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.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of GIF-5 mouse gastric epithelial cells comparing CD133-positive and CD133-negative cells. The former formed CD133-positive and CD133-negative cells while the latter only CD133-negative cells, suggesting that CD133-positive cells are mother cells. The former produced differentiated type tumors while the latter undifferentiated types in vivo, indicating a relationship between CD133-expression and glandular structure formation. One-condition experiment, CD133-positive vs. CD133-negative cells. 2 replicates.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of ALDH1 high cancer stem like cells of ovarian cancer cell line, sorted out using ALDEFLUOR assay. Two-condition experiment, ALDEFLUOR positive vs. negative cells. Biological replicates: 1 ALDEFLUOR positive replicate, 1 negative replicate.
Project description:CD133+ and CD133 negative cells from pancreatic cancer cell line KPC001 were sorted using MACS technique. RNA was isolated using trizol (Invitrogen) and cleaned up using Qiagen RNAeasy columns. The RNA passed QC by the Biomedical Genomic Center (BMGC) of University of Minnesota. cDNA was prepared and hybridized by BMGC according to standard protocol. The goal of the experiment was to see changes in the expression of genes in the CD133+ vs CD133- population in the pancreatic cancer cell line derived from KPC mouse model.
