Expression data from Neuro2a mouse neuroblastoma cell lines, anchorage dependent cells (AD) and anchorage-independent tumorspheres (AI)

ABSTRACT: The ability of high-risk neuroblastoma to survive unfavorable growth conditions and multimodal therapy is hypothesized to result from a phenomenon known as reversible adaptive plasticity (RAP). RAP is a novel phenomenon enabling neuroblastoma cells to transition between a proliferative anchorage dependent (AD) state and a slow growing anoikis-resistant anchorage independent (AI) state. We used microarrays to investigate the global gene expression profiles in AD and AI cells, and to identify the differential expressed genes within signaling pathways contributing to the reversible adaptive plasticity between AD and AI cells. Comparison of microarray data from AD cells (n=4 independent cultures) versus AI cells (n=4 independent cultures) were performed using Partek Genomics Suite 6.5. Differentially expressed genes with an FDR M-bM-^IM-$5% and a fold-change M-bM-^IM-%1.5 were selected for pathway analysis.

Project description:In a transcriptome based trail, we figured out that the deletion of luxS has a massive influence to cell growth and metabolism of Streptococcus sanguinis SK36. The biofilm defective luxS deletion mutant was comlemented by transgenic sahH from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Thus 209 of 216 influenced genes of the luxS mutant compared to the isogenic wildype were restored in their expression (fold change of n M-bM-^IM-% 3; p M-bM-^IM-$ 0.05), including genes involved in cell division processes, stress response and catabolite control. Phenotypically, the reduced biofilm depth of S. sanguinis SR DELTAluxS was elevated to wild type level by the complementation with sahH. Neither the addition of physiological concentrated artificial autoinducer 2 (AI-2) to the culture of S. sanguinis SR DELTAluxS nor the presence of the wild type strain in a trans-well assay had a cumulative effect on biofilm thickness of the luxS mutant. Furthermore, we identified 9 genes in the sahH complemented luxS mutant, which were regulated directly by AI-2 (fold change M-bM-^IM-% 3; p M-bM-^IM-$ 0.05), amongst them genes involved in competence development. So we concluded that AI-2 has no influence on biofilm growth, but regulative functions in competence development in S. sanguinis. Further, we figured out the suitability of transgenic sahH for the complementation of the interrupted Pfs/LuxS pathway without restoration of AI-2 release acquiring an essential tool for further investigations on AI-2. Aim: Is the presence of AI-2 necessary for the biofilm formation of S. sanguinis SK36? What is the impact of a deletion of luxS, is a disrupted activated methionine cycle the reason for the hampered biofilm depth causes by its inactivation? Materials and Methods: S. sanguinis SK36, S. sanguinis SR M-NM-^TluxS, and S. sanguinis SR M-NM-^TluxS/sahH were grown in CDM/sucrose for 24 h anaerobically; biofilm depth was measured by safranine and crystal violet stain. Biofilm morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. The AI-2 release was monitored hourly to identify the time period of its release. For transcriptome analysis total RNA was isolated after 8 hours of growth and used for microarray analysis. The chip study used total RNA recovered from S. sanguinis SK36, its luxS mutant, and the sahH complementated luxS mutant. Gene expression analysis was done with three independent replicates, each. Chip content: 10186 genes (1883 genes of P. gingivalis W83, 1964 genes of F. nucleatum DSMZ 25586, 2244 genes of S. sanguinis SK36, 2168 genes of A. actinomycetemcomitans HK1651, 1927 genes of S. mutans UA159) with up to thirteen 60-mer probes per gene, with three-fold technical redundancy and additionally 3510 random sequence probe. In this study only the S. sanguinis and RANDOM probes were used for analysis.

Project description:Corpus luteum (CL) is a transient endocrine tissue formed from the remnants of the ovarian follicle after ovulation. In response to gonadotropin surge, the ovulating follicle undergoes dramatic changes in expression of genes and differentiation of follicular cells into luteal cells. In several species, of the several genes that are down- regulated post ovulation, Cyp19A1 that codes for aromatase, essential for biosynthesis of estradiol- 17M-NM-2 (E2), also get down- regulated but appears to get up- regulated at later time points in the estrous cycle to have critical role in E2 secretion. In primates and rodents, higher expression and higher E2 levels has been observed in CL. Surprisingly, in the recently carried out gene expression profiling of PGF2M-NM-1- induced luteolysis studies in the bovine species [GSE27961], it was observed that expression of one of the earliest genes that was down- regulated was Cyp19A1 in the CL. However, the specific role of E2 in the regulation of CL function remains poorly defined. Thus, in the present study, efforts were made to examine the temporal changes in the global gene expression profile in the CL of pregnant rats after treatment with aromatase inhibitor (AI), Anastrozole, and E2 supplementation. The results obtained will further expand our knowledge on E2 target/responsive genes and the basic mechanism(s) that regulates the CL function. Key words: CL, E2, AI, Gene expression The objective of this study was to identify the effect of E2 deprivation and supplementation on CL function and temporal changes in the transcriptome of pregnant rat CL during day 12 to 16 of pregnancy following E2 deprivation by Anastrozole (AI, Aromatase inhibitor) treatment in pregnant rats, AI (1mg/ kg bw orally) treatment beginning on day 12 daily for 4 days. In the E2 supplementation experiments, together with AI, the rats were treated with E2 (10M-BM-5g/ day s.c.). CL tissues were collected on day 12 (no treatment; n=3 animals/ time point), day 16 (vehicle treatment; n=3 animals/ time point), day 16 (AI treatment; n=3 animals/ time point) and day 16 (AI+ E2 treatment; n=3 animals/ time point) to examine gene expression changes associated with E2 deprivation and recovery in the system. Following retrieval of CL from the ovary, corpora lutea were flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -70oC for the purpose of RNA isolation. The isolated RNA was labelled and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. Rat Gene 1.0 ST arrays as per the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions.
