To understand the therapeutic mechanisms of QHD, we examined the effects of QHD treatment on the liver transcriptomes of NAFLD rats and identified multiple therapeutic targets of QHD.

View SamplesMetformin is effective for prevention or treatment of various tumors. There are a lot of studies on the underlying mechanisms of metformin as respect to its anti-tumor action.
Metformin suppressed the proliferation of LoVo cells and induced a time-dependent metabolic and transcriptional alteration.

View SamplesADMA is an endogenous metabolite, which is elevated in cancer patients. Previously, we observed that ADMA treatment attenuated serum starvation-induced apoptosis in LoVo cells. However, the biological functions of ADMA in tumor cells are largely unknown. In current study, we used microarray and untargeted metabolic profiling to investigate the global impacts of ADMA on LoVo cells.

View SamplesRaptor deficient mice showed diabetic phenotype, to dissect the effect of hyperglycemia, we isolated euglycemic 2-week-old β cells to perform microarray.
Raptor determines β-cell identity and plasticity independent of hyperglycemia in mice.

View SamplesVasculogenic mimicry has been generally accepted as a new form of tumor vascularization and regarded as an unfavorable prognostic factor in multiple aggressive malignancies. We previously reported the presence of vasculogenic mimicry in osteosarcoma patients. The mechanistic basis for osteosarcoma VM remains unclear.

View SamplesPrimary uncultured CD31+ and CD105+ tumor endothelial cells (TEC), non-tumor endothelial cells (NEC) ,remnant cells from tumor (TC) and non-tumor liver tissue (NTC)of HCC tissues from patientswere isolated by magnetic-activated cell sorting. Affymetrix Human Gene ST Arrays were used to determine gene expression profiles of HCC cells and matched TEC and NEC cells.

View SamplesTriple-negative breast cancer is a typical molecular subtype of breast cancer that lacks the expression of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 which is also well known for its aggressive and metastatic clinical characteristics. Currently, no specific targeted therapy is available for TNBC. CD4+ T cells are critical regulators of immune responses but their role in breast cancer is currently unknown. Therefore, we investigated the gene expression profile of tumor infiltrating CD4+ T cells and to predict their potential roles in modulating antitumor immune function. As a result, abundant Treg and exhausted lymphocytes were detected, accompanied by largely decreased of effector/memory and cytotoxic T cells.

View SamplesTranscriptional profiling of human acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) CD34+ cells treated with 5 M fenretinide. Two timepoints included are 6h, 12h, covering the apoptosis-induction time window of AML CD34+ cells responsing to the fenretinide treatment. We studied gene expression series in human AML CD34+ cells with or without 5 M fenretinide treatment by cDNA microarray analysis. Several signal transduction pathways are involve, including stress response, NF-kappaB inhibition and p53 inhibition (p<0.05). These findings indicate fenretinide may represent a promising candidate for targeting AML-initiating cells.
Preferential eradication of acute myelogenous leukemia stem cells by fenretinide.
