Description
The nuclear exosome performs critical functions in non-coding RNA processing, and in diverse surveillance functions including the quality control of mRNP formation, and in the removal of pervasive transcripts. Most non-coding RNAs and pervasive nascent transcripts are targeted by the Nrd1p-Nab3p-Sen1p (NNS) complex to terminate Pol II transcription coupled to nuclear exosome degradation or 3´-end trimming. Prior to nuclear exosome activity, the Trf4p-Air2p-Mtr4p polyadenylation complex adds an oligo-A tail to exosome substrates. Inactivating exosome activity stabilizes and lengthens these A-tails. We utilized high-throughput 3´-end poly(A)+ sequencing to identify at nucleotide resolution the 3´ ends targeted by the nuclear exosome, and determine the sites of NNS-dependent termination genome-wide. Overall design: 3´-end mapping of wild-type and various nuclear exosome mutant strains, either using gene knockouts or the anchor away system to conditionally deplete FRB-tagged proteins from the nucleus

Description
We report the effects of Rapamycin treatment on the transcriptome of normal human dermal fibroblasts isolated from foreskin (designated 2DD). We sequenced mRNA from 2 replicates of proliferative (PRO) quiescent (QUI, serum starved) or treated with 500nM Rapamycin for 5 days (RAP). Comparative analyses with PRO transcripts a baseline indicate that genes that changed expression from Rapamycin treated fibroblasts are significantly different from those of quiescence cells. Rapamycin treated cells showed a significant enrichment for cytokines from the Il-6 cascade. Overall design: Examination of mRNAs from proliferative, quiescent (serum starvation) and Rapamycin (5oonM, 5days) treated 2DD normal human dermal/foreskin fibroblasts.

Description
The incidence and mortality rates of prostate cancer are significantly higher in African-American men when compared to European-American men. We tested the hypothesis that differences in tumor biology contribute to this survival health disparity. Using microarray technology, we obtained gene expression profiles of primary prostate tumors resected from 33 African-American and 36 European-American patients. These tumors were matched on clinical parameters. We also evaluated 18 non-tumor prostate tissues from 7 African-American and 11 European-American patients. The resulting datasets were analyzed for expression differences on the gene and pathway level comparing African-American with European-American patients. Our analysis revealed a significant number of genes, e.g., 162 transcripts at a false-discovery rate less than 5%, to be differently expressed between African-American and European-American patients. Using a disease association analysis, we identified a common relationship of these transcripts with autoimmunity and inflammation. These findings were corroborated on the pathway level with numerous differently expressed genes clustering in immune response, stress response, cytokine signaling, and chemotaxis pathways. Furthermore, a two-gene tumor signature was identified that accurately differentiated between African-American and European-American patients. This finding was confirmed in a blinded analysis of a second sample set. In conclusion, the gene expression profiles of prostate tumors indicate prominent differences in tumor immunobiology between African-American and European-American men. The profiles portray the existence of a distinct tumor microenvironment in these two patient groups.

Description
Ancestral environmental exposures that promote epigenetic transgenerational inheritance influence all aspects of an individuals life history. Stress experienced during adolescence can affect adult physiological and behavioural phenotypes. The current study utilized a systems biology approach to investigate the interactions of these two forms of epigenetic modification, one carried in the germline transgenerationally and the other contained in the context of life history. A transgenerational epigenetic imprint left by the fungicide vinclozolin promoted regional specific brain gene networks that influenced chronic restraint stress responses to alter adult physiological, brain and behavioural phenotypes. The environmentally-induced epigenetic transgenerational inheritance was found to interact with early life stress response to impact the adult brain genome activity to bring the phenotype into being.

Description
Cell transformation by the Src tyrosine kinase is characterized by extensive changes in gene expression. To describe these changes, investigators have relied extensively on the study of immortalized rodent cell lines or heterogeneous tumor samples that limit the identification of differentially expressed genes or may not represent the full spectrum of biological processes regulated during transformation. In this study, we took advantage of transformation-deficient and temperature sensitive mutants of the Rous sarcoma virus to characterize the patterns of gene expression in two types of primary cells, namely chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) and chicken neuro-retinal (CNR) cells.

Description
The goal of this study was to investigate and correlate differential methylation and expression in cells from the target organ in non-infectious granulomatous lung diseases, specifically sarcoidosis and chronic beryllium disease (CBD). To that end, cells were collected from patients via bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), and extracted nucleic acids were hybridized to genome-wide arrays.

Description
With the aim of identifying new pathways and genes regulated by PTH(1-34) and PTH-related protein 1-141 [PTHrP(1-141)] in osteoblasts, this study was carried out using a mouse marrow stromal cell line, Kusa 4b10, that acquires features of the osteoblastic phenotype in long-term culture conditions. After the appearance of functional PTH receptor 1 (PTHR1) in Kusa 4b10 cells, they were treated with either PTH(1-34) or PTHrP(1-141), and RNA was subjected to Affymetrix whole mouse genome array.

Description
Development requires the cooperation of tissue-specific and ubiquitously expressed transcription factors, such as Sp-family members. However, the molecular details of how ubiquitous factors participate in developmental processes are still unclear. We previously showed that during the differentiation of embryonic stem cells lacking Sp1 DNA binding activity (Sp1deltaDBD/deltaDBD cells), early blood progenitors are formed. However, gene expression during differentiation becomes progressively deregulated and terminal differentiation is severely compromised. Here we studied the cooperation of Sp1 and its closest paralogue Sp3 in hematopoietic development and demonstrate that Sp1 and Sp3 binding sites largely overlap. Sp3 cooperates with Sp1deltaDBD/deltaDBD but is unable to support hematopoiesis in the complete absence of Sp1. Using single cell gene expression analysis, we show that the lack of Sp1 DNA binding leads to a distortion of cell fate decision timing, indicating that stable chromatin bi nding of Sp1 is required to maintain robust differentiation trajectories. Overall design: RNA-Seq in ESC, Flk, HE1, HE2 and progenitor cells with WT, Sp1deltaDBD or Sp3KO
