View SamplesAnalysis of primary human bronchial epithelial cells grown in air liquid interface, exposed in vitro to whole tobacco cigarette smoke (48 puffs, 48 minutes) and electronic cigarette aerosol (400 puffs, 200 minutes). Electronic cigarette exposures included two flavors (menthol, tobacco) both with, and without nicotine.

View SamplesWe sought to characterize expression profiles signifying the development of atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH) from normal lung parenchyma (NL), and its progression to lung adenocarcinomas (LUAD). Overall design: We performed transcriptome sequencing of 48 samples, comprising NLs, AAHs and LUADs, from 17 patients. Sequencing was performed using the Ion Torrent platform afterwhich gene profiles differentially expressed among the three groups were determined.

View SamplesThe gene expression of murine splenic myeloid derived suppressor cells treated with Tff2 is characterized. The motivation of the study originates in the fact that Gr1+Cd11b+ myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), which resemble immature myeloid cells (IMCs), expand during cancer in response to inflammatory cytokines and accumulate in the spleen. MDSCs promote neoplastic progression through their suppression of anti-tumourigenic cytotoxic T-cells. MDSCs are also rapidly expanded following acute insults, but in cancer as opposed to acute inflammation, MDSCs persist. It is now recognized that a vagally-mediated, anti-inflammatory reflex arc promoting acetylcholine secretion by Cd4+ (Cd44hiSelllo) T cells, is necessary for a return to homeostasis after an acute insult. Failure of this restorative neural circuit might contribute to unabated procarcinogenic inflammation, with the chronic expansion of MDSCs driving carcinogenesis. Trefoil factor 2 (Tff2) is a secreted anti-inflammatory peptide produced by both epithelial cells and a small subset of splenic T cell.
Neural innervation stimulates splenic TFF2 to arrest myeloid cell expansion and cancer.

View SamplesSnail is a zinc-finger transcription factor best known for its ability to down-regulate E-cadherin. Its established significance in embryology and organogenesis has been expanded to include a role in the tumor progression of a number of human cancers. In addition to E-cadherin, it has more recently been associated with the down-regulation and up-regulation of a number of other genes that affect important malignant phenotypes.
Snail promotes CXCR2 ligand-dependent tumor progression in non-small cell lung carcinoma.

View SamplesPrimary HBE cells were stimulated with IL-22 and IL-17, and gene expression was studied using an Affymetrix platform microarray, in order to investigate which genes may be upregulated or downregulated in response to these cytokines. Of particular interest was the host defense genes such as antimicrobial peptides, which have been shown to be upregulated by IL-22 and IL-17 in skin keratinocytes.
IL-22 mediates mucosal host defense against Gram-negative bacterial pneumonia.
