Analysis of gene expression changes during mouse salivary gland development using RNA-Seq Overall design: RNA was collected and analyzed for at least two biological replicates each from six developmental timepoints (E14.5, E16.5, E18.5, P5, 4 weeks, 12 weeks)
RNA-seq based transcriptomic map reveals new insights into mouse salivary gland development and maturation.

Here, we performed comprehensive gene expression profiling of cholangiocarcinoma tumors arising from bile duct inoculation of different grade malignant rat cholangiocytes.

View SamplesHuman prolactinomas (n=4, 3 males and 1 female) were obtained during trans-sphenoidal surgery as part of an ongoing accession of human pituitary tumors. The study was approved Institutional Review Board (IRB) of Emory University, and informed consent obtained for all subjects. Tumors were microdissected and removed using the surgical microscope, rinsed in sterile saline, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored (-80 ) until analysis. Each tumor fragment was confirmed independently by a neuropathologist by histology and immunohistochemistry prior to molecular analysis. Three normal pituitary glands from cadavers were obtained from the National Resource Center (NDRI, www.ndriresource.org). Each human tissue sample was analyzed using Affymetrix Human Genome U95Av2 arrays.

View SamplesThese experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that REST and Polycomb Repressor Complex 2 function cooperatively in undifferentiated ESCs. Our results show that H3K27me3-enriched genes show no de-repression in REST-/- ESCs, while REST target genes show significant de-repression. Overall design: RNA-seq was performed and analyzed using two biological replicates for each genotype, WT (N6) and REST-/- (N8) mouse embryonic stem cells.
Polycomb- and REST-associated histone deacetylases are independent pathways toward a mature neuronal phenotype.

View SamplesIn this project we analyze the transcriptome of the human multiple myeloma isogenic cell lines ARP-1 (UTX wild-type) and ARD (UTX null). The transcriptome is studied at baseline, upon restoration of UTX levels in ARD cells for 3 and 6 days, and upon treatment of the cell lines with the EZH2 inhibitor GSK343. Moreover, we analyzed the transcriptome of a ARD resistant cell line that we generated. Overall design: Examination of transcriptome of two cell lines upon restoration of UTX and treatment with EZH2 inhibitors

View SamplesAtypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) is one of the most common brain tumors in infants. Although the prognosis of ATRT patients is poor, some patients respond favorably to current treatments, suggesting molecular inter-tumor heterogeneity. To investigate this further, we genetically and epigenetically analyzed a large series of human ATRTs. Three distinct molecular subgroups of ATRTs, associated with differences in demographics, tumor location, and type of SMARCB1 alterations, were identified. Whole-genome DNA and RNA sequencing found no recurrent mutations in addition to SMARCB1 that would explain the differences between subgroups. Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and H3K27Ac chromatin-immunoprecipitation sequencing of primary tumors, however, revealed clear differences, leading to the identification of subgroup-specific regulatory networks and potential therapeutic targets.
