The dermal papilla (DP) of the hair follicle plays crucial roles in the hair follcie morphogenesis and cycling. Thus, the elucication of human DP molecular signature is of great interest. DP cell culture by conventional method impairs intrinsic properties of DP cells.

View SamplesMany neural progenitor cells present in the fetus, but also in adult brain, which play a major role for the reproduction for healingin regeneration of neuronal cells, when differentiated cells are damaged. However, effects of radiation effect on undifferentiated neural progenitor cells remained unclear. The radiation doses of medical exposure, pollution by nuclear power plant accidents, and other exposure of workers; medical workers, airline crews, and astronaut have been focused. In this study, we report the effects of low- to middle- dose doses of radiation on cultured human neural progenitor cells (hNPC) differentiated derived from embryonic stem (ES) cells, which are partially compared with those of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC).

View SamplesMutant p53 proteins, resulting from the missense mutations of the TP53 tumor suppressor gene, possess gain-of-function activities and are among the most robust oncoproteins in human tumors. They are potentially important therapeutic targets. No studies to date have distinguished common, therapeutically relevant mutant p53 gain-of-function effects from effects specific to different mutant variants and cell backgrounds. here we performed RNA-seq analysisin MDA-MB-231 (R280K) upon silencing TP53 or the control siRNA. Overall design: MDA-MB-231 (R280K) cell line was transfected with control or p53 siRNA.So The study comprises one experimental cell line,in triplicate.

View SamplesThe tumor suppressor p53 is a transcription factor that coordinates the cellular response to DNA damage. Here we provide an integrated analysis of p53 genomic occupancy and p53-dependent gene regulation in the splenic B and non-B cell compartments of mice exposed to whole-body ionizing radiation, providing insight into general principles of p53 activity in vivo. In unstressed conditions, p53 bound few genomic targets; induction of p53 by ionizing radiation increased the number of p53 bound sites, leading to highly overlapping profiles in the different cell types. Comparison of these profiles with chromatin features in unstressed B cells revealed that, upon activation, p53 localized at active promoters, distal enhancers, and a smaller set of unmarked distal regions. At promoters, recognition of the canonical p53 motif as well as binding strength were associated with p53-dependent transcriptional activation, but not repression, indicating that the latter was most likely indirect. p53-activated targets constituted the core of a cell type-independent response, superimposed onto a cell type-specific program. Core response genes included most of the known p53-regulated genes, as well as many new ones. Our data represent a unique characterization of the p53-regulated response to ionizing radiation in vivo.

View SamplesPeriodontitis is the most common human infection affecting tooth-supporting structures. It was shown to play a role in aggravating atherosclerosis. To deepen our understanding of the pathogenesis of this disease, we exposed human macrophages to an oral bacteria Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) either as live bacteria, or its lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or fimbria.

View SamplesThe oocytes of many species, both invertebrate and vertebrate, contain a large collection of localized determinants in the form of proteins and translationally inactive maternal mRNAs. However, it is unknown whether mouse oocytes contain localized MmRNA determinants and what mechanisms might be responsible for their control. We collected intact MII oocytes, enucleated MII oocyte cytoplasts (with the spindle removed), and spindle-chromosome complexes which had been microsurgically removed. RNA was extracted, amplified, labeled, and applied to microarrays to determine if any MmRNA determinants were localized to the SCC.
