Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx
Description
We profiled and quantitated miRNAs in two skin tumors (Basal cell carcinoma and Merkel cell carcinoma) and identified tumor-specific miRNAs. We used these tumor-specific miRNAs to guide development of miRNA fluorescence in situ hybridization. Overall design: 2 barcoded sequencing runs, including 40 unique samples (36 used in manuscript). The details of each sample can be found in Supplementary Tables S1 and S2.

Description
c-MYC (MYC) overexpression or hyperactivation is one of the most common drivers of human cancer. Despite intensive study, the MYC oncogene remains recalcitrant to therapeutic inhibition. Like other classic oncogenes, hyperactivation of MYC leads to collateral stresses onto cancer cells, suggesting that tumors harbor unique vulnerabilities arising from oncogenic activation of MYC. Herein, we discover the spliceosome as a new target of oncogenic stress in MYC-driven cancers. We identify BUD31 as a MYC-synthetic lethal gene, and demonstrate that BUD31 is a splicing factor required for the assembly and catalytic activity of the spliceosome. Core spliceosomal factors (SF3B1, U2AF1, and others) associate with BUD31 and are also required to tolerate oncogenic MYC. Notably, MYC hyperactivation induces an increase in total pre-mRNA synthesis, suggesting an increased burden on the core spliceosome to process pre-mRNA. In contrast to normal cells, partial inhibition of the spliceosome in MYC-hyperactivated cells leads to global intron retention, widespread defects in pre-mRNA maturation, and deregulation of many essential cell processes. Importantly, genetic or pharmacologic inhibition of the spliceosome in vivo impairs survival, tumorigenicity, and metastatic proclivity of MYC-dependent breast cancers. Collectively, these data suggest that oncogenic MYC confers a collateral stress on splicing and that components of the spliceosome may be therapeutic entry points for aggressive MYC-driven cancers. Overall design: Examination of intron rentention in MYC-ER HMECs, in 4 conditions

Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Mitochondria are centers of metabolism and signaling whose content and function must adapt to changing cellular environments. The biological signals that initiate mitochondrial restructuring and the cellular processes that drive this adaptive response are largely obscure. To better define these systems, we performed matched quantitative genomic and proteomic analyses of mouse muscle cells as they performed mitochondrial biogenesis. We find that proteins involved in cellular iron homeostasis are highly coordinated with this process, and that depletion of cellular iron results in a rapid, dose-dependent decrease of select mitochondrial protein levels and oxidative capacity. We further show that this process is universal across a broad range of cell types and fully reversed when iron is reintroduced. Collectively, our work reveals that cellular iron is a key regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, and provides quantitative datasets that can be leveraged to explore post-transcriptional and post-translational processes that are essential for mitochondrial adaptation.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
The therapeutic potential of pro-resolution factors in determining the outcome of inflammatory events has gained ground over the past decade. However, the attention has been focused on the non-genomic effects of these endogenous, anti-inflammatory substances. In this study, we have focused our attention on identifying specific annexin 1 (AnxA1) protein/ALX receptor mediated gene activation, in an effort to identify down-stream genomic targets of this well-known, glucocorticoid induced, pro-resolution factor.
Publication Title
Downstream gene activation of the receptor ALX by the agonist annexin A1.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Malignant melanoma is a complex genetic disease and the most aggressive form of skin cancer. Melanoma progression and metastatic dissemination fundamentally relies on the process of angiogenesis. Melanomas produce an array of angiogenic modulators that mediate pathological angiogenesis. Such tumor-associated modulators arbitrate the enhanced proliferative, survival and migratory responses exhibited by endothelial cells, in the hypoxic tumor environment. The current study focuses on melanoma-induced survival of endothelial cells under hypoxic conditions. Melanoma conditioned media were capable of enabling prolonged endothelial cell survival under hypoxia, in contrast with the conditioned media derived from melanocytes, breast and pancreatic tumors. To identify the global changes in gene expression and further characterize the pro-survival pathway induced in endothelial cells, we performed microarray analysis on endothelial cells treated with melanoma conditioned medium under normoxic and hypoxic conditions.

- Affymetrix Rat Gene 2.0 ST Array (ragene20st)
Description
Complement inhibitor C4b-binding protein (C4BP) is synthesized in liver and pancreas and composed of 7 identical alpha chains and one unique beta chain. We showed previously that C4BP binds islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) and affects fibril formation in vitro. Now we found that polymeric C4BP inhibited lysis of human erythrocytes incubated with monomeric IAPP while no erythrocyte lysis was observed after incubation with preformed IAPP fibrils. In contrast, monomeric alpha chain of C4BP had significantly reduced activity. Further, addition of monomeric IAPP to a rat insulinoma cell line (INS-1) resulted in decreased cell viability, which was restored in the presence of physiological concentrations of C4BP. Accordingly, addition of C4BP rescued the ability of INS-1 cells and isolated rat islets to respond to glucose stimulation with insulin secretion, which was impaired in the presence of IAPP alone. C4BP was internalized together with IAPP into INS-1 cells and therefore we aimed to study its effect on gene expression. Pathway analyses of mRNA expression microarray data indicated that cells exposed to C4BP and IAPP in comparison to IAPP alone increased expression of genes involved in cholesterol synthesis. Depletion of cholesterol through methyl--cyclodextrin or cholesterol oxidase abolished the protective effect of C4BP on IAPP cytotoxicity of INS-1 cells. Also, inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinase but not NF-B had a similar effect. Taken together, one of the mechanisms by which C4BP protects beta-cells from IAPP cytotoxicity is by enhancing cholesterol synthesis.

Description
In the present investigation, we have exploited the opportunity provided by neoadjuvant treatment of a group of postmenopausal women with large operable or locally advanced breast cancer (in which therapy is given with the primary tumour remaining within the breast) to take sequential biopsies of the same cancers before and after 10-14 days treatment with letrozole. RNA extracted from the biopsies has been subjected to Affymetrix microarray analysis and the data from paired biopsies interrogated to discover genes whose expression is most influenced by oestrogen deprivation.
