Description
These experiments were designed to detect transcript (mRNA) changes in whole circulating blood in animals exposed to D-amphetamine under neurotoxic and non-neurotoxic conditions, or subjected to elevated environmental temperatures that produced a hyperthermia very similar to heat stroke. The study objectives were: 1) to detect transcript changes in blood due to life-threatening hyperthermia produced by elevated environmental temperatures (39°C, produces no or minimal neurotoxicity); 2) detect transcripts that could serve as biomarkers specific for neurotoxic amphetamine exposures and not seen with environmentally-induced hyperthermia; and 3) determine the transcript changes related to the immune system in circulating blood produced by either non-neurotoxic or neurotoxic amphetamine exposures. Amphetamine effects on gene expression are dependent on body temperature and indicate that many significant changes in genes related to the immune system occur, some likely in response to damage, even when animals remain normothermic during amphetamine exposure. Also, hyperthermia alone produces many changes in immune related genes in blood Overall design: Five groups of animals were necessary to meet the study objectives. All groups were given 4 injections of either normal saline or amphetamine, and the injections were sequentially given with 2 h between each injection. Dosing started at 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. The groups are: 1) normothermic controls given normal saline in a 22.5°C environment; 2) controls given normal saline in a 16°C environment (also remained normothermic); 3) environmentally-induced hyperthermia given saline in a 39°C environment; 4) non-neurotoxic amphetamine given in a 16°C environment and 5) neurotoxic amphetamine group given amphetamine in a 22.5°C environment. Note the the saline controls (normothermic data) is contained in a separate but linked GEO file GSE62368

Description
AML1-ETO expression in normal human umbilical cord blood CD34+ cells leads to long-term proliferation of an early self-renewing primitive progenitor cell with multilineage potential and stem cell ability, but these cells do not induce leukemia in immunodeficient mice. This comparative microarray study was initiated to determine the differences in the transcriptome of AML-ETO-expressing CD34+ cells after extended culture in vitro, using normal cord blood cells expanded for 6-8 weeks in vitro and subsequently purified for the CD34+ population as the control comparison.

Description
WNT-induced secreted protein 1 (WISP1/CCN4), a member of the CCN protein family, acts as a downstream factor of the canonical WNT-signaling pathway. A dysregulated expression of WISP1 often reflects its oncogenic potential by inhibition of apoptosis, a necessary form of cell death that protect cell populations for transformation into malignant phenotypes. WISP1-signaling is also known to affect proliferation and differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), which are fundamental for the constitution and maintenance of the musculoskeletal system. Our study emphasizes the importance of WISP1-signaling for cell survival of primary human cells. Therefore, we established a successful down-regulation of endogenous WISP1 transcripts through gene silencing in hMSCs. We were able to demonstrate the consequence of cell death immediately after WISP1 down-regulation took place. Bioinformatical analyses of subsequent performed microarrays from WISP1 down-regulated vs. control samples confirmed this observation. We uncovered several clusters of differential expressed genes important for cellular apoptosis induction and immuno-regulatory processes, thereby indicating TRAIL-induced and p53-mediated apoptosis as well as IFNbeta-signaling. Since all of them act as potent inhibitors for malignant cell growth, in vitro knowledge about the connection with WISP1-signaling could help to find new therapeutic approaches concerning cancerogenesis and tumor growth in musculoskeletal tissues.

Description
In this study we analyzed the myeloma cell contact-mediated changes on the transcriptome of skeletal precursor cells. Therefore, human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and osteogenic precursor cells (OPC) were co-cultured with the representative myeloma cell line INA-6 for 24 h. Afterwards, MSC and OPC were separated from INA-6 cells by fluorescence activated cell sorting. Total RNA of MSC and OPC fractions was used for whole genome array analysis.

Description
Recently, the p53-miR-34a network was identified to play an important role in tumorigenesis. As in acute myeloid leukemia with complex karyotype (CK-AML) TP53 alterations are the most common known molecular lesion, we further analyzed the p53-miR-34a axis in CK-AML with known TP53 status. Clinically, low miR-34a expression and TP53 alterations predicted for chemotherapy resistance and inferior outcome. Notably, in TP53unaltered CK-AML high miR-34a expression predicted for inferior overall survival (OS), whereas in TP53biallelic altered CK-AML high miR-34a expression pointed to better OS.

Description
Purpose: In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) without retinoic acid receptor (RAR) rearrangement the effect of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is still poorly understood despite an association of NPM1 mutation and ATRA response. Recently, PRAME (preferentially expressed antigen in melanoma) has been shown to be a dominant repressor of RAR-signaling. Experimental design: Thus, we further investigated ATRA response mechanisms, especially the impact of PRAME expression on ATRA-responsiveness by profiling gene expression in K562 cell lines. Results: Our data revealed a PRAME-expression associated gene pattern to be significantly enriched for genes involved in the retinoic acid metabolic process. In leukemia cell line models we could demonstrate that retinoic acid-regulated cell proliferation and differentiation are impacted by PRAME expression. Conclusions: PRAME seems to impair differentiation and to increase proliferation likely via blocking RAR-signaling, which might be reversed by ATRA.
