Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Gene expression profiles of 75 tissue samples were analyzed representing the stepwise carcinogenic process from pre-neoplastic lesions (cirrhosis and dysplasia) to HCC, including four neoplastic stages (very early HCC to metastatic tumors) from patients with HCV infection. Gene signatures that accurately reflect the pathological progression of disease at each stage were identified and potential molecular markers for early diagnosis uncovered. Pathway analysis revealed dysregulation of the Notch and Toll-like receptor pathways in cirrhosis, followed by deregulation of several components of the Jak/STAT pathway in early carcinogenesis, then up-regulation of genes involved in DNA replication and repair and cell cycle in late cancerous stages.

Description
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a complex and heterogeneous tumor due to activation of multiple cellular pathways and molecular alterations. Herein, we report the first molecular classification of 89 HCC based on the expression of 358 microRNAs and integrative genomic analysis. Three main subclasses of HCC were identified : two of them were associated with beta-catenin mutations or aggressive phenotype. A subset of the subclass of aggressive tumors (8/89, 9%) showed overexpression of a cluster of microRNAs located on chr19q13.41 (C19MC locus. We showed that miR 517a, representing C19MC, promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and induced the development of aggressive tumors in vivo suggesting its role as a novel oncogenic driver in HCC.

Description
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is ranked second in cancer-associated deaths worldwide. Most cases of HCC are secondary to either a viral hepatitis infection (hepatitis B or C) or cirrhosis (alcoholism being the most common cause of hepatic cirrhosis). It is a complex and heterogeneous tumor due to activation of multiple cellular pathways and molecular alterations.

Description
To characterize the genetic alterations that instigate hepatitis C virus-induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we conducted an integrative genomic analysis of 103 HCCs. Most tumors harbored 1q gain, 8q gain or 8p loss, with occasional alterations in 13 additional chromosome arms. In addition to amplifications at 11q13 in 6 tumors, 4 tumors harbored focal gains at 6p21 incorporating VEGFA, which were confirmed in 4 of 113 HCC in an independent validation set. Strikingly, this locus overlapped with copy gains in 4 of 371 lung adenocarcinomas. Overexpression of VEGFA via 6p21 gain suggested a cell-nonautonomous mechanism of oncogene activation. Hierarchical clustering of gene expression among 91 tumors identified 5 classes, including Wnt-CTNNB1, proliferation and interferon-related gene classes. We also discovered a novel class defined by polysomy of chromosome 7, gains of which were associated with early tumor recurrence after resection. These findings reveal key alterations in HCC pathogenesis and implicate potential therapeutic targets.

Description
In an attempt to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the multiple roles of L1 in endothelium, we checked whether manipulating its expression affected the transcriptome of lECs. To this purpose, we compared the gene expression profiles of L1-overexpressing and control lECs by Affymetrix, which revealed a remarkable effect of L1 overexpression on lECs transcriptome.

Description
In this study we isolated and cultured neural progenitor cells (NPCs) from human fetal brain collected during the gliogenic phase (second trimester) of aborted fetuses, we differentiated NPCs into astrocyte using different protocols (FBS or CNTF/BMP4) and utilized RNA sequencing to analyze transcriptomic changes underlying the differentiation process Overall design: Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) isolated from 4 different donors (91, 103, 110 and 114 days embryos) were differentiated for 1 week using 2.5% FBS, while 3 NPCs lines (two from 103 and one from 110 days embryo) were differentiated for 1 week in the presence of CNTF/BMP4. RNA was extracted from NPCs before and after differentiation and submitted for sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform

A comparative transcriptomic analysis of astrocytes differentiation from human neural progenitor cells.
