Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [transcript (gene) version (huex10st)
Description
D122p53 mice (a model of D133p53 isoform) are tumour prone, have extensive inflammation and elevated serum IL-6. To investigate the role of IL-6 we crossed 122p53 mice with IL-6 deficient mice. Here we show that loss of IL-6 reduced JAK-STAT signalling, tumour incidence, and metastasis. We also show that D122p53 activates RhoA-ROCK signalling leading to tumour cell invasion which is IL-6 dependent and can be reduced by inhibition of JAK-STAT and RhoA-ROCK pathways. Similarly, we show that 133p53 activates the these pathways, resulting in invasive and migratory phenotypes, in colorectal cancer cells. Gene expression analysis of colorectal tumours showed enrichment of GPCR signalling associated with D133TP53 mRNA. Patients with elevated D133TP53 mRNA levels had a shorter disease free survival. Our results suggest that D133p53 promotes tumour invasion by activation of the JAK-STAT and RhoA-ROCK pathways and that patients whose tumours have high D133p53 may benefit from therapies targeting these pathways.

Description
Individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) experience elevated inflammation in multiple organs, but whether this reflects an inherent feature of CF cells or is a consequence of a pro-inflammatory environment is not clear. Using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis of CFTR, 17 subclonal cell lines were generated from Caco-2 cells. Clonal lines with functional CFTR (CFTR+) were compared to those without (CFTR-) to directly address the role of CFTR in inflammatory gene regulation. All lines maintained CFTR mRNA production and formation of tight junctions. CFTR+ lines displayed short circuit currents in response to forskolin, while the CFTR- lines did not. Baseline expression of both cytokines was not different between the lines regardless of CFTR genotype. All lines responded to TNFa and IL1b by increasing IL6 and CXCL8 (IL8) mRNA levels, but the CFTR- lines produced more CXCL8 mRNA than the CFTR+ lines. Transcriptomes of 6 CFTR- and 6 CFTR+ lines, before and after stimulation by TNFa, were compared for differential expression as a function of CFTR genotype. While some genes appeared to be differentially expressed simply because of CFTR's absence, others required stimulation for differences to be apparent. Together, these data suggest cells respond to CFTR's absence by modulating transcriptional networks, some of which are only apparent when cells are exposed to different environmental contexts, such as inflammation. With regards to inflammation, these data suggest a model in which CFTR's absence leads to a poised, pro-inflammatory state of cells that is only revealed by stimulation. Overall design: Compare cells with intact CFTR to cells lacking CFTR for overall gene expression under basal and TNFa-stimulated conditions

Description
To analyze the functional relevance of LSD1 in neuroblastic tumors, SH-SY5Y cells were transiently transfected with siRNA directed against LSD1 or with a scrambled control siRNA. Microarray analysis revealed changes in expression that were consistent with these observations 72 hours after LSD1 knock-down. At this time, 28 genes were significantly induced at least 1.5-fold and 29 genes were significantly repressed at least 1.5-fold. Among the 28 induced genes, 4 are markers of cytoskeletal remodelling (TNS1, TPM1, DNM2, DNAL4), indicating differentiation, and 3 (TPM1, DNM2 and SHANK2) are functionally linked to neurite dynamics and synaptic trafficking. TaqMan quantitative RT-PCR confirmed the expression changes detected via microarray analysis for LSD1, DNAL4, DNM2, TNS1 and TPM1
