Project description:We aimed to analyze the relationship between TET1 and aberrant CpG methylation in colorectal cancer (CRC). We established three stable TET1 knockdown clones and negative control clones of Colo320DM cells, and carried out gene expression analysis with Agilent Human Gene Expression microarray kit.

Project description:Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are an important component of the desmoplastic stroma in rectal cancer. Preoperative chemoradiotherapy plays a pivotal role in the management of locally advanced rectal cancer. Patient-derived CAFs were used to evaluate the response to radiotherapy and its consequent impact on colorectal cancer cells (COLO320DM). COLO320DM cells were seeded and 24 hours later 1.8Gy irradiated. Subsequently, 24h later COLO320DM cells were treated with the secretome of 10x 1.8Gy irradiated CAFs or sham treated CAFs in 0.5% of serum. RNA was isolated 6 hours or 48 hours later.
