To identify biomarkers regulated by traditional Chinese medicine Astragalus membranaceus Fischer Bge. var. mongolicus Bge. Hsiao in colorectal cancer. We have identified several differentially expressed genes including microRNAs using Affymetrix HTA-2.0 array.
An in vivo molecular response analysis of colorectal cancer treated with Astragalus membranaceus extract.

View SamplesWe are studying a tumor suppressor gene, von Hippel-Lindau (VHL). In humans, VHL mutations cause renal cell carcinoma of the clear cell type (ccRCC). We have generated a knockout mouse strain in which mouse Vhl is conditionally deleted in the kidney epithelium (that is, a subset of tubules including collecting ducts and ascending loop of Henle). Instead of ccRCC, these mice developed severe inflammation and fibrosis, accompanied by hyperplasia and the appearance of transformed clear cells. These phenotypes therefore support the notion that inflammation is the tissue precondition of cancer. Our hypothesis is that VHL loss-of-function-induced inflammation contribute to the initiation of carcinogenesis, through a mechanism that we want to determine. The aim of the microarray is to identify genes involved in the overgrowth of the epithelium, as well as in inflammation and fibrosis that may be important for ccRCC initiation.

View SamplesTo detect the effect of early culture on hESCs, almost all initial-passaged hESCs have normal expression of DLK1-DIO3 gene cluster, the low-passaged hESCs lost the expression of DLK1-DIO3 gene cluster.
Physiological oxygen prevents frequent silencing of the DLK1-DIO3 cluster during human embryonic stem cells culture.

View SamplesNasopharyngeal carcinoma is an Epstein-Barr virus-associated epithelial cancer with high prevalence in Southeast Asia. mRNA expression levels were measured for essentially all human genes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissue samples and normal nasopharyngeal tissues. Data were analyzed for differential gene expression between tumor and normal tissue.
Upregulated long non-coding RNA AFAP1-AS1 expression is associated with progression and poor prognosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

View SamplesYes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) is an effector of Hippo pathway, which is critical for regulating organ size, cell proliferation and tumor growth in mammals. YAP1 is known to be involved in tumorigenesis in several tissues, yet its role in colorectal cancer(CRC) is not established. To investigate the effect of YAP1 in CRC, we used microarrays to compared human colon cancer cell line HCT116 transfected with a control non-targeting siRNA to cells and transfected with siRNA targeting YAP1.
MiR-590-5p, a density-sensitive microRNA, inhibits tumorigenesis by targeting YAP1 in colorectal cancer.

View SamplesMost of the NPC patients suffer from local recurrences and distant metastases within 1.5 years after radiotherapy due to radioresistance. Distinct patterns of gene expression and signatures were found in NPC, and have been used to associate them with cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and metastasis, but few gene expression profiling studies have been focused on the tumor radioresistance.We used gene expression microarray analyses to identify the difference of mRNA in radioresistant NPC CNE2-IR cells and radiosensitive CNE2 cells.
