View SamplesGene expression profiles generated from skeletal muscle biopsies taken from participants of the HERITAGE family study. Participants completed an endurance training regime in which a skeletal muscle biopsy was taken prior to the start and after the final session of the program. Biopsies were used to generate Affymetrix gene expression microarrays.

View SamplesMouse ES cells were stably transduced with a lentivirus expressing either wild-type KBP or the stable mutant KBP(KK/RR) and maintained in self-renewing growth conditions. RNA-seq was performed to assess mRNA expression differences caused by the stabilization of KBP. Overall design: 6 samples [a triplicate set for ES cells expressing wild-type KBP and a triplicate set expressing KBP(KK/RR)] were analyzed.

View SamplesThe death receptor CD95/Fas can be activated by immune cells to kill cancer cells. However, most siRNAs or shRNAs targeting either CD95 or CD95L induce DICE (Death Induced by CD95/CD95L Elimination), a form of cell death in which a combination of different cell death pathways are activated, that is selective for transformed cells, and that preferentially affects cancer stem cells. We now provide evidence that both CD95 and CD95L are part of a network of genes that contain sequences that when expressed as either siRNAs or shRNAs are toxic to cancer cells. They act through canonical RNAi by targeting the 3''UTRs of critical survival genes. We propose that these embedded toxic sequences are part of a conserved mechanism that regulates cell death, and we predict the existence of endogenous siRNAs, that when produced, induce cell death to regulate genome fidelity. Our data have implications for cancer therapy and the use of RNAi. Overall design: 293T (shL3 site deleted) cells were infected with either pTIP-shScr or pTIP-shL3 and following puromycin selection large RNAs were analyzed by deep sequencing 50 or 100hrs after addition of doxycycline/HeyA8 (shR6 site deleted) cells were infected with either pLKO-shScr or pLKO-shR6 and following puromycin selection large RNAs were analyzed by deep sequencing 50 or 100hrs after addition of selection.

View SamplesSWP73 subunits of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes (CRCs) are involved in key developmental pathways in Arabidopsis. We found, using microarray that inactivation of SWP73B caused altered expression of genes belonging to various regulatory pathways, including leaf and flower development. On the basis of this experiment and our other data we concluded that SWP73B modulates major developmental pathways.

View SamplesWith frequent fluctuations in global climate, plants often experience co-occurring dry-wet cycles and pathogen infection and this combination adversely affects plant survival. In the past, some studies indicated that morpho-physiological responses of plants to the combined stress are different from the individual stressed plants. However, interaction of drought stressed or drought recovered plants with pathogen has not been widely studied at molecular level. Such studies are important to understand the defense pathways that operate as part of combined stress tolerance mechanism. In this study, Arabidopsis plants were exposed to individual drought stress (soil drying at 40% FC, D), Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato DC3000 (PStDC3000), infection and their combination. Plants recovered from drought stress were also exposed to PStDC3000. Beside we have also infiltrated P. syringae pv tabaci (PSta, non-host pathogen) individually or in combination with drought stress. Using Affymetrix WT gene 1.0 ST array, global transcriptome profiling of plants leaves under individual drought stress and pathogen infection was compared with their combination. Results implicate that plants exposed to combined drought and pathogen stress experience a new state of stress where each combination of stressor and their timing defines the plant responses and thus should be studied explicitly.
