Data Paper Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Small Rna Data Set That Includes Trna-Derived Fragments From Jurkat Cells Treated With Camptothecin(Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Coşacak, Mehmet İlyas; Erdoğan, İpek; Akgül, Bünyamin; Akgül, Bünyamin; Erdoğan, İpek; Nalbant Aldanmaz, Ayten; 04.03. Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this article, we report a small RNA data set obtained from human T cell acute leukemia Jurkat cells, which were treated with the universal apoptotic agent camptothecin. Based on the Annexin-V labeling pattern, we sorted two Jurkat subpopulations in treated cells: one that is sensitive to the drug and the other being relatively more resistant. We report new original data that include the frequency of tRNA-derived fragments (tRF) in drug-sensitive and resistant cells. We also present partially analyzed data to show the origin of reads on tRNAs as well as the borders of the fragments. We believe that this data can benefit the science community working in the field of tRF and/or apoptosis.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Targeting Foxm1 Transcription Factor in T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cell Line(Elsevier Ltd., 2015) Tüfekçi, Özlem; Kartal Yandım, Melis; Baran, Yusuf; İrken, Gülersu; Baran, Yusuf; 04.03. Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe Forkhead box protein M1 (FoxM1) is an important transcription factor having significant roles in various cellular events. FoxM1 overexpression has been reported to be related with many types of cancer. However, it is not known whether it contributes to oncogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Siomycin A, a thiazol antibiotic, is known to inhibit FoxM1 transcriptional activity. In this study, we aimed to determine gene expression levels of FoxM1 in Jurkat cells (T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line) and therapeutic potential of targeting FoxM1 by siomycin A alone and in combination with dexamethasone which improves the survival of children with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). We also examined the molecular mechanisms of siomycin A and dexamethasone-induced cell death in Jurkat cells. We demonstrated that FoxM1 mRNA is highly expressed in Jurkat cells. Dexamethasone and siomycin A caused a significant reduction in gene expression levels of FoxM1 in Jurkat cells. Targeting FoxM1 by siomycin A and dexamethasone caused a significant decrease in T-ALL cell line proliferation through induction of G1 cell cycle arrest. All these findings suggest a possible role of FoxM1 in T-cell ALL pathogenesis and represent FoxM1 as an attractive target for T-cell ALL therapy. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
