Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is defined by the loss of epithelial characteristics and the acquisition of a mesenchymal phenotype. In carcinoma cells, EMT can be associated with increased aggressiveness, and invasive and metastatic potential. To assess the occurrence of EMT in human breast tumors, we conducted a tissue microarray-based immunohistochemical study in 479 invasive breast carcinomas and 12 carcinosarcomas using 28 different markers. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of t ...[more]

Project description:Alterations in the cadherin-catenin adhesion complexes are involved in tumor initiation, progression and metastasis. However, the functional implication of distinct cadherin types in breast cancer biology is still poorly understood. Methods: To compare the functional role of E-cadherin and P-cadherin in invasive breast cancer, we stably transfected these molecules into the MDA-MB-231 cell line, and investigated their effects on motility, invasion and gene expression regulation. Expression of either E- and P-cadherin significantly increased cell aggregation and induced a switch from fibroblastic to epithelial morphology. Although expression of these cadherins did not completely reverse the mesenchymal phenotype of MDA-MB-231 cells, both E- and P-cadherin decreased fibroblast-like migration and invasion through extracellular matrix in a similar way. Moreover, microarray gene expression analysis of MDA-MB-231 cells after expression of E- and P-cadherins revealed that these molecules can activate signaling pathways leading to significant changes in gene expression. Although the expression patterns induced by E- and P-cadherin showed more similarities than differences, 40 genes were differentially modified by the expression of either cadherin type. Microarray gene expression analysis of MDA-MB-231 cells after expression of E- and P-cadherins using different clones for each conditions to reveal that these molecules can activate signaling pathways leading to significant changes in gene expression

Project description:We have compared the changes in cell cycle and cell death parameters induced by 2 different concentrations of 5-FU (IC50 and IC80) in the breast adenocarcinoma cell line MCF7. G1/S cell cycle arrest was associated with both concentrations, whereas cell death was mainly induced after IC80 5-FU. These changes were correlated with gene expression assessed by cDNA microarray analysis. Main findings included an overexpression of p53 target genes involved in cell cycle and apoptosis (CDKN1A/p21, TP53INP, TNFRSF6/FAS and BBC3/PUMA), and significant repression of Myc. High dose 5-FU also induced a higher regulation of the mitochondrial death genes APAF1, BAK1 and BCL2, and induction of genes of the ID family. Time and dose-dependent changes in gene expression, induced by 5-Fluorouracil, in breast carcinoma cell lines MCF7, and MDA-MB-435.

Project description:To identify regions that display DNA copy number alterations in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), we carried out array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis with 14 MPM cell lines. Regions of genomic aberrations observed in >20% of individuals were 9p21.3, 13q12.11, 16p13, and 22q12.2 of losses. The most frequent alteration was 9p21.3, which include the p16INK4/p14ARF. The loss of 22q12.2 regions include the NF2 was observed in 3 out of 14 cell lines. In 3 cell lines, loss of 13q12.11 region which contains Large Tumor Suppressor, homolog 2 (LATS2) was detected. Human malignant pleural mesothelioma cell lines were profiled on Agilent 244K aCGH arrays according to manufacturer’s instructions. Pooled normal human genomic DNA was used as the reference.

Project description:Several genes involved in nitrogen metabolism are known to contribute to the virulence of pathogenic bacteria. Here, we studied the function of the nitrogen regulatory protein GlnR in the Gram-positive human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae. We demonstrate that GlnR mediates transcriptional repression of genes involved in glutamine synthesis and uptake (glnA, glnPQ), glutamate synthesis (gdhA), and the gene encoding the pentose phosphate pathway enzyme Zwf, which forms an operon with glnPQ. Moreover, the expression of gdhA is also repressed by the pleiotropic regulator CodY. The GlnR-dependent regulation occurs through a conserved operator sequence and is responsive to the concentration of glutamate, glutamine and ammonium in the growth medium. By means of in vitro binding studies and transcriptional analyses we show that the regulatory function of GlnR is dependent on GlnA. Mutants of glnA and glnP displayed significantly reduced adhesion to Detroit 562 human pharyngeal epithelial cells, suggesting a role for these genes in the colonization of the host by S. pneumoniae. Thus, our results provide a thorough insight into the regulation of glutamine and glutamate metabolism of S. pneumoniae as mediated by both GlnR and GlnA. Each amplicon was spotted twice (technical replicates) on the DNA microarray. These replicates are indicated in the platforms and DNA microarray data by the addition of _rep1, _rep2, etc. The RNA for wild-type and mutant strains was isolated in 3 independent biological replicates which were hybridized in (partly dye-swap) to the 3 slides for glnA and 3 slides for glnR.

