Project description:In this study, we comparatively analyzed the members of the miR-449 family (miR-449a, miR-449b, and miR-449c) with regards to their target genes and functional effects in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Microarray analysis after transient transfection of miR-449a, miR-449b, and/or miR-449c in the HCC cell line HLE identified putative target genes of miR-449a, miR-449b, and miR-449c.

Microarray analysis after transient transfection of miR-449a, miR-449b, and/or miR-449c in the HCC cell line HLE identified putative target genes of miR-449a, miR-449b, and miR-449c. For transient overexpression of miRNAs, the HCC cell line HLE was transfected with 50 nM Allstars Negative Control or miScript miRNA mimics. MiRNA mimics for miR-449a, miR-449b, and miR-449c were either single transfected or cotransfected in equimolar amounts (16.7 nM each). Global mRNA expression profiling was performed utilizing pooled RNA of three biological replicates per microarray and two microarrays per condition.

Project description:mRNA expression profile modified by stable transfection of microRNA mir-517a (MIR517A) in a human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Huh-7 Keywords: Hepatocellular carcinoma, Expression array, microRNA microRNA mir-517a (MIR517A) was transfected to Huh-7 cells using GFP-expressing lentiviral vector. Infected cells were selected using flow cytometry and subjected to mRNA expression microarray experiment. The profiles were compared to controls cells infected with only GFP protein.
