Description
To explore the primary cause of Dilated Cardiomyopathy in heart samples from DCM-diagnosed patients who had undergone heart transplant (hDCM), we set out to identify differentially expressed genes by massively parallel sequencing of heart samples. Overall design: Methods: Heart mRNA profiles from DCM-diagnosed patients who had undergone heart transplant (hDCM) were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx.

Description
To explore the primary cause of Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Bmi1-null mice, we set out to identify differentially expressed genes by massively parallel sequencing of heart samples from Bmi1f/f;aMHCTM-Cretg/+ mice versus aMHCTM-Cretg/+ control mice (17 weeks postinduction). Overall design: Methods: Heart mRNA profiles of 17-weeks post-induction Bmi1f/f; MHCTM-Cretg/+ mice and MHCTM-Cretg/+ control mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. Sequence reads were pre-processed with Cutadapt 1.2.1, to remove TruSeq adapters and mapped on the mouse transcriptome (Ensembl gene-build GRCm38.v70) using RSEM v1.2.3. The Bioconductor package EdgeR was used to normalize data with TMM and to test for differential expression of genes using GLM.

Description
Sadanandam et al. (2013) recently published a study based on the use of microarray data to classify colorectal cancer (CRC) samples. The classification claimed to have strong clinical implications, as reflected in the paper title: A colorectal cancer classification system that associates cellular phenotype and responses to therapy. They defined five subtypes: (i) inflammatory; (ii) goblet-like; (iii) enterocyte; (iv) transit-amplifying; and (v) stem-like. Based on drug sensitivity data from 21 patients, they also reported that the so-called stem-like subtype show differential sensitivity to FOLFIRI. This is the key result in their publication, since it implies a direct relation between the subtype and the choice of CRC therapy (i.e. FOLFIRI response). However, our analyses using the same drug sensitivity data and results from additional patients showed that the CRC classification reported by Sadanandam et al. is not predictive of FOLFIRI response.
Publication Title
Colorectal cancer classification based on gene expression is not associated with FOLFIRI response.

Description
Substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) is highly sensitive to normal aging and selectively degenerates in Parkinson's disease. However, ventral tegmental area (VTA), a region adjacent to SNpc, is less affected in PD. Until now, molecular mechanisms behind VTA aging have not been fully investigated using high throughput techniques.

Description
Impaired DNA replication is a hallmark of cancer and a cause of genomic instability. We report that, in addition to causing genetic change, impaired DNA replication during embryonic development can have major epigenetic consequences for a genome. In a genome-wide screen, we identified impaired DNA replication as causing increased expression from a repressed transgene in Caenorhabditis elegans. The acquired expression state behaved as an “epiallele,” being inherited for multiple generations before fully resetting. Derepression was not restricted to the transgene but was caused by a global reduction in heterochromatin-associated histone modifications due to the impaired retention of modified histones on DNA during replication in the early embryo. Impaired DNA replication during development can therefore globally derepress chromatin, creating new intergenerationally inherited epigenetic expression states. Overall design: 3 replicates of div-1 mutant worms and N2 wild type worms
Publication Title
Impaired DNA replication derepresses chromatin and generates a transgenerationally inherited epigenetic memory.

Description
Transcriptional profiles of uropathogenic Escherichia coli CFT073 exposed to cranberry-derived proanthocyanidins (PACs) were determined. Our results indicate that bacteria grown on media supplemented with PACs were iron-deprived. To our knowledge, this is the first time that PACs have been shown to induce a state of iron-limitation in this bacterium.

Description
Transcriptional profiles of Escherichia coli MG1655 in mixed culture with Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 showed a number of E. coli genes to be upregulated including purA-F and other genes associated with purine synthesis. In contrast, genes associated with pyrimidine synthesis were unaffected. Competition experiments in both planktonic and biofilm cultures, using three purine synthesis mutants, purD, purH, and purT showed little difference in E. coli survival from the parent strain. As purines are components of the cell signals, cAMP and c-di-GMP, we conducted competition experiments with E. coli mutants lacking adenylate cyclase (cyaA), cAMP phosphodiesterase (cpdA), and the catabolite receptor protein (crp), as well as ydeH, an uncharacterized gene that has been associated with c-di-GMP synthesis. Survival of the cyaA and crp mutants during co-culture were significantly less than the parent strain. Supplementation of the media with 1mM cAMP could restore survival of the cyaA mutant but not the crp mutant. In contrast, survival of the cpdA mutant was similar to the parent strain. Survival of the ydeH mutant was moderately less than the parent, suggesting that cAMP has more impact on E. coli mixed culture growth than c-di-GMP. Addition of 1 mM indole restored the survival of both the cyaA and crp mutations. Mutants in genes for tryptophan synthesis (trpE) and indole production (tnaA) showed a loss of competition and recovery through indole supplementation, comparable to the cyaA and crp mutants. Overall, these results suggest indole and cAMP as major contributing factors to E. coli growth in mixed culture.
