Description
To identify genes regulated by Rx3 during optic vesicle morphogenesis, adult zebrafish carriers of a null rx3 mutation were mated. Before 13 hours post fertilization (hpf), the earliest time point at which optic vesicle evagination phenotypes could be reliably detected, offspring were phenotypically separated into pools comprising of mutants with an absence of optic vesicles or siblings exhibiting a wild-type phenotype. Three replicates of pooled RNA samples from 13 hpf eyeless mutants (rx3-/-) or phenotypically wild-type siblings (rx3+/+ or rx3+/-), and one replicate of 13 hpf wild-type zebrafish larva were collected for whole transcriptome sequencing. Overall design: Whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed on zebrafish rx3-/- mutants, wild-type siblings and wild-type AB strains at 13 hpf

Description
GM-CSF positve CD4 cells are found at sites of inflammation. The purpose of this study was to understand their transcriptional profile relative to known Th1 and Th17 subsets. Overall design: Human CD4 T cells were isolated by magnetic negative selection and activated with PMA and ionomycin. A cytokine capture assay was used to isolate CD45RA-positive, cytokine negative, IFN-gamma-single-positive, IL-17A-single-positive, GM-CSF-single positive and IL-17A-GM-CSF-double positive cells.

Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are electrical pacemakers and mediators of neuromuscular neurotransmission in the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) arise within the ICC lineage due to activating KIT/PDGFRA mutations. In this study we developed a method for isolation of human ICC by immunolabeling and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). Briefly, human gastric musculature was dissociated and incubated with antibodies against CD45, FCER1A, CD11B, KIT, and CD34. ICC (defined as HP-KIT+CD34- cells), NOT ICC (defined as HP-KIT-CD34- cells), and hematopoietic (HP) cells (defined as HP+ cells) were isolated using FACS. Microarray was performed on ICC, NOT ICC, HP+ cells, and unfractionated gastric tunica muscularis. This study utilized micorarray for the phenotypic characterization of FACS-sorted human ICC, allowing comparison of ICC to other cells of the gastric musculature, including GIST.

Description
The goal of this study was to determine the transcriptional changes associated with breast cancer cells undergoing vascular mimicry in a 3D assay. Two breast cancer cell lines were plated on matrigel in the presence or absence of serum. MDA-MB-231 cells undergo vascular mimicry on matrigel in the absence of serum, MDA-MB-453 cells do not. Overall design: Four samples were analyzed. MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-453 cells were plated for 24 hours on matrigel in the presence or absence of serum. MDA-MB-231 cells undergo vascular mimicry when plated on matrigel in the absence of serum, while MDA-MB-453 cells do not.

Description
Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) colonizes the large intestine and causes attaching and effacing lesions (AE). Most of the genes involved in the formation of AE lesions are encoded within a chromosomal pathogenicity island termed the Locus of Enterocyte Effacement (LEE). The LysR-like transcriptional factor QseA regulates the LEE by binding directly to the regulatory region of ler. Here, we performed transcriptome analyses comparing WT EHEC and the isogenic qseA mutant in order to elucidate the extent of QseAs role in gene regulation in EHEC. The following results compare genes that were up-regulated and down-regulated ! 2-fold in the qseA mutant strain compared to the WT strain. At mid-exponential growth, 222 genes were up-regulated and 1874 were downregulated. At late-exponential growth, a total of 55 genes were up-regulated and 605 genes were down-regulated. During mid-exponential growth, QseA represses its own transcription, whereas during late-logarithmic growth, QseA activates expression of the LEE genes as well as non-LEE encoded effector proteins. During both growth phases, several genes carried in O-islands, were activated by QseA, whereas genes involved in cell metabolism were repressed. We also performed electrophoretic mobility shift assays, competition experiments, and DNAseI footprints, and the results suggested that QseA directly binds both the ler proximal and distal promoters, its own promoter, as well as promoters of genes encoded in EHEC-specific O-islands. Additionally, we mapped the transcriptional start site of qseA, leading to the identification of two promoter sequences. Taken together, these results indicate that QseA acts as a global regulator in EHEC, coordinating expression of virulence genes.

Description
Bacterial pathogens must be able to both recognize suitable niches within the host for colonization and successfully compete with commensal flora for nutrients in order to establish infection. Ethanolamine (EA) is a major component of mammalian and bacterial membranes and may be used by pathogens as a carbon and/or nitrogen source in the gastrointestinal tract. We examined how EA influences gene expression in the human pathogen enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EHEC). Our results indicate EA is not only important for nitrogen metabolism, but that EA is used in cell-to-cell signaling to activate virulence gene expression. Genes encoding for the global regulatory proteins QseC, QseE, and QseA, as well as for attaching and effacement (AE) lesion formation and Shiga toxin are differentially regulated when EHEC is grown with micromolar concentrations of EA. We also constructed a deletion of eutR that encodes the regulator of the eut (EA utilization) operon and examined virulence gene expression. These results suggest that EutR is important in regulating gene expression in response to EA, but that EA signaling does not occur solely through EutR. This is the first report linking EA to cell-to-cell signaling and pathogenesis.
