Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
In order to gain insights into how PPARg regulates different facets of dendritic cell (DC) differentiation, we sought to identify PPARg regulated genes and gene networks in monocyte-derived dendritic cells using global gene expression profiling. We employed an exogenous ligand activation approach using a selective PPARg ligand (rosiglitazone abbreviated as RSG). In addition, we have defined culture conditions in which human serum (HS) induces PPARg activation via a yet uncharacterized endogenous mechanism. We also compared the gene expression profile of developing dendritic cells obtained from patients harboring dominant negative mutations of the PPARg receptor (C114R and C131Y).

Description
We have carried out global gene expression analysis to clarify the interrelationship between 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and differentiation-driven gene expression patterns in developing human monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Monocytes were treated with 10 nM 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or vehicle 14 hours after plating for 12 hours or 5 days. Monocytes, differentiating dendritic cells (+/-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 for 12 hours) and immature dendritic cells (+/-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 for 5 days) were harvested. This design allows one to identify genes regulated by differentiation and/or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in human monocyte-derived dendritic cells.
Publication Title
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 is an autonomous regulator of the transcriptional changes leading to a tolerogenic dendritic cell phenotype.

Description
We used microarrays to identify differentially expressed genes. We focused on those genes that were dramatically induced (>2-fold) in WT but not in the rpp4 mutant at 2 dpi when WT and rpp4 first showed distinct phenotypes

Description
Estrogen receptor (ER) expression and proliferative activity are established prognostic factors in breast cancer. In a search for additional prognostic motives we analyzed the gene expression patterns of 200 tumors of patients who were not treated by systemic therapy after surgery using a discovery approach. After performing hierarchical cluster analysis, we identified co-regulated genes related to the biological process of proliferation, steroid hormone receptor expression, as well as B cell and T cell infiltration. We calculated metagenes as surrogate for all genes contained within a particular cluster and visualized the relative expression in relation to time to metastasis with principal component analysis. Distinct patterns led to the hypothesis of a prognostic role of the immune system in tumors with high expression of proliferation associated genes. In multivariate Cox regression analysis the proliferation metagene showed a significant association with metastasis-free survival of the whole discovery cohort (Hazard Ratio (HR) 2.20, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.40-3.46). The B cell metagene showed additional independent prognostic information in carcinomas with high proliferative activity (HR 0.66, 95% CI 0.46 - 0.97). A prognostic influence of the B-cell metagene was independently confirmed by multivariate analysis in a first validation cohort enriched for high grade tumors (n=286, HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.62-0.98), and a second validation cohort enriched for younger patients (n=302, HR 0.83, 95% CI 0.7-0.97). Thus, we could demonstrate in three cohorts of untreated node-negative breast cancer patients, that the humoral immune system plays a pivotal role for metastasis-free survival of carcinomas of the breast.
Publication Title
The humoral immune system has a key prognostic impact in node-negative breast cancer.
