Analysis of gene expression in SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells after knockdown of the long non-coding RNA DNM3OS

RNA-sequencing was performed to gain insight into the mechanism responsible for the mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET) induced by loss of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) DNM3OS in SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells. Following siRNA-mediated knockdown of DNM3OS or non-targeting control, RNA-sequencing was performed. This high-throughput data revealed knockdown of DNM3OS down-regulated the expression of genes and pathways known to induce EMT in ovarian cancer. Overall design: DNM3OS was knockdown in SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells and gene expression profiles were compared with controls using RNA-sequencing.
