Affymetrix C. elegans Genome Array (celegans)
Description
N2 young adult animals were analyzed four hours after exposure to wild-type Candida albicans DAY185, heat-killed C. albicans DAY185 and heat-killed Escherichia coli OP50, all on Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar. It was necessary to use heat-killed E. coli OP50 as a control for these experiments because live E. coli OP50 (the normal nematode food source) is pathogenic to nematodes on BHI agar. These data identify the C. elegans genes that are differentially regulated during nematode infection with a human fungal pathogen.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The first site exhibiting hematopoietic activity in mammalian development is the yolk sac blood island, which originates from the hemangioblast. Here we performed differentiation assays, as well as genome-wide molecular and functional studies in BL-CFCs to gain insight into the function of the essential Ldb1 factor in early primitive hematopoietic development. We show that the previously reported lack of yolk sac hematopoiesis and vascular development in Ldb1-/- mouse result from a decreased number of hemangioblasts and a block in their ability to differentiate into erythroid and endothelial progenitor cells. Transcriptome analysis and correlation with the genome wide binding pattern of Ldb1 in hemangioblasts revealed a number of direct target genes and pathways misregulated in the absence of Ldb1. The regulation of essential developmental factors by Ldb1 defines it as an upstream transcriptional regulator of hematopoietic/endothelial development. We show the complex interplay that exists between transcription factors and signaling pathways during the very early stages of hematopoietic/endothelial development and the specific signalling occurring in hemangioblasts in contrast to more advanced hematopoietic developmental stages. Finally, by revealing novel genes and pathways, not previously associated with early development, our study provides novel candidate targets to manipulate the differentiation of hematopoietic and/or endothelial cells.

Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Purpose: Unlike in most adult-onset cancers, an association between typical paediatric neoplasms and inflammatory triggers is rare. We studied whether immune system related genes are activated and have prognostic significance in Ewing sarcoma family of tumours (ESFT). Experimental design: Data-analysis was performed on gene expression profiles of 44 ESFT patient, 11 ESFT cell line, and 18 normal muscle tissue samples. 238 inflammation related genes were selected based on literature and a macrophage gene expression signature was derived from SymAtlas. Differential expression of the genes was analysed by t-test and survival analysis was performed according to gene expression.

Description
Expression profiles of Drosophila melanogaster in response to ionizing radiation, formaldehyde, toluene, and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin. Overall design: RNA-seq analysis on 25,415 transcripts to measure the change in gene expression in males and females separately. An analysis of the genes unique to each treatment yielded a list of genes as a gene expression signature. In the case of radiation exposure, both sexes exhibited a reproducible increase in their expression of the transcription factors sugarbabe and tramtrack.

- Affymetrix Rhesus Macaque Genome Array (rhesus)
Description
CD8+ T-cells inhibit virus replication in SIV-infected rhesus macaques (RM). However, it is not clear how SIV infection is controlled in germinal center during chronic SIV infection and limited information exists on the characteristics of CXCR5+ CD8 T cells during chronic SIV/HIV infection. In this study, we used functional genomics to investigate characteristic features and potential mechanisms of CXCR5+ and CXCR5- SIV specific CD8 T cells for the control of pathogenic SIV infection. Six chronically SIV infected RMs, three SIVE660 infected and three SIV mac251 infected that are positive for Mamu A01 allele were selected and SIV-specific CXCR5+ and CXCR5- CD8 T cells were sorted based on CXCR5 expression. RNA from sorted cells were extracted and microarray were performed and analysed. Principal component analysis demonstrated that overall gene expression difference between CXCR5+ and CXCR5- SIV-specific CD8 T cells. Interestingly, the CXCR5+ CD8 T cells revealed a distinct gene signature pattern when compared to CXCR5- CD8 T cells. Unlike the CXCR5- CD8 T cells, the CXCR5+ CD8 T cells expressed higher levels of genes associated with Tfh CD4 T cells such as the master transcription factor Bcl6, CD200, and CTLA4 as well as markers associated with Th2 CD4 T cells such as IL-4R (CD124), CCR4, STAT6, NFATC, and IL-10. Effector molecules typically observed in cytotoxic CD8 T cells such as granzyme A, B, and K were expressed at lower levels on CXCR5+ CD8 T cells compared to their CXCR5- counterparts. CXCR5+ CD8 T cells also expressed higher levels of molecules associated with co-stimulation/antigen presentation such as CD40, CD83, 41BBL and MAMU-DRA. The CXCR5+ CD8 also expressed higher levels of inhibitory receptors such as CD200 and SPRY2 but lower levels of other inhibitory receptors CD160 and CD244. The functional consequence of the expression of these molecules is yet to be determined. Additionally, CXCR5+ CD8 T cells expressed higher levels of the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2 and lower levels of the pro-apoptotic gene annexin, suggestive of their better survival potential during chronic SIV infection. Collectively, these results demonstrate that SIV specific CXCR5+ CD8 T cells possess a unique gene expression signature compared to SIV-specific CXCR5- CD8 T cells.
