Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
This study investigated gene expression changes in whole blood samples obtained from donors diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) compared to healthy controls. Micro-array data were available from whole blood on patients with MDD (N=128, 64 with generalised anxiety disorder, diagnosed by the MINI questionnaire, and 64 without anxiety disorder) and healthy controls (N=64). RNA was isolated from all samples using the standard PAXgene protocol on the Qiagen Biorobot 8000. All samples gave good quality RNA, as assessed by Agilent Bioanalyser. The yield range was 0.86-15.05ug with an average of 6.25ug. Samples were then randomised into batches, with each batch containing a representative number of controls, depression with anxiety and depression without anxiety, and the same ratio of females to males (3:1). 50ng of RNA from each sample was converted to a biotin labeled cDNA probe using NuGEN SPIA amplification. The probes were then hybridized to Affymetrix U133_Plus2.0 Genechips.

Description
We have identified desmoglein 2 (DSG2) as the primary high-affinity receptor used by adenovirus (Ad) serotypes Ad3, Ad7, and Ad14. These serotypes represent important human pathogens causing respiratory tract infections. In epithelial cells, adenovirus binding to DSG2 triggers events reminiscent of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, leading to transient opening of intercellular junctions. This improves access to receptors, e.g. CD46 and Her2/neu, that are trapped in intercellular junctions. In addition to complete virions, dodecahedral particles (PtDd) formed by viral penton and fiber in excess during viral replication, can trigger DSG2-mediated opening of intercellular junctions as shown by studies with recombinant Ad3 PtDd. Our findings shed light on adenovirus biology and pathogenesis and have implications for cancer therapy.

Description
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous gammaherpes virus that establishes a life-long latency in over 90% of the world's population. Epstein Barr Nuclear Antigen 1, EBNA1, is the only viral protein consistently detected in all viral latency programs, as well as in all forms of EBV-associated malignancies. EBNA1 plays critical roles in the viral life cycle by fostering the replication and maintenance of the extrachromosomal viral genome as well as enhancing transcription from multiple viral promoters.

- Affymetrix HT Mouse Genome 430A Array (htmg430a)
Description
Identify genes in the epididymal adipose tissue whose expression is under genetic regulation in the hybrid mouse diversity panel. The hybrid mouse diversity panel is comprised of classical inbred and recombinant inbred wild type mice. The RMA values of genes were used for genome wide association as described in Bennett et al Genome Research 2010. These data are used to identify candidate genes at loci associated with obesity and dietary responsiveness.
Publication Title

Description
Virus infection and over expression of protein in cytosol induce a subset of HSP70s. We named this response the Cytosolic Protein Response (CPR) and have been investigating it in the context of a parallel mechanism in the soluble cytosol with the UPR, and as a subcomponent of the larger HS response. This experiment was carried out to study the transcriptional aspect of CPR. In this analysis, we have triggered CPR by infiltrating proline analogue, L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (AZC) into Arabidopsis mature leaves. Since AZC trigger unfolded protein response(UPR) in ER as well as CPR, we have included tunicamycin treatment, which is a specific inducer of UPR to subtract the effect of UPR from the AZC response. Heat shocked samples were included to identify CPR as a subcomponent of larger HS response.

Description
Cellular responses to carcinogens are typically studied in transformed cell lines, which do not reflect the physiological status of normal tissues. To address this question, we have characterized the transcriptional program and cellular responses of normal human lung WI-38 fibroblasts upon exposure to the ultimate carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide (BPDE). Exposure to BPDE induces a strong inflammatory response in WI-38 primary fibroblasts. Whole-genome microarray analysis shows induction of several genes related to the production of inflammatory factors, including those that encode interleukins (ILs), growth factors, and enzymes related to prostaglandin synthesis and signaling. This is the first demonstration that a strong inflammatory response is triggered in primary fibroblasts in response to a reactive diol epoxide derived from a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon.
Publication Title
Benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide stimulates an inflammatory response in normal human lung fibroblasts through a p53 and JNK mediated pathway.
