Project description:We investigated transcriptional response of CaCo-2 cells to iron treatments, we studied hemin effect by adding hemin to DMEM-FBS medium and iron deficiency effects in using an iron free medium compared to the same supplemented with FAC (ferric ammonium citrate). Keywords: various iron treatment, differential gene expression, hemin treatment, iron-free
Project description:We investigated transcriptional response of CaCo-2 cells to iron treatments, we studied hemin effect by adding hemin to DMEM-FBS medium and iron deficiency effects in using an iron free medium compared to the same supplemented with FAC (ferric ammonium citrate). Experiment Overall Design: Biological replicates were used (3 samples) of each iron treatments (SF-FAC, SF-0, DMEM-FBS, DMEM-Hemin). Each sample was labelled with cy5 and a pool of each sample was constituted and labelled with cy3.
Project description:Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease characterized by airway inflammation and remodeling. The role of 15-oxo-5Z,8Z,11Z,13E-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-oxoETE), a 15-HETE metabolite catalyzed by 15-prostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH), has been relatively unexplored in asthma. In this study, we used RNA-seq to explore the effect of 15-KETE on the transcriptome of airway epithelial cells, aiming to identify its potential downstream targets and mechanisms of action.
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.

Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression. Two-condition experiment, Normoxic MSCs vs. Hypoxic MSCs.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
