Project description:To screen the microRNA regulated by Twist1 and Bmi1 Establish stable transfectants of pSUPER-sh-Twist1 or pSUPER-sh-Bmi1 in OECM1 cells and analyze the miRNA expression level of by microRNA microarray. OECM1 transfected with pSUPER-sh-scr was used as a control experiment.
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:Expression of HIF-1a or Twist1 or Bmi1 in human hypopharyngeal cancer cell line FADU results in the drift of transcriptome profile from an epithelial cell-like signature to a mesenchymal stem cell-like signature. Stable transfection of pHA-HIF1a(dODD), pFLAG-Twist1 or pcDNA3-Bmi1 in FADU cell and analyzed the transcriptome by cDNA microarray. FADU transfected with pcDNA3.1 empty vector was used as a control of experiment.
