- Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Cancer Associated Fibroblasts (CAFs) play an active role in tumourigenesis. It is unknown how the permanent phenotypic changes in CAFs are encoded at the molecular level. Here we use whole genome sequencing and microarray analysis to interrogate the epigenome, transcriptome and genome of patient-matched CAF and non-malignant prostate fibroblast (NPF) cells.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disease affecting the central nervous system. The cause of MS is not known and the mechanism of IFN-beta, a disease-modifying treatment (DMT) approved for MS, is not well-understood. Oligonucleotide microarrays were used to study gene expression in plasmacytoid denditic cells (pDCs) which are antigen-presenting cells implicated in MS pathogenesis.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Achievement of specific tumor cell targeting remains a challenge for glioma gene therapy. We report here the identification and characterization of a 5 sequence of human HMGB2 gene for transcriptional targeting to glioblastoma. We performed microarray analysis and found HMGB2 as one of the genes that had a low level of expression in normal human astrocytes, but was significantly up-regulated in glioblastoma cells. Real-time PCR quantification revealed increase in HMBG2 expression level in glioblastoma tissues and cells between 11 to 79 fold over that in normal human brain tissue. With progressive truncation of a 5-upstream sequence of the HMGB2 gene, we identified a 500-bp fragment that displayed a high transcriptional activity in glioblastoma cells, but a low activity in normal brain cells. Using the sequence to drive the expression of the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene in the context of a baculoviral vector, glioblastoma cells died in the presence of ganciclovir, whereas normal human astrocytes and neurons were not affected. We further confirmed that after intra-tumor injection, the baculoviral vector effectively suppressed the growth of human glioblastoma cells in a mouse xenograft model. Our results suggest that the 5-upstream sequence of the HMGB2 gene can be used as an efficient, tumor-selective promoter in targeted vectors for glioblastoma gene therapy.

- Affymetrix Pseudomonas aeruginosa Array (paeg1a)
Description
The transcriptional regulator AmpR controls expression of the AmpC -lactamase in P. aeruginosa and other bacteria. Studies have demonstrated that in addition to regulating ampC expression, AmpR also regulates the expression of the sigma factor AlgT/U and the production of some quorum-sensing regulated virulence factors. In order to understand the ampR regulon, we compared the expression profiles of PAO1 and its isogenic ampR mutant, PAOampR in the presence and absence of sub-MIC -lactam stress. The analysis demonstrates that the ampR regulon is much more extensive than previously thought, with the deletion of ampR affecting the expression of over 300 genes. Expression of an additional 207 genes are affected by AmpR when the cells are exposed to sub-MIC -lactam stress, indicating that the ampR regulon in P. aeruginosa is much more extensive than previously thought.

Ion Torrent Proton
Description
Cells can survive effector caspase (caspase 3/7) activation in response to transient apoptotic stimuli, a process named anastasis. To characterize the molecular events that occur during anastasis, we performed whole transcriptome RNA sequencing of untreated, apoptotic, and recovering cells. We found that anastasis is an active, two-stage program with unique transcriptional profiles in each stage. We also identified 10 genes that specific to the early stage of anastasis. Overall design: 3hr ethanol treatment was used to induce apoptosis in Hela cells. Ethanol was washed away after 3hr treatment to allow cells to recover. Total RNA was prepared from mock-treated cells, ethanol-treated cells and cells after 1hr, 2hr, 3hr, 4hr, 8hr, 12hr recovery, followed by ribosomal RNA depletion. 3 biological replicates were included for each group. Sequencing was done using Ion Proton.

A molecular signature for anastasis, recovery from the brink of apoptotic cell death.
