Project description:MicroRNA-10b may target numerous genes in gliomagenesis. The target genes of miR-10b may differ according to the cellular context. We used microarray analyses to determine the phenotypic effects and gene targets of miR-10b by silencing miR-10b in invasive U87-2M1 glioma cells.

We used microarray analyses to determine the phenotypic effects and gene targets of miR-10b by silencing miR-10b in invasive U87-2M1 glioma cells. Early passage U87-2M1 cells treated with the baculoviral control decoy vector or miR-10b decoy vector were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on microarray
Project description:An experimental lung metastasis assay was used to derive an invasive subline of U87 that is metastatic in mice. We used microarray analyses to find out over-represented gene ontologies that can explain the observed enhanced invasiveness of U87-2M1 cells. Early passage U87-2M1 cells and parental U87 glioma cells from ATCC were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on microarray

Project description:We have employed whole RNA microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes regulated by overexpression of miR-145 in U87 glioma cell. Lentivirus containing miR-145 coding sequence was infected to U87 cell to make U87 overexpressing miR-145. We did genome microarray between U87 and U87 overexpressing miR-145.

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE34454: Expression data from transfection of SW1783 glioma cells with microRNA-376a* for 24 hours GSE34455: Expression data from transfection of U87 glioma cells with miR-376a* for 24 hours GSE34456: Expression data from transfection of U87 glioma cells with miR-376a* for 72 hours Refer to individual Series
Project description:After performing an in-vivo screening with U87 glioblastoma cells transduced with a knockdown library several genes could be identified. Lin7a which was one of the candidates was further evaluated. Single knockdown of Lin7a in U87 conferred a pro-invasive phenotype in-vitro and in-vivo. Overexpression of Lin7a in the Primary glioblastoma cell line T269 reduced its invasive phenotype. To decipher the underlying pathways U87 control, U87-shLIN7a and U87-shLin7a+Lin7A (rescue cells after re-expression of Lin7A) were analyzed after in-vitro culture by a transcription profiling Array.
Project description:Using microarray technology, we aimed to produce a list of genes that are downregulated in miR-151a-overexpressing U87 glioma cells in comparison with these overexpressing miR-NC.
Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary malignant neoplasm of the central nervous system and, despite the standard therapy; the patients’ prognoses remain dismal. The miRNA expression profiles have been associated with patient prognosis, suggesting that they may be helpful for tumor diagnosis and classification as well as predictive of tumor response to treatment. We described the microRNA expression profile of 29 primary GBM samples (9 pediatric GBMs) and 11 non-neoplastic white matter samples as controls (WM) by microarray analysis and we performed functional in vitro assays on these 2 most differentially expressed miRNAs. Hierarchical clustering analysis showed 3 distinct miRNA profiles, two of them in the GBM samples and a group consisting only of cerebral white matter. When adult and pediatric GBMs were compared to WM, 37 human miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed, with miR-10b-5p being the most overexpressed and miR-630 the most underexpressed. The overexpression of miR-630 was associated with reduced cell proliferation and invasion in the U87 GBM cell line, whereas the inhibition of miR-10b-5p reduced cell proliferation and colony formation in the U251 GBM cell line, suggesting that these miRNAs may act as tumor-suppressive and oncogenic miRNAs, respectively. The present study highlights the distinct epigenetic profiling of adult and pediatric GBMs and underscores the biological importance of mir-10b-5p and miR-630 for the pathobiology of these lethal tumors.
