We grew Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms on CFBE41o- human airway cells in culture, and we treated these biofilms with tobramycin. Microarray analysis was performed to gain an understanding of the global transcriptional changes that occur during antibiotic treatment. Experiment Overall Design: We co...
Cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelial (CFBE41o-ΔF508) cells subjected to 23 bio-active small molecules including vehicle controls, at low temperature and untreated cells. Untreated Cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelial cells (CFBE41o−CFTR) are also included.
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder CF is caused by mutations of the gene encoding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein (CFTR), a transmembrane anion channel expressed at the apical membrane of several organs, including the epithelial cells of the airway. CFTR m...
The purpose of this study was to explore baseline expression of miRNome in Cystic Fibrosis Bronchial Epithelial (CFBE41o-) cells stably transfected with wild type (WT) Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance regulator (CFTR) and F508del-CFTR. To fulfill this goal miRNA sequencing was done to see m...
Comparison of overall tRNA level between HeLa, cystic fibrosis (CF) bronichal epithelial (CFBE41o-) cells and primary CF patient derived human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells, estimation of absolute HeLa tRNA levels.
In the clinical setting, mutations in the CFTR gene enhance the inflammatory response to P. aeruginosa (PA01) infection, but measurements of the inflammatory response to pathogen stimulation by isolated airway epithelia can yield variable results. In this series, we exposed CFBE41o- cells over-expre...
