Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of PADMA28 ethanolic extracts on HepG2 gene expression. PADMA28 (Swissmedic Nr. 58436) is an Indo-Tibetan polyherbal preparation used for the treatment of symptoms associated with circulatory disorders. Triplicate cultures of HepG2 cells were treated with either PADMA28 or EtOH solvent control for 18 hours. After cell harvest, the triplicates were pooled and total RNA was extracted. The RNA was analyzed using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays (one array per treatment).

Project description:We performed microarray analysis to examine the differential gene expression profiles between Prdm1 (Blimp-1)-deleted and control keratinocytes. Keratinocytes isolated from Prdm1-floxed K5-CreER positive (CKO) mice were cultured in the presence of 4OHT to induce deletion of the Prdm1 allele in vitro. Prdm1-floxed K5-CreER positive (CKO) keratinocytes treated with the ethanol solvent control (EtOH) or Prdm1-floxed K5-CreER negative (control) keratinocytes treated with 4OHT or EtOH served as controls. Microarray analyses revealed that there were 93 genes up-regulated and 109 genes down-regulated by more than 2-fold in the CKO + 4OHT group in comparison with the CKO + EtOH, Ctrl + 4OHT or Ctrl + EtOH groups. Several corneocytes-related genes, including Rptn, Lce1f, Krt1 and Lce1d, are significantly down-regulated and several cytokines/chemokines, including Cxcl1, Cxcl2, Cxcl5 and Il24, are significantly up-regulated upon the deletion of Prdm1 in vitro.
Project description:The aim of the project is to compare NAA-induced proteome remodelling between wild-type plants (Arabidopsis thaliana, Col-0) to autophagy deficient mutants (atg2-1) treated MS growt media suplemented with solvent (EtOH- Control) or NAA (a synthetic variant of the plant hormone auxin. The aim is to look at the rapid response when treated with auxin and as so the treatment is very short at 30 minutes. The time of the experiment was at zeitgeber 0.
Project description:The MCF-7 were infected with either control adenovirus expressing B-galactosidase (Ad) or adenovirus expressing ERB (AdERbeta) for 72 h. For knockdown of the endogenous ERa in MCF-7 cells, cells were treated with siRNA for 24h (AdERbeta+SiERalpha). Then cells were treated with Veh (0.1% EtOH), 10 nM E2 or 1 uM BEs (botanical extracts) for 24h.
