Affymetrix Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array (hgu133a2)
Description
Although estrogen receptor (ER) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling are important for normal mammary development and breast cancer, cross-talk between these pathways, particularly at the level of gene transcription, remains poorly understood. We performed microarray analysis on MCF-7 breast cancer cells treated with estradiol (E2) or IGF-I for 3hr or 24hr. IGF-I regulated mRNA of 5-10-fold more genes than estradiol, and many genes were co-regulated by both ligands. Importantly, expression of these co-regulated genes correlated with poor prognosis of human breast cancer. Closer examination revealed enrichment of repressed transcripts. Interestingly, a number of potential tumor suppressors were down-regulated by IGF-I and estradiol. In fact, BLNK, one of the top repressed genes, is a potential growth suppressor in breast cancer cells. Analysis of three down-regulated genes showed that E2-mediated repression occurred independently of IGF-IR, and IGF-I-mediated repression occurred independently of ER. However, repression by IGF-I or estradiol required common downstream kinases. In conclusion, E2 and IGF-I co-regulate a set of genes that affect breast cancer outcome. There is enrichment of repressed transcripts, and the down-regulation is independent at the receptor level. This may be important clinically, as tumors with active ER and IGF-IR signaling may require co-targeting of both pathways.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Osteoclast (OC) differentiation undergoes a two-step process: commitment of hematopoietic progenitor cells to tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAcP) positive OC precursors (OCPs), and fusion of OCPs into multinucleated OCs. In order to identify transcriptional profiles of genes in the transitional phase between OC commitment and fusion in OCG, Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays were performed on total RNA extracted from mouse (SV129/BL6 ) monocytes and pre-osteoclasts (pre-OCs), primed with macrophage colony-stimulated factor (M-CSF) or M-CSF and soluble recombinant receptor activator of NF-B ligand (sRANKL), respectively. The analysis identified 656 RANKL-up or down-regulated in the early stage of osteoclastogenesis.

Description
Iron is essential for many cellular processes and is required by bacteria for replication. To acquire iron from the host, pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria secrete siderophores, including Enterobactin (Ent). However, Ent is bound by the host protein Lipocalin 2 (Lcn2), preventing bacterial reuptake of aferric or ferric Ent. In two experiments we treated A549 (lung cancer cell line) cells with Lcn2, Ent, and iron, alone and in combination. In experiment 1, biological duplicates of 4 conditions were used: PBS control, Lcn2, Lcn2+Ent, and Lcn2+Ent+iron. In experiment 2, 4 biological replicates of 4 conditions were used: PBS control, Ent, iron, and Ent+iron. Targets made from the samples were hybridized to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays to measure transcript abundances. The RMA algorithm was used to estimate transcript levels. Replicate samples were exchangeable, so we fit one-way ANOVA models to log2-transformed data separately to each experiment, and tested for pairwise differences between groups in each experiment, as well as asking if the Ent vs. PBS differences were larger or smaller than the Ent+iron vs. iron differences (Ent by iron interactions). We report results for 29096 probe-sets that were not annotated as positive or negative controls on the array. A supplementary Excel workbook is provided that contains the estimated expression level, some probe-set annotation, and simple statistical analysis for each probe-set. It may be convenient for some users, however obtaining newer probe-set annotation may be advisable.

Description
We treated 6-8 week old mice that had floxed alleles of both Apc and Pten (for both alleles in each case) that also carry an Ovgp1-iCre-ERT2 transgene, with one of two treatments; a third group received neither treatment. The Ovgp1-iCre-ERT2 expresses Cre recombinase fused to a tamoxifen-inducible fragment of the estrogen receptor, in tissues where the Ovgp1 gene (oviductal glycoprotein 1) is expressed, which is almost exclusively in mouse oviductal epithelium (equivalent to human fallopian tube epithelium = FTE). Treating the mice with tamoxifen permits the Cre recombinase to enter the cell nucleus and inactivate the Apc and Pten genes. Six of the mice were treated with intraperitoneal injection of tamoxifen (0.1g/kg of body weight) dissolved in corn oil on days 1 and 3 and developed oviductal tumors (OdT) yielding 6 of the samples. Four mice (yielding 5 samples) were instead injected with 50 million plaque-forming units of replication-incompetent AdCre into both ovarian bursal cavities on day 1, which inactivated Apc and Pten in the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE), and lead to ovarian tumors (OT). Ovaries were also harvested from four untreated 6-8 week old mice with the same genotype, with two ovaries from each mouse comprising one control sample. RNA was purified from tumor or normal tissue, and targets for Affymetrix arrays synthesized from the mRNAs. We used Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.1 ST arrays, which hold 41345 probe-sets, but we largely analyzed just those 25216 probe-sets that were mapped to Entrez gene IDs. Raw data was processed with Robust Multi-array Average algorithm (RMA). Data is log2-transformed transcript abundance estimates. We fit a one-way ANOVA model to the three groups of samples. We supply a supplementary excel workbook that holds the same data as the data matrix file, but also holds the probe-set annotation at the time we analyzed the data, and some simple statistical calculations, which select subsets of the probe-sets as differentially expressed. Consumers should consider obtaining more up-to-date probe-set annotation for the array platform. We also provide supplementary excel files that show our simple analysis of GSE6008, which consists of 99 human ovarian tumor samples of 4 types, and 4 normal ovary samples, where we fit an ANOVA model to the 5 groups. In yet another supplementary file we show the correlation between each human tumor and mouse tumor, where we correlate the difference in log2-transformed values of each tumor from the average of the normals for the same species, for just those genes that were 1-to-1 best homologs according to build 68 of NCBI's Homologene, in order to see how much the human tumors resemble the mouse tumors.

