Project description:To investigate the effect of recombinant CXCL12 on patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells, we treated GSCs with recombinant CXCL12 in cell culture media
Project description:Background: Mental Retardation occurs with the prevalence of 2%-3% of general population. Molecular karyotyping by 1-Mb resolution microarray revealed that pathological genomic imbalances were found in 14%-20% of MR. Aim: The aim of this study is to find the submicroscopic rearrangements in patient with MR using the custom BAC microarray (probe spacing at 0.75 Mb throughout the human genome). Conclusion: We identified approximate 2.0-Mb deletion on 9q33.3-q34.11 in a female with MR (Patient 1). Keywords: array CGH
Project description:Patient-derived cancer cells (PDCs) were established by three-dimensional (3D) spheroid culture from testicular germ cell tumor (GCT) specimens. Microarray expression analysis revealed that cancer stem-like cell-related genes were upregulated in 3D culture condition compared with two-dimensional (2D) culture condition.
