Illumina Genome Analyzer II
Description
P1 encodes an R2R3-MYB transcription factor responsible for the accumulation of insecticidal flavones in maize silks and red phlobaphene pigments in pericarps and other floral tissues, which contributed to making P1 an important visual marker since the dawn of modern genetics. We conducted RNA-Seq using pericarps at two different stages, 14 and 25 days after pollination (DAP). High-throughput sequencing using the Illumina platform resulted in the generation of ~20 million high quality reads, from which ~90% aligned to the recently completed maize genome sequence corresponding to ~5 million reads for each one of the four samples. Overall design: Examination of two different RNA samples from two different stages of maize pericarp tissues.

Description
We report the transcriptome changes that result of the genomic deletion of one or two alleles of an islet-specific long non-coding RNA (Blinc1) in isolated pancreas from e15.5 mouse embryos. Overall design: Pancreas from e15.5 embryos were dissected and total RNA extracted. Libraries were prepared from total RNA (RIN>8) with the TruSeq RNA prep kit (Illumina) and sequenced using the HiSeq2000 (Illumina) instrument. More than 20 million reads were mapped to the mouse genome (UCSC/mm9) using Tophat (version 2.0.4) with 4 mismatches and 10 maximum multiple hits. Significantly differentially expressed genes were calculated using DEseq.

Affymetrix Human Transcriptome Array 2.0 (hta20)
Description
Although it is well established that the ovarian reserve diminishes with increasing age, and that a womans age is correlated to lower oocyte quality, the interplay of a diminished reserve and age on oocyte developmental competence is not clear. After maturation, oocytes are mostly transcriptionally quiescent, and developmental competence prior to embryonic genome activation (EGA) relies on maternal RNA and proteins. Age and ovarian reserve both affects oocyte developmental competence, however, their relative importance in this process are difficult to tease out, as ageing is accompanied by a decrease in ovarian reserve. Oocytes store large quantities of RNA, including several noncoding transcripts (ncRNAs) involved in early development transcription and translation modulation. Despite the central role of ncRNAs in maternal to zygote transition, no characterization of the ncRNA transcriptome in human oocytes has been reported. This study aims at identifying how the human oocyte transcriptome changes across reproductive ages and ovarian reserve levels, with the goal of identifying candidate markers of developmental competence, and to assess the independent relevance of age and ovarian reserve in the changes of the transcriptome
Publication Title
The transcriptome of human oocytes is related to age and ovarian reserve.

Description
Alzheimers disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative dementia. Around 10% of cases present an age of onset before 65 years-old, which in turn can be divided in monogenic or familial AD (FAD) and sporadic early-onset AD (EOAD). Mutations in PSEN1, PSEN2 and APP genes have been linked with FAD. The aim of our study was to describe the brain whole-genome RNA expression profile of the posterior cingulate area in EOAD and FAD caused by PSEN1 mutations (FAD-PSEN1). 14 patients (7 EOAD and 7 FAD-PSEN1) and 7 neurologically healthy controls were selected and samples were hybridized in a Human Gene 1.1 microarray from Affymetrix. When comparing controls with EOAD and controls with FAD-PSEN1, we found 3183 and 3351 differentially expressed genes (DEG) respectively (FDR corrected p<0.05). However, any DEG was found in the comparison of the two groups of patients. Microarrays were validated through quantitative-PCR of 17 DEG. In silico analysis of the DEG revealed an alteration in biological pathways related to calcium-signaling, axon guidance and long-term potentiation (LTP), among others, in both groups of patients. These pathways are mainly related with cell signalling cascades, synaptic plasticity and learning and memory processes. In conclusion, the altered biological final pathways in EOAD and FAD-PSEN1 are highly coincident. Also, the findings are in line with those previously reported for late-onset AD (LOAD, onset >65 years-old), which implies that the consequences of the disease at the molecular level are similar in the final stages of the disease.

Description
ERa is essential for the anti-proliferative response of breast cancer cells not only to estrogen antagonists, but also to estrogen withdrawal by means of aromatase inhibitors. We explored here one of the simplest explanation for this, consisting in the possibility that ERa may have a wide genomic function in absence of ligands. The genomic binding of ERa in the complete absence of estrogen was then studied using hormone-dependent MCF7 cells, by chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing. From these data, 4.2K highly significant binding events were identified, which were further confirmed by comparing binding events in cells expressing ERa to cells silenced for ERa. Apo-ERa binding sites were distributed close to genes with functions associated to cell growth and epithelial maintenance and show significant overlap with binding of other transcription factors important for luminal epithelial breast cancer. Interestingly, we found that upon ERa silencing cognate gene transcription in absence of estrogen is downregulated and this is accompanied by increased H27Kme3 at ERa binding sites. RNA-Seq experiments showed that unliganded ERa controls basal transcription widely, including both coding and noncoding transcripts. Genes affected by ERa silencing can be easily functionally related to mammary epithelium differentiation and maintenance, especially when considering downregulated genes. Additional functions related to inflammatory and immune response was observed. Our data unravel unexpected actions of ERa in breast cancer cells and provide a novel framework to understand success and failure of hormone therapy in breast cancer. Overall design: Examination of unligandend estrogen receptor alpha (aERa) DNA interactions in control and aERa siRNA treated MCF7 cells.

Description
Understanding the underlying mechanisms of the well-established platelet hyporeactivity in neonates, would be of great relevance for both improving the clinical management of neonates, a population with a higher bleeding risk than adults (especially among sick and preterm infants), and getting new insights onto the regulatory mechanisms of platelet biology. Transcriptome analysis is a useful tool to identify mRNA signature affecting platelet function. However, human fetal/neonatal platelet transcriptome analysis has never been reported. Here, we used, for the first time, mRNA expression array to compare the platelet transcriptome changes during development. Microarray analysis was performed in pure platelet RNA obtained from adult and cord blood, using the same platform in two independent laboratories.
