- Affymetrix Rhesus Macaque Genome Array (rhesus)
Description
The SIVmac251 macaque model has been used to evaluate the efficacy of vaccine for HIV. Exposure of macaques to a single high dose of SIVmac251 results in transmission of multiple viral variants, which contrasts the few HIV variants typically transmitted in humans. In here, we investigated whether the dose of SIVmac251 challenge affected vaccination efficacy and found that exposure of the immunized macaques to single high dose of SIVmac251 resulted in no vaccine efficacy, whereas exposure to a tenfold lower dose resulted in protection from SIVmac251 acquisition and protection from disease in animals that become infected. The dose of challenge did not affect the expression of inflammatory genes in the gut in acute infection, but at set point, a significant down regulation of interferon responsive genes and up regulation of genes involved in B and T-cell responses, was observed only in vaccinated animals exposed to a lower dose of SIVmac251. Accordingly, in these animals, we also found a significant correlation with vaccine induced T-cell responses and protection from disease. These data demonstrate that the evaluation of the efficacy of vaccine candidates for HIV relies on accurate modeling in macaques to better mimic HIV transmission to humans.

Description
Loss-of-function studies are fundamental for dissecting gene function. Yet, methods to rapidly and effectively perturb genes in mammalian cells are scarce. We present a novel system, deliverable with only two lentiviral vectors, which enables simultaneous control over two different proteins in the same cell. By harnessing the plant auxin and jasmonate hormone-induced degradation pathways, combined with RNA interference, this system allows constitutive depletion of two endogenous proteins and their replacement with two exogenous proteins whose degradation is rapidly and reversibly induced by external ligands, representing a dual analog molecular tuner. Focusing on NANOG, CHK1 and NOTCH1 in embryonic stem cells and p53 in cancer cells we have validated the efficiency, rapidity, reversibility, titratability and multiplicity of the engineered tuners, and demonstrated their potential to facilitate previously-unfeasible experimental approaches and to generate novel biological insights. Overall design: For mRNA-Seq preparation, coronatine/DMSO treated cells were collected.

Hox genes are critical developmental transcription factor. We found that in mice with disrupted expression of Hoxa6, Hoxb6 and Hoxc6 there is significantly disrupted endocrine pancreas development. We used microarray analysis to probe for possible molecular mechanisms involed in Hox6 signaling in pancreas development.

Description
Macrophages were infected with low (PR8) and high pathogenic influenza viruses (FPV and H5N1). To our surprise a genome-wide comparative systems biology approach revealed that in contrast PR8 infections with HPAIV H5N1 and FPV result in a reduced immune response of human macrophages contradicting a primary role of this cell type for the cytokine storm.
Publication Title
Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses inhibit effective immune responses of human blood-derived macrophages.

