Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human oral cancer cells KB comparing control blank vector with KB cells transfected with a pcDNA-CD133
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. Two-condition experiment, Normoxic MSCs vs. Hypoxic MSCs.
Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs. Two-condition experiment, KP MSCs vs. 3A6 MSCs.
Project description:CD133 is a marker of cancer stem cells. DAP5 is a is a translation initiation factor. The goal of the experiment was to characterize the proteomic differences between CD133+/- cells in the WT vs DAP5 depleted background. To this aim, 4 populations of human cells were FACS sorted: shNT_CD133-, shNT CD133+, shDAP5_ CD133-, shDAP5_CD133+. The collected cell pellets were subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis.
