Effect of TP53 on gene expressions in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines
The incidence of TP53 loss-of-function in hepatocellular carcinoma is very high. In order to clarify the gene expression differences induced by the changes of TP53 gene, we used two human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, SK-HEP-1 and Hep 3B with TP53 knockdown or overexpression for RNA sequencing . SK-HEP-1 is a TP53 wild-type hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. Thus, we knockdown TP53 in SK-HEP-1. Hep 3B is a TP53 loss-of-function hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. Thus, we overexpress TP53 in Hep 3B. Results of RNA-seq analysis showed the differences after knocking-down or overexpressing TP53. Overall design: In order to clarify the gene expression differences induced by the changes of TP53 gene, we used two human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, SK-HEP-1 and Hep 3B with TP53 knockdown or overexpression for RNA sequencing . SK-HEP-1 is a TP53 wild-type hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. Thus, we knockdown TP53 in SK-HEP-1. Hep 3B is a TP53 loss-of-function hepatocellular carcinoma cell line.
