Description
Primary diffuse large B cell lymphomas of different immune-privileged sites (IP-DLBCL) share many clinical and biological features, such as a relatively poor prognosis, preferential dissemination to other immune-privileged sites and deletion of the HLA region, which suggests that IP-DLBCL represents a separate entity. To further investigate the nature of IP-DLBCL, we investigated site-specific genomic aberrations in 16 testicular, 9 central nervous system (CNS) and 15 nodal DLBCL using array-CGH. We also determined minimal common regions of gain and loss. Using robust algorithms, the array-CGH data were combined with gene expression data to explore pathways deregulated by chromosomal aberrations.

Description
Preterm infants are susceptible to neonatal inflammatory/infective diseases requiring drug therapy. The present study hypothesized that mRNA expression in the blood may be modulated by signaling pathways during treatment. The current study aimed to explore changes in global gene expression in the blood from preterm infants with the objective of identifying patterns or pathways of potential relevance to drug therapy. The infants involved were selected based on maternal criteria indicating increased risk for therapeutic intervention. Global mRNA expression was measured in 107 longitudinal whole blood samples using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays; samples were obtained from 20 preterm infants. Unsupervised clustering revealed a distinct homogeneous gene expression pattern in 13 samples derived from seven infants undergoing continuous oxygen therapy. At these sampling times, all but one of the seven infants exhibited severe drops in peripheral capillary saturation levels below 60%. The infants were reoxygenated with 100% inspired oxygen concentration. The other samples (n=94) represented the infants from the cohort at time points when they did not undergo continuous oxygen therapy. Comparing these two sets of samples identified a distinct gene expression pattern of 5,986 significantly differentially expressed genes, of which 5,167 genes exhibited reduced expression levels during transient hypoxia. This expression pattern was reversed when the infants became stable, i.e., when they were not continuously oxygenated and had no events of hypoxia. To identify signaling pathways involved in gene regulation, the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery online tool was used. Mitogen activated protein kinases, which are normally induced by oxidative stress, exhibited reduced gene expression during hypoxia. In addition, nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2 antioxidant response element target genes involved in oxidative stress protection were also expressed at lower levels, suggesting reduced transcription of this pathway. The findings of the present study suggest that oxidative stress dependent signaling is reduced during hypoxia. Understanding the molecular response in preterm infants during continuous oxygenation may aid in refining therapeutic strategies for oxygen therapy.

Description
Piwi proteins and Piwi-interacting small RNAs (piRNAs) have known functions in transposon silencing in the male germline of fetal and newborn mice. Both are also necessary for spermatogenesis in adult testes, however, their function here remains a mystery. Here, we use germ cell isolations and small RNA sequencing to show that most piRNAs in meiotic spermatocytes originate from clusters in intergenic non-repeat regions of DNA. The regulation of these piRNA clusters, including the processing of the precursor transcripts into individual piRNAs, is accomplished through mostly unknown processes. We present evidence for a regulatory mechanism for one such cluster, named cluster 1082B, located on chromosome 7 in the mouse genome, containing 788 unique piRNAs. The precursor transcript and individual piRNAs within the cluster are repressed by the Alkbh1 dioxygenase and the transcription repressor Tzfp, which are believed to be interaction partners in testis. We observe more than a thousand-fold upregulation of individual piRNAs in pachytene spermatocytes isolated from Alkbh1-/- and TzfpGTi/GTi testes. Repression is further supported by the identification of a 10 bp Tzfp recognition sequence contained within the precursor transcript. Downregulation of long interspersed elements 1 (LINE1) and intracisternal A-particle (IAP) transcripts in the Alkbh1-/- and TzfpGTi/GTi testes leads us to propose a potential role for the 1082B-encoded piRNAs in transposon silencing. Overall design: Characterization of small RNAs in mouse pachytene spermatocytes for wild-type (WT) and Alkbh1-/- and TzfpGTi/GTi, and mRNA in mouse pachytene spermatocytes for wild-type (WT) and Alkbh1-/-

Description
Arsenic contamination of drinking water occurs globally and is associated with numerous diseases including skin, lung, and bladder cancers, and cardiovascular disease. The mechanisms behind arsenic's effects remain unclear, but recent research indicates that aresnic acts along sex-specific lines and may be an endocrine disruptor. The objective of this study was to evaluate the nature of gene expression chagnes among males and females exposed to arsenic contaminated water in Bangladesh at high and low dose exposures.The median wAs concentration for the low exposure group was 103 g/L for males and 117 g/L for females (range 50200 g/L). For the high exposure group, the median wAs concentration was 355 g /L for males (range 250-500 g /L) and 434 g/L for females (range 2321000 g /L). The PBMCs of males with high exposure compared to those with low exposure there were 534 differentially expressed genes (p <0.05); and for females with high exposure relative to low exposure there were 645 differentially expressed genes (p <0.05) in PBMCs of females.

Description
The special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (SATB2) is a protein that binds to the nuclear matrix attachment region of the cell and regulates gene expression by altering chromatin structure. We show that ectopic expression of SATB2 in normal human bronchial epithelial cell-line BEAS2B increased anchorage-independent growth and cell migration,RNA sequencing analyses of SATB2 regulated genes revealed the enrichment of those involved in cytoskeleton, cell adhesion and cell-movement pathways. Overall design: Total RNA samples from 2 vector transfected clonesand 2 SATB2 transfected were converted into cDNA libraries using a Tru-seq RNA Sample Preparation v2 Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Reads were aligned to Ensemble gene model (Homo_sapiens.GRCh37.71.gtf) using HTseq (0.6.1.p.1)
