Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
We aimed to investigate the function of syndecan-1 in tumor cell adhesion and migration, with special focus on the importance of its distinct protein domains, to better understand the structure-function relationship of syndecan-1 in tumor progression. We utilized two mesenchymal tumor cell lines which were transfected to stably overexpress full-length syndecan-1 or truncated variants: the 78 which lacks the extracellular domain except the DRKE sequence proposed to be essential for oligomerization, the 77 which lacks the whole extracellular domain, and the RMKKK which serves as a nuclear localization signal. Various bioassays for cell adhesion, chemotaxis, random movement and wound healing were studied. Furthermore we performed gene microarray to analyze the global gene expression pattern influenced by syndecan-1.

- Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
The transcriptomic responses of syndecan-1 silencing in a human mesothelioma cell line was followed with microarray analysis. To project the transcriptome analysis on the full-dimensional picture of cellular regulation, we applied a novel method of network enrichment analysis which elucidated signalling relations between differentially expressed genes and pathways acting via various molecular mechanisms.

- Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Array (zebrafish)
Description
Exposure to environmental contaminants can disrupt normal development of the early vertebrate skeleton. 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) impairs craniofacial skeletal development across many vertebrate species and its effects are especially prominent in early life stages of fish. TCDD activates the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), a transcription factor that mediates most if not all TCDD responses. We investigated the transcriptional response in the developing zebrafish jaw following TCDD exposure using DNA microarrays. Zebrafish larvae were exposed to TCDD at 96 h postfertilization (hpf) and jaw cartilage tissue was harvested for microarray analysis at 1, 2, 4 and 12 h postexposure (hpe). Numerous chondrogenic transcripts were misregulated by TCDD in the jaw. Comparison of transcripts altered by TCDD in jaw with transcripts altered in embryonic heart showed that the transcriptional responses in the jaw and the heart were strikingly different. Sox9b, a critical chondrogenic transcription factor, was the most significantly reduced transcript in the jaw. We hypothesized that the TCDD reduction of sox9b expression plays an integral role in affecting formation of the embryonic jaw. Morpholino knock down of sox9b expression demonstrated that partial reduction of sox9b expression alone was sufficient to produce a TCDD-like jaw phenotype. Heterozygous sox9b deletion mutant embryos were sensitized to TCDD. Lastly, embryos injected with sox9b mRNA and then exposed to TCDD blocked TCDD-induced jaw toxicity in approximately 14% of sox9b-injected embryos. These results suggest that reduced sox9b expression in TCDD-exposed zebrafish embryos contributes to jaw malformation.

- Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Array (zebrafish)
Description
Retinoic acid (RA) and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin activate distinct ligand-dependent transcription factors, and both cause cardiac malformation and heart failure in zebrafish embryos. We hypothesized that they cause this response by hyperactivating a common set of genes critical for heart development. To test this, we used microarrays to measure transcripts changes in hearts isolated from zebrafish embryos 1,2,4 and 12 h after exposure to 1M RA. We used hierarchical clustering to compare the transcriptional responses produced in the embryonic heart by RA and TCDD. We could identify no early responses in common between the two agents. However, at 12 h both treatments produced a dramatic downregulation of a common cluster of cell cycle progression genes, which we term the Cell Cycle Gene Cluster (CCGC). This was associated with a halt in heart growth. These results suggest that RA and TCDD ultimately trigger a common transcriptional response associated with heart failure, but not through the direct activation of a common set of genes. Among the genes rapidly induced by RA was Nr2F5, a member of the COUP-TF family of transcription repressors. We found that induction of Nr2F5 was both necessary and sufficient for the cardiotoxic response to RA.

Description
For analysis of gene expression changes in the zebrafish larvae heart in response to TCDD exposure, three replicate samples of heart tissue were collected at 73, 74, 76 and 84 hours post fertilization from larvae exposed to 1 ng/ml TCDD or vehicle from 72 - 73 hours post fertilization. For analysis of gene expression changes in the extracardiac tissue in response to TCDD exposure, three replicate samples of zebrafish larvae bodies with the heart tissue removed were collected at 73, 74, 76 and 84 hours post fertilization from larvae exposed to 1 ng/ml TCDD or vehicle from 72 - 73 hours post fertilization.
