Tissue-specific Emergence of Regulatory and Intraepithelial T Cells from a Clonal T-cell Precursor
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 18 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HiSeq 2500

Description

We used RNA sequencing to characterize gene expression of CD4+ CD8a+ double positive (DP), Foxp3+ Treg (TR) and CD4+ single positive (SP) cells in the lamina propria (LP) and intraepithelial compartment (IEL) that had differentiante from the same clonal transnuclear (TN) precursor. Overall design: We adoptively transferred CD4+ CD8a- Foxp3-GFP- isolated from pTregTN/RKO/Foxp3-GFP mice into TCRaßKO hosts. After 6 weeks, we sorted transferred CD4+ CD8a+, Foxp3+ pTreg as well as unconverted CD4+ CD8a- Foxp3-GFP- from the small intestine LP and IEL compartments for whole transcriptome analysis by mRNA sequencing.

A novel EMT-selective small molecule induces ER stress
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 6 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)

Description

Carcinoma cells can acquire key malignant traits by reprogramming their differentiation state via an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Cancer cells that undergo EMT become invasive and resist a wide range of therapies including most chemotherapy drugs and radiation. Such cells are also able to efficiently seed primary and metastatic tumors, making them functionally indistinguishable from tumor-initiating or cancer stem-like cells (TICs or CSCs). Therefore, there is significant interest in finding vulnerabilities of cancer cells that have undergone EMT.

Pathways for intervention to optimize donor organ quality uncovered: a genome wide gene expression study
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 554 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HumanHT-12 V4.0 expression beadchip

Description

Background: Strategies to improve long term renal allograft survival have been directed to recipient dependent mechanisms of renal allograft injury. In contrast, no such efforts have been made to optimize organ quality in the donor. In order to get insight into the deleterious gene pathways expressed at different time points during deceased kidney transplantation, transcriptomics was performed on kidney biopsies from a large cohort of deceased kidney transplants.

Avidity Selection of Natural Killer Response to MCMV
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 8 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HiSeq 4000

Description

Natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphocytes that possess features of adaptive immunity, such as the ability to recognize specific antigen, among others. In MCMV infection, the engagement of a subset of NK cells expressing an activating receptor Ly49H with MCMV-derived glycoprotein m157 results in a clonal-like expansion and the generation of a small pool of long-lived memory cells with higher Ly49H expression than the naive Ly49H-expressing NK cell pool. In this study, we interrogate the transcriptional differences between NK cells that express high verus low levels of Ly49H early after infection. Overall design: RNASeq was performed on Ly49Hhi and Ly49Hlow NK cells harvested after 1.5 days post in vivo infection; 4 replicates per group and 50,000 cells per replicate.

Large-scale expansion of human iPSC-derived skeletal muscle cells for disease modeling and cell-based therapeutic strategies
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 8 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HiSeq 2500

Description

Although skeletal muscle cells can be generated from human iPSCs, transgene-free protocols include only limited options for their purification and expansion. In this study we found that FACS-purified myogenic progenitors generated from healthy controls and Pompe disease iPSCs can be robustly expanded as much as 5 x 1011 fold. At all steps during expansion, cells could be cryopreserved or differentiated into myotubes with a high fusion index. In vitro, cells were amenable to maturation into striated and contractile myofibers. Insertion of the acid alpha glucosidase cDNA into the AAVS1 locus in iPSCs using CRISPR/cas9 prevented glycogen accumulation in myotubes generated from a patient with classic infantile Pompe disease. In vivo, the expression of human-specific nuclear and sarcolemmar antigens indicated that myogenic progenitors engraft into murine muscle to form human myofibers. This protocol is useful for modeling of skeletal muscle disorders and for using patient-derived, gene-corrected cells to develop cell-based strategies. Overall design: Myogenic progenitors were expanded for ~15 days and harvested either in proliferation conditions or after 4 days of differentiation as described previously (van der Wal et al., 2017b). RNA was extracted using the RNeasy minikit with DNAse treatment (Qiagen, Germantown, MD). Sequencing libraries were prepared using TruSeq Stranded mRNA Library Prep Kit (Illumina, San Diego, California, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Libraries were sequenced on a HiSeq2500 sequencer (Illumina, San Diego, California, USA) in rapid-run mode according to the manufacturer's instructions. Reads 50 base-pairs in length were generated. The RNA-sequencing datasets listed in table S3 were downloaded and aligned with the datasets generated in this study using the 'new Tuxedo' pipeline (Pertea et al., 2016). The processed data file includes the analysis of 30 additonal Samples from other research groups, partly from GEO and partly from other sources such as ENCODE and ENA. The header table linked below lists the origin of the other Samples.

