Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
To describe normal cardiac and brain development during late first and early second trimester in human fetuses using microarray and pathways analysis and the creation of a corresponding normal database. RNA from recovered tissues was used for transcriptome analysis with Affymetrix 1.0 ST microarray chip. From the amassed data we investigated differences in cardiac and brain development within the 10-18 GA period dividing the sample by GA in three groups: 10-12 (H1), 13-15(H2) and 16-18(H3) weeks. A fold change of 2 or above adjusted for a false discovery rate of 5% was used as initial cut-off to determine differential gene expression for individual genes. Test for enrichment to identify functional groups were carried out using the Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). Array analysis correctly identified the cardiac specific genes, and transcripts reported to be differentially expressed were confirmed by qRT-PCR.

Description
Because most human stroke victims are elderly, studies of experimental stroke in the aged rather than the young rat model may be optimal for identifying clinically relevant cellular responses, as well for pinpointing beneficial interventions.

Description
CD69 is a transmembrane protein expressed on the surface of activated leukocyte. The ligand for CD69 and the intracellular signaling pathway of this molecule are yet unknown. It is widely used as a marker of activated lymphocyte, but its function in immune system is not known.

Description
Pancreas organogenesis is a highly dynamic process where neighbouring tissue interactions lead to dynamic changes in gene regulatory networks that orchestrates endocrine, exocrine and ductal lineage formation. To understand the spatio-temporal regulatory logic we have used the Forkhead transcription factor Foxa2-Venus fusion (FVF) knock-in reporter mouse to separate the FVF+ pancreatic epithelium from the FVF- surrounding mesenchyme and blood vessels to perform a whole genome-wide mRNA expression profiling at embryonic day (E)12.5-15.5. This allowed us to annotate genes and molecular processes differentially regulated in these cell types and compartments of the pancreas to generate a dynamic transcriptional landscape.

Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
We sought to determine whether Ldh activity in SCC tumors is a marker of the cell type from which these cells arise, or a key metabolic activity important for tumor initiation or progression. Here we show that genetic abrogation of Ldh enzyme activity in HFSC-mediated tumorigenesis had no effect on tumor number, time to tumor formation, tumor proliferation, epithelial to mesenchymal transition in tumors, gene expression in tumors, tumor pathology, or the immune response to tumors. Overall design: Examination of mRNA profile of five LDHA knockout mice vs five wild type (WT) mice using Illumina HiSeq2500.

Description
Numerous genetic variants associated with MEF2C are linked to autism, intellectual disability (ID) and schizophrenia (SCZ) – a heterogeneous collection of neurodevelopmental disorders with unclear pathophysiology. MEF2C is highly expressed in developing cortical excitatory neurons, but its role in their development remains unclear. We show here that conditional embryonic deletion of Mef2c in cortical and hippocampal excitatory neurons (Emx1-lineage) produces a dramatic reduction in cortical network activity in vivo, due in part to a dramatic increase in inhibitory and a decrease in excitatory synaptic transmission. In addition, we find that MEF2C regulates E/I synapse density predominantly as a cell-autonomous, transcriptional repressor. Analysis of differential gene expression in Mef2c mutant cortex identified a significant overlap with numerous synapse- and autism-linked genes, and the Mef2c mutant mice displayed numerous behaviors reminiscent of autism, ID and SCZ, suggesting that perturbing MEF2C function in neocortex can produce autistic- and ID-like behaviors in mice. Overall design: We carried out RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of somatosensory cortical tissue from control (Mef2cfl/fl) or Mef2c cKO (Mef2cfl/fl; Emx1-Cre) adult male mice. For the RNA-seq, three indipendent replicates were used for the mouse tissues.

- Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [transcript (gene) version (huex10st)
Description
The tumor microenvironment strongly influences cancer development, progression and metastasis. The role of carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in these processes and their clinical impact has not been studied systematically in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). We established primary cultures of CAFs and matched normal fibroblasts (NFs) from 15 resected NSCLC. We demonstrate that CAFs have greater ability than NFs to enhance the tumorigenicity of lung cancer cell lines. Microarray gene expression analysis of the 15 matched CAF and NF cell lines identified 46 differentially expressed genes, encoding for proteins that are significantly enriched for extracellular proteins regulated by the TGF-beta signaling pathway. We have identified a subset of 11 genes that formed a prognostic gene expression signature, which was validated in multiple independent NSCLC microarray datasets. Functional annotation using protein-protein interaction analyses of these and published cancer stroma-associated gene expression changes revealed prominent involvement of the focal adhesion and MAPK signalling pathways. Fourteen (30%) of the 46 genes also were differentially expressed in laser-capture micro-dissected corresponding primary tumor stroma compared to the matched normal lung. Six of these 14 genes could be induced by TGF-beta1 in NF. The results establish the prognostic impact of CAF-associated gene expression changes in NSCLC patients.
