Project description:Umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cells (UC-MSCs) were treated with different concentration with hIL10 and the influences on the secretome analyzed
Project description:Bone marrow-derived multipotent stromal cells (BM-MSCs) exhibit therapuetically valuable properties, including the capacity to differentiate into skeletal tissues and modulate immune system activity. These properties depend on proper regulation of dynamic gene expression in response to environmental and developmental stimuli. This study used chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled with human promoter tiling microarray analysis (ChIP-on-chip) to profile histones H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 at promoters genome-wide. The goal of the study was to identify gene promoters marked by H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 in BM-MSCs. ChIP-on-chip performed with antibodies to H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 on BM-MSCs from 3 different donors (labeled 1632, 167696, and 8F3560) and with technical replicates.
Project description:Peripheral infusion of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) can profoundly suppress the activation of c-Mos and remarkably improve hepatic histology, suppress the systemic inflammatory reaction, and promote animal survival in a large non-human primate model of acute liver failure (ALF). The mechanism through which hUC-MSCs inhibits c-Mos activation in vivo remains unclear. We hypothesized that hUC-MSCs can adaptively produce certain inhibitory cytokines in response to the pro-inflammatory microenvironment. To confirm this, we stimulated cultured hUC-MSCs with inflammatory monkey serum (serum isolated at day 1 following toxin challenge). After a 30-min stimulation, the cells were collected for microarray gene expression analysis. A whole human genome oligo microarray analysis was performed to reveal the altered gene expression profiles of the hUC-MSCs
Project description:AC16 cells were transfected with a plasmid designed to overexpress TRIM38, along with a negative control plasmid. After confirming successful transfection, the cells were stimulated with phenylephrine (PE) to induce a cardiac hypertrophy model. Subsequently, ubiquitination analysis was performed on both groups of cells

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression. Two-condition experiment, Normoxic MSCs vs. Hypoxic MSCs.
