Analysis of gene expression at RNA level by 4 different cell sorted Vg9Vd2 subsets (Subset 1=CD28+CD27+, Subset2=CD28-CD27+, Subset 3=CD28-CD7-CD16-, Subset 4 = CD28-CD27-CD16+). Results highlight differences in RNA expression characterising these four cell populations into distinct phenotypic subsets with distinct functional potential
Heterogeneous yet stable Vδ2(+) T-cell profiles define distinct cytotoxic effector potentials in healthy human individuals.

View SamplesTo understand the molecular differences between adipocytes and their contribution to cell-type specific function, we comprehensively characterised the transcriptomes and DNA methylomes using WGBS of isolated adipocytes from the SAT and VAT from normal weight individuals Overall design: WGBS, RNA-seq, and microarrays were used to study epigenetics and transcriptomics human cancer isolated subcutaneous (abdominal - SA) and vieceral (omental - VA) adipocyte, peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT).
Methylome and transcriptome maps of human visceral and subcutaneous adipocytes reveal key epigenetic differences at developmental genes.

View SamplesTo gain insight into the changes in gene expression pattern upon Ebola infection, CD45+/+ (100% protein level) and CD45+/- (62% protein level) mice were challenged with mouse adapted Ebola virus. At time-points day 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13, spleen tissue was harvested and splenocytes isolated. Total RNA was isolated for mRNA expression analysis. The mouse genome 430 2.0 array (Affymetrix, Inc.), which consists of over 39,000 genes in a single array, was used. Based on gene expression patterns, the variable genes were grouped into sixteen clusters. Each cluster contained genes associated with cellular immune processes, signaling, cell-cycle, complement coagulation cascade, biosynthesis/metabolism, ubiquitous genes involved in several cascades, and genes of unknown function. Interestingly, gene expression in clusters 2 and 3 were significantly downregulated by day 1 following EBOV challenge in CD45100% mice. In contrast, at day 1 following EBOV infection, the CD45 62% mice maintained gene expression patterns similar to day 0. The differences in gene expression patterns between the CD45 100% and CD45 62% splenocytes were less apparent at day 3 following infection and by days 5 and 7 they became very similar. At day 9, when wild-type mice had succumbed to the disease, the pattern in CD45 62% mice remained similar to the day 7 patterns of CD45 100% and CD45 62% mice. The pattern at days 11 and 13 in the CD45 62% mice had returned to that of day 0 CD45 100% or CD45 62% mice. These results suggested that in CD45 100% mice, subversion of the cell transcriptional machinery during the early stages of EBOV infection (day 1) might represent a major factor leading to death of the mice. In CD45 62% mice, early control of gene regulation likely provided the appropriate antiviral responses leading to regulated inflammation, immune co-stimulation, and survival.
Reduced levels of protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45 protect mice from the lethal effects of Ebola virus infection.

View SamplesUsing a transcriptomics approach we explored the mechanism(s) of synergy observed between CDKI-73 and fludarabine in primary CLL cells. The cytotoxic effects of CDKI-73 were associated with transcriptional inhibition of cdk9 target genes including MCL1 and XIAP. In contrast, fludarabine induced the transcription of these genes, an effect that was reversed by the combination of CDKI-73 and fludarabine.
A novel Cdk9 inhibitor preferentially targets tumor cells and synergizes with fludarabine.

View SamplesWe performed whole-genome transcriptomic profiling of RNA from mononuclear cells from bone marrow aspirates taken from healthy individuals. This study complements GSE58335: transcriptomic profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy individuals. Overall design: High-throughput sequencing was done using the Illumina GA IIx. The RNA is from previously published samples (Stirewalt et al., Genes Chromosomes Cancer, 2008, PMID:17910043)

View SamplesThe cytokines GM-CSF and IL-5 are thought to possess largely divergent functions despite a shared dependence on the common beta (βC) chain to initiate signaling. Although IL-5 is part of the core type 2 cytokine signature and is required for protection against some helminths, it is dispensable for immunity to others, such as Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri (H. polygyrus). Whether this is due to compensatory mechanisms is unclear. The transcription factor Bhlhe40 has been shown to control GM-CSF production and is proposed to be a novel regulator of T helper type 2 cells.
