replicates: 2.
Project description:Cultures of DU-145 cells and of LNCaP cells were treated for 216 hours with 100µM zebularine (SIGMA) in three independent biological experiments. Zebularine acts as a DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor thereby upregulating genes that are inactivated by e.g. promotor hypermethylation. The experiment aimed to search for upregulated transcripts to provide new targets for biomarker development and therapeutic use. Total RNA of untreated and treated (100µM zebularine) DU-145 cells (experiment HK_21_DU_145-HK_26_DU_145), and of untreated and treated (100µM zebularine) LNCaP cells (experiment HK_27_LNCaP-HK_32_LNCaP), were subjected to Affymetrix array analysis to detail the overall expression changes after treatment with a DNMT inhibitor. Treated cells showed no obvious signs of zebularine-induced cytotoxicity as revealed by XTT assays.
