Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Exposure to PFOA during gestation altered the expression of genes related to fatty acid catabolism in both the fetal liver and lung. In the fetal liver, the effects of PFOA were robust and also included genes associated with lipid transport, ketogenesis, glucose metabolism, lipoprotein metabolism, cholesterol biosynthesis, steroid metabolism, bile acid biosynthesis, phospholipid metabolism, retinol metabolism, proteosome activation, and inflammation. These changes are consistent with activation of PPAR alpha. Non-PPAR alpha related changes were suggested as well.

Description
Background: Prostate cancer (PC), a complex disease, can be relatively harmless or extremely aggressive. To identify candidate genes involved in causal pathways of aggressive PC, we implemented a systems biology approach by combining differential expression analysis and co-expression network analysis to evaluate transcriptional profiles using lymphoblastoid cell lines from 62 PC patients with aggressive phenotype (Gleason grade > 8) and 63 PC patients with nonaggressive phenotype (Gleason grade < 5). From 13935 mRNA genes and 273 microRNAs tested, we identified significant differences in 1100 mRNAs and 7 microRNAs with false discovery rate < 0.01. We also identified a co-expression module demonstrating significant association with the aggressive phenotype of PC (p=3.67x10-11). The module of interest was characterized by over-representation of cell cycle-related genes (false discovery rate = 3.50x10-50). From this module, we further defined 20 hub genes that were highly connected to other genes. Interestingly, five of the 7 differentially expressed microRNAs have been implicated in cell cycle regulation and two (miR-145 and miR-331-3p) are predicted to target three of the 20 hub genes. Ectopic expression of these two microRNAs reduced expression of target hub genes and subsequently resulted in cell growth inhibition and apoptosis. These results suggest that cell cycle is likely to be a molecular pathway causing aggressive phenotype of PC. Further characterization of cell cycle-related genes (particularly, the hub genes) and miRNAs that regulate these hub genes could facilitate identification of candidate genes responsible for the aggressive phenotype and lead to a better understanding of PC etiology and progression [Cancer Res 2009;69(24):94907].

Description
Background: Human papillomavirus has been shown to have a causal role in the development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and represents a distinct and well-defined pathology. While HPV-positive HNSCC is associated with a better response to treatment and prognosis, a subset of patients do not respond favorably to current standard of care thus suffering unnecessary morbidity and delay to receive effective therapy.

Description
A non-controversial and non-invasive source of adult stem cells (ASCs), particularly hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is human umbilical cord blood. HSCs derived from cord blood have been used for treating leukemia and other blood disorders for the last 30 years. While the presence of MSCs in cord blood is limited, umbilical cord has been found to be promising source of MSCs. However, the cord is an anatomically complex organ and potential isolation of MSCs from its various parts has not been fully explored.

Description
Patients undergoing either partial or radical nephrectomy at William Beaumont Hospital (Royal Oak, MI) were consented prior to surgery with local IRB oversight. Samples were collected at time of surgery and stored at -80C according to CAP (College of American Pathologist)-accredited standard operating procedures. Disease pathology of frozen samples was validated with hematoxylin and eosin stained tissue sections from adjacently collected formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue.

Description
Background: Expression level of many genes shows abundant natural variation in human populations. The variations in gene expression are believed to contribute to phenotypic differences. Emerging evidence has shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are one of the key regulators of gene expression. However, past studies have focused on the miRNA target genes and use loss- or gain-of-function approach that may not reflect natural association between miRNA and mRNAs. Methodology/Principal Findings: To examine miRNA regulatory effect on global gene expression under endogenous condition, we performed pair-wise correlation coefficient analysis on expression levels of 366 miRNAs and 14,174 messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in 90 immortalized lymphoblastoid cell lines, and observed significant correlations between the two species of RNA transcripts. We identified a total of 7,207 significantly correlated miRNA-mRNA pairs (false discovery rate q <0.01). Of those, 4,085 pairs showed positive correlations while 3,122 pairs showed negative correlations. Gene ontology analyses on the miRNA-correlated genes revealed significant enrichments in several biological pathways related to cell cycle, cell communication and signal transduction. Individually, each of three miRNAs (miR-331, -98 and -33b) demonstrated significant correlation with the genes in cell cycle-related biological processes, which is consistent with important role of miRNAs in cell cycle regulation. Surprisingly, most miRNA-correlated genes were not direct targets predicted by mRNA target prediction program, TargetScan, suggesting indirect endogenous relationship between miRNAs and their correlated mRNAs. Conclusions/Significance: This study demonstrates feasibility of using naturally expressed transcript profiles to identify endogenous correlation between miRNA and miRNA. By applying this genome-wide approach, we have identified thousands of miRNA-correlated genes and revealed potential role of miRNAs in several important cellular functions. The study results along with accompanying data sets will provide a wealth of high-throughput data to further evaluate the miRNA-regulated genes and eventually in phenotypic variations of human populations.
