Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
We have demonstrated that water-soluble zinc ionophores can be administered to mice at relatively high doses and inhibit the growth of A549 lung cancer cells grown in xenograft models. Gene expression profiles of tumor specimens harvested from mice four hours after treatment confirmed that the activation of stress responsive genes occurs in vivo. These findings lead us to propose that the pharmacologic delivery of zinc to tumors using water solubilized ionophores is a potential approach to cancer therapy.

Description
We have shown that water solubilized versions of a zinc ionophore increase intracellular concentrations of free zinc and have antiproliferative activity in exponential phase A549 lung cancer cultures. The gene expression profiles of A549 lung cancer cultures treated with the lead compound PCI-5002 reveal the activation of stress response pathways. Medium supplementation with zinc (25 M) led to activation of additional oxidative stress response as well as apoptotic pathways. We propose that the pharmacologic delivery of zinc to tumors using water solubilized ionophores is a potential approach to cancer therapy.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
The goal of this project was to characterize changes in gene expression in response to the anti-cancer agent sapphyrin PCI-2050. Cultured A549 human lung cancer cells were treated with sapphyrin PCI-2050 or actinomycin D, a known transcripitonal inhibitor. The gene expression profiles of drug-treated and control A549 cultures were determined using Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). Further details are provided in our published manuscript: <http://www.molecular-cancer.com/content/6/1/9>.

- Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Objective Telmisartan, an angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker, and amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, are antihypertensive agents clinically used as monotherapy or in combination. They exert beneficial cardiovascular effects independently of blood pressure lowering and classic mechanisms of action. In this study, we investigate molecular mechanisms responsible for the off-target effects of telmisartan and telmisartan-amlodipine in endothelial cells (EC), using an unbiased approach.
Publication Title
Telmisartan exerts pleiotropic effects in endothelial cells and promotes endothelial cell quiescence and survival.

Description
miR-29 can target many gene transcripts encoding extracellular matrix proteins. To unravel novel targets, we used microarray analysis to detect global gene expression changes when inhibiting endogenous miR-29.
Publication Title
Ten-eleven translocation (Tet) and thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG), components of the demethylation pathway, are direct targets of miRNA-29a.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The homeobox containing gene Arx is expressed during ventral telencephalon development and it is required for correct GABAergic interneuron tangential migration from the ganglionic eminences to the olfactory bulbs, cerebral cortex and striatum. Its human ortholog is associated with a variety of neurological clinical manifestations whose syntoms are compatible with a loss of cortical interneurons and altered basal ganglia related-activities in humans. Herein, we reported the identification by global expression profiling of a group of genes whose expression is consistently altered in Arx mutant ganglionic eminences. Following analysis revealed the striking ectopic expression in the ganglionic eminences of a number of genes normally not, or only marginally, expressed in the ventral telencephalon. Among them, we functionally analyzed Ebf3, whose ectopic expression in ventral telencephalon is preventingneuronal tangential migration. Further, we showed that Arx is sufficient to repress Ebf3 endogenous expression and that its silencing in Arx mutant tissue might marginally rescue tangential cell movements. Together, these data provide an initial analysis of the molecular pathways regulated by Arx and how their networking might regulate those specific cellular processes during telencephalon development strongly altered by loss of Arx.
Publication Title
Arx acts as a regional key selector gene in the ventral telencephalon mainly through its transcriptional repression activity.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
We mated mice with floxed alleles of both Apc and Pten, to mice with floxed alleles for Arid1a, to obtain female mice with both copies of all three genes floxed. At 7 to 8 weeks of age the right ovarian bursal cavites of the mice were injected with 50 million plaque-forming units of adenovirus expressing Cre recombinase, which causes the floxed genes to be knocked out. Tumor tissue from 3 mice for each group was obtained at necropsy, RNA purified, and targets for Affymetrix arrays synthesized from the mRNAs. We used Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays, which hold 45101 probe-sets. Raw data was processed with Robust Multi-array Average algorithm (RMA). Data is log2-transformed transcript abundance estimates. We performed T-tests to compare the 3 vs 3 arrays. We supply a supplementary excel workbook that holds the same data as the data matrix file, but also holds the probe-set annotation at the time we analyzed the data, and some very simple statistical calculations, which select subsets of the probe-sets as differentially expressed. Consumers should consider obtaining more up-to-date probe-set annotation for the array platform. We have also supplied a second supplementary tar archive holding software and files to 1) perform permutation testing of the probe-set selection in order to estimate false discovery rates for the probe-sets we selected as differentially expressed, 2) perform enrichment testing of GO terms, and 3) to perform enrichment testing of KEGG pathways and 3000 curated gene sets from version 4 of the Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB). The software is in "C".

Description
The abscence of TBR2 gene in human leads to microcephaly. This condition is mimicked by the specific ablation of the murine gene in developing cerebral cortex. Herein we compared gene expression in control and Tbr2 cKO in E14.5 cerebral cortices. This approach represents a useful tool to identify the molecular mechanisms at the basis of the phenotype.
