Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Weve undertaken a genome-wide approach to identify and test genes in fibroblasts that are both induced upon interaction with basal breast cancer cells in culture and upregulated in stromal cells from primary human breast cancers. Several of the upregulated genes encode secreted growth factors or cytokines. Using RNAi and a co-injection tumorigenicity assay, we determined that the majority of secreted factors selected for functional validation played significant, yet functionally diverse, roles in promoting tumorigenicity. Rather than a single major mediator, these results indicate multiple points of intervention to prevent fibroblasts from supporting basal breast cancer. Additionally, we show that breast cancer subtypes differ markedly in the expression of these and other stromally secreted proteins using data from microdissected stromal samples.

Description
HCT116 cells were transfected with two different siRNA's targeting either DDX5, an siRNA targeting EBNA1, or no siRNA (mock). The siRNA targeting EBNA1 is used as a negative control since HCT116 cells do not have the EBNA1 gene. RNA was obtained from cultures at 24hrs post-siRNA transfection using the Qiagen RNeasy Minikit (cat. # 74104) with on-column DNase digestion performed as per the manufacturer's protocol. The RNA samples were isolated at 24hrs post-siRNA transfection since this timepoint precedes an impaired G1-to-S phase cell cycle progression phenotype that is evident at 48hrs post-siRNA transfection and so may reveal gene expression changes occuring before this effect on cell cycle. RNA samples were submitted to the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Microarray Faciity where cDNA was prepared, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays. Data from the arrays were processed using the RMA method with an up-to-data probe set definition (Biostatistics 4:249-264 and Nucleic Acids Research 33(20):e175. Gene set analysis was performed using generally applicable gene set enrichment (BMC Bioinformatics 10:161). The most differentially regulated gene ontology groups were selected with FDR q-value < 0.1.

Description
The inner ear continues to grow and develop until the auditory and vestibular systems reach full maturity and all of the genes involved in this process have yet to be identified. Previous gene based analysis have primarily focused on the early developmental stages following induction and initial formation of the inner ear. The aim of this study is to identify new candidate genes for inner ear development. Microarrays were used to produce expression profiles from larval stages 56,57,58 of the Xenopus laevis inner ear. The data produced from this work represent an annotated resource that can be utilized by the Xenopus community to provide candidates for further functional analysis.

Description
The objective of the overall study was to determine the effects of oral vitamin D supplementation on alveolar macrophages from human subjects. In this substudy, subjects treated with vitamin D (intervention group) in paired analysis had small, but significant effects on immune-related differential gene expression pre versus post supplementation.

Description
Microarray analysis has been applied to the cell proliferation in a human colonic cel line, Caco-2. We have shown previously that a moderate riboflavin depletion around weaning has a profound impact on the structure and function of the small intestine of the rat, which is not reversible following riboflavin repletion. In this study we have modelled riboflavin deficiency in a human cell line, shown irreversible loss of cell viability associated with impaired mitosis and identified candidate effectors of riboflavin depletion in the cell.

Description
Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of emphysema in the United States. Alveolar macrophages play a critical role in the inflammation-mediated remodeling of the lung parenchyma in emphysema. However, the exact gene pathways and the role of DNA methylation in moderating this pathological transformation are not known. In order to more exactly understand this process, we compared genome-wide expression and methylation signatures of alveolar macrophages isolated from heavy smokers with those isolated from non-smoking controls. We found enrichment of differential methylation in genes from immune system and inflammatory pathways as determined by standard pathway analysis. Consistent with recent findings, significant methylation changes were particularly enriched in the areas flanking CpG islands (CpG shores). Analysis of matching gene expression data demonstrated a parallel enrichment for changes in immune system and inflammatory pathways. We conclude that alveolar macrophages from the lungs of smokers demonstrate coordinated changes in DNA methylation and gene expression that link to inflammation pathways. We suggest that further studies of DNA methylation in immune and inflammation-related gene expression are needed to understand the pathogenesis of emphysema and other smoking-related diseases.

Description
Alveolar macrophages from never smokers and active smokers were isolated by bronchoalveolar lavage and gene expression was measured. Chronic cigarette smoke exposure, as occurs in smoker's lungs, leads to significant changes in gene expression. Of note, RNA was isolated immediately following bronchoscopy. Alveolar macrophage levels were >95%.
