Description
Mutant p53 proteins, resulting from the missense mutations of the TP53 tumor suppressor gene, possess gain-of-function activities and are among the most robust oncoproteins in human tumors. They are potentially important therapeutic targets. No studies to date have distinguished common, therapeutically relevant mutant p53 gain-of-function effects from effects specific to different mutant variants and cell backgrounds. here we performed RNA-seq analysisin MDA-MB-231 (R280K) upon silencing TP53 or the control siRNA. Overall design: MDA-MB-231 (R280K) cell line was transfected with control or p53 siRNA.So The study comprises one experimental cell line,in triplicate.

Description
Hydrogen peroxide is known to promote skin keratinocyte migration, although the mechanism of action is unclear. In an attempt to identify signaling pathways regulated by hydrogen peroxide in the skin, 3 day post fertilized (dpf) zebrafish larvae (nacre strain) were treated with 3mM hydrogen peroxide for 2 hours and subjected to RNA-seq analyses. Pools of about 1000 embryos for each of three biological replicates were derived from 5 independent mating pairs and raised to larval stages until 3 dpf. All larvae were subsequently homogenized in Trizol and total RNA was extracted using a chloroform extraction protocol treated with DNAse. Messenger RNA (mRNA) was subsequently purified from total RNA using biotin-tagged poly dT oligonucleotides and streptavidin-coated magnetic beads, followed by quality control using an Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer (values >7 were used for sequencing). The poly(A)-tailed mRNA samples were fragmented and double-stranded cDNA generated by random priming for deep sequencing studies. Overall design: 6 samples total were analyzed. 3 untreated, and 3 hydrogen peroxide treated (3mM, 2hr)

Description
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene that impair function of this cAMP-regulated Cl- channel. In the small intestine, loss of CFTR function creates a dehydrated, acidic luminal environment which is believed to cause an accumulation of mucus, a phenotype characteristic of CF. CF mice have an innate immune response and impaired intestinal transit as well. We investigated whether lubiprostone, which activates the CLC2 Cl- channel, would improve the CF intestinal phenotype.

Description
Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS), a terminal cell cycle block countering (pre)neoplastic lesions, is characterised on the molecular level by trimethylated histone H3 lysine 9 (h3K9me3), a transcriptionally repressive chromatin mark linked to silencing of S-phase-promoting genes. Whether H3K9-governed chromatin remodelling influences anticancer treatment-induced senescence (TIS) and whether functional control of this mark impacts on treatment outcome is not known. We used global gene expression profiling by microarrays to gain insight into the molecular responses of Emu-myc; Suv39h1-/- B-cell lymphoma cells to senescence-inducing anticancer agent Adriamycin (ADR).

Description
The expansion, trafficking and functional effectiveness of adoptively transferred CD8+ T-cells play a critical role in mediating effective anti-tumor immunity. However, the mechanisms which program the highly proliferative and functional state of CD8+ T-cells are not completely understood. We hypothesized that IL-12, a cytokine commonly induced by TLR activation, could enhance T-cell priming by altering responsiveness to antigen and cytokines. Priming of tumor specific CD8+ T-cells in the presence of IL-12 induced the acquisition of a 'polyfunctional' effector response and increased the generation of memory cells. Moreover, IL-12 priming also promoted high levels of the IL-2 receptor alpha-chain (CD25) and robust IL-2 mediated activation of STAT5. This sensitivity to IL-2 translated into enhanced in vivo proliferation of adoptively transferred CD8+ T-cells. Furthermore, real-time, in vivo imaging of T-cell trafficking confirmed the ability of IL-12 priming to drive in vivo proliferation. IL-12 priming enhanced the anti-tumor function of adoptively transferred cells by reducing established subcutaneous tumor burden, and significantly increasing survival in an established intracranial tumor model. Finally, IL-12 priming of human PBMCs generates tumor specific T-cells phenotypically and functionally similar to IL-12 primed Pmel-1 T-cells. These results highlight IL-12 as an important mediator of CD8+ T-cell effector function and anti-tumor immunity.

Description
Accumulating data indicate translation plays a role in cancer biology, particularly its rate limiting stage of initiation. Despite this evolving recognition, the function and importance of specific translation initiation factors is unresolved. The eukaryotic translation initiation complex eIF4F consists of eIF4E and eIF4G at a 1:1 ratio. Although it is expected that they display interdependent functions, several publications suggest independent mechanisms. This study is the first to directly assess the relative contribution of eIF4F components to the expressed cellular proteome, transcription factors, microRNAs, and phenotype in a malignancy known for extensive protein synthesis- multiple myeloma (MM). Previously, we have shown that eIF4E/eIF4GI attenuation (siRNA/ Avastin) deleteriously affected MM cells' fate and reduced levels of eIF4E/eIF4GI established targets. Here, we demonstrated that eIF4E/eIF4GI indeed have individual influences on cell proteome. We used an objective, high throughput assay of mRNA microarrays to examine the significance of eIF4E/eIF4GI silencing to several cellular facets such as transcription factors, microRNAs and phenotype. We showed different imprints for eIF4E and eIF4GI in all assayed aspects. These results promote our understanding of the relative contribution and importance of eIF4E and eIF4GI to the malignant phenotype and shed light on their function in eIF4F translation initiation complex.

The transition in developmental control from maternal to zygotic gene products marks a critical step in early embryogenesis. Here, we use GRO-seq analysis to map the genome-wide RNA polymerase distribution during the Drosophila maternal to zygotic transition. This analysis unambiguously identifies the zygotic transcriptome, and provides insight into its mechanisms of regulation. Overall design: Two replicates of GRO-seq at each time point.