Description
Dendritic cells (DCs) in lymphoid tissue comprise conventional DCs (cDCs) and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) that develop from common DC progenitors (CDPs). CDPs are Flt3+c-kitintM-CSFR+ and reside in bone marrow. Here we describe a two-step culture system that recapitulates DC development from c-kithiFlt3-/lo multipotent progenitors (MPPs) into CDPs and further into cDC and pDC subsets. MPPs and CDPs are amplified in vitro with Flt3 ligand, stem cell factor, hyper-IL-6 and insulin- like growth factor-1. The four-factor cocktail readily induces self-renewal of MPPs and their progression into CDPs and has no self-renewal activity on CDPs. The amplified CDPs respond to all known DC poietins and generate all lymphoid tissue DCs in vivo and in vitro. Additionally, in vitro CDPs recapitulate the cell surface marker and gene expression profile of in vivo CDPs and possess a DC-primed transcription profile. Transforming growth factor-1 (TGF-1) impacts on CDPs and directs their differentiation towards cDCs. Genome-wide gene expression profiling of TGF-1-induced genes identified transcription factors, such as interferon regulatory factor-4 (IRF-4) and RelB, that are implicated as instructive factors for cDC subset specification. TGF-1 also induced the transcription factor inhibitor of differentiation/DNA binding 2 (Id2) that suppresses pDC development. Thus, TGF-1 directs CDP differentiation into cDC by inducing both cDC instructive factors and pDC inhibitory factors.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.1 ST Array (mogene11st)
Description
In order to investigate genes regulated by Wnt/Beta-catenin-signaling in immortalized mouse adrenocortical cells, we treated a pair of ATCL7 cell cultures, one with BIO, a small molecule mimicking Wnt/Beta-catenin-signaling, the other with a control treatment. We repeated this 3 additional times resulting in 4 pairs of samples. The Wnt/beta-catenin pathway is not basally active in ATCL7 cells, nor do these cells appear to contain any mutations in the Wnt/Beta-catenin pathway. ATCL7 cells were grown under standard conditions at 37C in a humidified incubator containing 5% CO2. 250,000 ATCL7 cells per sample were treated with 0.5uM BIO (6-Bromoindirubin-3'-oxime) or 0.01% DMSO (v/v) for 24 hours, in DMEM:F12 growth media containing 100U/mL pencillin/streptomycin, 1X insulin-transferrin-selenium-X, 0.025% fetal bovine serum and 0.025% horse serum. Cells were harvested and RNA was extracted using an RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (Qiagen). Biotinylated cDNA were prepared according to the Ambion WT kit protocol from 250 ng total RNA (GeneAtlas WT Expression Kit User Manual P/N 702935 Rev. 3). We assayed the targets with Affymetrix Mouse Gene ST 1.1 strip arrays. We modeled the data using paired T-tests for each probe-set. We also supply a supplementary file holding the data and some statistical analysis, as well as probe-set annotation that we used at that time (users may wish to obtain new annotation though). We analyzed only 28944 probe-sets with category "main", "---", and "flmrna->unmapped" according to Affymetrix annotation.

Description
We sought to determine which gene transcripts are enriched in Wnt-responsive adrenocortical mouse cells compared to the entire adrenocortical mouse cell population in vivo. To this end, we employed transgenic reporter mice that label Wnt-responsive cells with GFP expression (TCF/Lef:H2B-GFP mice) or label all adrenocortical cells with GFP expression (Sf1:eGFP mice). GFP-positive adrenocortical cells were obtained from 6-week-old male TCF/Lef:H2B-GFP mice and Sf1:eGFP mice independently. 10 adrenals per genotype per sort were minced and digested by incubation in DMEM:F12 containing 0.1% collagenase/ 0.01% DNaseI solution for 1 h at 37C. A single cell suspension was obtained following mechanical dispersion, filtration through a 40 micron nylon cell strainer, centrifugation at 1500rpm for 5 min followed by re-suspension in sterile 1X PBS containing 10% cosmic calf serum and 10g/mL Propidium iodide. 10,000-50,000 viable GFP-positive cells were isolated via FACS using a BD FACSAria III cell sorter. RNA was extracted using an RNeasy Micro Kit (Qiagen) from 4 independent sorts per genotype. cDNA were prepared according to the NuGen WT-Pico V2 kit protocol from 5 ng total RNA (Ovation PicoSL WTA System V2 P/N 3312). Biotinylated single-stranded cDNA were prepared from 3ug of cDNA (Encore Biotin Module P/N 4200-12, 4200-60, 4200-A01). Targets were assayed on the Mouse Gene ST 1.1 strip arrays using the Affymetrix Gene Atlas system (software version 1.0.4.267). One TCF/Lef:H2B-GFP array was deemed low-quality and discarded. Two-sample T-tests were used to compare the two groups of samples. We also supply a supplementary file holding the data and some statistical analysis, as well as probe-set annotation that we used at that time (users may wish to obtain new annotation though). We analyzed only 28944 probe-sets with category "main", "---", and "flmrna->unmapped" according to Affymetrix annotation.
