Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
We report RNA-sequencing data of 12 platelet samples isolated from four healthy individuals and incubated with either E. coli K12, E. coli O18 or no bacteria. This dataset highlights the differential effect of bacteria on spliced platelet RNA profiles. Overall design: Blood platelets were isolated from whole blood in citrate-coated BD Vacutainers by standard centrifugation and multiple washing steps. Total RNA was extracted from the platelet pellet, subjected to cDNA synthesis and SMARTer amplification, fragmented by Covaris shearing, and prepared for sequencing using the TruSeq Nano DNA Sample Preparation Kit. Subsequently, pooled sample libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. All steps were quality-controlled using Bioanalyzer 2100 with RNA 6000 Picochip, DNA 7500 and DNA High Sensitivity chips measurements. For further downstream analyses, reads were quality-controlled using Trimmomatic, mapped to the human reference genome using STAR, and intron-spanning reads were summarized using HTseq.

- Affymetrix Drosophila Genome 2.0 Array (drosophila2)
Description
Lysine methylation of histones is associated with both transcriptionally active chromatin and with silent chromatin, depending on what residue is modified. Histone methyltransferases and demethylases ensure that histone methylations are dynamic and can vary depending on cell cycle- or developmental stage. KDM4A demethylates H3K36me3, a modification enriched in the 3end of active genes. The genomic targets and the role of KDM4 proteins in development remain largely unknown.

- Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
The JAK2 mutation V617F is detectable in a majority of patients with Ph-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Enforced expression of JAK2 V617F in mice induces myeloproliferation and bone marrow (BM) fibrosis suggesting a causal role for the JAK2 mutant in the pathogenesis of MPN. However, little is known about mechanisms and effector molecules contributing to JAK2 V617F-induced myeloproliferation and fibrosis. Here we show that JAK2 V617F promotes expression of oncostatin M (OSM) in neoplastic myeloid cells. Correspondingly, OSM was found to be overexpressed in the BM and elevated in the serum of patients with JAK2 V617F+ MPN. In addition, OSM secreted by JAK2 V617F+ cells stimulated growth of fibroblasts and microvascular endothelial cells and induced the production of angiogenic and profibrogenic cytokines (HGF, VEGF, and SDF-1) in BM fibroblasts. All effects of MPN cell-derived OSM were blocked by a neutralizing anti-OSM antibody, whereas the production of OSM in MPN cells was effectively suppressed by a pharmacologic JAK2 inhibitor or RNAi-mediated knockdown of JAK2. In summary, JAK2 V617F-mediated upregulation of OSM may contribute to fibrosis, neoangiogenesis, and the cytokine storm observed in JAK2 V617F+ MPN, suggesting that OSM could serve as a novel therapeutic target molecule in these neoplasms.

Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Mammalian cells were grown as multicellular aggregates (spheroids) in an effort to determine the signaling events required for two cellular transformations states; primary foreskin fibroblasts (HFF-2) and glioblastoma cancer (T98G) cells, to survive at room temperature under oxygen and nutrient-deprived conditions for extended periods of time (2 weeks) and subsequently grown out from the arrested state as adherent monolayers. HFF-2 cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 15% fetal bovine serum and 5% carbon dioxide humidified air at 37 degrees C. T98G cells were cultured in EMEM with 10% FBS, 5% non-essential amino acids and 5% carbon dioxide humidified air at 37 degreesC. Monolayers were grown in T-185 flasks to 60% confluency then split into T-185 flasks coated with a 1% agarose mix in a 2:1 media/water ratio. Cells were suspended in 30 ml of supplemented media and grown for 4 days in order to form multicellular spheroids as described previously by our group (J. Cell. Physiol., 206 [2006] 526-536; see GSE1364 and GSE1455 for similar experiments with HEK293 cells). The suspension was removed from the flasks and centrifuged (1500 x g, 2 min) and the media removed. The pellet was returned to the flasks and then placed in vacuum bags (Dri-shield 2000 moisture barrier bag from Surmount Inc., USA; Cat. number 70068), which were sealed immediately under vacuum (Deni Magic Vac, Champion model; Keystone Manufacturing, USA). Vacuum-sealed flasks were stored for 2 weeks (in the dark) at room temperature. Recovery was initiated by removing the flask from the bag and resuspending the spheroids in supplemented media and placing the flasks in a 5% CO2/humidified air incubator maintained at 37 degreesC. Timepoints for transcriptional analysis were monolayer (control), 4 day growth spheroids, 2 week stored spheroids and 7 day growth back to monolayers.

- Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
The Mediator complex is an evolutionary conserved multiprotein complex that plays an essential role in initiating and regulating transcription. Its function is to act as a universal adaptor between RNA Polymerase II and DNA-bound transcription factors to translate regulatory information from activators and repressors to the transcriptional machinery. We have found that the PFT1 gene (which encodes the MED25 subunit of the Mediator complex) is required for the uncompromised expression of both salicylic acid- and jasmonate-dependent defense genes as well as resistance to the leaf-infecting fungal pathogens, Alternaria brassicicola and Botrytis cinerea in Arabidopsis. Surprisingly, we found that the pft1/med25 mutant showed increased resistance to the root infecting pathogen Fusarium oxysporum and that this resistance was independent of classical defense genes. In addition, the over-expression of PFT1 led to increased susceptibility to F. oxysporum. Therefore, to explore this phenomenon further, we wished to use whole genome transcript profiling to identify which genes may be playing a role in pft1/med25-mediated resistance to F. oxysporum.

Description
Jasmonate (JA) signaling plays a key role in mediating both resistance and susceptibility to the root-infecting fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum. Within this system, the roles of the JA-signaling repressor gene family of JASMONATE ZIM-domain (JAZ) genes had not been investigated. By screening JAZ T DNA insertion lines for altered resistance or susceptibility to F. oxysporum, we identified a JAZ7 mutant (jaz7-1D) highly susceptible to F. oxysporum infection. Further analyses revealed jaz7-1D exhibits constitutively active JAZ7 expression, enhanced expression of JA-defense marker genes, and increased sensitivity to JA-inhibition of root elongation. To further explore altered JA-signaling and JA-responses in this mutant, we use whole transcriptome profiling of jaz7-1D versus wild-type (Col-0) plants after mock/control and JA treatment.