Project description:The self-renewal and differentiation potential of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) suggests that hESCs could be used for regenerative medicine, especially for restoring neuronal functions in brain diseases. However, the functional properties of neurons derived from hESC are largely unknown. Moreover, since hESCs were derived under diverse conditions, the possibility arises that neurons derived from different hESC lines exhibit distinct properties, but this possibility remains unexplored. To address these issues, we developed a protocol that allows step-wise generation from hESCs of ~70-80% pure human neurons that form spontaneously active synaptic networks in culture. Comparison of neurons derived from the well-characterized HSF1 and HSF6 hESC lines revealed that HSF1- but not HSF6-derived neurons exhibit forebrain properties. Accordingly, HSF1-derived neurons initially form primarily GABAergic synaptic networks, whereas HSF6-derived neurons initially form glutamatergic networks. microRNA profiling revealed significant expression differences between the two hESC lines, suggesting that microRNAs may influence their distinct differentiation properties. These observations indicate that although both HSF1 and HSF6 hESCs differentiate into functional neurons, the two hESC lines exhibit distinct differentiation potentials, suggesting that they are pre-programmed. Information on hESC line-specific differentiation biases is crucial for neural stem cell therapy and establishment of novel disease models using hESCs. Experiment Overall Design: We directly compared the transcriptome of hNPCs derived from HSF-1 and HSF-6 hESC lines under two different neural induction conditions (embryonic body formation in presence of caudalizing factors (retinoic acid and bFGF) and monolayer conversion in presence of BMP signaling inhibitor (Noggin)). Since HSF6 hESC cannot undergo efficient neural differentiation without caudalizing factors, we cannot obtain RNA samples for HSF6 (Noggin). Experiment Overall Design: In summary, consistent with our immunostaining results, HSF1 hNPCs display more forebrain properties as compared to HSF6 hNPCs, indicated by expression of multiple forebrain specific markers. Conversely, HSF6 hNPCs show regional identity towards posterior central nervous system.

Project description:Gene expression profiling of MDCK epithelial cells expressing different repressors (MDCK-Snail, MDCK-Slug and MDCK-E47 cells) versus control MDCK cells. The Oncochip microarray platform v1.1 contains 9,726 clones corresponding to 6,386 different genes, and it includes 2,489 duplicate clones. Duplicate samples from each of the MDCK transfectants (E47, SNAIL, SLUG) were labeled with dUTP-Cy5 and hybridized against the dUTP-Cy3-labeled MDCK-CMV controls. Two additional hybridizations using reciprocal fluorochrome labeling were performed (dye-swap). Thus, a total of four hybridizations were performed for each condition.

Project description:Male embryos are reported to develop faster than female in the preimplantation stage. Therefore, male and female embryos can be considered phenotypically different as early as the preimplantation stage. Employing our sexing system of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) tagging X chromosomes, we compared the global gene expression pattern of male and female embryos at the blastocyst stage using DNA microarray. Experiment Overall Design: samples were collected from three independent preparations and the experiments were triplicated. Scanned microarray results were processed with Feature Extraction software (ver. 7.5, Agilent). ãThe hybridization experiments were duplicated in a reciprocal labeling manner to reduce dye integration bias, and total of six hybridizations were carried out for the entire analysis.ã Combining plural array results and statistical analyses were carried out by Luminator software (Rosetta).

