Senescence in WI-38 cell context was induce by RASv12 over expression Cellular senescence is a permanent cell cycle arrest that is triggered by cancer- initiating or promoting events in mammalian cells and is now considered a major tumour suppressor mechanism. Here, we did a transcriptomic analysis and compared WI-38 contol wich is a human fibroblaste cell line and WI-38 that overexpressed RASv12 a G protein that induce senescence. The goal of our project is to compare transciptomic profile of human growing fibroblast (WI-38 control) and senescent human fibroblast (WI-38 OERAS)
Senescence is an endogenous trigger for microRNA-directed transcriptional gene silencing in human cells.

View SamplesIn humans, there are four Ago proteins (Ago1–4) and AGO1- and 2 were previously implicated in TGS induced by exogenous siRNAs and microRNAs (miRs) directed against gene promoter transcripts via promotion of changes in histone covalent modifications and DNA methylation. Not-with-standing, many mechanistic details of this process remain poorly defined in human cells, and very little is known about the identity of possible endogenous signals, which may drive this process in human cells. Given the evolutionary conserved role of siRNAs and AGO proteins in TGS and heterochromatin formation, we set out to analyse their possible involvement in senesence-associated repression of E2F target genes. To obtain a detailed picture of AGO-immunoprecipitating miRs (RIP) in senescent cells, we used next-generation sequencing (NGS)(RIP-Seq). We also included histone H3 dimethylated on lysine 9 (H3K9me2) in this analysis to assign potential AGO2-interacting miRs to a repressive chromatin state and unfractionated, cellular RNA from senescent cells for normalisation. Overall design: Determination of AGO AGO-immunoprecipitating miRs in WI-38 senescent human fibroblast

View SamplesMost human cancers present hyperactivated sumoylation, and cancer cell lines are usually highly sensitive to the lack of it, supporting potential application of sumoylation chemical inhibitors in cancer therapy. Here, we explored the impact of hyposumoylation (Ubc9 haploinsufficiency) on cancer development in mice using Apc loss-driven intestinal tumorigenesis model.
An unanticipated tumor-suppressive role of the SUMO pathway in the intestine unveiled by Ubc9 haploinsufficiency.

View SamplesThe Lgr5+ intestinal stem cell, Paneth and transit-amplifying cell compartment constitute the intestinal crypt which is the constant source of differentiated epithelial cells that replenish the intestinal villi ensuring organ maintenance and regeneration. The Lgr5+ crypt-based columnar (CBC) cells have been identified as the intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and, importantly, as cells-of-origin of intestinal cancer.

View SamplesIn the present study, we investigated the consequences of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) depletion on hepatic lipid metabolism in mice fed during three months with a diet presenting a high n-6/n-3 PUFA ratio to induce n-3 PUFA depletion. Microarray analyses were performed to identify the molecular targets involved in the development of hepatic steatosis associated with n-3 PUFA depletion.

View SamplesBone marrow derived dendritic cells were generated from Ubc9[fl;-] and Ubc9[+/+] mice. After in vitro derivation in the presence of GM-CSF, dendritic cells were treated with tamoxifen for four days to cause CreERT2 activation, and induce Ubc9 floxed allele deletion. This allowed comparative transcriptomic analysis of Ubc9[+/+] and Ubc9[-/-] dendritic cells unstimulated or stimulated with 10ng/ml LPS for one hour and six hours.

View SamplesWe investigate the contribution of IRE1 signaling to the modulation of U87 glioma cells transcriptome upon various stresses. To this end, IRE1 control and IRE1 dominant negative expressing U87 glioma cells were subjected to environmental or chemical challenges and their transcriptome monitored using Affymetrix microarrays.

View SamplesTotal RNA was extracted from apratoxin A or vehicle treated HT29 cells using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). Probe values from CEL files were condensed to probe sets using Rosetta Resolver software. Resolver ANOVA analysis was then performed between groups.

View SamplesGlioblastoma multiforme is the most lethal form of glioma with an overall survival at 5 years nearly null, which mainly results from acquired resistance to therapies. Large scale sequencing studies on human cancer biopsies defined IRE1alpha as the fifth most oncogenic mutated kinase in human cancer. IRE1alpha is a major component of the Unfolded Protein Response signaling and increasing evidence suggests that it is a central player in GBM development.
Dual IRE1 RNase functions dictate glioblastoma development.