Description
In order to investigate genes regulated by Wnt/Beta-catenin-signaling in immortalized mouse adrenocortical cells, we treated a pair of ATCL7 cell cultures, one with BIO, a small molecule mimicking Wnt/Beta-catenin-signaling, the other with a control treatment. We repeated this 3 additional times resulting in 4 pairs of samples. The Wnt/beta-catenin pathway is not basally active in ATCL7 cells, nor do these cells appear to contain any mutations in the Wnt/Beta-catenin pathway. ATCL7 cells were grown under standard conditions at 37C in a humidified incubator containing 5% CO2. 250,000 ATCL7 cells per sample were treated with 0.5uM BIO (6-Bromoindirubin-3'-oxime) or 0.01% DMSO (v/v) for 24 hours, in DMEM:F12 growth media containing 100U/mL pencillin/streptomycin, 1X insulin-transferrin-selenium-X, 0.025% fetal bovine serum and 0.025% horse serum. Cells were harvested and RNA was extracted using an RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (Qiagen). Biotinylated cDNA were prepared according to the Ambion WT kit protocol from 250 ng total RNA (GeneAtlas WT Expression Kit User Manual P/N 702935 Rev. 3). We assayed the targets with Affymetrix Mouse Gene ST 1.1 strip arrays. We modeled the data using paired T-tests for each probe-set. We also supply a supplementary file holding the data and some statistical analysis, as well as probe-set annotation that we used at that time (users may wish to obtain new annotation though). We analyzed only 28944 probe-sets with category "main", "---", and "flmrna->unmapped" according to Affymetrix annotation.

Description
We sought to determine which gene transcripts are enriched in Wnt-responsive adrenocortical mouse cells compared to the entire adrenocortical mouse cell population in vivo. To this end, we employed transgenic reporter mice that label Wnt-responsive cells with GFP expression (TCF/Lef:H2B-GFP mice) or label all adrenocortical cells with GFP expression (Sf1:eGFP mice). GFP-positive adrenocortical cells were obtained from 6-week-old male TCF/Lef:H2B-GFP mice and Sf1:eGFP mice independently. 10 adrenals per genotype per sort were minced and digested by incubation in DMEM:F12 containing 0.1% collagenase/ 0.01% DNaseI solution for 1 h at 37C. A single cell suspension was obtained following mechanical dispersion, filtration through a 40 micron nylon cell strainer, centrifugation at 1500rpm for 5 min followed by re-suspension in sterile 1X PBS containing 10% cosmic calf serum and 10g/mL Propidium iodide. 10,000-50,000 viable GFP-positive cells were isolated via FACS using a BD FACSAria III cell sorter. RNA was extracted using an RNeasy Micro Kit (Qiagen) from 4 independent sorts per genotype. cDNA were prepared according to the NuGen WT-Pico V2 kit protocol from 5 ng total RNA (Ovation PicoSL WTA System V2 P/N 3312). Biotinylated single-stranded cDNA were prepared from 3ug of cDNA (Encore Biotin Module P/N 4200-12, 4200-60, 4200-A01). Targets were assayed on the Mouse Gene ST 1.1 strip arrays using the Affymetrix Gene Atlas system (software version 1.0.4.267). One TCF/Lef:H2B-GFP array was deemed low-quality and discarded. Two-sample T-tests were used to compare the two groups of samples. We also supply a supplementary file holding the data and some statistical analysis, as well as probe-set annotation that we used at that time (users may wish to obtain new annotation though). We analyzed only 28944 probe-sets with category "main", "---", and "flmrna->unmapped" according to Affymetrix annotation.
