Affymetrix Poplar Genome Array (poplar)
Description
affy_popsec_nancy_roots_poplar - This project aims to identify genes of interest for water deficit acclimation and/or adaptation in a tree species: poplar. We look for genes and gene expression networks related to drought stress. We intend to analyse the transcriptome in root apices, in two genotypes, Carpaccio and Soligo, at various stages and intensities of stress. Root apex is the location of root elongation and these analyses intend to identify genes involved in the control of cell expansion and thus of root elongation. Indeed, root growth maintenance in response to water shortage contributes to plant tolerance to water deficit. The comparison between medium and severe stress intensities and between early and long term stresses will power the selection of genes of interest. The co-analysis of two genotypes of contrasted tolerance to water deficit should help to better discriminate genes presenting a potential adaptative character from genes responding passively to the constraint.-Two poplar clones, Soligo (S) and Carpacio (C) were submitted to 4 treatments: control, mild water deficit, moderate water deficit (12-day long for both) and early-drought stress (about 36-h long). Growth and physiology was characterised on a batch of plants and samples collected on another batch of plants. Four to eight root apices (1cm-long) were collected on each individual tree. Total RNAs were extracted from all roots for each tree individually. Two pools of 3 (or 2) individuals were made using equimolar ratio. A pool is considered as one biological replicate and corresponds to one Affymetrix slide. The two biological replicates originate from the same experiment.

Description
affy_genomic_poplar - affy_genomic_poplar - The project aims to identify genes of interest for water deficit acclimation in poplar. We look for genes and gene expression networks related to drought stress in two hybrid cultivars, differing in their drought tolerance in field. Affymetrix poplar genome array was designed on several Populus species. In order to deal with comparative approaches, we checked the convenience of the array by hybridizing genomic DNA of the two hybrid cultivars (Populus deltoides Populus nigra, namely cv Carpaccio and cv Soligo). This point is important as transcript sequence might have diverged in the two genomes (Fossati et al, 2005), which could lead to absence of hybridization without physiological meaning. -Two poplar cultivars, Soligo (S) and Carpacio (C) were grown in controlled conditions. Mature leaves were collected and genomic DNA was extracted from leaves in CTAB buffer. gDNA was fragmented with DNAse1. DNA fragments were labelled with Biotin N6-ddATP and hybridized on Affymetrix poplar genome array. Two technical replicates per genotype were performed.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Mitochondria are centers of metabolism and signaling whose content and function must adapt to changing cellular environments. The biological signals that initiate mitochondrial restructuring and the cellular processes that drive this adaptive response are largely obscure. To better define these systems, we performed matched quantitative genomic and proteomic analyses of mouse muscle cells as they performed mitochondrial biogenesis. We find that proteins involved in cellular iron homeostasis are highly coordinated with this process, and that depletion of cellular iron results in a rapid, dose-dependent decrease of select mitochondrial protein levels and oxidative capacity. We further show that this process is universal across a broad range of cell types and fully reversed when iron is reintroduced. Collectively, our work reveals that cellular iron is a key regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, and provides quantitative datasets that can be leveraged to explore post-transcriptional and post-translational processes that are essential for mitochondrial adaptation.

Complementary RNA and protein profiling identifies iron as a key regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis.

- Affymetrix Maize Genome Array (maize)
Description
affy_ccr_maize - affy_ccr_maize - Cinnamoyl-CoA reductase (CCR) catalyzes a key step in monolignol biosynthesis. We show that downregulation of CCR in maize was associated with lower lignin content and a strong decrease in H units. Concomitantly, these cell wall modifications were associated with higher digestibility. On another hand, immunocytochemistry indicated a modification of lignification pattern and cellulose content. Transcript profiling was used as comprehensive phenotyping tools to investigate how CCR downregulation impacted metabolism and the biosynthesis of other cell wall polymers. -2 wild type and 2 CCR mutants were compared. Plants were grown in greenhouse condition and harvested at 7-8 leaf stages.

Description
The therapeutic potential of pro-resolution factors in determining the outcome of inflammatory events has gained ground over the past decade. However, the attention has been focused on the non-genomic effects of these endogenous, anti-inflammatory substances. In this study, we have focused our attention on identifying specific annexin 1 (AnxA1) protein/ALX receptor mediated gene activation, in an effort to identify down-stream genomic targets of this well-known, glucocorticoid induced, pro-resolution factor.

Description
Malignant melanoma is a complex genetic disease and the most aggressive form of skin cancer. Melanoma progression and metastatic dissemination fundamentally relies on the process of angiogenesis. Melanomas produce an array of angiogenic modulators that mediate pathological angiogenesis. Such tumor-associated modulators arbitrate the enhanced proliferative, survival and migratory responses exhibited by endothelial cells, in the hypoxic tumor environment. The current study focuses on melanoma-induced survival of endothelial cells under hypoxic conditions. Melanoma conditioned media were capable of enabling prolonged endothelial cell survival under hypoxia, in contrast with the conditioned media derived from melanocytes, breast and pancreatic tumors. To identify the global changes in gene expression and further characterize the pro-survival pathway induced in endothelial cells, we performed microarray analysis on endothelial cells treated with melanoma conditioned medium under normoxic and hypoxic conditions.

- Affymetrix Rat Gene 2.0 ST Array (ragene20st)
Description
Complement inhibitor C4b-binding protein (C4BP) is synthesized in liver and pancreas and composed of 7 identical alpha chains and one unique beta chain. We showed previously that C4BP binds islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) and affects fibril formation in vitro. Now we found that polymeric C4BP inhibited lysis of human erythrocytes incubated with monomeric IAPP while no erythrocyte lysis was observed after incubation with preformed IAPP fibrils. In contrast, monomeric alpha chain of C4BP had significantly reduced activity. Further, addition of monomeric IAPP to a rat insulinoma cell line (INS-1) resulted in decreased cell viability, which was restored in the presence of physiological concentrations of C4BP. Accordingly, addition of C4BP rescued the ability of INS-1 cells and isolated rat islets to respond to glucose stimulation with insulin secretion, which was impaired in the presence of IAPP alone. C4BP was internalized together with IAPP into INS-1 cells and therefore we aimed to study its effect on gene expression. Pathway analyses of mRNA expression microarray data indicated that cells exposed to C4BP and IAPP in comparison to IAPP alone increased expression of genes involved in cholesterol synthesis. Depletion of cholesterol through methyl--cyclodextrin or cholesterol oxidase abolished the protective effect of C4BP on IAPP cytotoxicity of INS-1 cells. Also, inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinase but not NF-B had a similar effect. Taken together, one of the mechanisms by which C4BP protects beta-cells from IAPP cytotoxicity is by enhancing cholesterol synthesis.
