Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Plasticity between adhesive and less-adhesive states is important for mammalian cell behaviour. To investigate adhesion plasticity, we have selected a stable isogenic subpopulation of MDA-MB-468 breast carcinoma cells which grows in suspension. These suspension cells are unable to re-adhere to various matrices or to contract three-dimensional collagen lattices.

Description
The bHLH transcription factor stem cell leukemia gene (Scl) is a master regulator for hematopoiesis essential for hematopoietic specification and proper differentiation of the erythroid and megakaryocyte lineages. However, the critical downstream targets of Scl remain undefined. Here, we identified a novel Scl target gene, transcription factor myocyte enhancer factor 2 C (Mef2C) from Sclfl/fl fetal liver progenitor cell lines. Analysis of Mef2C-/- embryos showed that Mef2C, in contrast to Scl, is not essential for specification into primitive or definitive hematopoietic lineages. However, adult VavCre+Mef2Cfl/fl mice exhibited platelet defects similar to those observed in Scl deficient mice. The platelet counts were reduced, while platelet size was increased and the platelet shape and granularity was altered. Furthermore, megakaryopoiesis was severely impaired in vitro. ChIP-on-chip analysis revealed that Mef2C is directly regulated by Scl in megakaryocytic cells, but not in erythroid cells. In addition, an Scl independent requirement for Mef2C in B-lymphoid homeostasis was observed in Mef2C-deficient mice, characterized as severe age-dependent reduction of specific B cell progenitor populations reminiscent of premature aging. In summary, this work identifies Mef2C as an integral member of hematopoietic transcription factors with distinct upstream regulatory mechanisms and functional requirements in megakaryocyte and B-lymphoid lineages.

Description
Sub-clinical acute rejection (subAR) in kidney transplant recipients (KTR) leads to chronic rejection and graft loss. Non-invasive biomarkers are needed to detect subAR. 307 KTR were enrolled into a multi-center observational study. Precise clinical phenotypes (CP) were used to define subAR. Differential gene expression (DGE) data from peripheral blood samples paired with surveillance biopsies were used to train a Random Forests (RF) model to develop a gene expression profile (GEP) for subAR. A separate cohort of paired samples was used to validate the GEP. Clinical endpoints and gene pathway mapping were used to assess clinical validity and biologic relevance. DGE data from 530 samples (130 subAR) collected from 250 KTR yielded a RF model: AUC 0.85; 0.84 after internal validation with bootstrap resampling. We selected a predicted probability threshold favoring specificity and NPV (87% and 88%) over sensitivity and PPV (64% and 61%, respectively). We tested the locked model/threshold on a separate cohort of 138 KTR undergoing surveillance biopsies at our institution (rejection 42; no rejection 96): NPV 78%; PPV 51%; AUC 0.66. Both the CP and GEP of subAR within the first 12 months following transplantation were independently associated with worse graft outcomes at 24 months, including de novo donor-specific antibody (DSA). Serial GEP tracked with response to treatment of subAR. DGE data from both cohorts mapped to gene pathways indicative of allograft rejection.

Description
Approximately 2.5 mg dry Col-0 seedlings were surface sterilized and stratified for 2 days at 4degreesC in liquid media containing 1.5% sucrose (w/v) before being transferred to light with constant shaking at 100 rpm on an orbital shaker. After 7 days, the seedling clusters were subjected to the treatments for 1 hr followed by total RNA isolation using the RNAqueous kit (Ambion). Each treatment was performed in triplicate or quadruplicate. All labeling (Enzo) and hybridization (Affymetrix) procedures were performed as directed by the manufacturers. Raw probe intensities output by the Affymetrix MAS software were processed using the RMA algorithm to obtain an expression measure for each gene on each array.
