Project description:Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with approximately 1 million patients being diagnosed annually. Better elucidating the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and aggressiveness is important for improving the therapeutic efficiencies of gastric cancer. Since our previous studies indicate that intelectin 1 (ITLN1) is aberrantly expressed in gastric cancer and serves as a prognostic factor for predicting the outcomes of gastric cancer patients, we hypothesized that ITLN1 might participate in the progression and aggressiveness of gastric cancer. We employed the human whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to analyze the transcriptome profiling changes of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells in response to stable over-expression of ITLN1. The results showed that stable over-expression of ITLN1 led to altered expression of 1592 human mRNAs, including 547 up-regulated genes and 1045 down-regulated genes. Then we found the possible roles of these differentially regulated mRNAs in selected pathways including cell cycle/proliferation, apoptosis, and cytokine/chemokine responses by Bioinformatic analysis. Furthermore, we validated the microarray results by real-time RT-PCR with high identity. Overall, our results provided fundamental information about the transcriptomic changes in response to ITLN1 over-expression in human gastric cancer cells, and these findings will help us understand the pathogenesis of gastric cancer.

Total RNA of cells stably transfected with empty vector or ITLN1 was extracted using the TRIZOL Reagent according to the manufacturer's instructions. Gene expression profiling was performed for each RNA sample separately on the Agilent Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarray 4×44K at Shanghai Technology Corporation (Shanghai, China), in which GeneChip microarray service was certificated by Agilent.
Project description:In order to explore the effect of RNA-binding protein PUM1 on proliferation, metastasis and metabolism of gastric cancer, we established PUM1 stable knockdown SGC-7901 cell lines. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of PUM1-knockdown and negative control SGC-7901 cells.
Project description:Expression analysis of gene expression changes in Homo sapiens SGC-7901 cells after knock down of MTA2 (Metastasis-associated protein) or overexpression SNHG5 (snoRNA host gene 5) Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Homo sapiens gastric carcinoma cells SGC-7901 after knock down MTA2 expression and upregulation of SNHG5 A four chip study using total RNA extracted from SGC-7901 cells transfected with siRNA negative control and SGC-7901 cells knock down of MTA2 with siRNA. Each chip measures the expression level of 45033 genes collected from the authoritative data source including NCBI
Project description:Metastasis associated 1 family, member 2 (MTA2) gene is classified to metastasis associated gene family. We have previously reported that MTA2 gene was overexpressed in gastric cancer tissues, correlating with tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, and advanced TNM stage. MTA2 knockdown significantly inhibited gastric cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Yet, its molecular mechanisms are still unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate the molecular mechanisms of MTA2 in regulating malignant behaviors of gastric cancer. This experiment captures the expression data between BGC-823/NC and BGC-823/MTA2, SGC-7901/NC and SGC-7901/shMTA2 cells using Whole human genome microarray 4×44K (Design ID: 014850, Agilent technologies).

Project description:NUAK1 was highly expressed in tumors, and promoted their invasion and metastasis.. The study is to explore the downstream of NUAK1 in human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells
Project description:HPSE plays important roles in gastric cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis.The aim of this study is to explore molecular mechanism underling roles of HPSE in gastric cancer cell proliferation, survival, migration and metastasis. SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells were transfected with HPSE siRNA (10nM) or scramble control siRNA, RNA were extracted 24hours after transfectioin and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays. 3 biological repeats were used for each condition.
Project description:To explore the functon of IRX1 in gastric cancer, we employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify gene expression changes in three samples. We constructed the eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-IRX1. The pEGFP-IRX1 expression vector was transfected into SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells by Lipofectamine 2000. The IRX1 protein was mainly observed in nuclei. Naive SGC7901 and empty vector pEGFP-N1 transfected cells were used as controls. Gene expression profiles were compared between parental gastric cancer cell line SGC7901 and cells transfected with pEGFP-IRX1 and pEGFP-N1.
Project description:Cisplatin is the first-line agent utilized for the clinical treatment of a wide variety of solid tumors including gastric cancer. However, the intrinsic or acquired cisplatin resistance is often occurred in patients with gastric cancer and resulted in failure of cisplatin therapy. In order to investigate if miRNA involves in cisplatin resistance of human gastric cancer, we first screened and compared the expression of miRNAs between cisplatin resistant gastric cancer cell lines SGC-7901/DDP and BGC-823/DDP and their sensitive parental cells by miRNAs microarray.
