Description
We analysed the capacity of THP-1 cells (differentiated to macrophagoid cells) to recognize RNA sequences via pattern recognition receptors in vitro. Gene expression was analysed by RNA-Microarray. Cytokine production was analysed by ELISA assays.

- Affymetrix E. coli Genome 2.0 Array (ecoli2)
Description
Bacteria selectively consume some carbon sources over others through a regulatory mechanism termed catabolite repression. Here, we show that the base pairing RNA Spot 42 plays a broad role in catabolite repression in Escherichia coli by directly repressing genes involved in central and secondary metabolism, redox balancing, and the consumption of diverse non-preferred carbon sources. Many of the genes repressed by Spot 42 are transcriptionally activated by the global regulator CRP. Since CRP represses Spot 42, these regulators participate in a specific regulatory circuit called a multi-output feedforward loop. We found that this loop can reduce leaky expression of target genes in the presence of glucose and can maintain repression of target genes under changing nutrient conditions. Our results suggest that base pairing RNAs in feedforward loops can help shape the steady-state levels and dynamics of gene expression.

Description
We here show that loss of imprinting (LOI) of IGF2 is a frequent and early event in the development of colon cancer and occurs throughout the large intestine. LOI leads to AKT1-dependent activation and suppression of a defined set of genes, many of which are cell cycle related. Our results further showed that IGF2 induces non-canonical wnt signaling. We hypothesize that IGF2 and Wnt5a cooperate in cancer progression. LOI is an attractive target for tumor prevention or targeted therapy.

Description
The estrogen receptor-alpha (ER) determines breast cancer cell phenotype and is a prognostic indicator. A better understanding of the mechanisms controlling ER function may uncover improved strategies for the treatment of breast cancer. Proteasome inhibition was previously reported to regulate estrogen-induced transcription but the mechanisms by which it influences ER function remain controversial. In this study we investigated the transcriptome-wide effects of the proteasome inhibitor Velcade on estrogen-regulated transcription in MCF7 human breast cancer cells and demonstrate a specific global decrease in estrogen-induced transcription.

Description
To understand the basic biological property of hair cells (HCs) from lower vertebrates, we examined transcriptomes of adult zebrafish HCs. GFP-labeled HCs were isolated from the utricle, saccule, and lagena, the three inner-ear sensory epithelia of a pou4f3 promoter-driven GAP-GFP line of transgenic zebrafish. 2,000 HCs and 2,000 non-sensory cells from the inner ear were individually collected by suction pipet technique. RNA sequencing was performed and the resulting sequences were mapped, analyzed, and compared. Comparisons allow us to identify enriched genes in HCs, which may underlie HC specialization. Overall design: Examination of transcriptomes of adult zebrafish inner ear hair cells and surrounding cells individually collected and sorted using pou4f3 promoter-driven GFP marking hair cells.

Description
We have characterised the zebrafish ortholog, setb, and investigated its role in embryogenesis. Phylogenetic analysis showed that zebrafish Setb has an amino acid sequence identity of approximately 96% with the mammalian orthologs. Whole mount immunofluorescence analysis revealed that Setb is expressed mainly in the eye, the lateral line neuromasts and the olfactory pit. Knockdown of setb using antisense morpholino oligonucleotides resulted in increased apoptosis, reduced cell proliferation and severe morphological defects. The morphant phenotypes were partially rescued when setb MO1 was co-injected with human set mRNA. In vivo labelling of hair cells in the lateral line of setb morphants with the vital fluorescent dye FM1-43 showed a significant decreased number of functional neuromasts. Gene expression analysis of setb morphants, employing DNA microarrays revealed a role of Setb in neurogenesis and the mechanosensory lateral line system.
