Description
AJ mouse is susceptible to lung carcinogenesis from urethane treatment and is a good model for human adenocarcinoma. We completed a study using microarray analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage cells from control or urethane treated mice. A unique macrophage expression signature in the lung tumor microenvironment was able to correctly classify the lavage samples.

Description
Besides the established selection criteria based on embryo morphology and blastomere number, new parameters for embryo viability are needed to improve the clinical outcome of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and more particular of elective single embryo transfer (eSET). The aim of the study was to analyse genome-wide whether the embryo viability was reflected by the expression of genes in the oocyte surrounding cumulus cells. Early cleavage (EC) was chosen as a parameter for embryo viability.

Description
Platelets have multiple roles in cancer cell metastasis. In this work we employed exon microarray technology to address platelet gene expression in metastatic non small cell lung cancer versus controls without cancer. We found that 197 of the 200 genes with the most significantly altered expression levels had their expression levels downregulated.

Significant downregulation of platelet gene expression in metastatic lung cancer.

Description
Growth and patterning of the face relies on several small buds of tissue, the facial prominences, which surround the primitive mouth. Beginning around E10 of mouse development the prominences undergo rapid growth and morphogenesis. By E11.5 the medial nasal prominences are in close apposition in the midline, as are the maxillary and medial nasal prominences on either side of the developing face. Subsequently, by E12.5 the nasal and maxillary prominences fuse to form a continuous shelf at the front of the face - the primary palate. Individual prominences are associated with specific developmental processes, and this is reflected by patterns of differential gene expression that give the prominences their unique identities. Thus, only the mandibular and maxillary prominences give rise to dentition while the frontonasal prominence has a unique role in olfaction, and the mandibular prominence in taste. We used microarrays to detail the differential gene expression program in each of the mandibular, maxillary, and frontonasal prominences during the key developmental timepoints of E10.0 through E12.5.
Publication Title
Spatial and temporal analysis of gene expression during growth and fusion of the mouse facial prominences.

Description
Gonadotrope or null cell pituitary tumors present clinically with signs of hypogonadism and hypopituitarism, together with visual disturbances due to mass effects. Since there are no medical therapies, surgery and/or radiation are the only therapeutic options. To identify dysregulated genes and/or pathways that may play a role in tumorigenesis and/ or progression, molecular profiling was performed on 14 gonadotrope tumors and 9 normal human pituitaries from autopsy samples. Principle component analysis (PCA) revealed clear discrimination between tumor and normal pituitary gene expression profiles. Bioinformatic analysis identified specific genes and pathways that were highly differentially regulated, including a cohort of putative downstream effectors of p53 were repressed in gonadotrope pituitary tumors, including GADD45, GADD45 and Reprimo with concomitant downregulation of the upstream regulator, PLAGL1. PLAGL1 reexpression in gonadotrope cells did not directly modulate the downstream targets. Further functional analysis of GADD45 was performed. Overexpression of GADD45 in mouse gonadotrope cells blocked proliferation, increased rates of apoptosis in response to growth factor withdrawal and increased colony formation in soft agar. In contrast to prior studies with GADD45, methylation interference assays showed no evidence of epigenetic modification of the GADD45 promoter in pituitary tumors. Thus, our data suggest that many components downstream of p53 are suppressed in gonadotrope pituitary tumors. A novel candidate, GADD45 is low in tumors and reexpression blocks proliferation, survival and tumorigenesis in gonadotrope cells. Unlike GADD45, GADD45 is not methylated to block its expression. Together these studies identify new targets and mechanisms to explore concerning pituitary tumor initiation and progression.

Description
Human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) is the causative agent of Kaposis sarcoma and is associated with the angioproliferative disorders primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) and multicentric Castlemans disease (MCD). We have previously described evidence of HHV-8 infection within the pulmonary vasculature of patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH). We speculated that viral infection of the pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells could cause the angioproliferative phenotype characteristic of severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We now demonstrate the ability of HHV-8 to infect human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMVECs) in vitro, confirming both latent and lytic infection. HHV-8 infection of HPMVECs resulted in significant changes of gene expression including alterations of pathways integral to both cellular apoptosis and angiogenesis. This infection also results in alterations of genes integral to the bone morphogenic protein (BMP) pathway, including down regulation of bone morphogenic protein receptor 1a (BMPR1a) and bone morphogenic protein 4 (BMP4). Other genes previously implicated in the development of PAH are also altered in expression by HHV-8 infection. These include increased expression of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-1, MMP-2 and MMP-10. Lastly, cells infected with HHV-8 apoptosis resistant. Infection of pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells with human herepesvirus-8 results in alteration of the BMP pathway as well as an anti-apoptotic phenotype, consistent with the development of plexiform lesions characteristic of pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Description
Leishmania major infected human dendritic cells (DCs) exhibit a marked induction of IL-12 ultimately promoting a robust Th1-mediated response associated with parasite killing and protective immunity. In this study, we utilized Affymetrix Genechips to globally assess the host cell genes and pathways associated with L. major infection during early infection (2, 4, 8, and 24 hrs) in human myeloid-derived DCs. Bioinformatic analyses of the hybridized microarray chips identified 728 genes, represented by 848 unique probe sets, which, when compared to uninfected samples were observed to be significantly differentially expressed by one-way ANOVA. Altogether, the data provide a genome-wide perspective on the transcriptional influences Leishmania species exert within human DCs during early infection, and provides a platform for further investigations toward functionally characterizing candidate genes of importance to the IL-12 based immune response to infections.
Publication Title
Human dendritic cells exhibit a pronounced type I IFN signature following Leishmania major infection that is required for IL-12 induction.
