Project description:The level of reactivity in pre-sensitized individuals following repeated epicutaneous challenges with diphenylcyclopropenone (DPCP) remains unknown. We studied the kinetics and time-course of the developing reactivity to this potent contact sensitizer using genome-wide gene expression data Ten healthy human volunteers were sensitized to DPCP. Five or six elicitation challenges were performed and punch biopsies were selected from vehicle control and challenge sites for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

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:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
