Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) outwardly appear to be indistinguishable from embryonic stem cells (ESCs). A study of gene expression profiles of mouse and human ESCs and iPSCs suggests that, while iPSCs are quite similar to their embryonic counterparts, a recurrent gene expression signature appears in iPSCs regardless of their origin or the method by which they were generated. Upon extended culture, hiPSCs adopt a gene expression profile more similar to hESCs; however, they still retain a gene expression signature unique from hESCs that extends to miRNA expression. Genome-wide data suggested that the iPSC signature gene expression differences are due to differential promoter binding by the reprogramming factors. High-resolution array profiling demonstrated that there is no common specific subkaryotypic alteration that is required for reprogramming and that reprogramming does not lead to genomic instability. Together, these data suggest that iPSCs should be considered a unique subtype of pluripotent cell.

Description
Transgenic rice plants expressing isopentenyltransferase (IPT), an enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limiting step in CK synthesis under the control of SARK, a maturation- and stress-inducible promoter. Increased CK production resulted in sink source alteration and enhanced drought tolerance of the transgenic plants.

- Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
We generated single and double knockouts of AtNHX5 and AtNHX6 in order to invesigate possible functions in Arabidopsis. nhx5/nhx6 exhibited severe growth retardation related to cell size and proliferation, as well as endosomal trafficking perutrbations. The results implicate endosomal NHX antiporters in novel cellular functions. In order to investigate further the possible functions of AtNHX5 and AtNHX6, we compared the transcrptional profiles of single and double AtNHX5 and AtNHX6 knockouts. We looked for changes in gene expression might help us to elucidate the molecular events associated with the apparent requirement of AtNHX5 and AtNHX6 for normal growth and development.
Publication Title

Description
Recent reports of directed reprogramming have raised questions about the stability of cell lineages. Here, we have addressed this issue, focusing upon skin-derived precursors (SKPs), a dermally-derived precursor cell. We show by lineage tracing that murine SKPs from dorsal skin originate from mesenchymal and not neural crest-derived cells. These mesenchymally-derived SKPs can, without genetic manipulation, generate functional Schwann cells, a neural crest cell type, and are highly similar at the transcriptional level to Schwann cells isolated from the peripheral nerve. This is not a mouse-specific phenomenon, since human SKPs that are highly similar at the transcriptome level can be made from facial (neural crest-derived) and foreskin (mesodermally-derived) dermis, and the mesodermally-derived SKPs can make myelinating Schwann cells. Thus, non-neural crest-derived mesenchymal precursors can differentiate into bona fide peripheral glia in the absence of genetic manipulation, suggesting that developmentally-defined lineage boundaries are more flexible than widely thought.

Description
The production of Tobacco Acid Pyrophosphatase (TAP), an enzyme commonly used for the removal of the 5’cap of eukaryotic mRNAs, has been recently discontinued. Here we performed a comparison of current alternatives for the mapping of 5’cap mRNAs and the associated transcription start sites in Sacharomyces cerevisiae. Specifically we compared TAP with Cap-clip and a Decapping Pyrophosphohydrolase. Our results suggest that Cap-clip is a good alternative for TAP. Overall design: We used two biological replicates of S. cerevisiae that was grown to exponential phase (OD600 ~1) in rich media (YPAD). Samples where processed until the dephosphorylation step (CIP treatment). After that each sample was split in 4 aliquots: TAP treatment, Cap-Clip treatment, Decapping Pyrophosphohydrolase treatment or no treatment (negative control). From that step all samples are processed in parallel.

Description
The role of androgen in breast cancer development is not fully understood although androgen receptors (AR) have been identified in breast cancer clinical samples and cell lines. However the whole spectra of androgen actions cannot be accounted to the classic AR mode of action and the possible existence of a cell surface AR has been suggested. Indeed androgens like all steroids have been reported to trigger membrane initiated signaling activity and exert specific actions. Androgens acting on the membrane can rapidly activate kinase signaling pathways and ultimately could affect gene expression. However, the molecular nature of membrane androgen binding sites represents another major persisting question. In the present study, we investigated early transcriptional effects of testosterone and the impermeable testosterone-BSA conjugate, in two breast cancer cell lines, in an attempt to decipher specific genes modified in each case, providing evidences about specific membrane initiating actions. Our data indicate that the two agents tested affect the expression of several genes. A group of genes were commonly affected while others were uniquely modified by each agent. In MDA-MB-231 cells, that are AR negative, the majority of genes affected by testosterone were also affected by testosterone-BSA indicating a membrane action. Subsequent analysis revealed that the two agents trigger different molecular pathways and cellular/molecular functions, suggestive of a molecular heterogeneity of membrane and intracellular AR. In addition, the phenotypic interactions of membrane-acting androgen with growth factor were verified at the transcriptomic level. Finally an interesting interplay between membrane-acting androgen with inflammation-related molecules, with potential clinical implications was revealed.

Description
Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF, fibroblast growth factor-7) is a fibroblast-derived mitogen, which stimulates proliferation of epithelial cells. The expression of KGF by dermal fibroblasts is induced following injury and it promotes wound repair. However, the role of KGF in cutaneous carcinogenesis and cancer progression is not known. We have examined the role of KGF in progression of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the skin.
