Cells undergoing malignant transformation often shift their cellular metabolism from primarily oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect). Energy restriction-mimetic agents (ERMAs), such as 2-deoxyglucose and resveratrol, that target this shift in cellular metabolism have been effective in inhibiting cancer cell growth in vitro, and xenograft tumor growth in vivo.

View SamplesIn this study, we analyzed global liver gene expression in MICU1 knock-down (KD) mice. To generate liver-specific MICU1 KD mice, MICU1loxp/loxp male mice were treated with an AAV8-Cre under the control of a hepatocyte specific promoter (TBG). AAV8-TBG-Null treated littermates were used as controls. Liver samples were collected 3-5 weeks after injection. Knockdown was verified by protein and mRNA (94%, 98%, respectively). Mouse Gene 2.0 ST (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) arrays were used to obtain global gene expression data.

Treatment
View SamplesTwo Near Isogenic soybean (Glycine max) lines were grown in hydroponic conditions with either 50uM ferric nitrate or 100uM ferric nitrate. After 10 days, half the plants were harvested (total root tissue). At 12 days after planting, iron was added to plants grown in low iron conditions bringing them up to sufficient iron growth conditions. Root tissue was harvested for the remaining plants at 14 days after planting.

View SamplesChronic loss of Lasp1 alters the expression of other genes associated with cell motility/attachment, and/or other cellular functions. Results provide new information showing that loss of Lasp1 leads to up- and down-regulation of genes involved in cell motility/attachment/growth.
Lasp1 gene disruption is linked to enhanced cell migration and tumor formation.

View SamplesWe have found that thyroid hormones (THs), acting as soluble integrin avß3 ligands, activate growth-related signaling pathways in T-cell lymphomas (TCL). Specifically, TH-activated avß3 integrin signaling promotes TCL proliferation and angiogenesis, in part, via the up-regulation of VEGF. Overall design: CUTLL1 cells were treated with T3- and T4-bound agarose or agarose alone for 24hrs. Total RNA was harvested from cells and used for expression profiling via RNA-seq.

View SamplesHNF4a is an important liver transcription factor that regulates at least a thousand genes in the liver. Here we used expression profiling in HepG2 cells, a hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, in which HNF4a was knocked down by RNAi to identify some of those target genes. This dataset accompanies the article in Hepatology 2010 Feb;51(2):642-53.

View SamplesWhile gene expression dynamics have been extensively catalogued during hematopoietic differentiation in the adult, less is known about transcriptome diversity of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) during development. To characterize transcriptional and post-transcriptional changes in HSCs during development, we leveraged high-throughput genomic approaches to profile miRNAs, lincRNAs, and mRNAs. Our findings indicate that HSCs manifest distinct alternative splicing patterns in key hematopoietic regulators. Detailed analysis of the splicing dynamics and function of one such regulator, HMGA2, identified an alternative isoform that escapes miRNA-mediated targeting. We further identified the splicing kinase CLK3 that, by regulating HMGA2 splicing, preserves HMGA2 function in the setting of an increase in let-7 miRNA levels, delineating how CLK3 and HMGA2 form a functional axis that influences HSC properties during development. Collectively, our study highlights molecular mechanisms by which alternative splicing and miRNA-mediated post-transcriptional regulation impact the molecular identity and stage-specific developmental features of human HSCs. Overall design: RNA-seq of HPC-5F cells transduced with a control (CTRL), HMGA2-L (LONG), HMGA2-S (SHORT) or CLK3 ORF lentiviral over-expression vectors.

View SamplesProphase I of male meiosis involves dynamic chromosome segregation processes during early spermatogenesis, including synapsis, meiotic recombination, and cohesion. Genetic defects in genes participating in these processes consistently cause reproduction failure in mice. To identify candidate genes responsible for infertility in humans, we performed expression profiling of mouse spermatogenic cells undergoing meiotic prophase I.
