- Affymetrix Human Transcriptome Array 2.0 (hta20)
Description
To elucidate the mode of action of apratyramide, we performed microarray profiling using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Transcriptome Array 2.0 to determine global changes in transcript levels in HaCaT cells treated with apratyramide. Comparativel analysis identified 371 differentially expressed genes after 12 h treatment with 30 M apratyramide (p < 0.05, FDR corrected, fold change >1.5 or <0.67). Consistent with our previous data, VEGF-A appeared to be one of the most up-regulated genes. To examine the molecular functions and genetic networks, the microarray data was analyzed using Ingenuity Pathways Aanalysis (IPA).The global changes of transcript levels are associated with increased downstream phenotypic effects including angiogenesis, mitogenesis, differentiation of epithelial tissue and formation of skin, and decreased effects such as apoptosis of liver cells and hypoplasia of organs. IPA analysis of 371 microarray hits indicated the unfolded protein response (UPR) as the top canonical pathway with a p-value of 1.45 10-16. The IPA also elucidated that the 371 hits were most related to a molecular network associated with the function of cellular compromise and cellular maintenance. The network contains molecular components from UPR pathway, NRF2-mediated oxidative stress response signaling as well as glucocorticoid receptor signaling.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Microarray profiling using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 plus 2.0 arrays was performed to comprehensively determine global changes in transcript levels in bronchial epithelial cells following elastase treatment. Elastase caused a significant change in expression (P < 0.05, fold change 1.5) of 364 transcripts corresponding to 348 genes. Elastase affected the expression of signaling molecules including chemokines, cytokines, and receptors, as well as components of the spliceosome, transcription machinery, cell cycle and ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis.

Description
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate gene expression. Inhibition of class I HDACs has been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth. Largazole, a new potent HDAC inhibitor, shows strong antitumor activity, presumably by modulating transcription of cancer relevant genes.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U219 Array (hgu219)
Description
Extracellular nucleotides are potent signaling molecules mediating cell-specific biological functions. We previously demonstrated that adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) inhibits the proliferation while stimulating the migration, in vitro and in vivo, of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-hMSC). Here, we investigated the effects of ATP on BM-hMSC differentiation capacity.

Description
In the present study, we investigated whether, and to what extent, P2Rs and their ligands are involved in the regulation of AML cells. Our findings show that AML blasts express several receptors belonging to the P2X and P2Y family. Although different samples respond differently to ATP and UTP stimulation (reflecting the variability intrinsic to the group of acute myeloid leukemias), all the tested samples appear to be responsive to purinergic signalling, as demonstrated by intracellular calcium mobilization.

Purinergic signaling inhibits human acute myeloblastic leukemia cell proliferation, migration, and engraftment in immunodeficient mice.

Description
We show the molecular and functional characterization of a novel population of lineage-negative CD34-negative (Lin- CD34-) hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients at diagnosis. Molecular caryotyping and quantitative analysis of BCR/ABL transcript demonstrated that about one third of CD34- was leukemic. CML CD34- cells showed kinetic quiescence and limited clonogenic capacity. However, stroma-dependent cultures and cytokines induced CD34 expression on some HSCs, cell cycling, acquisition of clonogenic activity and increased expression of BCR/ABL transcript. CML CD34- cells showed an engraftment rate in immunodeficient mice similar to that of CD34+ cells. Gene expression profiling revealed the down-regulation of cell cycle arrest genes together with genes involved in antigen presentation and processing, while the expression of angiogenic factors was strongly up-regulated when compared to normal counterparts. Flow cytometry analysis confirmed the significant down-regulation of HLA class I and II molecules in CML CD34-cells. Increasing doses of imatinib mesilate (IM) did not affect fusion transcript levels, BCR-ABL kinase activity and the clonogenic efficiency of CML CD34- cells as compared to leukemic CD34+cells.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
In mammals, totipotent pre-implantation embryos are formed by fusion of highly differentiated oocytes and spermatozoa. Acquisition of totipotency concurs with remodeling of chromatin states of parental genomes (epigenetic reprogramming), changes in maternally contributed transcriptome and proteome, and zygotic genome activation. Genomes of mature germ cells are more proficient in supporting embryonic development than those of somatic cells. It is currently unknown whether transgenerational inheritance of chromatin states present in mature gametes underlies the efficacy of early embryonic development after natural conception. Here, we show that Ring1 and Rnf2, two core components of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), serve redundant gene regulatory functions during oogenesis that are required to support embryonic development beyond the two-cell stage. Numerous developmental regulatory genes that are established Polycomb targets in various somatic cell types are de-repressed in Ring1/Rnf2 double mutant (dm) fully grown germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes. Translation of tested aberrant maternal transcripts is, however, delayed until after fertilization. Exchange of maternal pro-nuclei between control and Ring1/Rnf2 maternally dm early zygotes demonstrates an essential role for Ring1 and Rnf2 during oogenesis in defining cytoplasmic and nuclear maternal contributions that are both essential for proper initiation of embryonic development. A large number of genes up-regulated in Ring1/Rnf2 dm GV oocytes harbor PRC2-mediated histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in spermatozoa and in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), and are repressed during normal oogenesis and early embryogenesis. These data strongly support the model that Polycomb acts in the female and male germline to silence differentiation inducing genes and to program chromatin states, thereby sustaining developmental potential across generations.
