Description
Medulloblastoma is the most common form of malignant paediatric brain tumour and is the leading cause of childhood cancer related mortality. The four molecular subgroups of medulloblastoma that have been identified WNT, SHH, Group 3 and Group 4 - have molecular and topographical characteristics suggestive of different cells of origin. Definitive identification of the cell(s) of origin of the medulloblastoma subgroups, particularly the poorer prognosis Group 3 and Group 4 medulloblastoma, is critical to understand the pathogenesis of the disease, and ultimately for the development of more effective treatment options.

Illumina HiSeq 2000
Description
We differentiated the murine IDG-SW3 cell line for 28 days until the cells displayed a mature osteocyte-like phenotype. Triplicate cultures of the IDG-SW3 cells were then treated with 50nM PTH (1-34) or vehicle control (PBS) for 24 hours. RNA was harvested from the cultures and used to perform RNA Seq analysis. We found that many genes previously shown to be markers of the osteocyte phenotype were strongly downregulated in response to PTH treatment. Furthermore, we found that genes known to inhibit cell motility were downregulated in response to PTH, whereas genes promoting motility were upregulated. This corresponds to the increased cell motility observed in PTH-treated IDG-SW3 cell cultures. Therefore, PTH induces a switch in mature IDG-SW3 cells from a osteocyte-like cell to a more motile phenotype. Overall design: RNA expression profiles of control and PTH-treated 28 day differentiated IDG-SW3 cells.

Description
In this study, we analyzed the impact of a mutation in the wrn-1 gene compared to wild type worms and the dietary supplementation of vitamin C on the global mRNA expression of the whole C. elegans by the RNA-seq technology. Overall design: Whole C. elegans mRNA profiles at the L4 stage of wild type and wrn-1(gk99) mutant animals treated with or without 10 mM ascorbate were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using the HiSeq 2000 machine form Illumina. Detailed statistics on the quality of the reads were calculated with FastQC (http://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/fastqc/). The 50 base pairs raw sequences were aligned on the C. elegans ce10/W220 genome with TopHat using the Ensembl annotations provided with the Illumina iGenomes. The htseq-count software (http://www-huber.embl.de/users/anders/HTSeq) was used to count the number of reads aligned to each gene. These counts were then normalized relative to the sequencing depth with DESeq.

Description
The pathways regulating the formation of the germinal center (GC) dark- (DZ) and light- (LZ) zones are unknown. We show that FOXO1 expression is restricted to the GC DZ and is required for DZ formation, since its absence in mice leads to the complete loss of DZ gene programs and the formation of LZ-only GCs. FOXO1-negative GC B-cells display normal somatic hypermutation, but defective affinity maturation and class switch recombination. The function of FOXO1 in sustaining the DZ program involves the transactivation of the chemokine receptor CXCR4, and the cooperation with BCL6 in the trans-repression of genes involved in immune activation, DNA-repair and plasma cell differentiation. These results have also implications for understanding the role of FOXO1 mutations in lymphomagenesis.

Description
Genome-wide mapping and characterization of novel Notch-regulated long non-coding RNAs in acute leukemia Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from samples using the RNeasy Plus mini kit (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). Samples were then subject to PolyA selection (Figures 1E, 5F and 5G only) using oligo-dT beads (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) or rRNA removal (all other samples) using the Ribo-Zero kit (Epicentre, Madison, WI) according to the manufacturers instructions. The resulting RNA samples were then used as input for library construction using the dUTP method as described by Parkhomchuck et al, 2009. RNA libraries were then sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 or 2500 using 50bp paired-end reads.

Description
Sequencing studies from several model systems have suggested that diverse and abundant small RNAs may derive from tRNA, but the function of these molecules remains undefined. Here we demonstrate that one such tRNA fragment, cloned from human B cells and designated CU1276, in fact possesses the functional characteristics of a microRNA, including a DICER1-dependent biogenesis, physical association with Argonaute proteins, and the ability to repress mRNA transcripts in a sequence-specific manner. The gene expression profiling undertaken for this study was done in order to assay mRNA-level changes in 293T cells upon modulation of CU1276 levels, and thereby to identify direct targets of this sequence. Ultimately, we fully validated the endogenous gene RPA1 as a CU1276 target.
