Description
INTRODUCTION: CDKN2A (p16) inactivation is common in lung cancer and occurs via homozygous deletions, methylation of promoter region, or point mutations. Although p16 promoter methylation has been linked to KRAS mutation and smoking, the associations between p16 inactivation mechanisms and other common genetic mutations and smoking status are still controversial or unknown. METHODS: We determined all three p16 inactivation mechanisms with the use of multiple methodologies for genomic status, methylation, RNA, and protein expression, and correlated them with EGFR, KRAS, STK11 mutations and smoking status in 40 cell lines and 45 tumor samples of primary non-small-cell lung carcinoma. We also performed meta-analyses to investigate the impact of smoke exposure on p16 inactivation. RESULTS: p16 inactivation was the major mechanism of RB pathway perturbation in non-small-cell lung carcinoma, with homozygous deletion being the most frequent method, followed by methylation and the rarer point mutations. Inactivating mechanisms were tightly correlated with loss of mRNA and protein expression. p16 inactivation occurred at comparable frequencies regardless of mutational status of EGFR, KRAS, and STK11, however, the major inactivation mechanism of p16 varied. p16 methylation was linked to KRAS mutation but was mutually exclusive with EGFR mutation. Cell lines and tumor samples demonstrated similar results. Our meta-analyses confirmed a modest positive association between p16 promoter methylation and smoking. CONCLUSION: Our results confirm that all the inactivation mechanisms are truly associated with loss of gene product and identify specific associations between p16 inactivation mechanisms and other genetic changes and smoking status.

Description
Experience-dependent plasticity (EDP) is essential for anatomical and functional maturation of sensory circuits during development and can be readily studied is the rodent barrel cortex. Using this model we aimed to uncover changes on the transcriptome level and applied RNA sequencing upon altered sensory experience in juvenile mice in a cortical column and layer specific manner. From column- and layer-specific barrel cortical tissue, high quality RNA was purified and sequenced. The current dataset entails an average of 50 million paired-end reads per sample, 75 base pairs in length. Overall design: Wild type mice were deprived of their C-row whiskers from P12 until P23-P24, after which acute brain slices were prepared and tissues were excised from L2/3 and L4 from specific barrel columns. RNA isolated from these tissue sections was then subjected to RNA-sequencing.

Description
OT-1 Transgenic CD8 T-cells were isolated from spleens of WT, PKC theta KO, and p50 cRel DKO mice. The T-cells were either cultured with non-pulsed DC (WT only and signified as "WT - UN") or with BMDCs pulsed with the OVA peptide SIINFEKL (N4) (WT, PKC theta KO, and p50 cRel DKO and signified as 'genotype - N4') at a ratio of 1:10 (DC:T-cell) for 18 hours. DCs then were depleted from the culture and RNA was made from the T-cells to measure gene expression at the early / late stage of T-cell activation

Description
Transition from symmetric to asymmetric cell division requires precise coordination of differential gene expression. Embryonic stem cells (ESC) strongly express Dido3, whose C-terminal truncation impedes ESC differentiation while retaining self-renewal. We show that Dido3 binds to its gene locus via H3K4me3 and RNA pol II and, at differentiation onset, induces expression of its splice variant Dido1, which then leads to Dido3 degradation and downregulation of stemness genes. We propose that Dido isoforms act as a switchboard to regulate genetic programs for ESC transition from pluripotency maintenance to promotion of differentiation.

Description
In neural stem cells, stimulation of the death receptor CD95 does not trigger apoptosis but resulted in increased stem cell survival and neuronal specification via activation of the Src /PI3K /AKT/mTOR signalling pathway. To further characterize CD95-dependent neural stem cell survival and differentiation we used conventional gene expression profiling combined with translation state array analysis. Mouse neural stem cells grown in neurosphere cultures were stimulated with a trimerized CD95L construct (CD95L-T4) and total as well as polysomal bound RNA was isolated 48 hours after stimulation and analysed by microarrays. CD95L-T4 treatment induced a global increase in ribosome-bound mRNA and protein translation as well as changes on genes involved in neurogenesis, protein synthesis and transcription factors.

Description
Genome control is operated by transcription factors (TF) controlling their target genes by binding to promoters and enhancers. Conceptually, the interactions between TFs, their binding sites, and their functional targets are represented by gene regulatory networks (GRN). Deciphering in vivo GRNs underlying organ development in an unbiased genome-wide setting involves identifying both functional TF-gene interactions and physical TF-DNA interactions. To reverse-engineer the GRN of eye development in Drosophila, we performed RNA-seq across 72 genetic perturbations and sorted cell types, and inferred a co-expression network. Next, we derived direct TF-DNA interactions using computational motif inference, ultimately connecting 241 TFs to 5632 direct target genes through 24926 enhancers. Using this network we found network motifs, cis-regulatory codes, and new regulators of eye development. We validate the predicted target regions of Grainyhead by ChIP-seq and identify this factor as a general co-factor in the eye network, being bound to thousands of nucleosome-free regions. Overall design: RNA-seq gene expression profiling across Drosophila 3rd instar larval wild type tissues (brain, eye-antennal and wing discs), specific cell types from the eye-antennal disc, sorted by FACS, and genetic perturbations (TF mutants, TF over-expression, and TF RNAi knockdown).
