Expression data from BEAS-2B cells II. Expression data from BEAS-2B cells II

BEAS-2B cells are human bronchial epithelial cells, and often used as a in vitro model for the detection of potential pulmonary toxicity of chemicals. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes after treated with chemical substance Overall design: BEAS-2B cells were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We tested the expression data of BEAB-2B cells treated with different sizes of silica nanoparticles suspended in DMEM or DMEM only as normal control.
