- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
A preliminary understanding of the phenotypic effect of copy number variation (CNV) of DNA segments is emerging. These rearrangements were demonstrated to influence, in a somewhat dose-dependent manner, the expression of genes mapping within. They were shown to also affect the expression of genes located on their flanks, sometimes at great distance. Here, we show by monitoring these effects at multiple life stages, that these controls over expression are effective throughout mouse development. Similarly, we observe that the more specific spatial expression patterns of CNV genes are maintained throughout life. However, we find that some brain-expressed genes appear to be under compensatory loops only at specific time-points, indicating that the influence of CNVs on these genes is modulated through development. We also observe that CNV genes are significantly enriched upon transcripts that show variable time-course of expression in different strains. Thus modifying the number of copy of a gene not only potentially alters its expression level, but possibly also its time of expression.

Illumina HiSeq 1500
Description
Inhibition of ZNF768 function was achieved by conditional over expression expression of the C-terminal zinc finger of ZNF768 for 12h. For preparation of total RNA cells were resuspended in TRIzol reagent (Life Technologies) at 0.9Mio/ml and snap-frozen. After thawing RNA was extracted from 0.4ml of TriZol lysate using the direct-zol RNA Miniprep (Zymo Research, Irvine CA, USA) as described in the manufacturer's protocol. RNA was assessed for purity by UV-vis spectrometry (Nanodrop) and for integrity by Bioanalyzer (Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100, Agilent, Santa Clara USA)). RNA was of high purity (abs. 260/280 >1.9, abs 269/239>2.1) and integrity (Bioanalyzer RIN>9 ) and thus used for further processing. For production of RNA-seq libraries total RNA was DNAse treated (dsDNAse, Fermentas) and 100 ng of this RNA was processed with a strand-specific protocol (RNA-seq complete kit, NuGEN, San Carlos, USA). In brief the RNA was reverse transcribed to cDNA with a reduced set of hexamer primers, avoiding excessive representation of rRNA in the cDNA. Second strand cDNA synthesis was done in presence of dUTP. After ultrasonic fragmentation of the cDNA and end repair, Illumina-compatible adapter were ligated. Adapters contained uracil in one strand, allowing complete digestion of the second-strand derived DNA. After strand selection the libraries were amplified, assessed for correct insert size on the Agilent Bioanalyser and diluted to 10nM. Barcoded libraries were mixed in equimolar amounts and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq1500 in single-read mode with a read length of 100 b. Overall design: ZNF768-deltaN

Description
A humanized in vivo APL model has been established utilizing the retroviral transduction of PML-RARA into human CD34+ hematopoietic cells and the transplantation of these cells into immunodeficient mice. The resultant leukemia recapitulated human APL phenotypically, and was clustered in the same category as human APL samples in the gene expression analysis.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
Th1 and Th2 cells arise from a common precursor cell in response to triggering through the TCR and cytokine receptors for IL-12 or IL-4. This leads to activation of complex signaling pathways, which are not known in detail. Disturbances in the balance between type 1 and type 2 responses can lead to certain immune-mediated diseases. Thus, it is important to understand how Th1 and Th2 cells are generated. To clarify the mechanisms as to how IL-12 and IL-4 induce Th1 and Th2 differentiation and how TGF-beta can inhibit this process, we have used oligonucleotide arrays to examine the early polarization of Th1 and Th2 cells in the presence and absence of TGF-beta after 0, 2, 6 and 48 hours of polarization.

- Affymetrix Bovine Genome Array (bovine)
Description
The bovine chromaffin cell (BCC) is a unique modela highly homogeneous and accessible neuroendocrine cellin which to study gene regulation through first messenger-initiated signaling pathways that are specific to post-mitotic cells. BCCs were treated with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) or pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP), two critical regulators of neural cell transcriptional programming during inflammation that act on TNFR2 and PAC1 receptors, respectively, in post-mitotic neuroendocrine cells. Transcripts which were significantly up regulated by either or both first messenger were identified from microarray analysis using two bovine oligonucleotide arrays (Affymetrix and Agilent) followed by statistical analysis with Partek Genomic suite. Microarray data were combined from the two arrays using qRT-PCR sampling validation, and the first-messenger transcriptome derived from TNF and PACAP signaling were compared. More than 90 percent of the genes up regulated either by TNF or PACAP were specific to a single first messenger. BioBase suite, DIRE and Opossum were used to identify common promoter/enhancer response elements that control the expression of TNF- or PACAP-stimulated genes. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that distinct groups of transcription factors control the expression of genes up regulated by either TNF or PACAP . Most of the genes up regulated by TNF contained response elements for members of the Rel transcription factor family, suggesting TNF-TNFR2 signaling mainly through the NF-kB signaling pathway. On the other hand, the PACAP regulated genes showed no enrichment for any single response element, containing instead response elements for combinations of transcription factors allowing activation through multiple signaling pathways, including cAMP, calcium and ERK, in neuroendocrine cells. Pharmacological strategies for mimicking neuroprotection by either PACAP or TNF in the context of CNS injury or degeneration in disease might focus on individual downstream gene activation pathways to achieve greater specificity in vivo.

Description
Characterization of the underlying genetic defects in patients with a rare and peculiar phenotype is challenging. Here we have utilized whole genome expression profiling, and identified a homozygous germline mutation in the DDB2 gene in a patient with several facial tumors. The feasibility of using blood derived RNA, diminishing costs of the technology, and the limited number of samples needed provide this approach a powerful new tool that may substantially aid in such gene identification efforts.

Description
The aim of this study was to determine the changes in gene expression of rice root tips when they came in to contact with a hard layer (60% wax layer). Three categories of root tips were sampled; tips before the hard layer, tips that had come into contact with the hard layer and root tips which had buckled after coming into contact with the hard layer.
