Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to understand the signaling pathway alteration in cancer cell line treated with TEAD palmitoylation inhibitor MGH-CP1, and to further validate TEAD inhibitor for specifity in TEAD-YAP interuption. Methods:Breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 was chosen to be treated with TEAD palmitoylation inhibitor MGH-CP1 at 10μM for 24 hours. Total RNA was isolated for the analysis. RNA samples were sent to Novogen for library construction, RNA sequencing and raw data process. Results: MGH-CP1 specifically blocks TEAD transcriptional activity compared with YAP/TAZ siRNA in MDA-MB-231 cells. Conclusions: Our study privides gene expression profiling evidence to validate our TEAD palmitoylation inhibitor MGH-CP1 as specific small molecule to block TEAD transcriptional activity. We report the application of next generation sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of TEAD palmitoylation inhibitor MGH-CP1 in breast cancer cells.

Project description:To identify marker genes that are specific for N starvation-induced leaf senescence and suitable to detect cultivar differences at early senescence stages prior to chlorophyll loss, the transcriptomes of leaves of two B. napus cultivars differing in stay-green characteristics and N efficiency were analysed four days after senescence induction by the senescence inducers N starvation, leaf shading and leaf detaching.
