Affymetrix Rice Genome Array (rice)
Description
High quality RNA was extracted from the whole seedlings (Combined root and leaf samples) using TRI Reagent (Ambion, Inc. USA) and pooled from 12 independent stressed and non-stressed plant samples separately, and treated with DNase-I (QIAGEN GmbH, Germany). Subsequently, RNA cleanup was carried out using RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (QIAGEN GmbH, Germany) and 5 ug of total RNA from each sample in triplicates were reverse-transcribed to double stranded cDNA using the GeneChipﾮ One-Cycle cDNA Synthesis Kit. The biotin-labelled cRNA was made using the GeneChipﾮ IVT Labelling Kit (Affymetrix, CA, USA). Twenty microgram of cRNA samples was fragmented and out of which which 7.5 ug cRNA were hybridized for 16 hours at 45C to the Affymetrix GeneChipﾮ Rice Genome Array (Santa Clara, CA, USA). After washing and staining with R-phycoerythrin streptavidin in a Fluidics Station, using the Genechipﾮ Fluidics Station 450, the arrays were scanned by the Genechipﾮ 3000 Scanner. The chip images were scanned and extracted using default settings and the CEL files were produced with the Affymetrix GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS 1.2). The resulting .CEL files were imported into the GeneSpring GX 10 (Agilent Technologies Inc, Santa Clara CA) and normalized with the PLIER16 algorithm. The resulting expression values were log2-transformed. Average log signal intensity values of three technical replicates for each sample were used for advance analysis.

Description
Twenty one day old seedlings of the mutant and WT grown in hydroponic culture in three replications were subjected to 25% PEG stress for one hour. The leaf samples of stressed and control seedlings were collected and preserved in liquid nitrogen for RNA isolation. Total RNA from four samples i.e. mutant control (MC), mutant stress (MS), Nagina22 control (NC) and Nagina22 stress (NS) was extracted by following the manufacturer‰۪s instructions provided with SV Total RNA isolation system Kit (PROMEGA, USA). All the steps starting from cRNA preparation to hybridization were conducted following the instructions of Affymetrix (AffymetrixGeneChip Expression Analysis Technical Manual). Chips were washed and stained in the Affymetrix Fluidics Station 450, and then scanned using the Affymetrix Gene Chip Scanner 3000. The cell intensity data files (.CEL) generated by the Gene Chip Operating Software (GCOS 1.2).

Description
Androgen receptor (AR) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that plays a key role in the onset and progression of prostate cancer. Surprisingly little is known of AR binding sites and collaborating transcription factors in the human genome. Here we have identified the DNA sequence motifs that are significantly enriched within the authentic 90 AR target regions found on chromosomes 21 and 22 in human prostate cancer cells by combining chromatin immunoprecipitation for AR with chromosome-scale tiled oligonucleotide microarrays. By integrating the DNA sequence motif data with the gene expression profiles from human prostate cancers we identified the transcription factors that recognize each of these motifs. These factors form complexes with AR, bind to specific AR target regions and govern androgen-dependent transcription. Together with AR these collaborating transcription factors form a regulatory network that directs prostate cancer growth and survival and identify potential new opportunities for therapeutic intervention.

Description
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations cause inherited diseases and are implicated in the pathogenesis of common late-onset disorders, but it is not clear how they arise and propagate in the humans. Here we show that mtDNA mutations are present in primordial germ cells (PGCs) within healthy female human embryos. Close scrutiny revealed the signature of selection against non-synonymous variants in the protein-coding region, tRNA gene variants, and variants in specific regions of the non-coding D-loop. In isolated single PGCs we saw a profound reduction in the cellular mtDNA content, with discrete mitochondria containing ~5 mtDNA molecules during early germline development. Single cell deep mtDNA sequencing showed rare variants reaching higher heteroplasmy levels in later PGCs, consistent with the observed genetic bottleneck, and predicting >80% levels within isolated organelles. Genome-wide RNA-seq showed a progressive upregulation of genes involving mtDNA replication and transcription, linked to a transition from glycolytic to oxidative metabolism. The metabolic shift exposes deleterious mutations to selection at the organellar level during early germ cell development. In this way, the genetic bottleneck prevents the relentless accumulation of mtDNA mutations in the human population predicted by Muller's ratchet. Mutations escaping this mechanism will, however, show massive shifts in heteroplasmy levels within one human generation, explaining the extreme phenotypic variation seen in human pedigrees with inherited mtDNA disorders. Overall design: RNA-Seq and NGS analysis to investigate transcriptomes and mtDNA sequences of fetal hPGCs

Description
Pompe disease is caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the GAA gene, which encodes acid alpha-glucosidase. Although enzyme replacement therapy has recently improved patient survival greatly, the results in skeletal muscles and for advanced disease are still not satisfactory. Here, we report the derivation of Pompe disease induced pluripotent stem cells (PomD-iPSCs) and their potential for pathogenesis modeling, drug testing and disease marker identification. PomD-iPSCs maintained pluripotent features, and had low GAA activity and high glycogen content. Cardiomyocyte-like cells (CMLCs) differentiated from PomD-iPSCs recapitulated the hallmark Pompe disease pathophysiological phenotypes, including high levels of glycogen, abundant intracellular LAMP-1- or LC3-positive granules, and multiple ultrastructural aberrances. Drug rescue assessment showed that exposure of PomD-iPSC-derived CMLCs to rhGAA reversed the major pathologic phenotypes. Further, L-carnitine and 3- methyladenine treatment reduced defective cellular respiration and buildup of phagolysosomes, respectively, in the diseased cells. By comparative transcriptome analysis, we identified glycogen metabolism, lysosome and mitochondria related marker genes whose expression robustly correlated with the therapeutic effect of drug treatment in PomD-iPSC-derived CMLCs. Collectively, these results demonstrate that PomD-iPSCs are a promising in vitro disease model for development of novel therapeutic strategies for Pompe disease.
