Expression profiling of 3T3-F442A adipocytes treated with growth hormone (GH, 500 nM) or vehicle (DMEM + 1% BSA) control for 30 min., 4 hr., or 48 hr in three independent experiments. Chronic GH treatment induces metabolic changes consistent with insulin resistance in 3T3-F442A adipocytes.
Profiles of growth hormone (GH)-regulated genes reveal time-dependent responses and identify a mechanism for regulation of activating transcription factor 3 by GH.

View SamplesNumerous pathways underlie brain invasion by tumors, a critical element underpinning recurrence and lethality in human glioblastomas (hGBMs). The identification of the master factors that elicit these pathways globally, driving invasion altogether, eludes us. We report that high expression levels of non-canonical Wnt5a characterize the most invasive gliomas, epitomize dismal prognosis and discriminate the most infiltrating mesenchymal hGBMs from proneural and classical ones. Exacerbated Wnt5a defines mesenchymal hGBM cells (Wnt5aHigh) possessing prototypical invasiveness and tumor-promoting stem-like characteristics (TPCs), but not their Wnt5aLow siblings. While inhibition of Wnt5a suppresses infiltration in mesenchymal hGBM TPCs, administration or over-expression of Wnt5a elicits the opposite effects, turning on infiltrative mesenchymal-like molecular programs in poorly motile, classical hGBM TPCs and Wnt5aLow mesenchymal TPCs, ex vivo and intracranially. Anti-Wnt5a antibodies or antagonist Wnt5a peptides block invasion, increasing survival in clinically relevant intracranial hGBM models. Wnt5a emerges as a master regulator in gliomatous invasion, endowing hGBM TPCs with archetypal, infiltratory transcriptional and functional profiles, providing a unique target to tackle brain invasion by hGBM cancer stem cells.

View SamplesThe involvment of bile acids such as deoxycholic acid (DCA) in gastro-esophageal reflux disease and subsequent Barretts metaplsia has been postulated. This study examines gene expression induced by exposure to DCA in esophageal cells and may be utilised in cross-comparisons with data derived from gene expression studies of Barretts esophagus and associated adenocarcinoma.

Additionally this study may be used to assess divergence in response to bile acids by comparisons with similar study performed in SKGT4 barrett''s assocaited adenocarcinoma cell line.

View SamplesUsing our computational method SynGeNet to evaluate genomic and transcriptomic data characterizing four major genomic subtypes of melanoma, we selected the top ranked drug combination for BRAF-mutation melanoma for subsequent validaiton. Here we present drug-induced gene expression data from the BRAF-mutant A375 melanoma cell line in response to four treatment conditions: vehicle control (DMSO), vemurafenib alone, tretinoin (ATRA) alone and vemurafenib+tretinoin combination. Overall design: Gene expression profiles of A375 melanoma cells were generated by RNAseq (Illumina HiSeq 4000) under the following treatment conditions: vehicle control (DMSO), vemurafenib, tretinoin and vemurafenib + tretinoin combination.
Synergy from gene expression and network mining (SynGeNet) method predicts synergistic drug combinations for diverse melanoma genomic subtypes.
