Description
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by massive neurodegeneration and multiple changes in cellular processes, including neurogenesis. Proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) plays a central role in AD. Due to varying APP processing, several beta-amyloid peptides are generated. In contrast to the form with 40 amino acids, the variant with 42 amino acids is thought to be the pathogenic form triggering the pathophysiological cascade in AD. Here, we studied the transcriptomic response to increased or decreased Abeta42 levels generated in human neuroblastoma cells. Genome-wide expression profiles (Affymetrix)were used to analyze the cellular response to the changed Abeta42 and Abeta40-levels. <br></br><br></br>Human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y is a thrice cloned (SK-N-SH -> SH-SY -> SH-SY5 -> SH-SY5Y) subline of the neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-SH which was isolated and established in 1970. This cell line has 47 chromosomes. The cells possess a unique marker comprised of a chromosome 1 with a complex insertion of an additional copy of a 1q segment into the long arm, resulting in trisomy of 1q. The cell lines used in this study are SHSY5Y transfected with the constructs pCEP-C99I45F, pCEP-C99V50F, pCEP-C99 wildtype or mock transfected with an empty vector. Independent cell clones of each transfected line were used to provide biological replicates.<br></br> Overexpressed C99 I45F is intracellularly cleaved resulting in high Abeta42, but low Abeta40 levels.<br></br> Overexpressed C99V50F is intracellularly cleaved resulting in low Abeta42, but high Abeta40 levels.<br></br>Overexpressed C99 wildtype is intracellularly cleaved resulting in medium Abeta42 and Abeta40 levels<br></br>Mock is the SHSY5Y cell line transfected with the empty vector pCEP (Invitrogen) as a negative control

Description
Calyx of Held giant presynaptic terminals in the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body of the auditory brainstem form axosomatic synapses that have advanced to one of the best-studied synaptic system of the mammalian brain. As the auditory system matures and adjusts to high fidelity synaptic transmission, the calyx undergoes extensive structural and functional changes: it is formed around postnatal day 3 (P3), achieves immature function until hearing onset around P10 and can be considered mature from P21 onwards. This setting provides the unique opportunity to examine the repertoire of genes driving synaptic structure and function.

Description
Failures to produce neutralizing antibodies upon HIV-1 infection result in part from B cell dysfunction due to unspecific B cell activation. How HIV-1 affects antigen-specific B cell functions remains elusive. Using an adoptive transfer mouse model and ex vivo HIV infection of human tonsil tissue we found that expression of the HIV-1 pathogenesis factor NEF in CD4 T cells undermines their helper function and impairs cognate B cell functions including mounting of efficient specific IgG responses. NEF interfered with T cell help via a specific protein interaction motif that prevents polarized cytokine secretion at the T cell - B cell immune synapse. This interference reduced B cell activation and proliferation and thus disrupted germinal center formation and affinity maturation. These results identify NEF as a key component for HIV-mediated dysfunction of antigen-specific B cells. Therapeutic targeting of the identified molecular surface in NEF will facilitate host control of HIV infection.

This study tested the hypothesis that mRNA expression profiles change in the muscular type rat saphenous artery during early postnatal development. To explore this, we performed mRNA microarray analysis on muscular type saphenous arteries of young (10-12 days) and adult (2-3 months) rats.

Description
All major types of interferon (IFN) efficiently inhibit hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication in vitro and in vivo. Remarkably, HCV replication is not sensitive to IFN in the hepatoma cell line Huh6, despite an intact signaling pathway. We performed transcriptome analyses between Huh6 and Huh-7 to identify effector genes of the IFN response and thereby identified the DExD/H box helicase DDX60L as a restriction factor of HCV replication. DDX60L and its homolog DDX60 were both induced upon viral infection and IFN treatment in primary human hepatocytes. However, exclusively DDX60L knockdown increased HCV replication in Huh-7 cells, and rescued HCV replication from type II IFN as well as type I and III IFN treatment, suggesting that DDX60L is an important effector protein of the innate immune response against HCV. DDX60L had no impact on replication of hepatitis A virus (HAV), but severely impaired production of lentiviral vectors, arguing for a potential antiretroviral activity. Detection of endogenous DDX60L protein turned out to be difficult due to instability. DDX60L knockdown did not alter interferon stimulated gene (ISG) induction after IFN treatment, suggesting that it is a direct effector of the innate immune response. It most likely inhibits viral RNA replication, since we found no impact of DDX60L on translation or stability of HCV subgenomic replicons, nor additional impact on entry and assembly of infectious virus. Similar to its homolog DDX60, DDX60L had a moderate impact on retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-dependent activation of innate immunity arguing for additional functions in the sensing of viral RNA.

Description
Neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes (NRVCMs) were stretched biaxially (112%/24h) or stimulated with phenylephrine (PE, 50 uM), both resulting in a similar degree of hypertrophy. Unstretched NRVCMs served as negative control. Affymetrix microarray analysis revealed 164 genes more than 2.0-fold up- and 21 genes less than 0.5-fold downregulated (p<0.01). Differential expression was confirmed by real-time PCR. Several genes of the fetal gene program, i.e. BNP (4.2-fold, all p<0.05) were induced by stretch as well as PE. We also verified the upregulation of known stretch-responsive genes, including HSP70 (20.9x) and c-myc (3.0x). Moreover, we identified genes exclusively induced by stretch, such as the cardioprotective and antihypertrophic cytokine GDF15 (24.8x) and the antihypertrophic factor heme oxygenase 1 (Hmox1, 10.8x; both confirmed on protein level). Of note, neither PE nor endothelin-1 were able to upregulate GDF15 and Hmox1, while angiotensin II significantly induced both genes. Conversely, addition of the AT1 receptor blocker irbesartan markedly blunted stretch-mediated GDF15 and Hmox1 induction, suggesting that the angiotensin II receptor mediates stretch-dependent signals.
