Description
Objective: An intronic GGGGCC-repeat expansion of C9ORF72 is the most common genetic variant of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia. The mechanism of neurodegeneration is unknown, but a direct effect on RNA processing mediated by RNA foci transcribed from the repeat sequence has been proposed.

- Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [probe set (exon) version (huex10st)
Description
Alternative splicing of pre-mRNA generates protein diversity and has been linked to cancer progression and drug response. Exon microarray technology enables genome-wide quantication of expression levels for the majority of exons and facilitates the discovery of alternative splicing events. Analysis of exon array data is more challenging than gene expression data and there is a need for reliable quantication of exons and alternative spliced variants. We introduce a novel, computationally efficient methodology, MEAP, for exon array data preprocessing, analysis and visualization. We compared MEAP with other preprocessing methods, and validation of the results show that MEAP produces reliable quantication of exons and alternative spliced variants. Analysis of data from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines revealed several variants associated with 11q13 amplication, which is a predictive marker of metastasis and decreased survival in HNSCC patients. Together these results demonstrate the utility of MEAP in suggesting novel experimentally testable predictions. Thus, in addition to novel methodology to process large-scale exon array data sets, our results provide several HNSCC candidate genes for further studies.

Description
We report the in vivo androgen receptor (AR) binding sites in murine prostate, epididymis and kidney in response to physiological androgen testosterone using ChIP-sequencing and gene expression profiling by microarray. From AR cistrome analysis, we identified tissue-specific collaborating factors i.e. FoxA1 in prostate, Hnf4a in kidney and AP2a in epididymis and validated by ChIP-seq. The ChIP experiments have been performed using antibodies specific to AR, FoxA1, Hnf4a, AP-2a and IgG non-specific antibody as a negative control.

Description
We report that the phytoestrogen genistein acts as a tissue-specific androgen receptor modulator in mouse using a novel androgen reporter mouse line and gene expression profiling. Genistein is a partial androgen agonist/antagonist in prostate, brain, and testis but not in skeletal muscle or lung. Gene expression profiling has been done from prostates of intact and castrated male mice treated with genistein or vehicle. Gene expression profiling was also done from prostates of estradiol-treated intact male mice.

Description
We report the androgen receptor recruitment to the chromatin of androgen responsive prostate cancer cell lines, LNCaP-1F5 and VCaP in response to physiological androgen 5a-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) using ChIP-sequencing. We compare the AR recruitment by DHT to that by partial agonist/antagonist cyproterone acetate and mifepristone (RU486) in LNCaP-1F5 cells. We also report the role of glucocorticoid receptor recruitment in presence of dexamethasone (Dex) in androgen responsive prostate cancer cells. The AR and GR cistrome analysis is subsequently compared with gene expression data and RNA Pol II analysis. The ChIP-seq has been performed using AR, GR, RNA Pol II antibodies.

Description
TDP-43 is an RNA/DNA-binding protein implicated in transcriptional repression and mRNA processing. Inclusions of TDP-43 are hallmarks of frontotemporal dementias and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Besides aggregation of TDP-43, loss of nuclear localization is observed in disease. To identify relevant targets of TDP-43, we performed an expression profiling study. Thereby, histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) downregulation was discovered upon TDP-43 silencing on mRNA and protein level in human embryonic kidney HEK293E and neuronal SH-SY5Y cells. This was accompanied by accumulation of the major HDAC6 substrate, acetyl-tubulin. Expression of wild-type but neither RNA-binding- nor nuclear-localization-deficient TDP-43 restored HDAC6 expression. Moreover, TDP-43 bound specifically to HDAC6 mRNA arguing for a direct functional interaction. Importantly, in vivo validation in TDP-43 knockout Drosophila melanogaster also showed HDAC6 mRNA decrease. HDAC6 is necessary for protein aggregate formation and degradation. Indeed, downregulation of HDAC6 reduced aggregate formation and increased cytotoxicity of expanded poly-glutamine ataxin-3 in TDP-43 silenced cells. This was completely restored by co-transfection with HDAC6. In conclusion, loss of functional TDP-43 causes HDAC6 downregulation and might thereby contribute to pathogenesis.

Description
The distinction between lymphatic and blood vessels is biologically fundamental. Two immortalized cell lines, which have been widely used as models for endothelial cells of blood vascular origin, are the human microvascular endothelial cell line-1 (HMEC-1) and the telomerase-immortalized microvascular endothelial cell line (TIME). However, analysis of protein expression by flow cytometry revealed expression of lymphatic markers on these cell lines. Furthermore, functional in vitro leukocyte transmigration assays demonstrated deficiencies in several steps of the leukocyte extravasation cascade. Hence we performed this microarray analysis of the gene expression in HMEC-1 and TIME. We then compare the expression profiles to those of published blood- and lymphatic endothelial cells.
