Gene expression data in U87MG cell line transfected with miR-490 overexpression vector PC-490 or its control PCDNA3.1 (+).

miR-490 is robustly downregulated in GBM tumour samples. This study identifies the genes differentially expressed upon miR-490 overexpression in U87MG glioblastoma cell line. GeneChip PrimeView Human Gene Expression Array was used to assess mRNA expression profile in response to miR-490 overexpression in U87MG cell line. U87MG cells were transfected with either miR-490 overexpression vector PC-490 or its control vector PCDNA. The cells were harvested for RNA isolation 48 hours post-transfection. RNA was used for the gene expression analysis using GeneChip PrimeView system.
