The cross-talk between mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and cancer cells remains controversial. It is imperative to understand how MSC and tumor cells communicate with each other and whether the MSC responds to the tumor according to its stage of progression.

View SamplesTransgenic KrasG12D mice can recapitulate pancreas intra-epithelial neoplasia (PanIN). Caerulein is a cholecystokinin analogue and induces acute pancreatitis when injected intra-abdominally. Caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis will accelerate PanIN progression in KrasG12D mice. We compared mRNA profile changes between KrasG12D mice with acute caerulein-induced pancreatitis and wild-type mice without acute pancreatitis.

View SamplesThe pathogenesis of endometriosis may result from aberrant angiogenesis that occurs in eutopic endometrium with retrograde menstruation. The difference in gene expression profile between human endometrial endothelial cells (HEECs) from eutopic endometria of patients with and without endometriosis would be determinant that affects the occurrence of endometriosis. To explore this kind of difference, we performed in vitro culture and identified their endothelial origin, as well as observed growth features of HEECs from the two different origins. Finally we identified the difference in gene expression profile when combined suppression subtractive hybridization(SSH) with genechip and confirmed the results by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The HEECs derived from endometriosis exhibited potent survival ability in vitro compared to that from non-endometriosis. We found that gremlin and fibronectin genes were up-regulated in HEECs derived from eutopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis when compared with that from patients without endometriosis. Our study implies that enhanced angiogenic capacity of eutopic HEECs may be an independent determinant in endometriotic aberrant angiogenesis in addition to the interaction of exfoliated endometrium and peritoneal environment elements such as activated macrophages and soluble cytokines.

View SamplesObjective: To identify differentially expressed long noncoding RNA in the eutopic endometrium tissue of adenomyosis on a genome-wide scale. Patient(s): Seventeen women with adenomyosis and fifteen patients without adenomyosis or endometriosis receiving surgical treatment. Intervention(s): Total RNAs containing long nocoding RNAs was extracted from endometrial tissue obtained during surgery. Main Outcome Measure(s): Differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs were detected by human lncRNA microarray. Result(s): We identified 165 lncRNAs and 612 mRNAs abnormally expressed (P<0.05) in the eutopic endometrium of adenomyosis. Conclusion(s): This study showed for the first time that the lncRNA expression profile was altered in women with adenomyosis.
