We measured mRNA abundance in the embryogenic tissue of 150 recombinant Steptoe x Morex doubled-haploid lines (no replicates) and in parental genotypes, Steptoe and Morex, 3 replicates each, total 156 chips.

View SamplesDermal fibroblasts represent a heterogeneous population of cells with diverse features that remain largely undefined due to a lack of functional subclasses. Here we reveal the presence of multiple lineages of dermal fibroblasts within the dorsal back. Genetic lineage tracing and transplantation assays demonstrate that the bulk of connective tissue deposition during embryonic development, cutaneous wound healing, radiation fibrosis, and cancer stroma formation is carried out by a single, somitic-derived fibroblast lineage. Reciprocal transplantation of distinct fibroblast lineages between the dorsal back and oral cavity induced ectopic dermal architectures that mimic their placeof-origin. These studies demonstrate that intra and inter-site diversity of dermal architectures are set embryonically and maintained postnatally by distinct lineages of fibroblasts. Lineage-specific cell ablation using transgenic-mediated expression of the simian diphtheria toxin receptor in conjunction with localized administration of diphtheria toxin led to diminished connective tissue deposition in wounds and significantly reduced melanoma growth in the dorsal skin of mice. Using flow cytometry and in silico approaches, we identify CD26/DPP4 as a surface marker that allows for the isolation of this fibrogenic, scar-forming lineage. Small molecule-based inhibition of CD26/DPP4 enzymatic activity during wound healing results in diminished cutaneous scarring. The identification and prospective isolation of these lineages holds promise for translational medicine aimed at in vivo modulation of their fibrogenic behavior.

View SamplesWe used gene expression microarrays to identify genes whose expression was influenced differently by TNFa in Fancc-deficient mice compared to wild type (WT) mice. To identify genes whose expression was directly or indirectly influenced by Fancc, we looked in particular for genes either suppressed or induced by TNF in WT cells that were not affected by TNF in Fancc-deficient cells.
FANCL ubiquitinates β-catenin and enhances its nuclear function.

View SamplesThis is a class prediction experiment, where the class is the response status to imatinib (also called Gleevec), a drug used to treat patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). There are two data sets, a training set (from Leipzig, 8 Responders and 5 Non-Responders) and a validation set (from Mannheim, 8 Responders and 7 Non-Responders). The objective is to identify differentially regulated genes between CML patients who respond and those who do not respond to imatinib and confirm the results in the validation data set. The samples from blood or bone marrow of CML patients were hybridized to Affymetrix HG-U95Av2 chip and RMA was used to generate the normalized signal values.
In chronic myeloid leukemia white cells from cytogenetic responders and non-responders to imatinib have very similar gene expression signatures.

View SamplesNewly diagnosed chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with a major cytogenetic response (MCyR) after 12 months of imatinib therapy have an excellent long-term outcome, while patients without MCyR have a high progression risk. Since patients with primary cytogenetic resistance may benefit from more intensive therapy up-front, we sought to identify biomarkers to predict MCyR.

View SamplesWe compared the transcriptomes of EpiSCs maintained in the presence or absence of Wnt pathway inhibitor IWP2. We screened also our gene expression data for potential markers for genuine EpiSCs, maintained in the presence of Wnt inhibition and compared with ESC expression data. We compared the transcriptomes of EpiSCs maintained in the presence or absence of IWP2. The high level of Wnt-induced differentiation occurring in conventional EpiSC cultures may have interfered with the analysis of their characteristics. By applying Wnt inhibitors we are now able to establish the properties of genuine EpiSCs.
Endogenous WNT signals mediate BMP-induced and spontaneous differentiation of epiblast stem cells and human embryonic stem cells.

View SamplesIn order to investigate the function of STAT5 in ALL, we isolated bone marrow cells from STAT5 fl/fl mice and transformed them with BCR-ABL1. In a second transduction the BCR-ABL1 driven pre-B cells were transformed either with CRE-GFP or empty vector control (GFP) and subjected to gene expression analysis.

View SamplesCoordinated BCR-ABL1 kinase-dependent and -independent mechanisms convert p27 from a nuclear tumor suppressor to a cytoplasmic oncogene. Persistence of oncogenic p27 functions despite effective inhibition of BCR-ABL1 may contribute to resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Overall design: BCR-ABL1 induced p27 versus knockout, controlling with Empty vector p27 versus knock out