Glucocorticoid-regulated microRNAs and mirtrons in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 11 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)

Description

Glucocorticoids (GC) have a major impact on the biology of normal and malignant cells of the lymphoid lineage. This includes induction of apoptosis which is exploited in the therapy of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and related lymphoid malignancies. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and the related mirtrons are ~22 nucleotide RNA molecules implicated in the control of essential biological functions including proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. They derive from polymerase-II transcripts but whether GCs regulate miRNA-encoding transcription units is not known. We investigated miRNA/mirtron expression and GC regulation in 8 ALL in vitro models and 13 ALL children undergoing systemic GC monotherapy using a combination of expression profiling techniques, real time RT-PCR and northern blotting to detect mature miRNAs and/or their precursors. We identified a number of GC-regulated miRNAs/mirtrons, including the myeloid-specific miR-223 and the apoptosis and cell cycle arrest-inducing mir15~16 cluster. Thus, the observed complex changes in miRNA/mirtron expression during GC treatment might contribute to the anti-leukemic GC effects in a cell context dependent manner.

Gene expression during Arabidopsis flower maturation
  • organism-icon Arabidopsis thaliana
  • sample-icon 18 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)

Description

Flower maturation consists of several events that contribute to reproductive success as flowers open, including petal expansion, stamen filament elongation, pollen release, nectary maturation, stigma growth, and gynoecium maturation to support pollen tube growth. The Arabidopsis transcription factors ARF6 (Auxin Response Factor 6) and ARF8 regulate all of these processes, in part by activating jasmonate biosynthesis. Jasmonates in turn activate genes encoding the transcription factors MYB21 and MYB24, which mediate a subset of the processes controlled by ARF6 and ARF8. This experiment was designed to characterize gene expression in flowers before and after they open, and to determine how arf6 arf8 and myb21 myb24 mutation combinations affect these gene expression patterns.

Auxin Response Factor mediated flower gene expression
  • organism-icon Arabidopsis thaliana
  • sample-icon 12 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)

Description

The aim of this study was to examine the contribution of ARF6 and ARF8 to flower gene expression. Flowers from arf6 arf8 plants undergo a developmental arrest at approximately stage 12, just prior to flower opening. Flowers from wild-type, ARF6/arf6 arf8/arf8, and arf6 arf8 plants were separated into stage 1-10 flowers, stage 11+12 flowers, and stage 13-14 flowers to define the developmental stages at which ARF6 and ARF8 are required for gene expression.

Integrated bioinformatic and wet-lab approach to identify potential oncogenic networks in neuroblastoma
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 86 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)

Description

mRNA profiles of thousands of human tumors are available, but methods to deduce oncogenic signaling networks from these data lag behind. It is especially challenging to identify main-regulatory routes, and to generalize conclusions obtained from experimental models. We designed the bioinformatic platform R2 in parallel with a wet-lab approach of neuroblastoma. Here we demonstrate how R2 facilitates an integrated analysis of our neuroblastoma data. Analysis of the MYCN pathway suggested important regulatory connections to the polyamine synthesis route, the Notch pathway and the BMP/TGF pathway. A network of genes emerged connecting major oncogenes in neuroblastoma. Genes in the network carried strong prognostic values and were essential for tumor cell survival.
