Project description:Jurkat T cell line was transfected with SIV Nef controlled by an unducible promoter system. Nef was induced by addition of 10 micromolar pronasterone A and gene expression values were determined after 24 hrs. Control Jurkat cells were untransfected and treated with 10 micromolar pronasterone A and gene expressio values were determined after 24 hrs. Keywords: SIV Nef, Jurkat, pronasterone A

Experiment Overall Design: Experimental conditions: 24 hr SIV Nef expression at physiological concentrations in T cells. Experiment Overall Design: Controls: Non-transfected. 24 hr.
Project description:Purpose: Comparison of RNA-sequencing datasets obtained from exosomes of Nef-transfected and Mock-transfected HEK293T cells Methods: Assessment of RNA content of exosomes produced by Nef-transfected HEK293T cells and and Mock-transfected HEK293T cells Results: Differences in a set of microRNAs Conclusions: Nef-transfection induces changes in the microRNA content of exosomes
Project description:Purpose: Comparison of RNA-sequencing datasets obtained from exosomes of Nef-transfected and Mock-transfected HEK293T cells. Methods: Assessment of RNA content of exosomes produced by Nef-transfected HEK293T cells and and Mock-transfected HEK293T cells. Results: Differences in a set of mRNAs. Conclusions: Nef-transfection might induces changes in the mRNA content of exosomes.
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:We have investigated the role of actin dynamics and the effect of actin cytoskeleton modifying agents on retinoid receptor-mediated transactivation. Using Nef, an actin modifying HIV-1 protein, the role of LMK1/CFL1-mediated actin dynamics in receptor function was studied. The effect of Nef expression on transcriptome was investigated following transfection of HEK293 cells with Nef-expressing plasmid. The array data identified Nef-induced inhibition of a number of genes that contain retinoid receptor binding sites in their promoters. The experiment was designed to study the effect of expression of HIV-1 Nef protein on gene expression levels in HEK293 cells. Cells were transfected in three different experiments (each time in duplicate) with Nef expressing plasmid and a plasmid that contained a non-expressing Nef construct (Nef/Stop) as control. The cells were harvested after 36 of transfection and processed for gene array.
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.
