Description
Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignant clonal disorder of the hematopoietic system caused by the expression of the BCR/ABL fusion oncogene. It is well known that CML cells are genetically unstable. However, the mechanisms by which these cells acquire genetic alterations are poorly understood. Imatinib mesylate (IM) is the standard therapy for newly diagnosed CML patients. IM targets the oncogenic kinase activity of BCR-ABL. Objective: To study the gene expression profile of BM hematopoietic cells in the same patients with CML before and one month after imatinib therapy. Methods: Samples from patients with CML were analyzed using Affymetrix GeneChip Expression Arrays. Results: A total of 594 differentially expressed genes, most of which (393 genes) were downregulated, as a result of imatinib therapy were observed. Conclusions: The blockade of oncoprotein Bcr-abl by imatinib could cause a decrease in the expression of key DNA repair genes, and cells try to restore the normal gene expression levels required for cell proliferation and chromosomal integrity.

Description
In this study we analyzed the behavior of bone marrow MSC (BM-MSC) from MPN patients with the mutation in JAK2V617F. We initially characterized the biological function and gene expression profile changes in BM-MSC from MPN patients when compared to BM-MSC of healthy donors (HD). Then, we established co-cultures between MSC cell lines (HTERT and HS5) and the UKE-1 MPN cell line, and performed RT-PCR to study if the leukemic cells were able to modify the genes related to hematopoietic support.

Description
Cytokine genes are targets of multiple epigenetic mechanisms in T lymphocytes. 5-azacytidine (5-azaC) is a nucleoside-based DNA methyltransferases (DNMT) inhibitor which induces demethylation and gene reactivation. In the current study, we analyzed the effect of 5-azaC in T-cell function and observed that 5-azaC inhibits T-cell proliferation and activation, blocking cell cycle in G0-G1 phase and decreasing the production of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF and IFN. This effect was not due to a pro-apoptotic effect of the drug but to the down-regulation of genes involved in T-cell cycle progression and activation such as CCNG2, MTCP1, CD58, and ADK and up-regulation of genes which induce cell growth arrest, such as DCUN1D2, U2AF2, GADD45B or p53. In spite of being also up-regulated, we did not find any effect of 5-azaC on the methylation pattern of FOXP3. Finally, the administration of 5-azaC at 60 and 84 hours post-transplant prevented the development of GVHD leading to a significant increase in survival in a fully mismatched BMT mouse model. In conclusion, the current study shows the effect of 5-azaC in T-lymphocytes and illustrates its role in the allogeneic transplantation setting as an immunomodulatory drug, describing new pathways which must be explored in order to prevent graft-versus-host disease.

Description
We have previously reported that tyrosol (TYR), one of the main phenols in extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), promotes lifespan extension in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, also inducing a stronger resistance to thermal and oxidative stress in this animal model. Although the influence of several longevity-related genes in these effects has been reported by our group, we decided to perform a whole genome DNA-microarray approach in order to identify other genes and molecular pathways further involved in TYR effects on C. elegans longevity. Microarray analysis identified 208 differentially expressed genes (206 overexpressed and 2 underexpressed) when comparing TYR-treated nematodes with non-treated controls. Many of these genes seem linked to processes such as regulation of growth, transcription, reproduction, lipid metabolism and body morphogenesis. Data obtained by microarray was validated by qRT-PCR analysis of selected genes. Our results confirm that several important cellular mechanisms related to longevity are influenced by TYR treatment in this animal model. Moreover, we detected an interesting overlap between the expression pattern elicited by TYR and those induced by other dietary polyphenols known to extend lifespan in C. elegans, such as quercetin and tannic acid.

Description
Characterization of genes associated with adipose tissue is key to understanding the pathogenesis of obesity and developing treatments for this disorder. Differential gene expression in the adipose tissue has been described in adulthood but none studies have been developed on childhood. The purpose of this study was to compare gene expression in omental adipose tissue from obese prepubertal and normal weight children. We selected 5 obese (BMI adjusted for age and sex z score >2) and 6 normal weight children. RNA was extracted from omental adipose tissue biopsies and cRNA was hybridizated on the human genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays (Affymetrix). Microarray experiments were performed for each sample, and selected group of gene expression values were confirmed with real-time RT-PCR in 10 obese and 10 normal weigth prepubertal children. 1276 genes were found to be differentially expressed at P<0.05. Of those differential genes, 201 were upregulated (Fc>2) and 42 were downregulated (Fc<-2). Genes involved in metabolic and signalling pathways were altered in childhood obesity.

Description
We have found the existence of a Bmi1+ population in the adult heart contributing to the organ low-rate turnover and repair with the generation of new cardiomyocytes. We show that the Bmi1+ population is a sub-population of the cardiac Sca-1+ progenitor cells. We have analyzed the gene profile by deep-sequencing (RNA-Seq) of Bmi1+ and Sca-1+Bmi1- cells in homeostatic heart condition. On the other hand, we have compared gene profile by deep-sequencing (RNA-Seq) of Bmi1+ cells in homeostatic condition versus Bmi1+ cells 5 days after myocardial infarction (MI). Analysis of RNA-Seq data revealed a differential expression signature between both subsets of cardiac stem/progenitors cells in homeostatic condition and also differences between Bmi1+ cells after AMI versus homeostatic condition. Overall design: Examination of gene profile of 2 different cardiac stem /progenitors subsets (Bmi1+ and Sca-1+Bmi1-) co-existing inthe adult heart under steady state.

Description
We report the global gene expression of mouse pancreatic cells in a pancreas-specific conditional knock-out mouse for Gata6, as compared with age-matched controls. Total RNA was extracted from the pancreas of 6-8 -week old mice of the two genotypes and analyzed. at this age, Gata6P-/- pancreata are histologically normal, but the acinar differentiation programme is already altered. we observe that loss of Gata6 causes the de-repression of ectopic non-pancreatic genes, as well as some genes involved in the mesenchymal programme. Overall design: mRNA extracted from the pancreas of 4 controls and 4 Gata6P-/- mice was sequenced.
