Affymetrix Citrus Genome Array (citrus)
Description
We have used the citrus GeneChip array (GPL5731) to survey the transcription profiles of sweet orange in response to the bacterial pathogens Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac) and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. aurantifolii (Xaa). Xac is the causal agent of the citrus canker disease on a wide range of citrus species, including sweet oranges (Citrus sinensis). On the other hand, Xaa is pathogenic to Mexican lime (Citrus aurantifolia) only, and in sweet orange it triggers a defense response. In order to identify the genes induced during the defense response (Xaa-responsive genes) or citrus canker development (Xac-responsive genes), we conducted microarrays hybridization experiments at 6 and 48 hours after bacterial infiltration (habi). The analysis revealed that genes commonly modulated by Xac and Xaa are associated with basal defenses normally triggered by pathogen-associated molecular patterns, including those involved in reactive oxygen species production and lignification. Significantly, Xac-infected leaves showed considerable changes in the transcriptional profiles of defense-, cell wall-, vesicle trafficking- and cell growth-related genes between 6 and 48 habi. This is consistent with the notion that Xac suppresses host defenses near the beginning of the infection and simultaneously changes the physiological status of the host to promote cell enlargement and division. Finally, Xaa triggered a MAP kinase signaling pathway involving WRKY and ethylene-responsive transcriptional factors known to activate downstream defense genes.

Description
Statins and bisphosponates (BPs) are two distinct classes of isoprenoid pathway inhibitors targeting HMG-CoA reductase (upstream enzyme) and Farnesyl-pyrophospate synthase (downstream enzyme) respectively. Here we conducted a comparative study of two representatives of these classes, fluvastatin (Fluva) and Zoledronate (Zol), to assess the differences in their in vivo metastatic potentials and pharmacogenomic profiles. Both drugs, being administered after emergence of detectable metastases, appeared to be potent metastasis inhibitors in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer metastasis model. We observed a reduced number of metastatic sites under Fluva, but not Zol treatment. Combinatorial in vivo treatment by Fluva and Zol showed no synergy for these drugs, as reported earlier on the basis of in vitro studies (Budman DR, Oncology 2006), staying in line with similarity of their transcriptomic profiles. Comparison of Zol and Fluva transcriptomic profiles revealed similar patterns of affected genes (describe involved genes functions) through different kinetics (when treated with IC50 determined for 72h treatment, the majority of changes were observed after 24h incubation with Fluva , and only after 48h incubation with Zol at 72h-IC50 or after 24h treatment with its 3 times higher dose). We demonstrated here that targeting different enzymes of the same pathway neither necessarily leads to distinct changes in gene profiles, nor to synergy for in vivo anti-metastatic potential.

Description
Expression of DREAM in dorsal root ganglia and spinal cord is related to endogenous control mechanisms of acute and chronic pain. In primary sensory trigeminal neurons high levels of endogenous DREAM protein are preferentially localized in the nucleus, suggesting a major transcriptional role. Here, we show that DREAM participates in the control of trigeminal pain perception through the regulation of prodynorphin and BDNF. Furthermore, genome-wide analysis of trigeminal neurons in daDREAM transgenic mice revealed that cathepsin L (CTSL) and the monoglyceride lipase (MGLL) are new DREAM downstream targets and have a role in the regulation of trigeminal nociception.

Description
Exposure to high irradiance results in dramatic changes in nuclear gene expression in plants. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which changes in irradiance are sensed and how the information is transduced to the nucleus to initiate the genetic response. To investigate whether the photoreceptors are involved in the response to high irradiance, we analyzed expression of ELIP1, ELIP2, APX2 and LHCB2.4 in the phyA, phyB, cry1 and cry2 photoreceptor mutants and hy5 and hyh transcription factor mutants. Following exposure to high intensity white light for 3 h (HL, 1000 micro mol quanta m-2 s-1) expression of ELIP1/2 and APX2 was strongly induced and LHCB2.4 expression repressed in wild type. The cry1 and hy5 mutants showed specific mis-regulation of ELIP1/2 and we show that the induction of ELIP1/2 expression is mediated via CRY1 in a blue light intensity-dependent manner. Furthermore, using the Affymetrix Arabidopsis 24K Gene-Chip we showed that 77 of the HL responsive genes are regulated via CRY1, and 26 of those genes were also HY5 dependent. As a consequence of the mis-regulation of these genes the cry1 mutant displayed a high irradiance-sensitive phenotype with significant photoinactivation of PSII, indicated by reduced Fv/Fm. Thus, we describe a novel function of CRY1 in mediating plant responses to high irradiances that is essential to the induction of photoprotective mechanisms. This indicates that high irradiance can be sensed in a chloroplast-independent manner by a cytosolic/nucleic component.

Description
Antitoxins are becoming recognized as proteins that regulate more than their own synthesis; for example, we found previously that antitoxin MqsA represses the gene encoding the stationary phase sigma factor RpoS. Here, we investigated the physiological role of antitoxin DinJ of the DinJ/YafQ toxin/antitoxin system and found DinJ also affects the general stress response by decreasing RpoS levels. Corroborating the reduced RpoS levels upon producing DinJ, catalase activity, cell adhesins, and cyclic diguanylate decreased while swimming increased. Using a transcriptome search and DNA-binding assays, we determined that the mechanism by which DinJ reduces RpoS is by repressing cspE which encodes cold-shock protein CspE that inhibits translation of rpoS mRNA. Hence, DinJ influences the general stress response indirectly by regulating cspE.

Description
Vascular endothelial growth factor is a multifunctional cytokine playing important roles in angiogenesis, tumor progression and metastasis. Alternative splicing results in the production of several different isoforms of VEGF. We have previously generated human breast cancer cells overexpressing VEGF165 or VEGF189 isoforms (referred to as the V165 and V189 clones, respectively) and showed that VEGF189-transfected cells were less tumorigenic. In this study, we used bioluminescence imaging to analyze the metastasis capacity of breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-321) overexpressing VEGF isoforms in nude mice. V165, V189 and control cV clones were transfected with a luciferase plasmid to generate bioluminescent clones (the V165-B, V189-B and cV clones, respectively). These clones were then injected into the left heart ventricle of nude mice.

Description
Persister cells are a sub-population of all bacterial cultures which exhibit a non-inheritable, multi-drug tolerance when subjected to lethal antibiotic challenge. These persisters arise as a result of metabolic dormancy, and can resume growth subsequent to antibiotic challenge, leading to recalcitrance of bacterial infections.
