In order to gain insight into the molecular events operating downstream of canonical wnt-signaling in myoblasts, we compared by microarray analysis the transcriptome of myoblast cultured for 4 hours in the presence and absence of Wnt3a.

View SamplesThe goal of this study is to compare gene expression levels in uhrf1 mutants with global DNA hypomethylation to WT siblings Overall design: 10 whole embryos were pooled per sample of either 5 dpf old uhrf1 mutants or phenotypically WT siblings and RNA was extracted. Libraries were prepared according to Illumina Truseq RNA sample prep kit, version 2, followed by Ribo-Zero Gold treatment

View SamplesOur data suggest that neoadjuvant chemotherapy enhances anti-cancer responses of T cells in peritoneal metastases of patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer but does not decrease levels of immune checkpoint molecules, providing a rationale for sequential chemo-immunotherapy. Overall design: tRNA was isolated from 35 omental tissue samples of HGSOC metastases either pre or post NACT treatment. RNASeq was performed on poly-A selected mRNA fragments, 100 b.p paired end, and strand specific, on average 40 million reads per sample.

View SamplesNeutrophil homeostasis is maintained, in part, by the regulated release of neutrophils from the bone marrow. Constitutive expression of the chemokine CXCL12 by bone marrow stromal cells provides a key retention signal for neutrophils in the bone marrow through activation of its receptor CXCR4. Herein, we show that the ELR chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL2 are constitutively expressed by bone marrow endothelial cells and osteoblasts, and CXCL2 expression is induced in endothelial cells during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-induced neutrophil mobilization. Neutrophils lacking CXCR2, the receptor for CXCL1 and CXCL2, are preferentially retained in the bone marrow, reproducing a myelokathexis phenotype. Transient disruption of CXCR4 failed to mobilize CXCR2 neutrophils. However, doubly deficient neutrophils (CXCR2-/- CXCR4-/-) displayed constitutive mobilization, showing that CXCR4 plays a dominant role. Collectively, these data suggest that CXCR2 signaling is a second chemokine axis that interacts antagonistically with CXCR4 to regulate neutrophil release from the bone marrow.
CXCR2 and CXCR4 antagonistically regulate neutrophil trafficking from murine bone marrow.

Using a transgenic Tg:Pax7-nGFP mice, we FACS-isolated MuSC from embryonic (E12.5) and foetal (E17.5) stages to understand the differences and similarities amongst the myogenic stem/progenitor populations.

We chose the three strains S, SHR and R for the main purpose of cataloging lncRNA annotations from the most widely used rat models of cardiovascular and renal disease.

View SamplesWe report here that KSHV viral infection targets the NF-kB pathway which is crucial for cell survival. KSHV protein vFLIP K13 is known to directly interact with cellular protein NEMO of the NF-kB pathway. We used gene expression array to suggets that the interaction of K13 with NEMO is important to activate NF-kB pathway.
NEMO is essential for Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-encoded vFLIP K13-induced gene expression and protection against death receptor-induced cell death, and its N-terminal 251 residues are sufficient for this process.
