Project description:To identify a microRNA profile of human medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), we performed a miRNA microarray analysis exploiting 8 primary tumours and 9 paired neck nodes metastases in comparison with 3 non-neoplastic thyroid tissues.
Project description:This study aims to investigate the microRNA profile in human medullary carcinoma tissue by microarray analysis and RT-qPCR. Matched tumor and adjacent normal tissue were obtained from 24 patients and analysed using human microRNA Microarray Kit Agilent, Differentially expressed miRNAs were validated by RT-qPCR using 37 other tumors samples (validation set), Associations of microRNA expression with clinicopathological items were studied Matched tumor and adjacent normal frozen tissues were obtained from thyroid of 40 patients. Normal tissue (name with suffix S) and lesionnal tissue (name with suffix L) were hybridized on microarray.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
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.
