Menin, the product of the MEN1 gene in humans (Men1 in mice), is responsible for the inherited tumor syndrome, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1). menin interacts with the trithorax group (trxG) proteins (Drosophila) and the mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL) (humans) histone methyltransferase (HMTase) complex, and it alters histone tail modifications and the transcription of target genes. To explore a potential functional implication of menin in HCC, we stably transfected HepG2 or L-02 cells with either vectors or constructs expressing MEN1. A cDNA microarray analysis was performed on HepG2 or L-02 cells with either vectors or constructs expressing MEN1. To obtain a broader understanding of the molecular network of menin in HCC, the whole genome microarray expression profiling was performed on HepG2 or L-02 cells with either vectors or constructs expressing MEN1. Overall design: Comparison of gene expression results from HepG2 or L-02 cells with either vectors or constructs expressing MEN1. Less...
