Description
Treatment of leukemia cells with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 may overcome their differentiation block and lead to the transition from myeloblasts to monocytes. To identify microRNA-mRNA networks relevant for myeloid differentiation, we profiled the expression of mRNAs and microRNAs associated to the low- and high-density ribosomal fractions in leukemic cells and in their differentiated monocytic counterpart. Intersection between mRNAs shifted across the fractions after treatment with putative target genes of modulated microRNAs showed a series of molecular networks relevant for the monocyte cell fate determination

Description
Transcriptomic studies revealed that hundreds of mRNAs show differential expression in the brains of sleeping versus awake rats, mice, flies, and sparrows. Although these results have offered clues regarding the molecular consequences of sleep and sleep loss, their functional significance thus far has been limited. This is because the previous studies pooled transcripts from all brain cells, including neurons and glia.

Description
The p90 ribosomal S6 kinase (RSK) family, a downstream target of Ras/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling, can mediate cross-talk with the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) pathway. As RSK connects two oncogenic pathways in gliomas, we investigated the protein levels of the RSK isoforms RSK1-4 in non-tumoral brain (NB) and grade I-IV gliomas. RSK4 expression was not detected in any brain tissues, whereas RSK3 expression was very low, with GBMs demonstrating the lowest RSK3 protein levels. When compared to NB or low-grade gliomas (LGG), a group of glioblastomas (RSK1hi) that excluded long-survivor cases expressed higher levels of RSK1. No difference was observed in RSK2 median-expression levels among NB and gliomas; however, high levels of RSK2 in glioblastomas (GBM) were associated with worse survival. RSK1hi and, to a lesser extent, RSK2hi GBMs, showed higher levels of phosphorylated RSK, which indicates RSK activation. Transcriptome analysis indicated that most RSK1hi GBMs belonged to the mesenchymal subtype, and RSK1 expression strongly correlated with gene expression signature of immune infiltrates, in particular of activated-natural killer cells and M2 macrophages. In an independent cohort, we confirmed that RSK1hi GBMs exclude long-survivors, and RSK1 expression was associated with high protein levels of the mesenchymal subtype marker LAPTM5, as well as with high expression of CD68, which indicated the presence of infiltrating immune cells. An RSK1 signature was obtained based on differentially expressed mRNAs and validated in public glioma datasets. Enrichment of RSK1 signature followed glioma progression, recapitulating RSK1 protein expression, and was associated with worse survival not only in GBM but also in LGG. In conclusion, both RSK1 and RSK2 associate with glioma malignity, but displaying isoform-specific peculiarities. The progression-dependent expression and association with immune infiltration, suggests RSK1 as a potential progression marker and therapeutic target for gliomas.

Description
Promoter recognition by bacterial RNA polymerase is mediated by subunits, which assemble transiently to RNA polymerase core enzyme (E) during transcription initiation. subunits drive transcription of specific sets of genes by allowing RNA polymerase to interact with different promoter sequences. However, 70, the housekeeping subunit, and S, an alternative subunit mainly active during slow growth and in response to cellular stresses, appear to recognize almost identical promoter sequences, raising the question of how promoter selectivity is achieved in the bacterial cell. To identify sequence determinants for selective promoter recognition, we performed a run-off/microarray experiment (ROMA): in vitro transcription experiments were carried out with RNA polymerase saturated either with 70 (E70) or with S (ES) using the whole Escherichia coli genome as DNA template, and transcript levels were determined by microarray analysis. We found that several genes associated with bacterial growth (e.g., ribosomal operons) were transcribed more efficiently by E70. In contrast, ES transcribed preferentially genes involved in stress responses, secondary metabolism, as well as regulatory RNAs and intergenic regions with yet unknown function. Genes preferentially recognized in vitro by ES showed reduced expression in ES -deficient mutant strain of E. coli. Sequence comparison of E70- versus ES dependent promoters confirms that the presence of a -35 sequence and the relative location of UP elements affect promoter interaction with either form of RNA polymerase, and suggests that a G/C bias in the -2/+1 nucleotides would favour efficient promoter recognition by E70.

