Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Anagrelide is a cytoreductive agent used to lower platelet counts in essential thrombocythemia. Although the drug is known to selectively inhibit megakaryopoiesis, the molecular mechanism accounting for this activity has not been elucidated.
Publication Title
The gene expression signature of anagrelide provides an insight into its mechanism of action and uncovers new regulators of megakaryopoiesis.

Description
The Rad23/Rad4 protein complex plays a major role in DNA damage recognition during nucleotide excision repair (NER) in yeast. We recently showed that two distinct pathways contribute to efficient NER in yeast. The first operates independently of de novo protein synthesis and requires a nonproteolytic function of the 19S regulatory complex of the 26S proteasome and Rad23. The second pathway requires de novo protein synthesis, and relies on the activity of a newly identified Rad7-containing E3 ubiquitin ligase that ubiquitinates Rad4 in response to UV. Surprisingly, we found that cells deleted of either Rad23 or Rad4 caused reduced Rad4 and Rad23 mRNA levels respectively. We considered the possibility of an unexpected role of Rad23 and Rad4 in regulating the expression of genes involved in the transcriptional response to DNA damage. Gene expression profiling has suggested that Rad23 and Rad4 may function as a complex to affect transcription of a small subset of genes in response to UV damage. To determine how Rad4 and Rad23 contribute to the regulation of these genes, we have examined the occupancy of Rad4/Rad23 in their promoter regions by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), both in the presence and absence of UV damage. Our preliminary ChIP data suggests that the Rad4/Rad23 complex regulates a set of genes in response to UV light. We also proposed that the transcriptional regulatory activity of the Rad4-Rad23 complex required Rad4 ubiquitination. These arrays test this theory using the psocs mutant strain, which is unable to facilitate Rad4 ubiquitination after UV irradiation.

Description
Previous work has suggested that the imprinted gene Phlda2 regulates the signalling function of the placenta by modulating the size of the endocrine compartment. This study investigated the affect that Phlda2 mutant placenta has upon the brains of the wildtype dams carrying different placenta and consequently offspring.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
We have performed a comprehensive transcriptional analysis of specific monocyte and macrophage (M) subsets during an acute self-resolving inflammatory insult. Following initial induction of acute inflammation, tissue resident (Resident) M are rapidly cleared from the inflammatory foci, only becoming recoverable as inflammation resolves. Monocytes are recruited to the inflammatory lesion where they differentiate into M. We term these monocyte-derived M inflammation-associated to distinguish them from Resident M which are present throughout the inflammatory response and can renew during the resolution of inflammation by proliferation. Comparative analysis of the Mo and M populations (both inflammation-associated and Resident M) identifies select genes expressed in subsets of inflammation-associated and Resident M that play important roles in the resolution of inflammation and/or for immunity, including molecules involved in antigen presentation, cell cycle and others associated with immaturity and M activation.

Description
Gata factors are amongst the genes expressed early on in the process of cardiogenesis. We used microarrays to examine the immediate early targets of Gata4 and Gata5 in the Xenopus leavis animal cap cardiogenesis model. We hope to use these data to examine the roles of Gata4 and Gata5 in cardiogenesis and also to begin to dissect out the common and distinct targets of Gata4 and Gata5.

- Affymetrix Drosophila Genome Array (drosgenome1)
Description
The conserved Mef2 transcription factor is a major regulator of gene expression and differentiation. Recent genomic studies have identified a large number of mef2-regulated target genes with distinct temporal expression profiles during Drosophila myogenesis. However, the question remains as to how a single transcription factor can control such diverse patterns of gene expression. The aim of this project was to investigate whether there are genes with different mef2-requirements for their expression during muscle differentiation in vivo during the development of Drosophila melanogaster.

mef2 activity levels differentially affect gene expression during Drosophila muscle development.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
Adult rats (male Lister hooded) received a single unsignaled scrambled footshock (0.5 mA for 2 s) 2 min into a 3min exposure to a novel context. One half rats received bilateral microinfusions (1 microlitre/hemisphere) of 2 nmol/microlitre BDNF antisense ODN (BDNFASO, 5-TCTTCCCCTTTTAATGGT-3 in PBS, pH 7.4) or BDNF missense ODN (BDNFMSO, 5 -ATACTTTCTGTTCTTGCC-3 in PBS, pH 7.4) into the dorsal hippocampus (AP -3.50, relative to bregma), 90 min before contextual fear conditioning (CFC). Infusions were made in awake rats via previously surgically implanted indwelling stainless steel cannula. Rats were housed in the home cages at all times outside the conditioning procedure. Rats were killed by CO2 inhalation 2 hours after CFC. CA1 enriched dorsal hippocampus was immediately dissected on ice before rapid freezing and storage at -80oC. The BDNFASO-infused group represent consolidation-impaired rats.
