View SamplesReinstatement of DLX3 into SCC13 cells upregulates genes involved with cell cycle exit, signaling, and adhesion whiles downregulates genes involved with cell death, proliferation, and movement. Overall design: We used RNA-sequencing data analysis to assess gene expression in SCC13 cells infected with Adeno-GFP or Adeno-DLX3 in order to understand the effects of DLX3 in a Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cell Line. We identified a specific subset of genes involved in regulation of cell cycle arrest and inhibition of apoptosis.

View SamplesNeutrophil lysis after phagocytosis is a process potentially important in the pathogenesis of community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) infection. The mechanism for this process is not currently known. Therefore, to better understand CA-MRSA virulence we used human oligonucleotide microarrays to investigate the mechanism underlying enhanced PMN lysis that occurs after phagocytosis of CA-MRSA.

View SamplesThe epidemic character of community-associated methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA), especially the geographically widespread clone USA300, is poorly understood. USA300 isolates carry a type IV staphylococcal chromosomal cassette mec (SCCmec) element conferring -lactam antibiotic class resistance and a putative pathogenicity island, ACME (arginine catabolic mobile element).

View SamplesDuring sexual dimorphism, the loss of one entire X chromosome in Drosophila males is achieved largely via a broad genome-wide aneuploid effect. Exploring how MSL proteins and two large non coding RNAs (roX1 and roX2) modulate trans-acting aneuploid effect for equality to females, we employ a system biology approach (microarray) to investigate the global aneuploid effect of maleless(mle) mutation by disrupting MSL binding. A large number of the genes (144) that encode a broad spectrum of cellular transport proteins and transcription factors are located in the autosomes of Drosophila melanogaster.

View SamplesNeutrophils are short-lived innate immune cells. Upon encountering appropriate stimuli, neutrophils generate and release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), primarily via NADPH oxidase (Nox)-dependent (~2 hours) or Nox-independent NETosis (~15-60 minutes). Ironically, DNA transcription in dying neutrophils remains an enigma. We hypothesized that transcriptional activation, regulated by NETosis-specific kinases, is important to drive the chromatin decondensation necessary for NETosis. For the first time, we show here that (i) the degree of NETosis corresponds to the degree of genome-wide transcription; (ii) kinase-specific transcriptional activation reflects transcriptional firing during different types of NETosis; and (iii) Transcriptomics suggests that NETosis could differentially regulate inflammation. Therefore, we propose that the initial steps of transcriptional firing, but neither transcription per se help to drive NETosis.
Transcriptional firing helps to drive NETosis.

The hypothesis tested in the present study was that LXRa overexpression influence cancer growth modulating lipid metabolism in cancer cells. Results provide the information that LXRa induces genes encoding proteins able to regulate cholesterol efflux.
