Glioblastoma (GBM) derived sphere lines and adherent cell lines are an important tool for research in basic and translational neuro-oncology. Documentation of their genetic identity has become a requirement for scientific journals and grant applications to exclude cross-contamination and misidentification that lead to misinterpretation of results. Here, we report expression data for 26 samples including 4 GBM derived sphere lines (4 x 3 replicates), 2 GBM derived sphere lines passaged through intracranial transplantation (2x 1), 2 adherent GBM derived cell lines (2 + 2 x 3 replicates), 4 corresponding glioblastoma tumors and 2 non-tumor brain tissues.

View SamplesTranscriptome analysis of post-mortem brain tissue specimens from three brain regions (BRs), entorinal, temporal and frontal cortices, of 71 Japanese brain-donor subjects to identify genes relevant to the expansion of neurofibrillary tangles. In total, 213 brain tissue specimens (= 71 subjects 3 BRs) were involved in this study. The spreading of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), intraneuronal aggregates of highly phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein tau, across the human brain is correlated with the cognitive severity of Alzheimers disease (AD). To identify genes relevant to NFT expansion defined by the Braak stage, we conducted exon array analysis with an exploratory sample set consisting of 213 human post-mortem brain tissue specimens from the entorinal, temporal and frontal cortices of 71 brain-donor subjects: Braak NFT stages 0 (N = 13), III (N = 20), IIIIV (N = 19) and VVI (N = 19). We identified eight genes, RELN, PTGS2, MYO5C, TRIL, DCHS2, GRB14, NPAS4 and PHYHD1, associated with the Braak stage. The expression levels of three genes, PHYHD1, MYO5C and GRB14, exhibited reproducible association on real-time quantitative PCR analysis. In another sample set, including control subjects (N = 30) and patients with late-onset AD (N = 37), dementia with Lewy bodies (N = 17) and Parkinson disease (N = 36), the expression levels of two genes, PHYHD1 and MYO5C, were obviously associated with late-onset AD. Proteinprotein interaction network analysis with a public database revealed that PHYHD1 interacts with MYO5C via POT1, and PHYHD1 directly interacts with amyloid beta-peptide 42. It is thus likely that functional failure of PHYHD1 and MYO5C could lead to AD development.

View SamplesWe identified a rare coding variant (p.K420Q) in the complement component 7 (C7) gene affecting the risk of Alzheimer's disease. To investigate the cellular effects of the mutant, we performed RNA-seq in cell line overexpression wilt-type and mutant C7. U251 glioma cells with stable expression of mutant APP (K670N/M671L) (U251-APP cells), which produce Aß42 under Dox inducing, were used as the model cell. Total RNA of U251-APP cells overexpressing wild type and mutant C7 proteins were subjected to transcriptome sequencing using Illumina Hiseq 4000 platform. Overall design: C7 overexpression was performed in U251 cell with a stably expression of mutant APP (U251-APP cells) with three biological triplicates for each condition (vector, wild-type, and mutant).

View SamplesComparative analysis of gene expression profiles in newly developed housing systems is important to understand gene functions in chicken for adaptation and possible gene-environment interactions among layer lines. Therefore, the objective of this study was to characterize the molecular processes that are different among the two layer lines Lohmann Selected Leghorn (LSL) and Lohmann Brown (LB) using whole genome RNA expression profiles. Despite their approximately identical egg production performance these layer lines differ markedly in other phenotypic traits. The two layer lines were kept under the production environment of the newly developed small group housing system Eurovent German with two different group sizes and three tiers.
Differential gene expression from genome-wide microarray analyses distinguishes Lohmann Selected Leghorn and Lohmann Brown layers.

View SamplesTo address the functional role of KDM6A in the regulation of Rhox genes, male and female mouse ES cells were transfected with a mixture of three small interfering RNA duplexes, each of which targets a different region of Kdm6a mRNA. We found that Kdm6a knockdown in mouse ES cells caused a decrease in expression of a subset of Rhox genes, Rhox6 and 9. Furthermore, Rhox6 and 9 expression was decreased in female ES cells but not male ES cells indicating that KDM6A regulates Rhox gene expression in a sexually dimorphic manner.

The hypothesis tested in the present study was that H19X is an important factor in the development of TGFb-driven fibrosis. Results provide important information about the role H19X in fibroblasts in particolar on extracellular matrix production and cell cycle regulation.
Long noncoding RNA H19X is a key mediator of TGF-β-driven fibrosis.
