Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
The organization of mammalian DNA replication is poorly understood. We have produced genome-wide high-resolution dynamic maps of the timing of replication in human erythroid, mesenchymal and embryonic stem cells using TimEX, a method that relies on gaussian convolution of massive, highly redundant determinations of DNA copy number variations during S phase obtained using either high-density oligonucleotide tiling arrays or massively-parallel sequencing to produce replication timing profiles. We show that in untransformed human cells, timing of replication is highly regulated and highly synchronous, and that many genomic segments are replicated in temporal transition regions devoid of initiation where replication forks progress unidirectionally from origins that can be hundreds of kilobases away. Absence of initiation in one transition region is shown at the molecular level by SMARD analysis. Comparison of ES and erythroid cells replication patterns revealed that these cells replicate about 20% of their genome in different quarter of S phase and that ES cells replicate a larger proportion of their genome in early S phase than erythroid cells. Importantly, we detected a strong inverse relationship between timing of replication and distance to the closest expressed gene. This relationship can be used to predict tissue specific timing of replication profiles from expression data and genomic annotations. We also provide evidence that early origins of replication are preferentially located near highly expressed genes, that mid firing origins are located near moderately expressed genes and that late firing origins are located far from genes.

Description
Ovarian cancer is a deadly gynecological malignancy for which novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets are imperative for improving survival. To investigate the role of histone H1 in ovarian cancer cells, we overexpress a histone H1 variant, H1.3, in the OVCAR-3 epithelial ovarian cancer cell line. RNA was extracted from OV-3/H1.3(H) cells (OVCAR-3 with overexpression of H1.3) and control cells of OVCAR-3 transfected with vectors without H1.3. The microarray chip used was human Affymetrix ST1.0 array. Gene expression changes caused by overexpression of H1.3 in OVCAR-3 cells were identified.

Description
The differential gene expression of human cardiomyocytes induced by kinase inhibitors sorafenib and sunitinib is measured by a high-throughput mRNA-sequencing approach called 3''-DGE, that is based on a 3'' end-focused reference sequence library and a transcript molecule counting method with unique molecular identifiers (UMI) for correcting PCR bias. Overall design: Cells were treated with sunitinib, sorafenib, or vehicle control for 48 hours, and gene expression levels of all samples were measured by 3''-DGE and conventional random-primed mRNA-sequencing methods using paired-end reading to obtain the genome-wide expression profiles for each sample.

Description
Molecular mechanisms that are responsible for the development of human skin epithelial cells are not completely understood so far. As a consequence, the efficiency to establish a pure skin epithelial cell population from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) remains poor. Using an approach including RNA interference and high-throughput imaging of early epithelial cells, we could identify candidate kinases which are involved in skin epithelial differentiation. Among them, we found HIPK4 to be an important inhibitor of this process. Indeed, its silencing increased the amount of generated skin epithelial precursors, increased the amount of generated keratinocytes and improved growth and differentiation of organotypic cultures, allowing for the formation of a denser basal layer and stratification with the expression of several keratins. Our data bring substantial input in the regulation of human skin epithelial differentiation and for improving differentiation protocols from pluripotent stem cells.

Description
Three different progenitor cell subsets in subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues derived from 5 obese patients were subjected to AmpliSeq transcriptome profiling. Transcriptomic profiles were analyzed to compare progenitor cell subsets and the impact of subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue location. Overall design: Transcriptomic profiling of 3 different progenitor cell types in subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues derived from 5 obese patients (3X2X5=30 samples).

Description
The size and scope of microarray experiments continue to increase. However, datasets generated on different platforms or at different centres contain biases. Improved techniques are needed to remove platform- and batch-specific biases. One experimental control is the replicate hybridization of a subset of samples at each site or on each platform to learn the relationship between the two platforms. To date, no algorithm exists to specifically use this type of control. LTR is a linear-modelling-based algorithm that learns the relationship between different microarray batches from replicate hybridizations. LTR was tested on a new benchmark dataset of 20 samples hybridized to different Affymetrix microarray platforms. Before LTR, the two platforms were significantly different; application of LTR removed this bias. LTR was tested with six separate data pre-processing algorithms, and its effectiveness was independent of the pre-processing algorithm. Sample-size experiments indicate that just three replicate hybridizations can significantly reduce bias. An R library implementing LTR is available.

Description
To identify the CD4+ T cell cytokines responsible for the proliferation of the Lin-IEL lines CD4+ T cell clone L10, which recognises DQ2-glia-1, one of the immunodominant T cell epitopes in celiac disease, was stimulated for 3 hours in IMDM with plate-bound CD3/CD28-specific (2.5 g/ml each) or control antibodies coated onto 6-well non-tissue culture treated plates. Three independent biological replicates were performed, each time including 6 million Ficoll-purified live cells per condition. RNA was purified from these cells using the RNAeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Venlo, the Netherlands). cDNA was amplified using the Applause WT-Amp system (NuGEN technologies, Bemmel, the Netherlands) and biotin-labelled with the Encore Biotin Module (NuGEN). Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays (Affymetrix, High Wycombe, UK) were employed to quantify global gene expression.
