Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) have been shown to play crucial roles in tumorigenesis. Little is known about lncRNA RAD51-AS1 in diseases. Here, we investigated the role of RAD51-AS1 in Epithelial ovarian cancer. Silencing RAD51-AS1 inhibited proliferation through cell cycle arrest and promotion in apoptosis, both in vitro and in vivo. But the mechanism of RAD51-AS1 downstream regulation remains unclear.
E2F1-regulated long non-coding RNA RAD51-AS1 promotes cell cycle progression, inhibits apoptosis and predicts poor prognosis in epithelial ovarian cancer.

View SamplesEndometriosis is a common gynecological condition with an unclear pathogenesis. Changes in lncRNA expression profiles may influence this disease, while relevant investigation remains insufficient. To describe the different lncRNA and mRNA expression patterns between endometriosis and a control group, eutopic and normal endometrium in the proliferative phase were analyzed using RNA sequencing.

View Samplesnulliparous cd1 female mice were mated. Twenty four hours after detecting hte vaginal plug , the animals were laparatomized and the uterine lumen were transiently-transfected with plasmid harboring HOXA10 or control. Forty eight hours later, the uteri were morcellated in trizol and the RNA was extracted per Trizol protocol. Total RNA was then submitted for microarray analysis

View SamplesThe experimental design was based on a control mouse vs. knockout mouse with Exons 6 and 7 of Rbpj gene being deleted in uterus. The samples were collected from mice uterus on postpartum day 3. The sampling region is described as nodal region where the previous pregnancy placentas were attached to the uterus. The goal of this study is to identify role of Rbpj in postpartum repair of uterine endometrium.

View SamplesDuring pregnancy, the myometrium remains quiescent but at term, switches to a state capable of producing a series of coordinated contractions for the delivery of the fetus. Myometrial contractions of labour signify the normal physiological end-point of pregnancy but the biochemical onset of labour may occur at or before term via a series of changes in expression of labour associated genes that are responsible for controlling the activity of the uterus during pregnancy and parturition. There is increasing evidence that components of the cAMP-signalling pathway are up-regulated in the human myometrium during pregnancy to promote the relaxation of the myometrium until term. Our aim was to determine which cAMP-associated genes are important during pregnancy and parturition by exposing myometrial cells to forskolin and performing an a gene array. We then plan to study the trend of the cAMP-associated genes at different stages of gestation and during labour.

View SamplesFor quantification of RNA transcript using RT-qPCR data, normalization of the data by the internal control reference genes is often required. However, it has been demonstrated that a proper choice of reference genes is highly dependent on the tissues or cells being investigated. It has also been known that reference genes are highly specific for a particular experimental model, and validation for each situation, on an individual basis, is essential. Currently, there is a lack of data on reference genes that are suitable for normalization of RT-qPCR data in the blood circulation of pregnant women. The objective of this study is to identify reference genes in maternal blood based on the whole-transcriptome data of 19 maternal whole blood samples, sequenced on the HiSeq-4000 platform in two libraries (technical replicates) per sample.
