View SamplesProtein misfolding stress in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) leads to dysregulation of lipid metabolism in the liver, and ER stress is associated with human diseases that are accompanied by hepatic lipid accumulation, including obesity, alcoholism, and viral hepatitis; yet the pathways leading from ER stress to the regulation of lipid metabolism are poorly understood. Working exclusively in vivo, we used a bottom-up approach to infer pathways in the genetic regulation of lipid metabolism by the UPR.

Gene expression profiling reveals epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) genes can selectively differentiate eribulin sensitive breast cancer cells.

View SamplesEribulin mesylate is a synthetic macrocyclic ketone analog of the marine sponge natural product halichondrin B. Eribulin is a mechanistically unique inhibitor of microtubule dynamics, leading to inhibition of microtubule growth in the absence of effects on microtubule shortening at microtubule plus ends, and formation of nonproductive tubulin aggregates. In this study, we investigated whether selective signal pathways were associated with eribulin activity compared to paclitaxel, which stabilizes microtubules, based on gene expression profiling of cell line panels of breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancer in vitro.

View SamplesOur data indicated that activation of the PPARg nuclear receptor induces a retinoid response in human dendritic cells. In order to assess the contribution of retinoid signaling to the PPARg response we decided to use a combination of pharmacological activators and inhibitors of these pathways. Cells were treated with the synthetic PPARg ligand rosiglitazone (RSG), or with RSG along with the RARa antagonist (AGN193109) to block RARa mediated gene expression, or the RARa specific agonists (AM580) alone. This design allows one to determine if retinoid signaling is a downstream event of PPARg activation and what portion of PPARg regulated genes are regulated via induced retinoid signaling.
PPARgamma controls CD1d expression by turning on retinoic acid synthesis in developing human dendritic cells.

View SamplesCD14+ human monocytes differentiating into DCs in the presence of IL4 and GM-CSF were treated with agonists for RXR and its partners or vehicle 18 hours after plating (experiment with RXR and permissive partners, donor 1-3) or 14 hours after plating (experiment with nonpermissive partners, donor 4-6). Cells were harvested 12 hours thereafter. Experiments were performed in biological triplicates representing samples from three different donors.
