Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The sequence of gene regulatory events that drive neonatal germ cell development in the mammalian testis is not yet clear. We assessed changes in mRNA utilization in the neonatal testis at 1 and 4 dpp, times when the testis contains quiescent gonocytes (1 dpp) and proliferating spermatogonia (4 dpp). There are not thought to be major changes in the nature or number of somatic cells over that interval.

- Affymetrix Clariom S Human array (clariomshuman)
Description
The STOX1 transcription factor has been involved in a complex human disease of pregnancy, preeclampsia, in human families, and mouse models. However, its mode of action is still largely unknown. Overexpression of either the long (STOX1A) or the short (STOX1B) isoform was obtained in the BeWo villous trophoblast model, a cell line able to fuse in syncytiotrophoblast following induction by forskolin treatment. The effects at the transcriptional level are evaluated in every condition.

Description
When using cell lines to study cancer, phenotypic similarity to the original tumor is paramount. Yet, little has been done to characterize how closely Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) cell lines model native tumors. To determine their similarity to MCC tumor samples, we characterized MCC cell lines via gene expression microarrays. Using whole transcriptome gene expression signatures and a computational bioinformatic approach, we identified significant differences between variant cell lines (UISO, MCC13, and MCC26) and fresh frozen MCC tumors. Conversely, the classic WaGa and Mkl-1 cell lines more closely represented the global transcriptome of MCC tumors. When compared to publicly available cancer lines, WaGa and Mkl-1 cells were similar to other neuroendocrine tumors, but the variant cell lines were not. WaGa and Mkl-1 cells grown as xenografts in mice had histological and immunophenotypical features consistent with MCC, while UISO xenograft tumors were atypical for MCC. Spectral karyotyping and short tandem repeat analysis of the UISO cells matched the original cell line's description, ruling out contamination. Our results validate the use of transcriptome analysis to assess the cancer cell line representativeness and indicate that UISO, MCC13, and MCC26 cell lines are not representative of MCC tumors, whereas WaGa and Mkl-1 more closely model MCC.

- Affymetrix Rat Expression 230A Array (rae230a)
Description
This study aims at a comprehensive understanding of the genomic program activated during early-phase of collateral vessel growth in a rat model for cerebral adaptive arteriogenesis (3-VO). While arteriogenesis constitutes a promising therapeutic concept for cerebrovascular ischemia, genomic profiles essential for therapeutic target identification were analysed solely for collateral arteries of the heart and periphery. Despite challenging anatomical conditions of the brain the 3-VO model allows identification of differentially expressed genes during adaptive cerebral arteriogenesis by selective removal of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA).

Induction of cerebral arteriogenesis leads to early-phase expression of protease inhibitors in growing collaterals of the brain.

Description
Administration of exogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been shown to improve the recovery from acute kidney injury (AKI). It has been suggested that the beneficial effect of MSCs is related to the paracrine release of factors favouring proliferation of intrinsic epithelial cells survived to injury rather than to their trans-differentiation. However the factors involved remain to be determined. In the present study we demonstrated that microvesicles (MVs) derived from human bone marrow MSCs are able to stimulate in vitro proliferation and apoptosis resistance of tubular epithelial cells (TEC). In addition, MVs were found to accelerate in vivo the morphological and functional recovery of glycerol induced AKI in SCID mice by inducing TEC proliferation. The effect of MVs on the recovery of AKI was comparable to that of human MSC treatment. In vitro we found that the CD44 and beta1-integrin-dependent incorporation of MVs in TEC was required for their biological action. However, despite their internalization, RNase-treated MVs failed to induce in vitro apoptosis resistance and TEC proliferation, and in vivo recovery from AKI, suggesting an RNA-dependent biological effect. Microarray analysis and quantitative RT-PCR of MV-RNA extract indicated that MVs were shuttling a specific subset of cellular mRNA, such as mRNA associated with the mesenchymal differentiative phenotype and with several cell functions involved in the control of transcription, proliferation, apoptosis and cell immune regulation. These results suggest that MVs derived from MSCs may activate a proliferative program in TEC survived to injury in AKI by an horizontal transfer of mRNA.
