View SamplesWe present a more extensive and yet precise assessment to elucidate differences and similarities in performance at numerous aspects including signal range, sensitivity to fold-change, and fidelity with TaqMan qRT-PCR. There were three levels of data examined: entire data sets, data derived from gene name annotation oriented subset of 15442 RefSeq genes, and data derived from transcript pattern defined subset of 7034 RefSeq genes. Our results showed a fair degree of overall correlation between all 6 platforms evaluated; but, to varying degrees, two RNA-seq protocols outperformed three of the microarray platforms in most categories. Notably, a fourth microarray platform, Agilent, was comparable, or marginally superior, to the RNA-seq protocols within these same assessments. Furthermore, 3 platforms (Agilent and two RNA-seq methods) demonstrated over 80% concordance with the gold standard TaqMan assay in terms of fold-change accuracy. Our study suggests that the use of transcript patterns can enhance a number of the observed cross-platform correlations, indicating a potential usefulness for similar evaluations.

View Samples4 week old Arabidopsis plants, of ecotype Columbia, SALK_084897 or SAIL_303_D08 were either grown under normal conditions or grown under normal conditions for before having a moderate light and drought treatment applied. Light and drought treatment was applied by withholding water for 5 days prior to transfer to 300 uE m-2 s-1 light conditions. Samples were collected after 3 days of treatment or for the same age plants grown under normal conditions.
The absence of ALTERNATIVE OXIDASE1a in Arabidopsis results in acute sensitivity to combined light and drought stress.

View SamplesWe analyzed Purkinje cell transcriptome dynamics in the developing mouse cerebellum during the first three postnatal weeks, a key developmental period equivalent to the third trimester in human cerebellar development. Our study represents the first detailed analysis of developmental Purkinje cell transcriptomes and provides a valuable dataset for gene network analyses and biological questions on genes implicated in cerebellar and Purkinje cell development. Overall design: Laser capture microdissection was employed to obtain a highly enriched population of cerebellar Purkinje cells. Deep sequencing was performed on RNA isolated from 1000 Purkinje cells at five developmental timepoints (postnatal days P0, P4, P8, P14 and P21) in triplicate.
A gene expression signature in developing Purkinje cells predicts autism and intellectual disability co-morbidity status.

View SamplesImproving outcomes in multiple myeloma will not only involve development of new therapies, but better use of existing treatments. We performed RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) on samples from newly diagnosed patients enrolled into the phase II PADIMAC study. Using an empirical Bayes approach and synthetic annealing, we developed and trained a seven-gene signature to predict treatment outcome. We tested the signature on independent cohorts treated with bortezomib- and lenalidomide-based therapies. The signature was capable of distinguishing which patients would respond better to which regimen. In the CoMMpass dataset, patients who were treated correctly according to the signature had a better progression-free and overall survival than those who were not. Indeed, the outcome for these correctly treated patients was non-inferior to those treated with combined bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRD). PADIMAC: Bortezomib, Adriamycin and Dexamethasone (PAD) therapy for previously untreated patients with multiple myeloma: Impact of minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients with deferred ASCT (autologous stem cell transplant) Overall design: RNA-Seq data from 44 patients enrolled into the PADIMAC study who provided RNA with an RNA Integrity score of 6 or greater. Thirteen out of forty-four patients had at least a very good partial remission sustained for at least a year without progression and were labelled as "bortezomib-good".
