View SamplesGlioblastoma multiforme is the most lethal form of glioma with an overall survival at 5 years nearly null, which mainly results from acquired resistance to therapies. Large scale sequencing studies on human cancer biopsies defined IRE1alpha as the fifth most oncogenic mutated kinase in human cancer. IRE1alpha is a major component of the Unfolded Protein Response signaling and increasing evidence suggests that it is a central player in GBM development.
Dual IRE1 RNase functions dictate glioblastoma development.

View SamplesMastic oil from Pistacia lentiscus variation chia, a blend of bioactive terpenes with recognized medicinal properties, has been recently shown to exert anti-tumor activity. Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells are mastic oil-susceptible cells and were used in this work to study the effects of mastic oil at the transcriptomic level.
A transcriptomic computational analysis of mastic oil-treated Lewis lung carcinomas reveals molecular mechanisms targeting tumor cell growth and survival.

View SamplesColorectal cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease, with variable molecular pathogenesis, involving multiple genomic and epigenetic alterations. Despite the significant advances in the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer, it remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality, especially for countries in Northern America and Europe, as also in New Zealand & Australia. In this direction, the introduction of gene expression signatures derived from multiple layers of molecular & clinical dissection, may resolve the problems of heterogeneity and improve robust disease stratification

View SamplesHuman Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells were treated with three newly synthesized compounds and DMSO as vehicle. Total RNA was isolated 6 and 24h after treatment and gene expression analysis was performed. Three independent experiments were performed, corresponding to rep1, rep2 and rep3. Experiment 1 (rep1) contained all substances at both time points tested. Experiment 2 (rep2) contained two of the compounds and control DMSO at both time points. Experiment 3 (rep3) contained the third compound and control DMSO at both time points.

View SamplesVisceral leishmaniasis (VL), caused by Leishmania spp protozoan parasites, can provoke overwhelming and protracted epidemics, with high casefatality rates. Despite extensive efforts towards the development of an effective prophylactic vaccine, no promising vaccine is available yet for humans. Multi-epitope peptide based vaccine development is manifesting as the new era of vaccination strategies against VL. Aim of the study was the design of chimeric peptides from immunogenic L. infantum proteins for encapsulation in PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) alone or in combination with MPLA adjuvant, or in PLGA NPs surface modified with an octapeptide mimicking TNF-alpha for DCs targeting, in order to construct a peptide-based nanovaccine. The in vitro evaluation of the above nanoformulations was performed in DCs isolated from HLA-A2.1 transgenic mice. Characterization of DCs transcriptional responses to these vaccine candidates via microarrays could improve our understanding of their mechanisms of action on DCs' functional differentiation and the type of adaptive immunity subsequently induced.

View SamplesVisceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by Leishmania donovani and L. infantum is a potentially fatal disease. To date there are no registered vaccines for disease prevention despite the fact that several vaccines are in preclinical development. Thus, new strategies are needed to improve vaccine efficacy based on a better understanding of the mechanisms mediating protective immunity and mechanisms of host immune responses subversion by immunopathogenic components of Leishmania. In the present study, determination of the immune mechanisms related to infection or protective immune responses against VL using an experimental nanovaccine as a vaccine model was conducted through microarray analysis.
