Description
To identify host factors that influence the immunogenicity of the attenuated VZV pOka vaccine strain and the efficacy of VZV vaccination, we immunized 39 individuals aged 50 to 75 years, including 9 monozygotic twin pairs. We measured VZV-specific T cell frequencies by IFN-specific ELISpot, and VZV-specific antibody titers by ELISA. Whole gene expression arrays were performed on vaccinees before (n=28) and one (n=18) or three days (n=10) after vaccination. Cell-specific gene expression profiles were generated by deconvolution using previously described algorithms. Only very few neutrophil- and lymphocyte-related genes changed in expression from day 0 to 1. Significant changes for monocyte-related genes were found, but even here the number of probes with a significant change was low after adjusting for false discovery. When expression changes in monocyte-derived genes were analyzed for their correlation with T cell responses, we identified 493 probes corresponding to 479 genes that correlated with generation of VZV-specific effector T cells and 641 probes corresponding to 621 genes that correlated with the subsequent contraction phase with p<0.05. Interestingly, these two sets of genes were significantly overlapping, i.e., the same changes that were positively or negatively correlated with expansion inversely predicted contraction; their effects therefore cancelled out in determining net benefit in memory cell generation.

Description
The objective of the overall study was to determine the effects of oral vitamin D supplementation on alveolar macrophages from human subjects. In this substudy, subjects treated with vitamin D (intervention group) in paired analysis had small, but significant effects on immune-related differential gene expression pre versus post supplementation.

Description
CD90+ prostate cancer-associated (CP) stromal cells represent a disease cell type found only in tumor tissue. Genetic reprogramming by induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell technology might be used to normal gene expression of diseased cells thereby providing a cure. The resultant iPS cells would no longer express the disease program, and, like stem cells, might respond to normal differentiative signaling. Thus, CP stromal cells, isolated from tumor tissue and cultured in vitro, were transfected with POU5F1/LIN28/NANOG/SOX2 lentiviral vectors. iPS cells were obtained at a frequency of 10^4. Transcriptome analysis showed an almost complete match in gene expression between the iPS cells and human embryonic stem cells. Genes of CP stromal cells were fully inactivated.

Description
Definitive hematopoietic cells arise from hemogenic endothelium during mid-gestation, indicating a direct link between blood and the endothelial-lined vessels. We sought to determine whether mutations initiated in the hemogenic endothelium would yield hematopoietic abnormalities or malignancies. Here we demonstrate that transposon mutagenesis targeting endothelial cells in mice promotes the development of hematopoietic pathologies that are both myeloid and lymphoid in nature. Sequencing of the disrupted genes identified several previously recognized candidate cancer drivers and furthermore revealed that mutations in the lipid kinase Pi4ka can result in myeloid and erythroid dysfunction. Subsequent validation experiments showed that targeted inactivation of the Pi4ka catalytic domain or reduction in mRNA expression inhibited myeloid and erythroid cell differentiation in vitro and promoted anemia in vivo through a mechanism that includes, but it is not limited to deregulation of Akt signaling. Finally, we provide evidence linking PI4KAP2, previously considered a “pseudogene”, with human myeloid and erythroid leukemia. Overall design: mRNA transcriptional comparison between two pieces of spleen from three SBxVEC-Cre+ animals and three control animals to assess clonality of each spleen as a whole.

Description
White Striping and Wooden Breast (WS/WB) are abnormalities increasingly occurring in the fillets of high breast yield and growth rate chicken hybrids. These defects lead to consistent economic losses for poultry meat industry, as affected broilers fillets present an impaired visual appearance that negatively affects consumers acceptability. Previous studies have highlighted in affected fillets a deeply damaged muscle, showing profound inflammation, fibrosis and lipidosis. The present study investigated the differentially expressed genes and pathways linked to the compositional changes observed in WS/WB breast muscles, in order to outline a more complete framework of the gene networks related to the occurrence of this complex pathological picture. The biochemical composition was performed on 20 Pectoralis major samples obtained from high breast yield and growth rate broilers (10 affected vs. 10 normal) and 12 out of the 20 samples were used for the microarray gene expression profiling (6 affected vs. 6 normal). The obtained results indicate strong changes in muscle mineral composition, coupled to an increased deposition of fat. In addition, 204 differentially expressed genes (DEG) were found: 102 up-regulated and 102 down-regulated in affected breasts. The gene expression pathways found more altered in WS/WB muscles are those related to muscle development, polysaccharide metabolic processes, proteoglycans synthesis, inflammation and calcium signaling pathway. On the whole, the findings suggest that a multifactorial and complex etiology is associated with the occurrence of WS/WB muscle abnormalities, contributing to further define the transcription patterns associated to these myopathies.

Description
To establish effective multitargeted KRAS pathway therapy, we analyzed mediators of acquired resistance to chronic momelotinib and MEK inhibitor exposure in A549 cells. Since inhibitor resistance was completely reversible after drug withdrawal for several passages, suggesting epigenetic reprogramming, we investigated whole mRNA expression profiles in A549, momelotinib and selumetinib resistant (MSR)-A549 cells and MSR-A549 cells following drug withdrawal for 10 days. In parallel, we also examined mRNA expression profiles of MSR-A549 cells treated with the BET inhibitor JQ1, to identify specific targets regulated by H3K27 acetylation. Overall design: mRNA profile of MSR-A549 cells with or without JQ1 treatment.
