Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
The MaxiK potassium channel is a key modulator of smooth muscle tone. Due to its calcium and voltage sensitivity, MaxiK is activated following depolarization and Ca2+ mobilization, therefore relaxing the muscle. We investigate the effects of silencing MaxiK for 48h in corpus cavernosuml smooth muscle (CCSM) cells to identify possible mechanisms of compensation through molecular crosstalk between pathways regulating smooth muscle tone.
Publication Title
Silencing MaxiK activity in corporal smooth muscle cells initiates compensatory mechanisms to maintain calcium homeostasis.

Description
Ustekinumab provides clinical benefit to psoriasis patients, but precise cellular and molecular changes underlying its therapeutic utility are not yet fully understood. To assess differences between ustekinumab responders vs. non responders in modulating specific inflammatory pathways and provide reference data for exploring molecular effects of next-generation interleukin(IL)-17 and IL-23-antagonists in psoriasis.

Description
A gene expression profiling sub-study was conducted in which skin biopsy samples (n=192) were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization to microarrays from patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis who participated in ACCEPT, an IRB-approved Phase 3, multicenter, randomized trial.

Description
This study was designed to address key questions concerning the use of alternative protein sources for animal feeds and addresses aspects such as their nutrient composition and impact on gut function, the immune system and systemic physiology. We used casein (CAS), partially delactosed whey powder (DWP), spray dried porcine plasma (SDPP), soybean meal (SBM), wheat gluten meal (WGM) and yellow meal worm (YMW) as protein sources.

Description
Epigenetic mechanisms play a critical role during differentiation of T cells by contributing to the formation of stable and heritable transcriptional patterns. To further study the mechanisms of memory maintenance in CD8+ T cells, we performed genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation, histone marking (H3K9Ac and H3K9me3) and gene expression profiles in naive, effector memory (EM) and terminally differentiated memory (TEMRA) cells. Our results indicate that DNA demethylation and histone acetylation are coordinated to generate the transcriptional program associated with memory cells. Conversely, EM and TEMRA cells share a very similar epigenetic landscape. Nonetheless, the TEMRA transcriptional program predicts an innate immunity phenotype associated with genes never reported in these cells, including several mediators of NK cell activation (VAV3 and LYN) and a large array of NK receptors (KIR2DL3, KIR2DL4, KIR2DL1, KIR3DL1, KIR2DS5, etc.). In addition, we identified up to 161 genes that encode transcriptional regulators, some of unknown function in CD8+ T cells, that were differentially expressed in the course of differentiation. Overall, these results provide new insights into the regulatory networks involved in memory CD8+ T cell maintenance and T cell terminal differentiation.

Description
In this study, we sought to determine how IL-17 and TNF influence normal human melanocytes, either alone, or with both cytokines together. We reveal a dichotomous effect of IL-17 and TNF, which not only elicit essential mitogenic cytokines but also suppress melanogenesis by down-regulating genes of melanogenesis pathway
Publication Title
IL-17 and TNF synergistically modulate cytokine expression while suppressing melanogenesis: potential relevance to psoriasis.
