Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Array (zebrafish)
Description
UHRF1 (Ubiquitin-like, containing PHD and RING finger domains, 1) recruits DNMT1 to hemimethylated DNA during replication, is essential for maintaining DNA methylation patterns during cell division and is suggested to direct additional repressive epigenetic marks. Uhrf1 mutation in zebrafish results in multiple embryonic defects including failed hepatic outgrowth, but the epigenetic basis of these phenotypes is not known. We find that DNA methylation is the only epigenetic mark that is depleted in uhrf1 mutants and make the surprising finding that despite the reduced organ size in uhrf1 mutants, genes regulating DNA replication and S-phase progression were highly upregulated. Further, there is a striking increase in BrdU incorporation in uhrf1 mutant cells, and they retained BrdU labeling over several days, indicating they are arrested in S-phase. Moreover, some of the label retaining nuclei co-localized with TUNEL positive nuclei, suggesting that arrested cells are responsible for apoptosis. Importantly, dnmt1 mutation phenocopies the S-phase arrest and hepatic outgrowth defects in uhrf1 mutants and Dnmt1 knock-down enhances the uhrf1 hepatic phenotype. Together, these data indicate that DNA hypomethylation is sufficient to generate the uhrf1 mutant phenotype by promoting an S-phase arrest. We thus propose that cell cycle arrest is a mechanism to restrict propagation of epigenetically deranged cells during embryogenesis.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
The menin tumor suppressor protein (Men1) is deficient in many endocrine tumors and forms an active complex with MLL family histone methyltransferases. This Men1 complex promotes histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation at target loci including homeobox genes and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor genes. The loss of Men1 may be tumorigenic because it leads to decreased histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation resulting in expressional changes of specific genes.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Aberrations in epigenetic processes, such as histone methylation, can lead to cancer. Retinoblastoma Binding Protein 2 (RBP2)(also called JARID1A or KDM5A) can demethylate tri- and di-methylated lysine 4 in histone H3, which are epigenetic marks for transcriptionally active chromatin, whereas the MEN1 tumor suppressor promotes H3K4 methylation. Previous studies suggested that inhibition of RBP2 contributed to tumor suppression by pRB. Here we show RBP2 loss promotes cellular differentiation in vitro. We use mouse expression array 430 2.0 array to profile gene expression patterns of Rbp2f/f and Rbp2-/- ES cells in ES cell medium and after 6 days in ES cell medium without LIF.

Description
Macrophages in tumor microenvironment have been characterized as M1- and M2-polarized subtypes. This study sought to investigate the effects of different macrophage subtypes on the biological behavior and global gene expression profiles of lung cancer cells. Expression microarray and bioinformatics analyses indicated that the different macrophage subtypes mainly regulated genes involved in cell cycle, cytoskeletal remodeling, coagulation, cell adhesion and apoptosis pathways in A549 cells, a pattern that correlated with the altered behavior of A549 cells observed after coculture with macrophage subtypes.

- Affymetrix Mouse Expression 430A Array (moe430a)
Description
The study was designed in order to identify genes differentially expressed when glucocorticoid signaling is blocked by a glucocorticoid-receptor antagonist (RU486 mifepristone) in the context of brain inflammation induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). LPS is only able to cause murine brain damage in our experimental conditions upon RU486 pre-treatment. Hence, the study may reveal potential candidate genes to mediate neuroprotection or neurotoxicity. Due to the factorial design of the experiment, RU486 main-effect could be dissociated from the effects resultant of RU486/inflammation interaction. In addition, brain dissection was conducted to verify the effects in the brain side ipsilateral or contralateral to the site of intracerebral LPS infusion.
