Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array (mogene20st)
Description
Mice wild type or knocked-out for the MyD88 gene specifically in liver, were recruited for this expression profiling experiment. Each group of mice (WT versus LKO) were fed with a control diet or a high fat diet. Then mice were sacrificed and liver samples form were processed for RNA extraction. Total liver RNA of each sample was then pooled with those of the same group and treatment for microarray hybridization.

Description
Uterine double conditional inactivation of Smad2 and Smad3 in mice results in endometrial dysregulation, infertility, and uterine cancer. Smad2/3 cKO mice demonstrate abnormal expression of genes involved in inflammation, cell-cycle checkpoint, migration, steroid biosynthesis, and SMAD1/5-driven genes. We performed RNA-sequencing to identify the gene expression differences between the uterine epithelium of control and Smad2/3 cKO. To control for estrous cycle variations, the uterine epithelium was collected from mice at 0.5 dpc. Global gene expression profiles of Smad2/3 cKO versus control mice was analyzed. Our RNA sequencing analysis was performed at 6 weeks of life and already showed significant differences in migratory (Agr2,Slit2) and inflammatory (Ccl20, Crispld2) markers between Smad2/3 cKO and control mice. Overall design: Two group comparison: uterine epithelium of control and Smad2/3 cKO mice. We generated a conditional knockout of Smad2/3 in the uterus and demonstrated that Smad2/3 plays a critical role in the endometrium, with disruption resulting in pubertal-onset uterine hyperplasia and ultimately fatal uterine cancer.

Description
Anticipating the risk for infectious disease during space exploration and habitation is a critical factor to ensure safety, health and performance of the crewmembers. As a ubiquitous environmental organism that is occasionally part of the human flora, Pseudomonas aeruginosa could pose a health hazard for the immuno-compromised astronauts. In order to gain insights in the behavior of P. aeruginosa in spaceflight conditions, two spaceflight-analogue culture systems, i.e. the rotating wall vessel (RWV) and the random position machine (RPM), were used. Microarray analysis of P. aeruginosa PAO1 grown in the low shear modeled microgravity (LSMMG) environment of the RWV compared to the normal gravity control (NG), revealed a regulatory role for AlgU (RpoE). Specifically, P. aeruginosa cultured in LSMMG exhibited increased alginate production and up-regulation of AlgU-controlled transcripts, including those encoding stress-related proteins. This study also shows the involvement of Hfq in the LSMMG response, consistent with its previously identified role in the Salmonella LSMMG- and spaceflight response. Furthermore, cultivation in LSMMG increased heat- and oxidative stress resistance and caused a decrease in the culture oxygen transfer rate. Interestingly, the global transcriptional response of P. aeruginosa grown in the RPM was similar to that in NG. The possible role of differences in fluid mixing between the RWV and RPM is discussed, with the overall collective data favoring the RWV as the optimal model to study the LSMMG-response of suspended cells. This study represents a first step towards the identification of specific virulence mechanisms of P. aeruginosa activated in response to spaceflight-analogue conditions, and could direct future research regarding the risk assessment and prevention of Pseudomonas infections for the crew in flight and the general public.

Description
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are transforming growth factor (TGF) family members that regulate the post-implantation and mid-gestation stages of pregnancy. In this study we discovered that signaling via activin-like kinase 3 (ALK3/BMPR1A), a BMP type 1 receptor, is necessary for blastocyst attachment. To understand the role of ALK3 in the luminal uterine epithelium, we obtained the gene expression profiles of isolated luminal uterine epithelium from 3.5dpc control and Alk3 cKO mice.

Description
The rapid development in septic patients of features of marked immunosuppression associated with increased risk of nosocomial infections and mortality represents the rational for the initiation of immune targeted treatments in sepsis. However, as there is no clinical sign of immune dysfunctions, the current challenge is to develop biomarkers that will help clinicians identify the patients that would benefit from immunotherapy and monitor its efficacy. Using an in vitro model of endotoxin tolerance (ET), a pivotal feature of sepsis-induced immunosuppression in monocytes, we identified using gene expression profiling by microarray a panel of transcripts associated with the development of ET which expression was restored after immunostimulation with interferon-gamma (IFN-). These results were confirmed by qRT-PCR. Importantly, this short-list of markers was further evaluated in patients. Of these transcripts, six (TNFAIP6, FCN1, CXCL10, GBP1, CXCL5 and PID1) were differentially expressed in septic shock patients blood compared to healthy blood upon ex vivo LPS stimulation and were restored by IFN-. In this study, by combining a microarray approach in an in vitro model and a validation in clinical samples, we identified a panel of six transcripts that could be used for the identification of septic patients eligible for IFNg therapy. The potential value of these markers should now be evaluated in a larger cohort of patients. Upon favorable results, they could serve as stratification tools prior to immunostimulatory treatment and to monitor drug efficacy.

Description
Neural crest development is orchestrated by a complex and still poorly understood gene regulatory network. Premigratory neural crest is induced at the lateral border of the neural plate by the combined action of signaling molecules and transcription factors such as AP2, Gbx2, Pax3 and Zic1. Among them, Pax3 and Zic1 are both necessary and sufficient to trigger a complete neural crest developmental program. However, their gene targets in the neural crest regulatory network remain unknown. Here, through a transcriptome analysis of frog microdissected neural border, we identified an extended gene signature for the premigratory neural crest, and we defined novel potential members of the regulatory network. This signature includes 34 novel genes, as well as 44 known genes expressed at the neural border. Using another microarray analysis which combined Pax3 and Zic1 gain-of-function and protein translation blockade, we uncovered 25 Pax3 and Zic1 direct targets within this signature. We demonstrated that the neural border specifiers Pax3 and Zic1 are direct upstream regulators of neural crest specifiers Snail1/2, Foxd3, Twist1, and Tfap2b. In addition, they may modulate the transcriptional output of multiple signaling pathways involved in neural crest development (Wnt, Retinoic Acid) through the induction of key pathway regulators (Axin2 and Cyp26c1). We also found that Pax3 could maintain its own expression through a positive autoregulatory feedback loop. These hierarchical inductions, feedback loops, and pathway modulation provide novel tools to understand the neural crest induction network.
