View SamplesThe role of Eph/ephrin signaling in numerous biological processes has been established. However, Eph/ephrin signaling has been shown to have complex role in tumor progression. The role of EphB2 receptor in the progression of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) has not been studied before.

View SamplesWe performed a transcriptomic analysis to identify genes differentially transcribed in the maize stem upon corn borer feeding and treatment with insects regurgitates by using the MACE (Massive Analysis of cDNA Ends) technology. Overall design: Two comparisons were performed: Insect chewing vs control and Regurgitate+wounding vs wounding in three biological replicates per treatment

View SamplesOrganismal function is, to a great extent, determined by interactions among their fundamental building blocks, the cells. In?this work, we studied the cell-cell interactome of fetal placental trophoblast cells and maternal endometrial stromal cells, using single-cell transcriptomics. The placental interface mediates the interaction between two semiallogenic individuals, the mother and the fetus, and is thus the epitome of cell interactions. To study these, we inferred the cell-cell interactome? by assessing the gene expression of receptor-ligand pairs across cell types. Moreover, we find that the expression of G-protein coupled receptors is highly cell-type?specific, implying that ligand-receptor profiles could be a reliable tool for cell type identification. Furthermore, we find that uterine decidual cells represent a cell-cell interaction hub with a relatively large?number of potential incoming and outgoing signals. Decidual cells differentiate from their precursors, the endometrial stromal fibroblasts, during uterine preparation for pregnancy. We show that decidualization (even in vitro) enhances the ability ?to communicate with the fetus, as most of the receptors and ligands up-regulated during decidualization have their counterpart expressed in trophoblast cells. Among the signals transmitted, growth factors and immune signals dominate, suggesting a delicate balance of enhancing and suppressive signals. Finally, this study provides a rich resource of gene ?expression profiles of term intravillous and extravillous trophoblasts, including the transcriptome of the multinucleated syncytiotrophoblast. Overall design: We sequenced mRNA from primary human endometrial stromal fibroblasts and in vitro human decidualized stromal fibroblasts.

View SamplesThe role of murine peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-delta (PPARd) in mammary tumorigenesis was assessed. Microarrays were used to analyse global gene expression to determine changes in MMTV-PPARd transgenic mice versus wild-type mice and the effect of GW501516.

View SamplesIn order to identify genes regulated by long noncoding RNA H19 in the ovary, we performed RNA-Seq with WT and H19KO ovaries from 8-week old mice. Among the differentially expressed genes, we found anti-mullerian hormone (AMH), which potentially plays an important role in regulating ovarian follicular development, might be a target of H19 mediated regulation. Overall design: Ovaries were harvested from 8-week old WT and H19KO mice, followed by total RNA extraction, library preparation and RNA-seq analysis to compare gene expression profiles between WT and H19KO conditions.
