Project description:RNA-seq was performed in senescent BJ fibroblasts which had undergone stable JMJD6 or control knockdown since early young passages.
Project description:ATAC-seq was performed upon senescent BJ fibroblasts upon controls shRNA or knockdown of p65, SMAD2 or SMAD3, or NFI family members, in order to determine the role of each factor upon senescence associated enhancers.
Project description:Limited data exists regarding changes of microRNA (miRNA) expression during senescence in human cells and no reports correlate telomerase expression with regulation of senescence-related miRNAs. We used miRNA microarrays to provide a detailed account of miRNA profiles for early passage and senescent human foreskin (BJ) fibroblasts as well as early and late passage immortalized fibroblasts (BJ-hTERT) that stably express the human telomerase reverse transcriptase subunit hTERT. The revelation that miRNA expression changes with extended passaging in BJ-hTERT cells will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the connections between telomerase expression, senescence and processes of cellular aging.
Project description:We utilized whole genome sequencing of mRNA (RNA-seq) to understand the extent to which the senescence-associated secretory phenotype is regulated by p38MAPK Examination of replicates of young, senescent or p38MAPK-inhibited senescent BJ human foreskin fibroblasts.
Project description:Quantitative analysis of global proteomic changes in proliferating and senescent BJ fibroblasts, treated with eIF5A hypusination inhibitor GC7 (10 uM) for 12h.