Description
In humans, the most common sex chromosomal disorder is Klinefelter syndrome (KS), caused by the presence of one or more extra X-chromosomes. The KS patients display a diverse adult phenotype with increased height, gynaecomastia, and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism as the most common symptoms. Men with KS are almost always infertile due to testicular degeneration, which accelerates during puberty. Very few studies investigated the global gene expression analysis of adult KS testes and, more importantly, which cell types the differentially expressed transcripts originate from. Transcriptome analysis by RNA sequencing of fixed and paraffin embedded testes originating from 3 adult KS samples and 3 adult cellularity-matched controls revealed 236 differentially expressed transcripts in the adult KS testis. To examine the cellular origin of the differentially expressed transcripts, transcriptome profiling was also carried out on 4 testes with Sertoli Cell-Only and 4 testes with full spermatogenesis. Also, pre-pubertal KS and controls were RNA-sequenced. Overall design: Includes a total of 22 testis samples. 3 adult Klinefelter, 3 Klinefelter-like, 4 Sertoli Cell-Only, 4 with full spermatogenesi, 4 pre-pubertal Klinefelter and 4 pre-pubertal controls

- Affymetrix Wheat Genome Array (wheat)
Description
To provide a global study of transcriptome changes under drought stress, the gene expression levels of a durum wheat genotype (Triticum durum Desf. cultivar Creso) and two bread wheat genotypes (Triticum aestivum L. cultivar Chinese Spring -CS- and its deletion line CS_5AL-10) were investigated. The 5A chromosome deletion line (5AL-10) lacks the distal part (43%) of the long arm of chromosome 5A. Each genotype was subjected to two different levels of water stress at the grain filling stage. After anthesis, three different levels of soil water content (SWC) were induced as described below: control (CTRL; SWC=28%), moderate stress (MS; SWC=18%), and severe stress (SS; SWC=12.5%). For each sample, three biological replicates were performed, for a total of 27 hybridizations. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Alessio Aprile.

Description
The efficacy and exceptionally good tolerance of estrogen blockade in the treatment of breast cancer is well recognized but novel agents are required, especially to take advantage of the multiple consecutive responses obtained in breast cancer progressing following previous hormone therapy, thus delaying the use of cytotoxic chemotherapy with its usually serious side effects. Acolbifene (ACOL) is a novel and unique antiestrogen completely free of estrogen-like activity in both the mammary gland and uterus while preventing bone loss. From the preclinical and clinical data so-far available, this new antiestrogen represents a unique opportunity for a highly potent and specific blockade of estrogen action in the mammary gland and uterus while exerting estrogen-like beneficial effects in other tissues (selective estrogen receptor modulator or SERM activity). In order to better understand the specificity of action of acolbifene, we have used Affymetrix GeneChips containing 45,000 probe sets to analyze 34,000 genes to determine the specificity of this compound compared to the pure antiestrogen fulvestrant, as well as the mixed antagonists/agonists tamoxifen and raloxifene to block the effect of estradiol (E2) and to induce effects of their own on gene expression in the mouse mammary gland. The genes modulated by E2 were those identified in two separate experiments and validated by quantitative real-time PCR (Q_RT-PCR). Three hours after the single subcutaneous injection of E2 (0.05 ug), the simultaneous administration of acolbifene, fulvestrant, tamoxifen and raloxifene blocked by 98%, 62%, 43% and 92% the number of E2-upregulated genes, respectively. On the other hand, 70%, 10%, 25% and 55% of the genes down-regulated by E2 were blocked by the same compounds. Acolbifene was also the compound which, when used alone, modulated the smallest number of genes also influenced by E2, namely 4%, thus possibly explaining the potent tumoricidal action of this compound in human breast cancer xenografts where 61% of tumors disappeared, thus bringing a new paradigm in the hormonal therapy of breast cancer.
