- Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
A role of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) as an antioxidant molecule has been recognized, largely based on in vitro studies. However, more recently, the concept of antioxidant molecule has been reconsidered and its biological function is no longer considered to be simply due to its ability to act as electron donors, rather, it appears to act by modulating signaling and gene expression.

Description
Single O-GlcNAc modification orchestrate by O-GlcNAc Transferase (OGT) and O-GlcNAcase (OGA alias MGEA5) enzymes, affects signal transduction and gene expression by chromatin modulation. We developed Oga deleted MEF (mouse embryonic fibroblast) cells to investigate effects of O-GlcNAc modification in mice. RNA isolated from Mouse Embryonic Fibroblast cells generated from Oga Knock out (KO) Heterozygous (Het) and wild type (WT) cells and subjected to microarray analysis.

Description
Loss of Amylo-alpha-1-6-glucosidase-4-alpha-glucanotransferase (AGL) drives bladder cancer growth. Low AGL expression predicts poor patient outcome. Currently no specific therapeutically tractable targets/pathways exist that could be used to treat patients with low AGL expressing bladder tumors.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
Extremely variable clinic and genetic features characterize Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy Disorders (MED). Pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) defects can be divided into large-scale rearrangements and single point mutations. Clinical manifestations become evident when a threshold percentage of the total mtDNA is mutated. In some MED, the "mutant load" in an affected tissue is directly related to the severity of the phenotype. However, the clinical phenotype is not simply a direct consequence of the relative abundance of mutated mtDNA. Other factors, such as nuclear background, can contribute to the disease process, resulting in a wide range of phenotypes caused by the same mutation. Using Affymetrix oligonucleotide cDNA microarrays (HG-U133A), we studied the gene expression profile of muscle tissue biopsies obtained from 12 MED patients (4 common 4977-bp deleted mtDNA and 8 A3243G: 4 PEO and 4 MELAS phenotypes) compared with age-matched healthy individuals.

Description
Prostate cancer is dependent on androgen receptor (AR) signaling at all stages of the disease and cyclin D1 has been shown to negatively modulate the expression of the AR-dependent gene prostate specific antigen (KLK3/PSA).

Description
BAF57, a component of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex conglomerate,modulates androgen receptor activity to promote prostate cancer. However the molecular consequences of tumor associated BAF57 elevation have remianed undefined in advanced disease such as castration resistant prostate cancer and/or metastasis

Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
CNS-delivery of Interleukin 4 (IL-4) - via a lentiviral-mediated gene therapy strategy - skews microglia to proliferate, inducing these cells to adopt the phenotype of slowly proliferating cells. Transcriptome analysis revealed that IL-4-treated microglia express a broad number of genes normally encoded by embryonic microglia. Overall design: RNAseq analysis of sorted microglia from mice receiving IL-4 gene therapy
Publication Title
Interleukin 4 modulates microglia homeostasis and attenuates the early slowly progressive phase of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The first clinical trial testing the combination of targeted therapy with a BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib and immunotherapy with a CTLA-4 antibody ipilimumab was terminated early due to significant liver toxicities, possibly due to paradoxical activation of the MAPK pathway by BRAF inhibitors in tumors with wild type BRAF. MEK inhibitors can potentiate the MAPK inhibition in tumor, while potentially alleviating the unwanted paradoxical MAPK activation. With a mouse model of syngeneic BRAFV600E driven melanoma (SM1), we tested whether the addition of the MEK inhibitor trametinib would enhance the immunosensitization effects of the BRAF inhibitor dabrafenib. Combination of dabrafenib and trametinib with pmel-1 adoptive cell transfer (ACT) showed complete tumor regression. Bioluminescent imaging and tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) phenotyping showed increased effector infiltration to tumors with dabrafenib, trametinib or dabrafenib plus trametinib with pmel-1 ACT combination. Intracellular IFN gamma staining of the TILs and in vivo cytotoxicity studies showed trametinib was not detrimental to the effector functions in vivo. Dabrafenib increased tumor associated macrophages and T regulatory cells (Tregs) in the tumors, which can be overcome by addition of trametinib. Microarray analysis revealed increased melanoma antigen, MHC expression, and global immune-related gene upregulation with the triple combination therapy. Given the up-regulation of PD-L1 seen with dabrafenib and/or trametinib combined with antigen specific ACT, we tested the triple combination of dabrafenib, trametinib with anti-PD1 therapy, and observed superior anti-tumor effect to SM1 tumors. Our findings support the testing of these combinations in patients with BRAFV600E mutant metastatic melanoma.

Description
This experiment was carried out in the context of a pharmacogenetic study of long-term (4-year follow-up) response to Interferon-beta treatment in two cohorts of Italian Multiple Sclerosis patients, to identify genetic variants (SNPs) that may influence response to IFN-beta. We integrated results from meta-analysis of the two cohorts with gene expression profiling of IFN stimulated PBMCs from 20 healthy controls and eQTL analyses, to look at possible enrichment of IFN-beta induced genes with genes mapped by top-ranking meta-analyzed SNPs.
