Long non-coding RNAs show highly tissue and disease specific expression profiles. We analyzed prostate cancer and normal adjacent prostate samples to identify cancer-specific transcripts and found 334 candidates, of which 15 were validated by RT-PCR.
Novel long non-coding RNAs are specific diagnostic and prognostic markers for prostate cancer.

View SamplesThere is much evidence that T cells may be activated via mechanisms which act independently of direct TCR ligation. Despite this, the question of whether such forms of bystander T cell activation occur during immune responses is hotly debated.
Human CD4+ memory T cells are preferential targets for bystander activation and apoptosis.

View SamplesAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) continues to have the lowest survival rates of all leukemias. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to improve clinical outcomes for AML patients. Here, we report a novel role for Wilms’ tumor 1-associated protein (WTAP) in pathogenesis of AML. We have performed RNA-Seq in K562 cells with knockdown of WTAP to ascertain which genes it regulates. Overall design: We have 2 replicates of total RNA for K562 cells and 2 replicates with WTAP knocked down
WTAP is a novel oncogenic protein in acute myeloid leukemia.

View SamplesInfection with the human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) remains asymptomatic in the majority of carriers; however, some 5% develop a chronic inflammation of the central nervous system termed HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (HAM). It is not well understood how the virus triggers the onset of HAM after many years of clinical latency and importantly, what distinguishes hosts who develop the disease from those who remain asymptomatic. In this study we tested the hypothesis that patients with HAM can be distinguished from asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs) and uninfected subjects by their whole blood transcriptional profiles. Here, we compare unstimulated whole blood gene expression profiles of 20 asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs), 10 patients with HAM and 9 uninfected healthy control subjects to (1) identify a transcriptional signature associated with presence of HAM and (2) identify cell types and pathways abnormally regulated in HAM by canonical and modular pathway analysis.

View SamplesInfection with the human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) remains asymptomatic in the majority of carriers; however, some 5% develop a chronic inflammation of the central nervous system termed HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (HAM). It is not well understood how the virus triggers the onset of HAM after many years of clinical latency and importantly, what distinguishes hosts who develop the disease from those who remain asymptomatic. In a previous study we identified a 80-gene transcriptional signature of HAM based in the hypothesis that patients with HAM can be distinguished from asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs) and uninfected subjects by their whole blood transcriptional profiles. In this study we wished to validate the 80-gene signature on an independent cohort comprising 17 asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs), 10 patients with HAM and 8 uninfected healthy control subjects.

View SamplesRelative levels of RNA transcripts were compared between anterior and posterior wing bud thirds from stage HH24 normal and talpid3 mutant chicken embryos using chicken Affymetrix chips. Data collected with Affymetrix scanner was normalized using the Plier algorithm within the expression console package from Affymetrix and log2 transformed. 5 replicates of anterior third normal wing buds, 4 replicates of posterior third of normal wing buds and 4 replicates each of anterior and posterior thirds of talpid3 wing buds at stage HH24 were examined.

View SamplesHigh quality RNA was extracted from the whole seedlings (Combined root and leaf samples) using TRI Reagent (Ambion, Inc. USA) and pooled from 12 independent stressed and non-stressed plant samples separately, and treated with DNase-I (QIAGEN GmbH, Germany). Subsequently, RNA cleanup was carried out using RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (QIAGEN GmbH, Germany) and 5 ug of total RNA from each sample in triplicates were reverse-transcribed to double stranded cDNA using the GeneChipᆴ One-Cycle cDNA Synthesis Kit. The biotin-labelled cRNA was made using the GeneChipᆴ IVT Labelling Kit (Affymetrix, CA, USA). Twenty microgram of cRNA samples was fragmented and out of which which 7.5 ug cRNA were hybridized for 16 hours at 45C to the Affymetrix GeneChipᆴ Rice Genome Array (Santa Clara, CA, USA). After washing and staining with R-phycoerythrin streptavidin in a Fluidics Station, using the Genechipᆴ Fluidics Station 450, the arrays were scanned by the Genechipᆴ 3000 Scanner. The chip images were scanned and extracted using default settings and the CEL files were produced with the Affymetrix GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS 1.2). The resulting .CEL files were imported into the GeneSpring GX 10 (Agilent Technologies Inc, Santa Clara CA) and normalized with the PLIER16 algorithm. The resulting expression values were log2-transformed. Average log signal intensity values of three technical replicates for each sample were used for advance analysis.
