- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The integrated stress response (ISR) controls cellular adaptations to nutrient deprivation, redox imbalances and ER stress. ISR genes are upregulated in stressed cells, primarily by the bZIP transcription factor ATF4 through its recruitment to cis-regulatory C/EBP:ATF response elements (CAREs) together with a dimeric partner of uncertain identity. Here we show that C/EBP:ATF4 heterodimers, but not C/EBP:ATF4 dimers, are the predominant CARE binding species in stressed cells. C/EBP and ATF4 associate with genomic CAREs in a mutually-dependent manner and co-regulate many ISR genes. By contrast, the C/EBP family members C/EBP and CHOP were largely dispensable for induction of stress genes. Cebpg/ MEFs proliferate poorly and exhibit oxidative stress due to reduced glutathione levels and impaired expression of several glutathione biosynthesis pathway genes. Cebpg/ mice (C57BL/6 background) display reduced body size and microphthalmia, similar to ATF4-null animals. In addition, C/EBP-deficient newborns die from atelectasis and respiratory failure which can be mitigated by in utero exposure to the anti-oxidant, N-acetyl-cysteine. Cebpg/ mice on a mixed strain background show improved viability but, upon aging, develop significantly fewer malignant solid tumors compared to WT animals. Our findings identify C/EBP as a novel anti-oxidant regulator and an obligatory ATF4 partner that controls redox homeostasis in normal and cancerous cells.

- Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST Array (ragene10st)
Description
In this study, we analyzed the effects of chronic alcohol consumption on liver repair and regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PHx). Rats were fed a liquid diet containing 36% of total calories derived from ethanol for 5 weeks; corresponding pair-fed calorie-matched controls were fed diets in which ethanol calories were replaced either by carbohydrate or by fat. After 5 weeks, rats were subjected to 70% PHx and liver samples were collected at 1, 6 and 24h after the surgery. The excised liver samples at t=0 served as within-animal controls. We used Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST arrays to obtain global gene expression data from each liver sample (n=4 replicate rats, 72 arrays total).
Publication Title
Chronic ethanol feeding enhances miR-21 induction during liver regeneration while inhibiting proliferation in rats.

Description
Background: Gliomas are the most common type of primary brain tumours, and in this group glioblastomas (GBMs) are the higher-grade gliomas with fast progression and unfortunate prognosis. Two major aspects of glioma biology that contributes to its awful prognosis are the formation of new blood vessels through the process of angiogenesis and the invasion of glioma cells. Despite of advances, two-year survival for GBM patients with optimal therapy is less than 30%. Even in those patients with low-grade gliomas, that imply a moderately good prognosis, treatment is almost never curative. Recent studies have demonstrated the existence of a small fraction of glioma cells with characteristics of neural stem cells which are able to grow in vitro forming neurospheres and that can be isolated in vivo using surface markers such as CD133. The aim of this study was to define the molecular signature of GBM cells expressing CD133 in comparison with non expressing CD133 cells. This molecular classification could lead to the finding of new potential therapeutic targets for the rationale treatment of high grade GBM.
Publication Title
Molecular analysis of ex-vivo CD133+ GBM cells revealed a common invasive and angiogenic profile but different proliferative signatures among high grade gliomas.

Description
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major risk factor for cardioembolic stroke. Anticoagulant drugs are effective in preventing AF-related stroke. However, the high frequency of anticoagulant-associated major bleeding is a major concern particularly when antiplatelet treatment is simultaneously administered. Here, microarray analysis in peripheral blood cells in eight patients with AF and stroke and eight AF subjects without stroke identified a stroke related gene expression pattern. HSPA1B, which encodes for heat-shock protein 70 kDa (Hsp70), was the most differentially expressed gene. This gene was downregulated in stroke subjects, a finding confirmed further in an independent AF cohort of 200 individuals. Hsp70 knock-out (KO) mice subjected to different thrombotic challenges developed thrombosis significantly earlier than their wild-type (WT) counterparts.

Hsp70 protects from stroke in atrial fibrillation patients by preventing thrombosis without increased bleeding risk.

Description
To explore the primary cause of Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Bmi1-null mice, we set out to identify differentially expressed genes by massively parallel sequencing of heart samples from Bmi1f/f;aMHCTM-Cretg/+ mice versus aMHCTM-Cretg/+ control mice (17 weeks postinduction). Overall design: Methods: Heart mRNA profiles of 17-weeks post-induction Bmi1f/f; MHCTM-Cretg/+ mice and MHCTM-Cretg/+ control mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. Sequence reads were pre-processed with Cutadapt 1.2.1, to remove TruSeq adapters and mapped on the mouse transcriptome (Ensembl gene-build GRCm38.v70) using RSEM v1.2.3. The Bioconductor package EdgeR was used to normalize data with TMM and to test for differential expression of genes using GLM.
