Analysis of transcriptional changes upon persistent heat stress with emphasis on epigenetically regulated genes
Epigenetic regulation of repetitive elements is attenuated by prolonged heat stress in Arabidopsis.

View SamplesTo investigate the function of CITED1 in melanoma, its expression was transiently down regulated using CITED1-targeting siRNA. The HT144 melanoma cell line was chosen as it had a relatively high level of detectable CITED1 mRNA and protein expression.
Loss of CITED1, an MITF regulator, drives a phenotype switch in vitro and can predict clinical outcome in primary melanoma tumours.

View Samples4 replicates were prepared from A2058 melanoma cells [transfected with 10ng of empty vector (pcDNA3.1+)] and treated with 5ng/ml TGF1 or vehicle control for 24hrs

View SamplesDifferences in the amount of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) that persists into adulthood affect the severity of sickle cell disease and the beta-thalassemia syndromes. Genetic association studies have identified sequence variants in the gene BCL11A that influence HbF levels. Here we examine BCL11A as a potential regulator of HbF expression. The high HbF BCL11A genotype is associated with reduced BCL11A expression. Moreover, abundant expression of full-length forms of BCL11A is developmentally restricted to adult erythroid cells. Down-regulation of BCL11A expression in primary adult erythroid cells leads to robust HbF expression. Consistent with a direct role of BCL11A in globin gene regulation, we find that BCL11A occupies several discrete sites in the beta-globin gene cluster. BCL11A emerges as a therapeutic target for reactivation of HbF in beta-hemoglobin disorders.
