Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Accumulating evidence suggests that dysregulation of hypoxia-regulated transcriptional mechanisms is involved in development of chronic kidney diseases (CKD). However, it remains unclear how hypoxia-induced transcription factors (HIFs) and subsequent biological processes contribute to CKD development and progression. In our study, genome-wide expression profiles of more than 200 renal biopsies from patients with different CKD stages revealed significant correlation of HIF-target genes with eGFR in glomeruli and tubulointerstitium. These correlations were positive and negative and in part compartment-specific. Microarrays of proximal tubular cells and podocytes with stable HIF1 and/or HIF2 suppression displayed cell type-specific HIF1/HIF2-dependencies as well as dysregulation of several pathways. WGCNA analysis identified gene sets that were highly coregulated within modules. Characterization of the modules revealed common as well as cell group- and condition-specific pathways, GO-Terms and transcription factors. Gene expression analysis of the hypoxia-interconnected pathways in patients with different CKD stages revealed an increased dysregulation with loss of renal function. In conclusion, our data clearly point to a compartment- and cell type-specific dysregulation of hypoxia-associated gene transcripts and might help to improve the understanding of hypoxia, HIF dysregulation, and transcriptional program response in CKD.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Genetic predisposition and environmental components contribute to an individuals non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) susceptibility. Therefore, we compared phenotypic variations of mouse strains extensively used in biomedical research during induction of high-fat diet (HFD)-mediated NAFLD and assessed transcriptional alterations in livers. In a time-resolved fashion we determined a wide spectrum of physiological parameters in C3HeB/FeJ (C3H), C57BL/6NTac, C57BL/6J, and 129P2/OlaHsd (129) males during a 7, 14, or 21 days HFD challenge and performed gene transcription analyses in steatotic livers.

Description
In this survey we effectively combined transcriptomics, proteomics and targeted-metabolomics to analyse the temporal relationship of alterations in liver preceding and accompanying the development of HFD-mediated hepatic insulin resistance. To assess HFD-mediated alterations in physiological parameters, insulin sensitivity, and molecular adaptations in liver male C3HeB/FeJ mice treated with a high-fat diet (HFD) for 7, 14, or 21 days and compared to age- matched controls fed low-fat diet (LFD).

Description
All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is a potent retinoid, which has been used successfully in different clinical settings as a potential drug to treat COPD and emphysema. In alveolar macrophages, ATRA selectively down-regulates MMP-9 and up-regulates TIMP-1 expression.

Description
Patients with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) show heterogeneous treatment outcomes. We used gene expression profiling to develop a gene signature that predicts overall survival (OS) in CN-AML. Based on data from 163 patients treated in the German AMLCG 1999 trial and analyzed on oligonucleotide microarrays, we used supervised principal component analysis to identify 86 probe sets (representing 66 different genes) which correlated with OS, and defined a prognostic score based on this signature. When applied to an independent cohort of 79 CN-AML patients, this continuous score remained a significant predictor for OS (hazard ratio [HR], 1.85; P=0.002), EFS (HR, 1.73; P=0.001), and RFS (HR, 1.76; P=0.025). It kept its prognostic value in multivariate analyses adjusting for age, FLT3 ITD and NPM1 status. In a validation cohort of 64 CN-AML patients treated on CALGB study 9621, the score also predicted OS (HR, 4.11; P<0.001), EFS (HR, 2.90; P<0.001), and RFS (HR, 3.14, P<0.001) and retained its significance in a multivariate model for OS. In summary, we present a novel gene expression signature that offers additional prognostic information for patients with CN-AML.

Description
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) represent an abundant cell population of the immune infiltrate in solid tumors and have been shown to orchestrate escape from immune surveillance. Macrophages display a very plastic phenotype which is recapitulated in vitro by classifying certain subsets according to exposure with defined, individual cytokines. The tumor-promoting M2 macrophages are polarized in vitro by differentiating human monocyte-derived macrophages with the T helper cell type 2 (Th2) response cytokines interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 or the immunosuppressive cytokine interleukin-10. Notably, only the latter macrophage subset undergoes apoptosis when treated with the colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) blocking antibody emactuzumab. However, under physiologic conditions the phenotype of TAM is shaped by a combination of cytokines. Hence, we evaluated if the addition of IL-10 to IL-4 or IL-13 differentiated macrophages is able to override IL-4/-13 mediated signaling and to restore susceptibility to emactuzumab. Though addition of IL-10 did not restore emactuzumab susceptibility, we surprisingly detected that only IL-4 differentiated macrophages sustained their specific marker expression while IL-10 skewed the IL-13 differentiated macrophage profile towards the IL-10 regulated phenotype. In-depth characterization by gene expression profiling revealed unique signatures of IL-4+IL-10 and IL-13+IL-10 differentiated macrophage subsets characterized by upregulation of the canonical NFB signaling or Wnt/-catenin signaling pathways, respectively. In silico-based analysis of a large cohort of cancer patients revealed distinct interleukin-4 or interleukin-13 overexpression patterns in a subset of patients with partial co-expression of IL-10 but almost absent IL-4/IL-13 co-expression. These patients may have less TAM depletion under therapy with CSF1R inhibitors.
