Project description:We identified that Gsdmc gene is important for pancreatic cancer in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Here we used KPC mice (LSL-KrasG12D/+; p53f/f; Pdx1-Cre)-derived cancer cells, KPC cells in short, to check the effects of Gsdmc knockdown on primary tumor growth and metastasis. The results suggested that Gsdmc knockdown inhibited the expression of key genes in multiple pathways, including cell migration, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, immune cell recruitment, and so on. The data deposited here provides the transcriptomic alteration of KPC cells after Gsdmc knockdown with two shRNAs.
Project description:Pyroptosis is a type of lytic cell death executed by members of the gasdermin family. It has been demonstrated that induction of pyroptosis can effectively inhibit tumor growth, which implicates a new strategy for clinical tumor therapy, especially for those tumors (such as melanoma) that are insensitive or resistant to the induction of apoptosis.By means of a chemical compound DBIC, designed and identified by our group recently, to induce GSDMC-mediated pyroptosis in melanoma cells.
Project description:Transcriptomic data related to 4 different subpopulations found in Mex3a Ki/+ Lgr5 Gfp in APCflfl adenomas in untreated animals. Adenomas where induced with 3%DSS and a single shot of 8mg/kg of Tamoxifen. The populations are refered as Mex3a + Lgr5, Mex3a- Lgr5+ Mex3a+ Lgr5- and Mex3a- Lgr5- according to the flow cytometry profile. Cells were isolated using FACsARIA (BD)