Project description:Inappropriate response to normal intestinal bacteria is involved in the development of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD, e.g. Crohnâ??s Disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC)) and variations in the host genome may mediate this process. IL-10-/- mice develop CD-like colitis mainly in the colon, in part due to inappropriate responses to normal intestinal bacteria including Enterococcus strains. Comprehensive characterization of changes in gene expression associated with the observed inflammation in the IL-10-/- mouse model has yet to be reported. Our aim was to characterize changes in colonic gene expression in IL-10-/- and C57BL/6J (C57; control) mice resulting from oral bacterial inoculation with 12 Enterococcus faecalis and faecium (EF) strains isolated from calves or poultry, complex intestinal flora (CIF) collected from healthy control mice, or a mixture of the two (EFâ?¢CIF). At 12 weeks of age, total RNA extracted from intact colon was hybridized to Agilent 44k mouse arrays. Lists of differentially expressed genes were generated using linear models for microarray analysis (Bioconductor), and genes clustered using GeneSpring GX and Ingenuity Pathways Analysis software. Intestinal inflammation was increased in IL-10-/- mice as a result of inoculation, with the strongest effect being in the EF and EF.CIF groups; expression of >4,000 gene probes was altered in colon tissue compared with similarly inoculated C57 mice. Genes differentially expressed in IL-10-/- mice as a result of EF or EF.CIF inoculation were associated with the following pathways: inflammatory disease (111 genes differentially expressed), immune response (209 genes), antigen presentation (11 genes, particularly major histocompatability complex Class II), fatty acid metabolism (30 genes) and detoxification (31 genes). Our results suggest that the colonic inflammation in EF and EF.CIF-inoculated IL-10-/- mice is mediated by mechanisms similar to those of human IBD, in particular CD. Example logFC calculation; This example describes the calculation of the fold-change value (logFC) for a single spot (in this case, spot 27222) for a single comparison. This calculation method was applied to generate all of the comparison data shown in the supplementary data files. The comparison in question is for:; colon tissue from C57BL/6J mouse with EF.CIF treatment (represented by duplicate samples GSM307282 (Title: C57BL/6J_Colon_EF.CIF_Rep1_(Pool17)) and GSM307283 (Title: C57BL/6J_Colon_EF.CIF_Rep2_(Pool18)); vs. colon tissue from C57BL/6J mouse under conventional conditions (represented by duplicate samples GSM307270 (Title: C57BL/6J_Colon_Conventional_Rep1_(Pool5)) and GSM307271 (Title: C57BL/6J_Colon_Conventional_Rep2_(Pool6)); Important Note: Limma analysis maps the treatments on each slide to the M values which are by convention always log2(R) - log2(G). Because this experiment is a reference design, with the reference RNA always Cy5 (i.e. red, channel 2) and the treatment sample Cy3 (i.e. green, channel 1), and we are interested in the values of the treatment samples compared with the reference, the M values in the data files are displayed as log2(G) - log2(R); The average expression is what is important here, which is calculated from the normalized M values for the appropriate comparison of interest as follows:; [1] Mean value for Spot 27222, for each treatment:; C57BL/6J mouse, EF.CIF: = mean (0.26363587 (GSM307282), 0.05084283 (GSM307283)) = 0.15723935 C57BL/6J mouse, conventional = mean (1.42951674 (GSM307270),1.15444106 (GSM307271)) = 1.2919789; [2] Calculation of LogFC for the comparison of interest:; The contrast of interest is C57BL/6J: EF.CIF vs Conventional, so by performing a subtraction of these values for the comparison of interest (i.e. (mean for EF.CIF) - (mean for Conventional), the common reference is cancelled out, thus:; C57BL/6J: EF.CIF vs Conventional = 0.15723935 - 1.2919789 = -1.13473955; So, the fold-change value (logFC) for spot 27222 for the comparison in question (C57BL/6J: EF.CIF vs. Conventional) is: -1.13473955 Experiment Overall Design: Animals. Twenty five male IL-10-/- (C57BL/6J background, formal designation B6.129P2-IL-10<tm1Cgn>/J) mice and twenty five male C57BL/6J (C57) control mice were received from The Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, Maine, USA) at approximately five weeks of age. Mice were housed either in pairs or groups of three (5 mice per treatment) in shoebox-style cages containing untreated wood shavings and a plastic tube for environmental enrichment. The animal room was maintained at a temperature of ~22°C and humidity of ~50% with a 12 hour light/dark cycle. All mice had ad libitum access to water, which was refreshed twice a week. An AIN-76A powdered diet was supplied twice a week, with sufficient provided to meet the daily intake of IL-10-/- mice, as determined in a previous feeding trial (data not shown). The diet for all groups was sterilized by gamma irradiation (Schering-Plough, Wellington, New Zealand) to a level required for SPF conditions, to minimize the possibility of bacterial introduction to the SPF group of animals. All mice were weighed three times weekly and carefully monitored for disease symptoms (weight loss, soft faeces and inactivity). Experiment Overall Design: Experimental design. Both IL-10-/- and C57 mice were randomly divided into five treatment groups with five animals per group. Experiment Overall Design: SPF. Housed in Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) conditions (isolator cages supplied with HEPA filtered air (Tecniplast SpA, Buguggiate, Italy)). Experiment Overall Design: C. Maintained under conventional conditions. Experiment Overall Design: EF. Maintained under conventional conditions and orally inoculated (200 microlitres) with a solutions containing 12 pure strains of Enterococcus (1.2 x 10^8 colony forming units (CFU)). Experiment Overall Design: CIF. Maintained under conventional conditions and orally inoculated with conventional intestinal flora (CIF) derived from healthy age-matched C57BL/6 mice which had been raised under conventional conditions. The CIF inoculation protocol was included to better mimic the complete microbiota associated with the mouse gastrointestinal tract. Experiment Overall Design: EFâ?