Project description:PyMT cells (HIF-1 wild type, WT and HIF-1 knockout, KO) were compared for differential gene expression at normoxia or after exposure to hypoxia, 0.5% oxygen for 6h
Project description:We compared the transcriptional profile of mammary tumors spontaneously developed in PyMT transgenic mice either bearing or not additional copies of the endogeneous SIRT6 gene.
Project description:To investigate the role of NR1D1 in the progression of breast cancer, mammary gland tumor tissues were obtained from 14 weeks old FVB Nr1d1+/+;PyMT and Nr1d1-/-;PyMT mice and the gene expression patterns were analyzed by RNA-seq.
Project description:Previously, lncRNA Malat1 knockout mice were generated by insertional inactivation. By crossing this line to MMTV-PyMT mammary tumor mouse model, we produced PyMT;Malat1 wild-type (WT) and PyMT;Malat1 knockout (KO). Furthermore, we generated Malat1 transgenic mice by targeting ROSA26 locus and bred them to PyMT;Malat1 knockout mice to produce Malat1-rescued PyMT;Malat1 knockout;Malat1 transgenic animals (TG). Using mammary tumors from the three groups of animals, we performed RNA-Seq analysis to identify differentially up-regulated genes in KO tumors to find novel target genes of YAP-TEAD pathway.
Project description:To characterise the metabolic landscape of metastatic breast cancer we investigated differences in metabolites between the serum of MMTV-PyMT (Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus long terminal repeat upstream of a cDNA sequence encoding the Polyoma Virus middle T antigen) mice and their wild-type counterparts (https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.07.02.601676). Here we provide matched transcriptomic data on the primary mammary tumors from MMTV-PyMT mice and the mammary gland from FVB/N mice
Project description:The goal of this study is to characterize and compare endothelial cell populations within PyMT mammary tumors exhibiting distinct tumor immune microenvironments. Using single-cell RNA sequencing of endothelial-enriched tumor samples, this dataset enables systematic comparison of endothelial transcriptional states between PyMT-M and PyMT-N tumors. The study is designed to provide a resource for investigating tumor-associated vascular heterogeneity and endothelial remodeling in the PyMT mouse model.
Project description:We labeled PyMT control cells versus PyMT-GPx2 KD with GFP in vitro and then injected into mammary fat pad of mice for incubating 45 days. We then generated single cell suspension by FACS sorting from PyMT-control, GPx2 KD. 10X Genomics was used to make cDNA library. We then sequenced the samples with Illumina high throughput sequencing.
Project description:Junction Adhesion Molecule-A (JAM-A) is present on leukocytes and platelets where it promotes cell adhesion and motility. We are interested in an interaction between JAM-A and tumor progression/metastases. To address this point, we mated JAM-A-/- mice and mouse mammary tumor model MMTV-PyMT mice which, which express polyoma middle T antigen under the control of mouse mammary tumor virus. MMTV-PyMT mice show 100% penetration of mammary tumor and highly metastases to lung. MMTV-PyMT mice without JAM-A show less primary tumor progression, therefore JAM-A enhance primary tumor progression. Then we are addressing the molecular mechanism of this phenomenon by in vivo. Furthermore, we would like to examine JAM-A deficient MMTV tumor signature. Each 3 MMTV-PyMT JAm-A+/+ (JamA+) and 3 MMTV JAM-A-/- (JamA-) mammary tumor were resected at early stages of tumor development for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:The goal of the experiment was to carry out a transcriptome analysis of the three main epithelial cell populations of the mouse mammary gland, the basal/myoepithelial, luminal estrogen receptor negative (ER-) and luminal estrogen receptor positive (ER+) cells, to identify cell-type specific differences in gene expression. Three replicates arrays were carried out for each of the three populations (a total of nine arrays). Each replicate was a genuine biological replicate from RNA harvested from completely independent cell preparations. Each sample was isolated from preparations of mammary epithelium derived fourth mammary fat pads of 8 * 10 week old virgin female FVB mice. Each preparation was from a pool of 10 * 20 animals (20 * 40 fat pads).
