View SamplesPurpose: The purpose of this study is to identify functionally inter-connected group of miRNAs whose reduced expression promotes leukemia development in vivo. We searched for relevant target genes of these miRNAs that are upregulated in T-ALL relative to controls. Methods: In order to examine the global gene expression, we generated 9 T-ALL patients and 4 normal controls by deep sequencing using Illumina Hi-Seq sequencer. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed using Spliced Transcripts Alignment to a Reference aligner (STAR) followed by differential gene expression analysis using DESeq. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped reads per sample to the human genome (build hg19) and identified transcripts in both patient and controls with STAR workflow. We applied a machine learning approach to eliminate targets with redundant miRNA-mediated control. This strategy finds a convergence on the Myb oncogene and less prominent effects on the Hpb1 transcription factor. The abundance of both genes is increased in T-ALL and each can promote T-ALL in vivo. Conclusion: Our study reveals a Myc regulated network of tumor suppressor miRNAs in T-ALL. We identified a small number of functionally validated tumor suppressor miRNAs. These miRNAs are repressed upon Myc activation and this links their expression directly to Myb a key oncogenic driver in T-ALL. Overall design: Examination of global gene expression in 9 T-ALL patients and 4 normal controls using total RNA sequencing. BaseMeanA in DESeq_results.xlsx is the control.

View SamplesTo characterize gene response in RPE65-/- mouse model of Lebers congenital amaurosis during progression of the disease, we analyzed differential gene expression in retinae early in the development of the disease, namely before and at the onset of photoreceptor cell death in knock-out mice of 2, 4 and 6 months of age.

View SamplesMeiotic recombination is initiated by the Spo11 endonuclease, which directs DNA double strand breaks at discrete regions in the genome coined hotspots. Here we report the profiles and dynamics of histone modifications at the cores of mouse recombination hotspots in early meiotic prophase. To define the spectrum of possible regulators of histone methylation and acetylation at all stages of meiosis I, expression analyses of histone acetylases/deacetylases (HATs/HDACs) and and HMTs/HDMTs genes when comparing those expressed in spermatogonia, pre-leptotene and leptotene/zygotene versus pachytene meiotic stages.

View SamplesTGZ is an agonist of the nuclear receptor PPARgamma. This synthetic compound displays anticancer effects on breast cancer cells but some of them are PPARgamma independent. Delta-2-TGZ (delta-2-troglotazone) is a PPARgamma inactive TGZ derivative possessing a double bond adjoining the thiazolidinedione ring. This compound still displays anticancer efefcts. It is an interesting tool to study the PPARgamma-independent mechanisms.

View SamplesLife-threatening pulmonary influenza can be caused by inborn errors of type I and III IFN immunity. We report a 5 year-old child with severe pulmonary influenza at 2 years. She is homozygous for a loss-of-function IRF9 allele. Her cells activate gamma-activated factor (GAF) STAT1 homodimers but not interferon-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3) trimers (STAT1/STAT2/IRF9) in response to IFN-a2b. The transcriptome induced by IFN-a2b in the patient's cells is much narrower than that of control cells; however, induction of a subset of interferon-stimulated gene transcripts remains detectable. In vitro, the patient's cells do not control three respiratory viruses, influenza A virus (IAV), parainfluenza virus, and respiratory syncytial virus. These phenotypes are rescued by wild-type IRF9, whereas silencing IRF9 expression in control cells increases viral replication. However, the child has controlled various common viruses in vivo, including respiratory viruses other than IAV. Our findings show that human IRF9- and ISGF3-dependent type I and III IFN responsive pathways are essential for controlling IAV. Overall design: Total of 72 samples, 38 samples from primary fibroblasts and 34 samples from EBV-transformed B cells, were analyzed using paired-end RNA sequence data. Out of 38 samples from primary fibroblasts, 3 control samples are paired with no stimulation vs IFNa2b stimulation. Out of 34 samples from B-cells, 3 control samples are paired with no stimuliion vs IFNa2b stimulation. In addition to healthy control subjects, patients with AR complete STAT1 (STAT1 -/-) or STAT2 (STAT2 -/-) deficiency were analyzed for comparison.

View SamplesThe purpose was to determine AcP- and AcPb-dependent gene responses to IL-1 by virally-reconstituting AcP-deficient mouse embryonic cortical neurons with CD25 (control), full length AcP, AcPb or the combination of both. A control population was transduced with a CD25-expressing virus. Half the samples were stimulated with IL-1-beta for four hours, RNA was analyzed by microarray.
