Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
Project description:Dysregulated miRNA in human colorectal cancer (CRC) were identified through comparison between 4 CRC tumors and their adjacent normal tissues by miRNA array. Histologically-confirmed CRC were included in this study. CRC tissues and paired adjacent normal tissues were obtained from the resected surgical specimens. The adjacent normal tissue is composed of normal colonic mucosa located at approximately 10 cm away from the cancer tissue. miRNA profiling of 754 human miRNAs was performed using TaqMan Human MiRNA Array Set v3.0. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (Q-PCR) was performed using Applied Biosystems 7900HT Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). Results were analyzed by the SDS RQ Manager 1.2 software (Applied Biosystems).
Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.
