View SamplesGene expression patterns in the brain are strongly influenced by the severity of physiological stress at death. This agonal effect, if not well controlled, can lead to spurious findings in case-control comparisons. While many recent studies match samples by tissue pH and clinically recorded agonal conditions, we found that these commonly used indicators were sometimes at odds with observed stress-related patterns of gene expression, and that matching by these criteria still sometimes results in identifying differences between cases and controls that are primarily driven by residual agonal effects. This problem is analogous to the one in genetic studies, where race and ethnicity are often imprecise proxies for complex environmental and genetic factors.

Subject
View SamplesThe study of the compond PIP-RBPJ-1 function on neural stem cell. Synthetic DNA-binding inhibitors capable of gaining precise control over neurogenesis factors could obviate the current clinical barriers associated with small molecule use in regenerative medicine. Here, we show the design and bio-efficacy of a synthetic ligand PIP-RBPJ-1 to cause promoter-specific suppression of neurogenesis-associated HES1, and its downstream genes. Furthermore, PIP-RBPJ-1 alone could alter the neural system-associated notch signaling factors and remarkably induce neurogenesis with an efficiency that is comparable to a conventional approach. Here is one day treatment of the PIP-RBPJ-1 on neural stem cells.

View SamplesThis data was used to determine levels of BRCA1 and BRCA2 in primary human leukemia samples. Samples were determined to be high BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 or low BRCA1 and/or BRAC2.

View SamplesRecombinant adenovirus vectors were used to express wild type or domain swap mutants of A-Myb and c-Myb transcription factors in MCF-7 cells or pimary lung epithelial cells or fibroblasts. The results show that Myb proteins have extreme context specificity and identify sub-domains responsible for the activation of specific sets of target genes.

View SamplesThe transcriptional activities of c-Myb and its oncogenic variant v-Myb were compared by expressing them in human MCF7 cells using recombinant adenovirus vectors. A hybrid construct, 3Mutc, which is a variant of c-Myb harboring three v-Myb-derived DNA binding domain mutations was also analyzed. All the samples were compared to cells infected with a control adenovirus. The results showed that v-Myb, which differs from c-Myb only by N- and C-terminal deletions and eleven amino acid substitutions, has a qualitatively different transcriptional activity.
Oncogenic mutations cause dramatic, qualitative changes in the transcriptional activity of c-Myb.

View SamplesThe transcriptional activities of c-Myb and its oncogenic variant v-Myb were compared by expressing them in primary human monocytes using recombinant adenovirus vectors. All the samples were compared to cells infected with a control adenovirus expressing only GFP. The results showed that v-Myb, which differs from c-Myb only by N- and C-terminal deletions and eleven amino acid substitutions, has a qualitatively different transcriptional activity.
