Affymetrix Human Genome U133B Array (hgu133b), Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by massive neurodegeneration and multiple changes in cellular processes, including neurogenesis. Proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) plays a central role in AD. Due to varying APP processing, several beta-amyloid peptides are generated. In contrast to the form with 40 amino acids, the variant with 42 amino acids is thought to be the pathogenic form triggering the pathophysiological cascade in AD. Here, we studied the transcriptomic response to increased or decreased Abeta42 levels generated in human neuroblastoma cells. Genome-wide expression profiles (Affymetrix)were used to analyze the cellular response to the changed Abeta42 and Abeta40-levels. <br></br><br></br>Human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y is a thrice cloned (SK-N-SH -> SH-SY -> SH-SY5 -> SH-SY5Y) subline of the neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-SH which was isolated and established in 1970. This cell line has 47 chromosomes. The cells possess a unique marker comprised of a chromosome 1 with a complex insertion of an additional copy of a 1q segment into the long arm, resulting in trisomy of 1q. The cell lines used in this study are SHSY5Y transfected with the constructs pCEP-C99I45F, pCEP-C99V50F, pCEP-C99 wildtype or mock transfected with an empty vector. Independent cell clones of each transfected line were used to provide biological replicates.<br></br> Overexpressed C99 I45F is intracellularly cleaved resulting in high Abeta42, but low Abeta40 levels.<br></br> Overexpressed C99V50F is intracellularly cleaved resulting in low Abeta42, but high Abeta40 levels.<br></br>Overexpressed C99 wildtype is intracellularly cleaved resulting in medium Abeta42 and Abeta40 levels<br></br>Mock is the SHSY5Y cell line transfected with the empty vector pCEP (Invitrogen) as a negative control

Description
Both spotted long oligonucleotide arrays (GPL1384) and Affymetrix GeneChip arrays (GPL96) were used to analyze gene expression in six human head and neck squamous cell carinoma samples versus control samples or lymph node metastases of the same patients. Hybridizations of HG-U133A GeneChip arrays were performed using standard Affymetrix protocols and equipment. Before hybridization on DKFZ Operon 27k long oligonucleotide arrays, 2 g RNA were amplified by one round of linear isothermal RNA amplification, followed by Cy-dUTP incorporation using Klenow fragment. Hybridizations were performed for 16 h at 42 C in a GeneTAC Hybridization Station (Genomic Solutions) using UltraHyb hybridization buffer (Ambion). Hybridized microarrays were scanned at 5 m resolution on a GenePix 4000B microarray scanner (Axon Instruments). Raw signal intensities from both platforms were normalized applying variance stabilization (W. Huber et al., Bioinformatics 18 Suppl 1, 2002). Expression ratios were compared for those genes represented in both array platforms.

- Affymetrix Murine Genome U74A Version 2 Array (mgu74av2)
Description
Current methods to analyze gene expression measure steady-state levels of mRNA. In order to specifically analyze mRNA transcription, a technique has been developed that can be applied in-vivo. The technique is referred with the acronym NIAC-NTR (Non Invasive Application and Capture of Newly Transcribed RNA). This method makes use of the cellular pyrimidine salvage pathway and is based on affinity-chromatographic isolation of thiolated mRNA. When combined with data on mRNA steady-state levels, this method is able to assess the relative contributions of mRNA synthesis and degradation/stabilization. It overcomes limitations associated with currently available methods such as mechanistic intervention that disrupts cellular physiology, or the inability to apply the techniques in-vivo. The method has been applied to a model of serum response of cultured primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts.

It overcomes limitations associated with currently available methods such as mechanistic intervention that disrupts cellular physiology, or the inability to apply the techniques in-vivo. The method was applied to study renal ischemia reperfusion injury, demonstrating its applicability for whole organs in-vivo.

Description
We used RNA-seq to interrogate prostate cancer specific gene fusions, alternative splicings, somatic mutations and novel transcripts. Overall design: We sequenced the transcriptome (polyA+) of 20 prostate cancer tumors and 10 matched normal tissues using Illumina GAII platform. Then we used bioinformatic approaches to identify prostate cancer specific aberrations which include gene fusion, alternative splicing, somatic mutation, etc.

Description
COUP-TFII, a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily plays a critical role in angiogenesis and organogenesis during embryonic development. Our results indicate that COUP-TFII expression is profoundly upregulated in prostate cancer patients and might serves as biomarker for recurrence prediction. Thus we conduct transcriptome comparison of control and COUP-TFII depleted PC3 cells to gain genomic insights on the biological processes that COUP-TFII is involved in prostate cancer cells. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) shows that the most prominent altered pathways in the COUP-TFII depleted cells are related to cell growth; cell cycle progression and DNA damage response. Indeed many growth related genes including E2F1, p21, CDC25A, Cyclin A and Cyclin B are changed in COUP-TFII knockdown cells, suggesting that COUP-TFII might be an important regulator for prostate cancer cell growth. Further functional assays from cells and mice genetic studies confirm the hypothesis that COUP-TFII serve as the major regulator to control prostrate cancer growth. Together, results provide insight into the role of COUP-TFII in prostate tumorigenesis.
