Project description:We recently identified a subset of down-regulated miRNAs such as miR-489 and miR-504 in HNSCC. Cell growth inhibitions occurred in miR-489 and miR-504 transfectants compared with the controls, suggesting that both miRNAs function as tumor suppressors. The aims of our expression studies were identification of these miRNAs target genes.
Project description:To identify target genes of tumor suppressive microRNAs in human cancer, several cell lines (bladder cancer, prostate cancer, renal cell carcinoma, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma) were subjected to Agilent whole genome microarrays. miR-517a, miR-218, miR-145, miR-1 and miR-874 function as tumor suppressors.
Project description:To identify target genes of oncogenic or tumor suppressive microRNAs in human cancer, several cell lines (bladder cancer, prostate cancer, renal cell carcinoma. lung squamous cell carcinoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma) were subject to Agilent whole genome microarray. miR-183 and miR-96 function as oncogene. miR-1, miR-133a, miR-135a, miR-145 and miR-375 function as tumor suppressor

Human cancer cell lines (BOY, T24, A498, PC3, DU145, FaDu, SAS, HSC3, IMC3) were transfected with miRNAs (miR-517a, miR-218, miR-145, miR-1, miR-874). The miRNA-transfected human cancer cell lines were compared to control cell lines.

Project description:Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) are the sixth most common malignant cancer worldwide. To understand the pathogenesis of HNSCC, we investigated the effects of miR-1825 overexpression on tumor formation capacity of head and neck cancer cells in vivo using NUDE mice. We searched for potential targets of miR-1828 using microarray analysis and luciferase assay. We found that miR-1825 expression is upregulated in head and neck cells and clinical tumor samples in comparison to corresponding controls, where it potentially acts as an oncogene.
Project description:To identify target genes of cancer-related microRNAs in human cancer, several cell lines (bladder cancer, prostate cancer, renal cell carcinoma, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma) were subjected to Agilent whole genome microarrays. Human cancer cell lines (BOY, T24, A498, 786-O, caki-1, LNCap, PC3, TE2, T.Tn, FaDu, SAS, HSC3, and IMC-3) were transfected with miRNAs (miR-375, miR-145, miR-200a, miR-200b, miR-200c, miR-141, miR-429, miR-138, miR-218, miR-874, miR-31, miR-222, miR-1285, and miR-206) or siRNAs (si-FOXA1_1, si-FOXA1_3, and si-TAGLN2). The miRNA-transfected human cancer cell lines were compared to control cell lines.
