View SamplesTranscriptome analysis of high-grade human ovarian adenocarcinomas. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that two reciprocal pathways, namely oxidative stress response and fibrosis, enable to build a hierarchical cluster of ovarian patients.

View SamplesIn a cohort study of 7 women with primary invasive breast cancer, we obtained a tumor specimen before (biopsy) and after (tumorectomy) 4 cycles of NAC with epirubicine and cyclophosphamide, followed by 4 cycles of taxanes. Total RNA was extracted from tumor specimens and the whole transcriptome was quantified with Affymetrix HuGene1.1ST. Molecular functions changing during chemotherapy were searched.

View Samples10 biopsies before treatment from triple negative patients with complete response were collected. Total RNA was extracted from tumor specimens and the whole transcriptome was quantified with Affymetrix HuGene1.1ST. The biopsies were classified into Good (major or complete) or Poor (absent or minor) therapeutic response subgroup.

View SamplesHuman transcripts can typically be processed at multiple polyadenylation sites to yield mRNA isoforms with distinct 3 ends. A multitude of factors contributes to the choice of individual polyadenylation sites in different cell types and tissues. In this study we have found that the heterogenous ribonucleoprotein C (hnRNP C), an RNA binding protein that was previously linked to splicing and polyadenylation at Alu repeat elements, is a general regulator of pre-mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation. By sequencing mRNA 3 ends from cells expressing normal and reduced levels of hnRNP C we found that transcripts that contain poly(U) tracts around their poly(A) sites respond in a manner indicative of hnRNP C repressing cleavage and polyadenylation. The 3 UTR isoforms whose abundance is modulated by hnRNP C contain U-rich elements and can thereby interact with A/U-rich element binding proteins that have been shown to alter transcript stability, sub-cellular localization and even the localization of the translated proteins.
A comprehensive analysis of 3' end sequencing data sets reveals novel polyadenylation signals and the repressive role of heterogeneous ribonucleoprotein C on cleavage and polyadenylation.

View SamplesPurpose: We observed protein homeostasis modulations when anc-1 is knocked-down. We wanted to measure changes in gene expression profiles following this manipulation. Methods: We treated wild type (strain N2) or polyQ35-YFP (strain AM140) nematodes, which express toxic aggregative proteins that challenge their protein homeostasis, with anc-1 RNAi until day six of adulthood, and compared their gene expression levels to those of untreated worms. Results: The knockdown of anc-1 leads to modified expression levels of hundreds of genes. There is an enrichment of transcription factors and protein homeostasis modulators, such as E3 ubiquitin ligases. Conclusions: anc-1 regulates protection from toxic aggregative proteins, at least partially, by regulating the expression of genes that encode protein homeostasis factors. Overall design: Wild type strain, three repeats; polyQ35-YFP strain, four repeats. Each repeat has two conditions: untreated (EV), and RNAi toward anc-1.

View SamplesTranscriptional variation, also called expression level polymorphism (ELP), contributes to intra-specific phenotypic variation in many organisms. Differentially expressed transcripts are typically enriched for stress-related genes, suggesting that differences in response to the environment are a particularly common point of divergence among gentoypes. Analysis of ELPs also has been suggested as a way to assess unintended consequences of transgene introduction; however, it is important that interpretation of transcriptional changes be performed within the context of potential fitness effects. In these studies we sought to examine differential gene expression in response to salinity for two widely used Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes, Wassilewskija (Ws) and Columbia (Col), and a single gene mutation (glabrous, gl1-1) in the Col background (Col(gl)), in relation to genetic, phenotypic, and fitness differences.

View SamplesMannitol is a putative osmoprotectant contributing to salt tolerance in several species. Arabidopsis plants transformed with the mannose-6-phosphate reductase (M6PR) gene from celery were dramatically more salt tolerant (at 100mM NaCl) as exhibited by reduced salt injury, less inhibition of vegetative growth, and increased seed production relative to the wild type (WT). When treated with 200mM NaCl, transformants produced no seeds, but did bolt, and exhibited less chlorosis/necrosis and greater survival and dry weights than the WT. Without salt there were no M6PR effects on growth or phenotype, but expression levels of 2272 genes were altered. Many fewer differences (1039) were observed between M6PR and WT plants in the presence of salt, suggesting that M6PR pre-conditioned the plants to stress. Previous work suggested that mannitol is an osmoprotectant, but mannitol levels are invariably quite low, perhaps inadequate for osmoprotectant effects. In this study, transcriptome analysis reveals that the M6PR transgene activated the downstream abscisic acid (ABA) pathway by up-regulation of ABA receptor genes (PYL4, PYL5, and PYL6) and down-regulation of protein phosphatase 2C genes (ABI1 and ABI2). In the M6PR transgenic lines there were also increases in transcripts related to redox and cell wall-strengthening pathways. These data indicate that mannitol-enhanced stress tolerance is due at least in part to increased expression of a variety of stress-inducible genes.
