Project description:Microarrays were used to examine gene expression differences between human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines (FaDu, UTSCC8, UTSCC42a) grown in culture in comparison to a normal oral epithelial cell line. Gene expression data was integrated with global protein expression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines and conditioned media to identify secreted protein markers up-regulated at the mRNA level in cancer cells versus the normal cell line. Total RNA obtained from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines and a normal oral epithelial cell line
Project description:(Objectives) The goal of this study is to investigate paracrine effect of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) on Head and Neck cancer cell lines. (Method) Transcription profiles of PBMCs (control) and PBMCs co-cultured with Head and Neck cancer cell lines (treatment) were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate for HN17 and duplicate for HN4, using Illumina HiSeq 4000. (Results and conclusion) Transcriptome analysis of PBMCs has shown the gene expression changed when co-cultured with HN cell lines. The result revealed significantly down-regulated genes. On the other hand, up-regulated gene, ZCCHC6 were used to validated with qRT-PCR in HNSCC patient blood. The synopsis of this study demonstrates paracrine effect on PBMC of HNSCC patient to significantly up expression of ZCCHC6 gene when compared with healthy donors.

Project description:Two HPV(+) head and neck cancer cell lines (UPCI-SCC-090, UM-SCC-104), one HPV(–) head and neck cancer cell line (FaDu) and one nasopharyngeal epithelial cell line (NP69SV40T) were subjected to RNA-seq analysis.
