Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Transforming growth factor (TGF)- plays crucial roles in embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis by eliciting various cellular responses in target cells. TGF- signaling is principally mediated through receptor-activated Smad proteins, which regulate expression of target genes in cooperation with other DNA-binding transcriptionfactors (Smad cofactors). In this study, we found that the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Olig1 is a Smad cofactor involved in TGF-b-induced cell motility. Knockdown of Olig1 attenuated TGF--induced cell motility in chamber migration and wound healing assays. In contrast, Olig1 knockdown had no effect on bone morphogenetic protein-induced cell motility, TGF--induced cytostasis or epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Furthermore, we observed that cooperation of Smad2/3 with Olig1 is regulated by a peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase, Pin1. TGF-b-induced cell motility, induction of Olig1-regulated genes, and physical interaction between Smad2/3 and Olig1 were all inhibited after knockdown of Pin1, indicating a novel mode of regulation of Smad signaling. We also found that Olig1 interacts with the L3 loop of Smad3. Using a synthetic peptide corresponding to the L3 loop of Smad3, we succeeded in selectively inhibiting TGF-b-induced cell motility. These findings may lead to a new strategy for selective regulation of TGF-b-induced cellular responses.

Description
We previously found that mice with heterozygous knockout of the alpha-isoform of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (alpha-CaMKII HKO mice) show various dysregulated behaviors, including cyclic variations in locomotor activity (LA), suggesting that alpha-CaMKII HKO mice may serve as an animal model showing infradian oscillation of mood. We performed gene expression microarray analysis of dentate gyrus from alpha-CaMKII HKO mice. Mice were selected for the sampling such that their LA levels varied among the mice.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
DNA methylation has been considered to play an important role during myogenic differentiation. In terminal differentiation of myoblasts, chronological alteration of DNA methylation status was poorly understood. Using Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChips, we validated genome wide DNA methylation profiles of human myoblast differentiation models. To investigate correlation between DNA methylation and gene expression, we also assessed gene expression of myoblasts with GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 array.

Description
The SSG1-1 mutation was an allele of the YHR032W gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The SSG1-1 mutants contained higher levels of AdoMet than wild type (WT). SSG1-1 single mutants were shown to have a long lifespan, suggesting that the Ssg1-1 protein might have a role in longevity.

- Affymetrix Porcine Genome Array (porcine)
Description
We aimed to identify a reprogramming factor in mammalian oocytes. DJ-1 is one candidate gene of the factor. Inhibition of DJ-1 function in nuclear transfer embryos affected developmental abilities. The downstream effect of this DJ-1 inhibition was examined using microarrays.
