Project description:To investigate the specific roles of SIRT1 in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma, we employed large-scale gene expression analysis to identify the molecular signature that may affect enabling characteristics of cancer cells. Differentially expressed genes were analyzed on the SNU-182 cells transfected with SIRT1 siRNA and recapitulated molecular signatures that related to hallmarks of cancer. SIRT1 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma was analyzed by RT-PCR and western blot. RNA interference-mediated protein knockdown method was used to investigate oncogenic potential of SIRT1 in hepatocelluar carcinoma
Project description:To explore the miRNA expression profiles between HBV-related Hepatocellular carcinoma and no HBV-related Hepatocellular carcinoma To performe microarray analysis to detect the miRNA expression profiles between HBV-related Hepatocellular carcinoma and no HBV-related Hepatocellular carcinoma
Project description:Thioredoxin Domain Containing 9 (TXNDC9) is a member of the thioredoxin family. The exact function of this protein is not known. This experiment is a transcriptiome profiling of TXNDC9 dependent RNA expression in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2. By compairing the gene expression profile of WT and TXNDC9 knockout, we identified some genes directly or indirectly regulated by TXNDC9 in hepatocellular carcinoma.
