- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
This series represents expression profiles of 34 non-seminoma germ cell tumors (NSGCTs) from patients who received cisplatin based chemotherarpy for treatment of their disease for whom full clinical follow-up information was available. These specimens were used as a validation set to test outcome prediction models using a subset of previously profiled GCT specimens (see GEO accession #GSE3218).
Publication Title
Identification and validation of a gene expression signature that predicts outcome in adult men with germ cell tumors.

Description
A major barrier to research on Parkinsons disease (PD) is inaccessibility of diseased tissue for study. One solution is to derive induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from patients with PD and differentiate them into neurons affected by disease. We created an iPSC model of PD caused by triplication of SNCA encoding -synuclein. -Synuclein dysfunction is common to all forms of PD, and SNCA triplication leads to fully penetrant familial PD with accelerated pathogenesis. After differentiation of iPSCs into neurons enriched for midbrain dopaminergic subtypes, those from the patient contain double -synuclein protein compared to those from an unaffected relative, precisely recapitulating the cause of PD in these individuals. A measurable biomarker makes this model ideal for drug screening for compounds that reduce levels of -synuclein, and for mechanistic experiments to study PD pathogenesis.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array (mogene20st)
Description
The BcA86 strain is a unique recombinant congenic strain created from parental strains A/J and C57BL/6J. Naive mice from the BcA86 strain have a lung responsiveness phenotype resembling mice from airway hyperresponsive strain A/J. However, majority of the BcA86 genome is from the hyporesponsive strain C57BL/6J. Our goal was to identify the genomic regions that are associated with this BcA86 phenotype. Using F2 mice generated from BcA86 backcrossed to C57BL/6J, we identified a QTL for airway hyperresponsiveness on mouse chromosome 12. We validated the importance of mouse chromosome 12 in airway responsiveness using a chromosome 12 substitution strain (CSS12) which contains A/J chromosome 12 on a C57BL/6J background. The CSS12 strain also had a lung responsiveness phenotype similar to A/J. We selected genes within our QTL as candidates for airway hyperresponsiveness if they contained a deleterious coding variant (based on PROVEAN analysis) or if they were differently expressed between hyperresponsive (A/J, BcA86, CSS12) and hyporesponsive (C57BL/6J) strains.

Gene expression was studied from the blood derived RNAs of the Finnish family members as well as from 10 controls using GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus2 (Affymetrix). Eight out of 10 family members in the expression analysis are heterozygous for the NPAT c.2437-2438delAG, three of which are NLPHL cases.

Description
In many mammals, halogenated aromatic hydrocarbon (HAH) exposure causes wasting syndrome, defined as lethal weight loss as a result of severe and persistent hypophagia. The most potent HAH in causing wasting is 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo--dioxin (TCDD), which exerts its toxic effects through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) a transcription factor. Because TCDD toxicity is thought to predominantly arise from dysregulation of AHR-transcribed genes, we hypothesized that wasting syndrome is due to TCDD-induced dysregulation of genes involved in regulation of food-intake. We therefore focused on the hypothalamus, as it is the regulatory center of food-intake and energy balance in the central nervous system. We profiled mRNA abundance in hypothalamic tissue from two rat strains with widely differing sensitivities to wasting syndrome: TCDD-sensitive Long-Evans rats and TCDD-resistant Han/Wistar rats, 23 hours after exposure to TCDD (100 g/kg) or corn oil vehicle. We found that TCDD exposure caused minimal transcriptional dysregulation effects in the hypothalamus, with only 6 genes changed in Long-Evans rats and 15 genes in Han/Wistar rats. Two of the most dysregulated genes were Cyp1a1 and Nqo1, which are induced by TCDD across a wide range of tissues and are considered sensitive markers of TCDD exposure. The minimal response of the hypothalamic transcriptome to a lethal dose of TCDD at an early time-point suggests that the hypothalamus is not the predominant site of initial events leading to hypophagia and associated wasting. TCDD may affect feeding behaviour via events upstream or downstream of the hypothalamus, and further work is required to evaluate this at the level of individual hypothalamic nuclei and subregions.
