View SamplesA/J mice are genetically predisposed to spontaneous and/or chemically-induced lung tumors while C57BL/6J (B6) mice are resistant. This genetic disparity provides a unique scenario to identify molecular mechanisms associated with the lung response to welding fume at the transcriptome level.

View SamplesWe utilized RNA-Seq on rat Schwann (S16) cells to determine global gene expression. This information was generated as part of a larger effort to characterize cis-regulatory elements and global gene expression within Schwann cells. To achieve this, we generated RPKM values across two independent biological replicates. This dataset was also used to predict cis-regulatory element function on genes following CRISPR knockout studies. Overall design: Performed two technical replicates of RNA-Seq on two independent biological replicates of S16 cells

View SamplesThere is an ongoing debate on the potential toxicity of genetically modified food. The ability of rodent feeding trials to assess the potential toxicity of these products is highly debated since a 2-year study in rats fed NK603 Roundup-tolerant genetically modified maize, treated or not with Roundup during the cultivation, resulted in anatomorphological and blood/urine biochemical changes indicative of liver and kidney structure and functional pathology.

View SamplesLiposarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma, accounting for about 20% of cases. Liposarcoma is classified into 5 histologic subtypes that fall into 3 biological groups characterized by specific genetic alterations. To identify genes that contribute to liposarcomagenesis and to better predict outcome for patients with the disease, we undertook expression profiling of liposarcoma. U133A expression profiling was performed on 140 primary liposarcoma samples, which were randomly split into training set (n=95) and test set (n=45). A multi-gene predictor for distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS) was developed using the supervised principal component method. Expression levels of the 588 genes in the predictor were used to calculate a risk score for each patient. In validation of the predictor in the test set, patients with low risk score had a 3-year DRFS of 83% vs. 45% for high risk score patients (P=0.001). The hazard ratio for high vs. low score, adjusted for histologic subtype, was 4.42 (95% confidence interval 1.26-15.55; P=0.021). The concordance probability for risk score was 0.732. Genes related to adipogenesis, DNA replication, mitosis, and spindle assembly checkpoint control were all highly represented in the multi-gene predictor. Three genes from the predictor, TOP2A, PTK7, and CHEK1, were found to be overexpressed in liposarcoma samples of all five subtypes and in liposarcoma cell lines. Knockdown of these genes in liposarcoma cell lines reduced proliferation and invasiveness and increased apoptosis. Thus, genes identified from this predictor appear to have roles in liposarcomagenesis and have promise as therapeutic targets. In addition, the multi-gene predictor will improve risk stratification for individual patients with liposarcoma.
Expression profiling of liposarcoma yields a multigene predictor of patient outcome and identifies genes that contribute to liposarcomagenesis.

View SamplesWe provide here the alterations in gene expression profiles of HepaRG cells, a validated model for cellular steatosis, exposed to three concentration of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) 126, one of the most potent chemical inducing NAFLD. Additionnally, three concentration of the pesticide active ingredient glyphosate were tested. This ultimately suggested sensitive biomarkers of exposure. A gene ontology analysis showed hallmarks of an activation of the AhR receptor by dioxin-like compounds. Our study provides grounds for the development of molecular signatures of fatty liver diseases to rapidly assess toxic effects of chemicals in the HepaRG cell line. Overall design: Differentiated HepaRGTM cells (HPR 116) were purchased from Biopredic International. The cells were kept in the general purpose medium until day 8, when the culture becomes well organized and includes well-delineated trabeculae and many canaliculi-like structures. Three concentrations of the PCB were then tested from day 8 to day 14, in order to cover a wide range of biological effects, starting from low environmental exposures (100 pM) to high concentrations of (1 uM), with an intermediate concentration (10 nM). Three concentrations of glyphosate, or one concentration of the Roundup herbicide (Grand Travaux +) were also tested in the same system.
