Project description:To investigate the function TET3 in the regulation of DNA methylation, we established HTR8-SVneo cell lines in which target gene has been knocked down by siRNA. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq for three replicates.
Project description:Here, we have undertaken comparative label-free quantitative (LFQ) proteomic profiling of the proteins expressed in BeWo and HTR8/SVneo cell lines using a mass spectrometry approach. We have identified 1557 proteins in total. 915 proteins were expressed in both cell lines including various transcription factors, chaperones and transport proteins. A further 338 and 304 proteins were uniquely expressed in BeWo and HTR8/SVneo cells respectively. Our bioinformatics analysis reflects the known epithelial and mesenchymal phenotypes of these cell models with principal differences in GO observed in ‘Cell junction’, ‘Catenin complex’ as well as ‘Cell adhesion’ and ‘Cell differentiation’. Our novel comparative proteomic analysis of these trophoblastic cell lines will set the stage for the use of trophoblastic cell lines for the study of pregnancy disorders and further research focusing on placental function.
Project description:The goal of this this project was to study the transcriptional change when PLAC8-EGFP was over expressed in the trophoblast cell line, HTR8/Svneo.
Project description:In this study, we investigated the potential downstream target proteins in trophoblasts that were regulated by SIRT1 through modulation of acetylation. To this end, the IP products of SIRT1 in the lysate of human first-trimester villous tissue and HTR8/SVneo cells were subjected to proteomics analyses by LC-MS/MS.
Project description:Analysis of the effect of ZNF554 knock-down on genome-wide gene expression in trophoblastic cells. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that ZNF554 regulates the expression of genes involved in trophoblastic cell migration and invasion. The results provide important information on the functions of ZNF554 in trophoblastic cells.
Project description:The goal of this study is to compare mRNAs expressed by EGF treated HTR-8/SVneo cells to iRNAs expressed in untreated control HTR-8/SVneo cells to identify various genes which play a role during EGF-mediated HTR-8/SVneo cell invasion
Project description:The goal of this study is to compare miRNAs expressed by HGF treated HTR-8/SVneo cells to miRNAs expressed in untreated control HTR-8/SVneo cells to identify micro RNAs which play a role during HGF-mediated HTR-8/SVneo cells invasion
