Description
Loss of function mutations in the SCN9a gene encoding voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.7 cause congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) and anosmia in otherwise normal humans and mice, suggesting that this channel may be a good analgesic drug target. Surprisingly, potent selective antagonists of Nav1.7 are weak analgesics. We therefore investigated whether Nav1.7 , as well as contributing to electrical signalling may have an additional function. Here we report that Nav1.7 deletion has profound effects on the sensory neuron transcriptome, leading to dysregulation of a number of transcription factors as well as upregulation of enkephalin precursor PENK mRNA and down regulation of CEACAM10 mRNA, a protein involved in noxious thermosensation. PENK mRNA is transcriptionally upregulated in Nav1.7 null mutant female sensory neurons, resulting in increased enkephalin expression in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. PENK expression is down-regulated by addition of the sodium ionophore monensin, suggesting that sodium may play a role as a second messenger. Application of the opioid antagonist naloxone strongly enhances noxious peripheral input into the spinal cord, and dramatically reduces analgesia in both male and female Nav1.7 null mutant mice, as well as in human Nav1.7 null mutants. These data show that loss of Nav1.7 expression increases opioid drive over the lifetime of mice and humans. They further suggest that Nav1.7 channel blockers alone may not replicate the phenotype of null mutant humans and mice, but should be potentiated with exogenous opioids.

- Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST Array (ragene10st)
Description
Myocardial infarction (MI) often results in left ventricular (LV) remodeling followed by heart failure (HF). It is of great clinical importance to understand the molecular mechanisms that trigger transition from compensated LV injury to HF and to identify relevant diagnostic biomarkers. In this study, we performed transcriptional profiling of LVs in rats with a wide range of experimentally induced infarct sizes and of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in animals that developed HF.

- Affymetrix Mouse Expression 430A Array (moe430a), Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
3 subtypes of cortical projection neurons were purified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) at 4 different stages of development from mouse cortex. A detailed description of the data set is described in Arlotta, P et al (2005) and Molyneaux, BJ et al (2009). The hybridization cocktails used here were originally applied to the Affymetrix mouse 430A arrays and submitted as GEO accession number GSE2039. The same hybridization cocktails were then applied to the Affymetrix mouse 430 2.0 arrays, and those data are contained in this series.

Illumina Genome Analyzer II
Description
We use mRNA-seq to transcriptionally profile larval salivary gland tissue from Drosophila third instar larvae. These data provide insights into tissue physiology and can be used to identify tissue specific transcripts. Overall design: Salivary glands were dissected from 200 wandering third instar larvae and the associated fat body was removed.Salivary glands were transferred to Graces unsupplemented medium on ice prior to RNA extraction with TRIzol reagent. mRNA-seq samples were prepared from 10 ug of total RNA and subject to Illumina based sequencing.

Description
We use DSN normalized RNA-seq to transcriptionally profile FACS sorted 16C ovarian follicle cells. These data provide insights into the developmental control of gene expression programmed gene amplificaton. Overall design: Follicle cells were isolated from whole ovaries by trypsinization and filtering and stained with Hoescht. 16C follicle cells were isolated by FACS sorting based on DNA content (Hoescht). RNA was extracted with TRIzol reagent and 100ng of total RNA and used to generate a total library. This library was then subjected to DSN normalization prior to Illumina based sequencing.

Description
Glaucoma is a common ocular disorder that is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. It is characterized by the dysfunction and loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Although many studies have implicated various molecules in glaucoma, no mechanism has been shown to be responsible for the earliest detectable damage to RGCs and their axons in the optic nerve. Here, we show that the leukocyte transendothelial migration pathway is activated in the optic nerve head at the earliest stages of disease in an inherited mouse model of glaucoma. This resulted in proinflammatory monocytes entering the optic nerve prior to detectable neuronal damage. A 1-time x-ray treatment prevented monocyte entry and subsequent glaucomatous damage. A single x-ray treatment of an individual eye in young mice provided that eye with long-term protection from glaucoma but had no effect on the contralateral eye. Localized radiation treatment prevented detectable neuronal damage and dysfunction in treated eyes, despite the continued presence of other glaucomatous stresses and signaling pathways. Injection of endothelin-2, a damaging mediator produced by the monocytes, into irradiated eyes, combined with the other glaucomatous stresses, restored neural damage with a topography characteristic of glaucoma. Together, these data support a model of glaucomatous damage involving monocyte entry into the optic nerve. Genome-wide assessment of gene expression changes was performed in DBA/2J-Gpnmb+, DBA/2J mice and irradiated DBA/2J mice at 8.5 and 10.5 months of age.

Description
Metastasis-initiating cells dynamically adapt to the distinct microenvironments of different organs, but these early adaptations are poorly understood due to the limited sensitivity of in situ transcriptomics. We developed fluorouracil-labeled RNA sequencing (Flura-seq) for in situ analysis with unprecedented sensitivity. Flura-seq utilizes cytosine deaminase (CD) to convert fluorocytosine to fluorouracil, covalently labeling nascent RNA for purification and sequencing. Flura-seq revealed that breast cancer micrometastases in lung and brain exhibit unique, reversible gene signatures depending on the microenvironment. Specifically, the mitochondrial electron transport Complex I and the NRF2-driven antioxidant programs were induced in oxygen-rich pulmonary micrometastases, compared to mammary tumors or brain micrometastases. Loss of Complex I activity, and antioxidant supplementation potentiated pulmonary metastatic growth. We confirm lung metastasis-specific NRF2 overexpression in clinical samples, thus validating Flura-seq's utility in identifying clinically actionable microenvironmental adaptations in early metastasis. The sensitivity, robustness and economy of Flura-seq are broadly applicable beyond cancer research. Overall design: Examination of 5-FU labeled RNAs in cancer cells present in different organs
