Description
Primary human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF) were exposed to either salt stress (80mM KCl) or heat stress (44ºC). Newly transcribed RNA was labelled by adding 500µM 4-thiouridine (4sU) to the cell culture media for 1h. Total cellular RNA was isolated using Trizol. Newly transcribed RNA was purified following the protocol described in Raedle et al. JoVE 2013. Overall design: Newly transcribed RNA was labelled in one hour intervals during either salt or heat stress (prior to stress, 0-1h or 1-2h). All 4sU-RNA samples were sent for sequencing. Two independent biological replicates were analysed.

Description
Quiescent stem cells of glioblastoma (GBM), a malignant primary brain tumor, are potential sources for recurrence after therapy. However, the gene expression program underlying the physiology of GBM stem cells remains unclear. We have isolated quiescent GBM cells by engineering them with a knock-in H2B-GFP proliferation reporter and expanding them in a 3D tumor organoid model that mimics tumor heterogeneity. H2B-GFP label retaining quiescent cells were subjected to stem cell assays and RNA-Seq gene expression analysis. While quiescent GBM cells were similar in clonal culture assays to their proliferative counterparts, they displayed higher therapy resistance. Interestingly, quiescent GBM cells upregulated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) genes and genes of extracellular matrix components. Our findings connect quiescent GBM cells with an EMT-like shift, possibly explaining how GBM stem cells achieve high therapy resistance and invasiveness, and suggest new targets to abrogate GBM. Overall design: Glioblastoma cancer cells in 3D organoid culture were pulsed for 2 weeks with H2B-GFP, then chased either 2 or 4 weeks. Label-retaining GFP-high cells (quiescent) were separated from bulk population, and both populations were analyzed by RNA-Seq.

Description
Primary human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF) were infected with wild-type simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) strain 17 at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 10. Newly transcribed RNA was labelled by adding 500µM 4-thiouridine (4sU) to the cell culture media for 1h. Total cellular RNA was isolated using Trizol. Newly transcribed RNA was purified following the protocol described in Raedle et al. JoVE 2013. Overall design: Newly transcribed RNA was labelled in one hour intervals during the first eight hours of HSV-1 infection. All nine 4sU-RNA samples as well as total cellular RNA of every second hour of infection were sent for sequencing. Two independent biological replicates were analysed.

Description
The purpose of this experiment was to identify oestrogen regulated genes in human primary cell cultures of neuronal and glial cells modelling the developing human nervous system. We were especially interested in genes involved in proliferation, differentiation and migration of neuronal cells and genes involved in or linked to neurodegenerative diseases. We have therefore assessed gene expression changes, using Affymetrix GeneChips (HG-U133A), of oestrogen treated human neuronal/ glial cell cultures. We continued with 14 selected genes and confirmed the gene expression changes, by relative quantitative real time PCR, of 6 genes (p< 0.05) important in neuronal development, three of which also are suggested to have links to neurodegenerative diseases.

Description
Gliomas arising in the brainstem and thalamus are devastating tumors that are difficult to surgically resect due to their proximity to eloquent brain structures. Here, we performed a comprehesive genomic and epigenomic study, using gene expression and methylation microarrays, to research on th different genomic and epigenetic signatures between brainstem, thalamic, and supratentorial gliomas.

Description
The gene expression pattern of spherical neural masses (SNM) derived from HPRT knockdown murine D3 stem cells during neuronal differentiation to final neurons was invesitigated by RNA-Seq based gene expression analysis and the results were interpreted by GO, GSEA and signaling pathway analyses with Avadis NGS and PANTHER Classification System. Overall design: For RNA-Seq experiment, total RNAs of HPRT knockdown and control SNMs were extracted time-sequentially during the SNM differentiation such as differentiation-day 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 to final neurons, and each prepared library applied to the HiSeq 2000 sequencer of Illumina for 50 cycles of single lane run.

Description
Twenty-one genes (27 probe sets) were up-regulated in CAF, as compared with NF. Known functions of these genes relate to paracrine or intracellular signaling, transcriptional regulation, extracellular matrix and cell adhesion/migration. Ten genes (14 probe sets) were down-regulated in CAF, including the pluripotency transcription factor KLF4. Quantitative RTPCR analysis of 10 genes validated the array results. Immunohistochemical staining for three gene products confirmed stromal expression in terms of location and relative quantity. Surprisingly, the variability of gene expression was slightly higher in NF than in CAF, suggesting inter-individual heterogeneity of normal stroma.
