Project description:Microarray-based gene expression analysis identified microRNAs and mRNAs differentially expressed in 5 glioblastoma spheroid cultures upon ATRA treatment. In this study, a set of 5 glioblastoma spheroid cultures was used to acquire microRNA expression profiles, leading to the identification of differentially expressed microRNAs between untreated and ATRA-treated cultures. In this study, a set of 5 glioblastoma spheroid cultures was used to acquire expression profiles of a total of 16,651 transcripts, leading to the identification of differentially expressed genes between untreated and ATRA-treated cultures by Significance Analysis of Microarray data.

Project description:As one of the leading causes of cancer deaths worldwide, colorectal cancer (CRC) development is closely associated with the accumulation of both genetic and epigenetic alterations. Many efforts have been made to investigate the role of epigenetic modifications in CRC metastasis. In this work, we present the first quantitative top-down proteomics study focusing on histone proteoforms between metastatic (SW620) and nonmetastatic (SW480) CRC cells to reveal potentially critical histone proteoforms in CRC metastasis. We isolated histone proteins from CRC cells, separated them by sodium dodecyl-sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), recovered each histone protein from the gel, and analyzed them by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). A total of 230 histone proteoforms were quantified in SW480 and SW620 cell lines, among which 34 proteoforms were significantly altered in abundance in the metastatic cells, indicating a significant transformation of histone proteoforms during metastasis. We observed a significant increase in abundance of all nine differentially expressed histone H4 proteoforms in metastatic SW620 cells compared to SW480 cells, while differentially expressed proteoforms of other histone proteins display diversified expression patterns. Additionally, two histone H2A proteoforms with a combination of N-terminal acetylation and phosphorylation were upregulated in the metastatic CRC cells. These differentially expressed histone proteoforms could be novel proteoform biomarkers of CRC metastasis.
