Description
Context: Despite the well-recognized clinical features due to insufficient or excessive thyroid hormone (TH) levels in humans, it is largely unknown which genes are regulated by TH in human tissues. objective: To study the effect of TH on human gene expression profiles in whole blood, mainly consisting of TRa-expressing cells. Methods: We performed next-generation RNA sequencing on whole blood samples from 8 athyroid patients (4 females) on and after 4 weeks off levothyroxine replacement. Gene expression changes were analyzed through paired differential expression analysis and confirmed in a validation cohort. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was applied to identify thyroid state-related networks. Results: We detected 486 differentially expressed (DE) genes (fold-change above 1.5; multiple testing corrected P-value <0.05), of which 76 % were positively and 24 % were negatively regulated. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis revealed that 3 biological processes were significantly overrepresented of which the process translational elongation showed the highest fold enrichment (7.3 fold, P=1.8 x 10-6). Comparative transcriptome analysis revealed significant overlap with DE-genes in muscle samples upon different thyroid state (1.7-fold enrichment; P=0.02). WGCNA analysis independently identified various gene clusters that correlated with thyroid state. Further GO-analysis suggested that thyroid state regulates platelet function. Conclusions: Changes in thyroid state regulate numerous genes in human whole blood, predominantly TRa-expressing leukocytes. In addition, TH may regulate gene expression in platelets. Whole blood samples might potentially be used as a proxy for other TRa-expressing tissues in humans. Overall design: Transcriptome profiling (RNA-Seq) of 8 thyroidectomized human whole blood samples, sequenced first in hypothyroid state and after levothyroxine supplementation sequenced in a hypothyroid (mild thyreotoxic state) state on a Illumina HiSeq 2500 system.

Description
Pre-stimulation of MDMs with LPS (signals via MyD88 and TRIF dependent pathways) and PolyI:C (signals via a TRIF dependent pathway) leads to a reduced viral infection. In contrast, pre-stimulation with P3C (signals via MyD88 dependent pathway) does not lead to a reduced viral infection. This microarray was performed to find genes that are specifically upregulated in LPS and PolyI:C stimulated MDMs but not P3C stimulated MDMs. So to give us leads into the mechanism involved in the reduction of viral infection.

Description
Background. Cellular senescence is a mechanism that virtually irreversibly suppresses the proliferative capacity of cells in response to various stress signals. This includes the expression of activated oncogenes, which cause Oncogene-Induced Senescence (OIS). A body of evidence points to the involvement of chromatin reorganization, including the formation of senescence-associated heterochromatic foci (SAHF). The nuclear lamina (NL) is an important contributor to genome organization and has been involved in cellular senescence and organismal aging. It interacts with multiple regions of the genome called lamina-associated domains (LADs). Some LADs are cell type-specific, while others are conserved between cell types and are referred to as constitutive LADs. Here, we used DamID to investigate the changes in genome-NL interactions in a model of OIS triggered by the expression of the BRAFV600E oncogene.Results. We found that OIS cells lose most of their constitutive LADs (cLADS), suggesting the loss of a specific mechanism that targets cLADs to the NL. In addition, multiple genes relocated to the NL. Unexpectedly, they were not repressed, implying the abrogation of the repressive activity of the NL during OIS. Finally, OIS cells displayed an increased association of telomeres with the NL.Conclusions. Our study reveals that senescent cells acquire a new type of LAD organization and suggest the existence of as yet unknown mechanisms that tether cLADs to the NL and repress gene expression at the NL.

Description
Despite intense investigation of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that regulate pluripotency, the process of initial fate commitment of embryonic stem (ES) cells is still poorly understood. Here, we used a genome wide shRNA screen in mouse ES cells to identify genes that are essential for initiation of differentiation. Knockdown of the scaffolding protein Mek binding protein 1 (Mp1, also known as Lamtor3, Map2k1ip1) stimulated self-renewal of ES cells, blocked differentiation and promoted proliferation. Fibroblast growth factor 4 (FGF4) signaling is required for initial fate commitment of ES cells. Knockdown of Mp1 inhibited FGF4-induced differentiation but did not alter FGF4 driven proliferation. This uncoupling of differentiation and proliferation was also observed when oncogenic Ras isoforms were over expressed in ES cells. Knockdown of Mp1 redirected FGF4 signaling from differentiation towards pluripotency and upregulated the pluripotency-related genes Esrrb, Rex1, Tcl1 and Sox2.

Description
We studied two growth phases- proliferation, and expansion in first pair of leaves in Arabidosis using two different overexpression lines of PID gene. Ectopic expression of PID lead to small rosette and leaf phenotype. Overall design: We used first pair of leaves from proliferation ( 9 DAS-days after stratification) and expansion (16 DAS) stage from wild type Col-0 ecotype, 35S::PID10, 35S::PID21. Three genotype, three biological replicates, two time points (=18 sample). Experiment repeated twice generating two reads in two lanes i.e. L001 & L002 for each sample. Results calculated after combining reads from both lanes (=18x2=36 raw files; 2 for each sample)
