Affymetrix Mouse Expression 430A Array (moe430a)
Description
We have developed a total RNA amplification and labeling strategy for use with Affymetrix GeneChips. Our protocol, which we denote BIIB, employs two rounds of linear T7 amplification followed by Klenow labeling to generate a biotinylated cDNA. In benchmarking studies using a titration of mouse universal total RNA, BIIB outperformed commercially available kits in terms of sensitivity, accuracy, and amplified target length, while providing equivalent results for technical reproducibility. BIIB maintained 50 and 44% present calls from 100 and 50 pg of total RNA, respectively. Inter- and intrasample precision studies indicated that BIIB produces an unbiased and complete expression profile within a range of 5 ng to 50 pg of starting total RNA. From a panel of spiked exogenous transcripts, we established the BIIB linear detection limit to be 20 absolute copies. Additionally, we demonstrate that BIIB is sensitive enough to detect the stochastic events inherent in a highly diluted sample. Using RNA isolated from whole tissues, we further validated BIIB accuracy and precision by comparison of 224 expression ratios generated by quantitative real-time PCR. The utility of our method is ultimately illustrated by the detection of biologically expected trends in a T cell/B cell titration of 100 primary cells flow sorted from a healthy mouse spleen.

Description
The whole blood was collected pre-treatment from rheumatoid arthritis patients starting the anti_TNF therapy. All patients were nave to anti_TNFs. The disease activity was measured using the DAS28 score at the pre-treatment visit1 (DAS28_v1) and 14 weeks after treatment visit3 (DAS28_v3). The response to the therapy was evaluated using the EULAR [European League Against Rheumatism] definition of the response. The objective of the data analysis was to identify gene expression coorelating with response as well as to identify genes that differentiate responders versus non-responders pre-treatment. The results of this investigation identified 8 trainscripts that predict responders vs. non-responders with 89% accuracy.

Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
While activation of canonical NF-?B signaling through the IKK complex is well studied, few regulators of NIK-dependent non-canonical p52 nuclear translocation have been identified. We discovered a novel role for cyclin dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) in transcriptionally regulating the non-canonical NF-?B pathway. High-content phenotypic screening identified a novel compound, 919278, which inhibits lymphotoxin ß receptor (LTßR)- and FN14-dependent p52 nuclear translocation, but not TNFa receptor (TNFR)-mediated, canonical NF-?B p65 nuclear translocation. Chemoproteomics identified cyclin dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) as the target of 919278. CDK12 inhibition by 919278, THZ1, or siRNA knock down all affect similar global transcriptional changes and prevent LTßR and FN14-dependent MAP3K14 (NIK) mRNA induction and subsequent protein accumulation. In addition, 919278 and THZ1 treatment reduce RNA Pol II CTD phosphorylation. This powerful approach of coupling a phenotypic screen with chemoproteomics revealed a novel regulatory pathway of the non-canonical NF-?B pathway that could serve as a therapeutic target in autoimmunity and cancer. Overall design: There are TWEAK stimulated and unstimulated conditions, 4hr and 24hr time points. 7 treatments (DMSO, BIO0702697, BIO0919278, BIO032202, NTsiRNA, siRNAs523626, siRNAs523629) in duplicates. In total, 56 sample were sequenced and analyzed.

Description
Sustained Ca2+ entry into CD4+CD8+ double-positive thymocytes is required for positive selection. We identified a voltage-gated Na+ channel (VGSC), essential for positive selection of CD4+ T cells. Pharmacological inhibition of VGSC activity inhibited sustained Ca2+ influx induced by positive-selecting ligands and in vitro positive selection of CD4+ but not CD8+ T cells. In vivo shRNA knockdown of Scn5a specifically inhibited positive selection of CD4+ T cells. Ectopic expression of VGSC in peripheral AND CD4+ T cells bestowed the ability to respond to a positively selecting ligand, directly demonstrating VGSC expression was responsible for increased sensitivity. Thus active VGSCs in thymocytes provides a mechanism by which a weak positive selecting signal can induce sustained Ca2+ signals required for CD4+ T cell development.

Description
Mutations affecting the RAS-MAPK pathway frequently occur in relapse neuroblastoma tumors, which suggests that activation of this pathway is associated with a more aggressive phenotype. To explore this hypothesis we generated several model systems to define a neuroblastoma RAS-MAPK pathway signature. We could show that activation of this pathway in primary tumors indeed correlates with poor survival and is associated with known activating mutations in ALK and other RAS-MAPK pathway genes. From integrative analysis we could show that mutations in PHOX2B, CIC and DMD are also associated with an activated RAS-MAPK pathway. Mutation of PHOX2B and deletion of CIC in neuroblastoma cell lines induces activation of the RAS-MAPK pathway. This activation was independent of phosphorylated ERK in the CIC knock out systems. Furthermore, deletion of CIC causes a significant increase in tumor growth in vivo. These results show that the RAS-MAPK pathway is involved in tumor progression, and establish CIC as a powerful tumor suppressor that functions downstream of this pathway in neuroblastoma.
