Description
RNA-seq analysis was performed using RNA isolated from three tumor models (GL261 glioma, LLC Lewis lung carcinoma, B16F10 melanoma) implanted subcutaneousy in C57BL/6 mice, or in ICR scid mice. Mice were untreated or were treated with cyclophosphamide (CPA) given on a 6-day repeating metronomic schedule (CPA/6d), except as noted. Results from these global transcriptome analysis indicated substantial elevation of basal GL261 immune infiltration and strong activation by CPA/6d treatment of GL261 immune stimulatory pathways and their upstream regulators, but without preferential depletion of negative immune regulators compared to LLC and B16F10 tumors. In LLC tumors, where CPA/6d treatment was found to be anti-angiogenic, CPA/6d suppressed VEGFA target genes and down regulated cell adhesion and leukocyte transendothelial migration genes. In GL261 tumors implanted in adaptive immune-deficient scid mice, where CPA/6d-induced GL261 regression is incomplete and late tumor growth rebound can occur, T cell receptor signaling and certain cytokine-cytokine receptor responses seen in B6 mice were deficient. Extending the CPA treatment interval from 6 to 9 days (CPA/9d) - which results in a strong but transient natural killer cell response followed by early tumor growth rebound - induced fewer cytokines and increased expression of drug metabolism genes. Taken together, these findings elucidate molecular response pathways activated by intermittent metronomic CPA treatment and identify deficiencies that characterize immune-unresponsive tumor models and drug schedules. Overall design: RNA isolated from various tumor cell lines implanted s.c in C57BL/6 mice or scid mice, untreated or treated with cyclophosphamide (CPA) given on a metronomic schedule, were prepared and used for stranded or unstranded RNA-seq.

Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Existing controversy regarding the importance of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in fatty acid (FA) oxidation in skeletal muscle with contraction/exercise may to some extent pertain to redundant AMPK1 signaling. Using a mouse model lacking both AMPK1 and -2 in skeletal muscle specifically (mdKO) we hypothesized that FA utilization would be impaired in skeletal muscle. Calorimetric analysis showed a similar respiratory exchange ratio (RER) of AMPK WT and mdKO mice when fed normal chow, a high fat diet or with prolonged fasting. Though, in vivo treadmill exercise at the same relative intensity induced a higher RER in mdKO mice compared to WT (WT=0.81; mdKO=0.87; p<0.01) indicating a decreased utilization of FA. Ex vivo incubation of soleus muscle revealed that basal and contraction-induced FA oxidation was impaired in mdKO mice, suggesting that the increased RER during in vivo running exercise originated from decreased skeletal muscle FA oxidation. A decreased muscle protein expression of CD36 and FABPpm (by 17-40%) together with abolishment of TBC1D1 Ser237 phosphorylation in mdKO mice, may result in lower FA transport capacity and FA transport protein translocation to sarcolemma, respectively. In summary this study shows that the catalytically active AMPK subunits are required for normal stimulation of FA utilization during exercise and contractions.

- Affymetrix Wheat Genome Array (wheat)
Description
The use of statistical tools established for the genetic analysis of quantitative traits can be applied to gene expression data. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis can associate expression of genes or groups of genes with particular genomic regions and thereby identify regions that play a role in the regulation of gene expression. A segregating population of 41 doubled haploid (DH) lines from the hard red spring wheat cross RL4452 x AC Domain was used. This population had previously been mapped with microsatellites and includes a full QTL analysis for agronomic and seed quality traits. Expression analysis from 5 day post anthesis developing seed was conducted on 39 of the 41 DH lines using the Affymetrix wheat array. Expression analysis of developing seeds from field grown material identified 1,327 sequences represented by Affymetrix probe sets whose expression varied significantly between genotypes of the population. A sub-set of 378 transcripts were identified that each mapped to a single chromosome interval illustrating that major expression QTLs can be found in wheat. Genomic regions corresponding to multiple expression QTLs were identified that were coincident with previous identified seed quality trait QTL. These regions may be important regulatory regions governing economically important traits. Comparison of expression mapping data with physical mapping for a sub-set of sequences showed that both cis and trans acting expression QTLs were present.

Description
At least six histone H1 variants exist in mammalian somatic cells that bind to the linker DNA and stabilize the nucleosome particle contributing to higher order chromatin compaction. In addition, H1 seems to be involved in the active regulation of gene expression. It is not well known whether the different variants have specific roles or regulate specific promoters. We have explored this by inducible shRNA-mediated knock-down of each of the H1 variants in a human breast cancer cell line. A different subset of genes is altered in each H1 knock-down.

Depletion of human histone H1 variants uncovers specific roles in gene expression and cell growth.

Description
Background: Venous hypertension is often present in advanced and in acute decompensated heart failure (HF). However, it is unclear whether high intravenous pressure can cause alterations in homeostasis by promoting inflammation and endothelial cell (EC) activation. We used an experimental model of acute, local venous hypertension to study the changes in circulating inflammatory mediators and EC phenotype that occur in response to biomechanical stress. Methods and Results: Twenty-four healthy subjects (14 men, age 352 years) were studied. Venous arm pressure was increased to ~30 mmHg above baseline level by inflating a tourniquet cuff around the dominant arm (test arm). Blood and endothelial cells (ECs) were sampled from test and control arm (lacking an inflated cuff) before and after 75 minutes of venous hypertension, using angiocatheters and endovascular wires. Magnetic beads coated with EC specific antibodies were used for EC separation; amplified mRNA was analyzed by Affymetrix HG-U133 2.0 Microarray. Plasma endothelin-1 (ET-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 2 (CXCL2) were significantly increased in the congested arm. 5,332 probe sets were differentially expressed in venous ECs before vs. after testing. Among the 143 probe sets that exhibited a significant absolute fold change >2, we identified several inflammatory mediators including ET-1, VCAM-1, and CXCL2. Conclusions: Acute experimental venous hypertension is sufficient to cause local increase in circulating inflammatory mediators and to activate venous ECs in healthy human subjects. Additional work is needed to determine the effect of venous hypertension in patients with established HF.
