Project description:No consensus treatment regime exists beyond surgery for malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours (MPNST), and the purpose of the present study was to find new approaches to stratify patients with good and poor prognosis and to better guide therapeutic intervention for this aggressive soft tissue cancer. Genome-wide RNA expression was analysed for 30 MPNSTs and eight neurofibromas from Scandinavian patients, and the overall gene expression in these two groups were compared in order to identify prognostic markers.

Project description:The β-adrenergic receptor signaling pathway is a major component of adaptive thermogenesis in brown and white adipose tissue during cold acclimation. The β-AR activation highly induces transcriptional coactivator PGC-1α and its splice variant N-terminal (NT)-PGC-1α, promoting the transcription program of mitochondrial biogenesis and thermogenesis. In the present study, we evaluated the role of NT-PGC-1α in brown adipocyte energy metabolism by genome-wide profiling of NT-PGC-1α-responsive genes. Canonical pathway analysis revealed that a number of genes upregulated by NT-PGC-1α are highly enriched in mitochondrial pathways including fatty acid transport and β-oxidation, TCA cycle and electron transport system, thus reinforcing the crucial role of NT-PGC-1α in the enhancement of mitochondrial function. Moreover, gene expression profiling of NT-PGC-1α revealed activation of distinct metabolic pathways such as glucose, lipid and nucleotide metabolism and of signaling pathways such as RAR and PPAR-γ/RXRα activation in brown adipocytes. Together, our data strengthen our previous findings that NT-PGC-1α is a key regulator of mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and thermogenesis in brown adipocytes and further suggest that NT-PGC-1α influences a broader spectrum of thermogenic processes to meet cellular needs for adaptive thermogenesis. Two samples from two groups: NT-PGC-1α overexpression and empty vector. There are technical replicates (A and B) for each group. Two RNA samples were pooled for each group.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to have important functions in a variety of cellular processes. Here we report on miRNA expression and their dynamic regulation during mouse oogenesis and early embryos. We show that following specific deletion of Dicer from growing oocytes, the mutant oocytes cease development and were unable to progress through the first cell division. While the mutant mature oocytes seemed morphologically normal, they had disorganized spindle. Using detailed single cell cDNA microarray analysis of normal versus mutant oocytes, we found that a large proportion of maternal genes, including C-mos, are under the control of miRNAs. This study provides strong evidence that maternal miRNAs are essential for the earliest stages of mouse embryonic development. mRNA expression was compared with miRNA expression in dicer knockout and wild-type mouse mature oocyte.

Project description:To analyze the effect of Glycoprotein 130 in small diameter sensory neurons, dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of conditional SNS-gp130-/- and control (gp130fl/fl) mice were collected and mRNA expression profiles were compared between the two groups. DRG samples of two littermate mice were always pooled and a total of 10 gp130fl/fl and 10 SNS-gp130-/- mice were divided into 5 groups per genotype. Expression of transcripts were analyzed using the Applied Biosystems microarray platform AB1700 (Mouse Genome Survey Microarray V2.0).

Project description:Global gene expression analysis was performed on a panel of 23 osteosarcoma samples of primary and metastatic origin using the Applied Biosystems Gene Expression Array System. When comparing the primary tumours with the metastases, we found a significantly increased expression of genes involved in immunological processes, e.g. coding for cytokines and chemokines, in the metastatic samples, suggesting that these signal molecules play an important role in promoting metastasis. In addition, a comparison of the gene expression in primary samples from patients with or without metastases demonstrated that patients who later developed metastases had high expression of the chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4), similar to the metastatic samples. Increased knowledge of mechanisms and interactions between specified molecular signalling pathways in osteosarcomas could lead to a more rational strategy for development of targeted therapy. Total RNA was isolated from tumor tissue of osteosarcoma patients. Gene expression patterns of metastatic versus primary samples were compared, as well as primary samples from patients who did or did not later develop metastases.

Project description:We used DNA microarray technology to assess changes in gene expression after treatment of 11 lymphoma cell lines with epigenetic drugs. We identified genes with upregulated expression in treated cell lines and with downregulated expression in B-cell lymphoma patient samples when compared to normal B cells. CD19+ b cells were isolated from buffy coats from diffrent healthy donors. Gene expression of healthy controls (CD19+ b cells) was used as a normal counterpart for lymphoma samples (GSE4732, GSE10846).

Project description:The decision of metazoan cells to live or undergo programmed cell death hinges on the balance between the levels of pro- versus anti-apoptotic gene products. The general RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription factor, TFIID, plays a central role in the regulation of gene expression through its core promoter recognition and co-activator functions. The core TFIID subunit TAF6 is a co-activator for the pro-apoptotic p53 tumour suppressor protein. Our previous studies identified a specialized isoform of TAF6, termed TAF6 that can specifically be induced in apoptosis. To elucidate the impact of TAF6 on gene expression and cell death, we employed modified antisense oligonucleotides to enforce expression of endogenous TAF6. The induction of endogenous TAF6 triggered apoptosis in several cancer cell lines. Importantly, TAF6 also induces apoptosis in tumor cell lines devoid of p53, placing TAF6 function downstream of p53. Microarray experiments uncovered a TAF6-induced transcriptome landscape displaying enhanced expression of genes of the Notch, oxidative stress, integrin, p53 and apoptosis pathways. Our data show that the TAF6 pathway is a pivotal signalling nexus that controls pro-apoptotic gene expression programs.

Project description:Whole blood rather than purified peripheral blood mononuclear cells is likely to become the prime tissue using expression microarrays for disease predication or prognosis however excess of globin mRNA may reduce probe detection sensitivity. In our study, we assessed whether whole-blood or globin-reduced RNA gives the most robust and sensitive results to detect small gene expression changes in response to hormone replacement therapy exposure. Each sample (N = 12) were hybridized according to 3 different protocols: no globin reduction (controls), globin reduction using peptid nucleic acids (PNA) and using magnetic beads in the GlobinClear kit from Ambion. Finally, 7 and 4 technical replicates were conducted in no globin reduction and PNA groups, respectively. Both globin reduction approaches were mostly efficient at reducing globin RNA from cRNA. Samples processed by GlobinClear kit gave a very distinct gene expression profiles from the controls while samples processed with PNA gave an intermediary profile closest to the non globin reduction group with a slight increased sensitivity of transcript detection but a loss of reproducibility. Overall, no sign of higher sensitivity in detection of gene expression changes followed by hormone exposure was observed after globin reduction which was therefore judged not beneficial. Keywords: Groups comparaison To assess effect of globin reduction protocols on gene expression from whole-blood, we selected 12 postmenopausal women (6 HRT users and 6 non-HRT users) who were not using other medication than HRT at the time of blood sampling and in order to cover a wide body mass index (BMI) range in both HRT and non HRT users. The samples were also selected to contain the highest concentration of total extracted RNA. Each sample was hybridized according to 3 different protocols: no globin reduction (controls), globin reduction using PNAs, globin reduction using magnetic beads in the GlobinClear™ kit from Ambion. The reproducibility of the globin reduction method compared to the non globin reduction approach was investigated for the PNA method only since this method was the most effective and specific. We planned to conduct 7 technical replicates in each group (i.e. no globin reduction and PNA groups). During amplification process with PNA, 4 samples failed to reverse transcript long fragment of mRNA certainly due to inhibitory contamination and these arrays were therefore excluded from our analyses. One sample (sample 34) was amplified with PNA twice the same day to study technical reproducibility without amplification date effect. Finally, a total of 47 arrays were conducted including 7 and 4 technical replicates in no globin reduction and PNA group, respectively.
