Project description:The aim of the study was to determine B6 and BXD2 mouse sera IgG and IgM reactivity to linear peptide epitopes at different ages. Serum from B6 or BXD2 mice was diluted at 1:200 for IgG-specific analysis or 1:1000 for IgM specific analysis and incubated on a PEPperPRINT peptide microarray platform printed with peptide autoantigens. 80 pre-selected peptides based on a previous screen of pooled mouse serum BXD2 against the PEPperCHIP® Autoimmunity Microarray with 2,733 linear B-cell epitopes were printed in duplicate in 16 copies on a custom PEPperCHIP® Peptide Microarray. Flag (DYKDDDDKGG) and HA (YPYDVPDYAG) control peptides (10 spots each control) were randomly distributed in each array copy as controls. Sera from 2, 5, or 9 month old B6 or BXD2 mice was profiled for anti-mouse IgG or IgM-specific analysis of autoantibody reactivity to the peptide auto-epitopes.

Project description:Expression levels of proteins and phosphoproteins, covering major cancer signaling pathways with a special focus on breast cancer biology, were obtained for a series of 109 breast cancer tumor specimens with positive estrogen receptor status. Tumor specimens from patients diagnosed with primary invasive breast carcinoma were collected at the time of surgery between 2008 and 2010 at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics / National Center for Tumor Diseases Heidelberg. None of the patients had received neoadjuvant therapy. Institutional Review Board approval was received as ethics vote no. S039/2008 and informed consent was obtained from all patients. Tumor specimens were processed within 20 min after surgery. Samples were stored snap frozen at -80M-BM-0C until further use. Only tumor samples with > 70% tumour cells and positive estrogen receptor status (immunoreactive score M-bM-^IM-% 3) as assessed by routine immunohistochemistry were selected for this study (n = 109). Tumor lysates were printed on a series of nitrocellulose coated glass slides and probed with 128 different primary antibodies directed against proteins and phosphoproteins of interest. Primary antibodies were selected to recognize proteins involved in major cancer signaling pathways with a special focus on breast cancer biology.

Project description:Using protein microarrays, derived from 642 His-tag proteins, we could distinguish sera from breast-nodule positive patients and healthy control individuals. Each Protein microarray was divided in to 4 sub-arrays. Each protein was spotted in duplicates in each sub-array. For evaluation 24 malignant, 16 benign breast cancer serum samples and 20 healthy control serum samples were used.

Project description:Changes in environmental temperature can profoundly change species habitats and result in populations facing suboptimal environments. Many aquatic organisms are restricted in terms of migration by their habitat requirements. Also due to anthropogenic migration barriers (both physical as well as chemical), organisms are often left with no choice but to acclimate (or, in the long run, adapt) to their changing environment. The scope of this study is to investigate thermal acclimation in zebrafish by combining data from several levels of biological organization. Zebrafish were acclimated to a higher temperature (8°C increase compared to controls) or a lower temperature (8°C decrease compared to controls) in an acute as well as a prolonged and a chronic scenario (4, 14 and 28 days). General condition of the fish was assessed by determining organismal (condition factor) and biochemical (energy homeostasis) parameters. Data at the transcriptome level (using printed oligonucleotide microarrays containing 15,208 probes and real time PCR) were applied to clarify the mechanisms underlying the thermal acclimation response in zebrafish. All three biological replicates of liver samples from acute (4 days) and chronic (28 days) controls (26°), warm acclimation (34°) and cold acclimation (18°) were analyzed using microarrays. An A-optimal interwoven loop design was used in which each sample appeared on an array twice in Cy3 and twice in Cy5, resulting in 36 arrays for 18 samples.

Project description:Environmental risk assessment relies heavily on the use of bioassays to assess the environmental impact of chemicals. Gene expression is gaining acceptance as a valuable mechanistic endpoint in bioassays and effect-based screening. Data analysis and its results however, are often complex and not directly applicable in risk assessment. Classifier analysis is a promising method to turn complex gene expression analysis results into answers suitable for risk assessment. We have assembled a large gene expression dataset assembled from multiple studies and experiments in the springtail Folsomia candida, with the aim of selecting a set of genes that can be trained to classify general toxic stress. By performing differential expression analysis prior to classification we were able to select a set of 135 genes which was enriched in stress related processes. This set was then used to classify two test sets comprised of chemical spiked soils, polluted soils and clean soils and compared to another, more traditional feature selection for classification. The gene set presented here outperformed the more traditionally selected gene set. This gene set has the potential to be used as a biomarker to test for adverse effects caused by chemicals in springtails to provide endpoints in environmental risk assessment. The data presented in our manuscript is part of a larger experiment which was performed in single, large loop design. Only the samples used in the study presented here are named while the other samples will remain unnamed. All the data can still be used for normalization after which the analysis presented in the manuscript can be replicated. A single channel, interwoven loop design was used to test animals exposed to a control and to 5 concentrations of cadmium and phenanthrene (cadmium concentrations are: cad_1 till cad_5: 5.8, 14.5, 28.9, 57.9 and 115.8 mg/Kg respectively and phenanthrene concentrations are: phe_1 till Phe_5: 0, 4.6, 11.4, 22.9, 45.8 and 91.6 mg/Kg soil respectively). Exposures lasted for 2 days and used 4 biological replicates per condition each containing 30 grams soil and 30 individuals.
