RNA-seq transcriptome analysis identified a functional requirement for zebrafish Rfx4 in the developing neural floor plate and roof plate. Overall design: Embryos derived from an rfx4uw8013/+ incross were sorted by phenotype into mutant and sibling groups. RNA was prepared from each individual embryo at ~ 25 hpf
Zebrafish Rfx4 controls dorsal and ventral midline formation in the neural tube.

View SamplesRNA-seq transcriptome analysis identified an early requirement for zic2 in periocular neural crest as an activator of alx1, a transcription factor with essential roles in craniofacial and ocular morphogenesis in human and zebrafish Overall design: Embryos derived from a zic2aGBT133/+; zic2bUW1127/+ incross were sorted by presence or absence of coloboma. RNA was prepared from each individual embryo at ~ 25 hpf
Zebrafish zic2 controls formation of periocular neural crest and choroid fissure morphogenesis.

View SamplesRecently, we identified mesenchymoangioblast (MAB), as a clonal mesodermal precursor for mesenchymal and endothelial cells. Here we show, that MABs have the capacity to produce mesenchymal progenitors, which can be differentiated into pericytes or smooth muscles cells under the influence of PDGF-BB or TGFß plus sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC), respectively. Based on these studies we established the hierarchy of vasculogenic progenitors that provides the platform for interrogation of molecular mechanisms regulating vasculogenic cell specification and diversification from primitive posterior mesoderm. Overall design: Vasculogenic cells generated under specific culture conditions. Primary cells were used as control.

View SamplesEstablishment of a transcriptomic profile of human cells treated with genistein with particular emphasis on signature of genes coding for enzymes involved in glycosaminoglycan synthesis stands for the present study. The hypothesis tested was that indomethacin and nimesulide influence expression of some genes among which are those coding for enzymes required for synthesis of different GAGs being pathologically accumulated in mucopolysaccharidoses. Results provide important information concerning the extent of action of indomethacin and nimesulide at the molecular level in terms of modulation of gene expression by these substances.

View SamplesPurpose: Despite advances in radical surgery and chemotherapy delivery, ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. Most of these patients are treated with platinum-based chemotherapies, but there is no biomarker model to guide their responses to these therapeutic agents. We have developed and independently tested our novel multivariate molecular predictors for forecasting patients' responses to individual drugs on a cohort of 58 ovarian cancer patients.

View SamplesEstablishment of a transcriptomic profile of human cells treated with genistein with particular emphasis on the assessment of the role of this isoflavone in regulation of expression of psoriasis-related genes stands for the present study. The hypothesis tested was that genistein modulates activity of psoriasis-related genes, by reducing the expression efficiency of genes revealing enhanced activity in psoriatic cells, and by stimulating the expression efficiency of genes revealing decreased activity in psoriatic cells. Results provide important information concerning the extent of action of genistein at the molecular level in terms of modulation of gene expression by this substance.