¢CIF. Maintained under conventional conditions and orally inoculated with a combination of the EF and CIF inoculation solutions (6.0 x 10^7 CFU from the EF inoculum). Experiment Overall Design: All mice were euthanised via CO2 asphyxiation and cervical dislocation at 12 weeks of age. Blood was collected from euthanised mice by cardiac puncture. Plasma was separated from red blood cells by centrifugation (2000 g, 10 min, 4 ºC), frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at - 80 ºC. The intestine was removed, cut open lengthwise and flushed with 0â?¢9 % NaCl to remove digesta residues. The proximal half of the colon was cut in two pieces, one for histological evaluation and other for gene expression studies. Samples of the colon tissue for gene expression analysis were frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at - 80 ºC. Samples for histological analysis were stored in formalin solution (10 % neutral buffered) at room temperature. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was extracted from the colon tissues using Trizol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) as described by the manufacturer, with a subsequent purification step using RNeasy columns (Qiagen, San Diego, CA, USA). RNA was quantified using a NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer (NanoDrop Technologies, Wilmington, DE, USA) and RNA quality was examined using a RNA 6000 LabChip Kit and a 2100 Bioanalyser (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA). Experiment Overall Design: The Low RNA Input Fluorescent Linear Amplification Kit (Agilent Technologies Inc., Palo Alto, California, USA) was used to synthesize cDNA and fluorescent cRNA. Labelled cRNA was made on the same day for all sample pools, including the reference sample. cDNA was synthesized from 500 ng of purified total RNA from each pool using T7 promotor primer and Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus Reverse Transcriptase according to the manufacturerâ??s protocol. Cy3 (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451, USA) was used to label sample groups, while the reference RNA was labeled with Cy5 (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451, USA). Experiment Overall Design: HYBRIDIZATION Experiment Overall Design: Microarray hybridization was performed according to a reference design without dye swap. The in situ hybridization kit-plus (Agilent Technologies Inc., Palo Alto, California, USA) was used to hybridize cRNA samples to Agilent Technologies Mouse G4121A - 44k 60mer oligonucleotide arrays. Cy3-labelled cRNA (sample, 0.75 µg) and Cy5-labelled cRNA (reference, 0.75 µg) were hybridised onto the microarray according to the manufacturerâ??s protocol. Following hybridisation, slides were washed in solutions I, II and III (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and air-dried. Experiment Overall Design: SCAN PROTOCOL Experiment Overall Design: Slides were scanned using a GenePix 4200A scanner (Molecular Devices Corporation, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) at a photomultiplier tube (PMT) setting of 450 V. Spot identification and quantification were performed using GenePix 6.0 software (Molecular Devices Corporation, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). Spot identification and quantification was performed using GenePix 6.0 software (Molecular Devices). All slides were individually checked and manually flagged for abnormalities. Experiment Overall Design: DATA PROCESSING Experiment Overall Design: Statistical analysis was performed using linear models for microarray analysis (limma) within the Bioconductor framework. Before analysis, poor quality spots were manually flagged and filtered out. Quality of the microarray data was assessed on diagnostic plots (boxplots and density plots) and spatial images generated from the raw (non-processed) data. All twenty arrays passed these strict criteria and were included in the analyses. Intensity ratio values for all microarray spots were normalized using a within-slide global Locally Weighted Scatterplot Smoothing (Loess) procedure to remove the effect of systematic variation in the microarrays; no background correction was necessary due to homogeneous hybridization. The normalized data from the arrays of each treatment group were averaged. For each comparison, differentially expressed genes were identified using false discovery rate (FDR) control with a threshold of q < 0.05. Data were log transformed before analysis and the mean difference between treatments calculated on this scale, resulting in a log ratio for each probe. The normalized values in the database consist of these log ratios. MA plots of the microarray data were drawn in order to check that there was no dependence of the log ratio on the intensity for any slide. The significance of the log ratio for each probe was determined by calculating one modified t-statistic per probe using an empirical Bayes approach. Experiment Overall Design: The probability values were then corrected for multiple testing using the Benjamini and Hochberg correction, and a false discovery rate (FDR) calculated. Probes that had an FDR of less than 5 % (q<0*05) were considered to be differentially expressed between treatment.
