Description
Microsatellite instability (MSI), caused by defective mismatch repair, is observed in a subset of colorectal cancers (CRCs). We evaluated somatic mutations in microsatellite repeats of genes chosen based on reduced expression in MSI CRC and existence of a coding mononucleotide repeat.

Description
Recently, attenuated Semliki Forest virus vector VA7 completely eliminated type I interferon (IFN) unresponsive human U87 glioma xenografts while IFN responsive mouse GL261 and CT-2A gliomas proved refractory to the oncolytic virotherapy. Here we describe in two clones of a well established Balb/c mouse tumor cell line, CT26 murine colon carcinoma, diametrically opposed IFN responsiveness and sensitivity to oncolytic virus. Both CT26WT and CT26LacZ clones secreted biologically active type I IFN in vitro upon infection but virus replication was self-limiting only in CT26WT cells. Total transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq) and western blotting experiments revealed that in sharp contrast to CT26LacZ cells, CT26WT cells had strong constitutive expression of 56 different genes associated with pattern recognition and type I interferon signaling pathways, spanning two reported anti-RNA virus gene signatures and22 genes that have been reported to have direct anti-Alphaviral activity. Correspondingly, only CT26LacZ tumors were infectable in vivo, resulting in rapid central necrosis of the tumors by 96 hours post infection and complete tumor eradication both in immunocompetent and in SCID mice. CT26LacZ tumor eradication by oncolysis induced 100% protective immunity against homologous CT26LacZ challenge but only 50% protection against heterologous CT26WT challenge, indicating LacZ immune dominance over shared antigens. We believe the two clone CT26 system described herein constitutes a challenging yet realistic model for clonally and immunologically heterogeneous cancer where a strong therapy efficacy bias toward sensitive tumor subpopulations might falsely predict therapeutic success on a broad patient scale highlighting the necessity of successful pre-screening for responsive tumors. Overall design: RNA-Seq in CT26 tumor cell line

Description
Therapeutic hypothermia is a clinically effective treatment for various hypoxic and ischemic conditions, but the associated molecular mechanisms remain unclear. To gain insight into hypothermia-induced transcriptional response, mouse embryonic fibroblasts were exposed to mild hypothermia (32C) or normothermia (37C) for increasing time periods. We aimed to identify genes with temporally near-monotonic response as the most obvious candidates for mediating the therapeutic effects of hypothermia.

Description
Mutations in TGFBR2, a component of the transforming growth factor (TGF)- signaling pathway, occur in high-frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC). In mouse models, Tgfbr2 inactivation in the intestinal epithelium accelerates the development of malignant intestinal tumors in combination with disruption of the Wnt--catenin pathway. However, no studies have further identified the genes influenced by TGFBR2 inactivation following disruption of the Wnt--catenin pathway. We previously described CDX2P-G19Cre;Apcflox/flox mice, which is stochastically null for Apc in the colon epithelium. In this study, we generated CDX2P-G19Cre;Apcflox/flox;Tgfbr2flox/flox mice, with simultaneous loss of Apc and Tgfbr2. These mice developed tumors, including adenocarcinoma in the proximal colon. We compared gene expression profiles between tumors of the two types of mice using microarray analysis.

Description
To explore functionally crucial tumor-suppressive (TS)-miRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we performed integrative function- and expression-based screenings of TS-miRNAs in six HCC cell lines. The screenings identified seven miRNAs, which showed growth-suppressive activities through the overexpression of each miRNA and were endogenously downregulated in HCC cell lines. Further expression analyses using a large panel of HCC cell lines and primary tumors demonstrated four miRNAs, miR-101, -195, -378 and -497, as candidate TS-miRNAs frequently silenced in HCCs. Among them, two clustered miRNAs miR-195 and miR-497 showed significant growth-suppressive activity with induction of G1 arrest. Comprehensive exploration of their targets using Argonute2-immunoprecipitation-deep-sequencing (Ago2-IP-seq) and genome-wide expression profiling after their overexpression, successfully identified a set of cell-cycle regulators, including CCNE1, CDC25A, CCND3, CDK4, and BTRC. Our results suggest the molecular pathway regulating cell cycle progression to be integrally altered by downregulation of miR-195 and miR-497 expression, leading to aberrant cell proliferation in hepatocarcinogenesis. Identification of miR-195 and miR-497 target genes by sequencing Ago2-binding mRNAs and total mRNAs of miR-195 or miR-497 overexpressed, or non-treated Hep G2 cell. Overall design: Deep sequencing of RNAs in Ago2-IP fraction and mRNAs extracted from miR-195 or miR-497 overexpressed, or non-treated Hep G2 cell.

Description
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the most effective therapy for morbid obesity, but it has a ~20% failure rate. We used our established RYGB model in diet-induced obese (DIO) Sprague-Dawley rats, which reproduces human bi-phasic body weight (BW) loss pattern, to determine mechanisms contributing to success (RGYB-S) or failed (RYGB-F) RYGB. DIO rats were randomized to RYGB, sham operated Obese, and sham operated obese pair fed-linked to RYGB (PF) groups. BW, caloric intake (CI) and fecal output (FO) were recorded daily for 90 days, food efficiency (FE) was calculated, and morphologic changes were determined. Gut, adipose and thyroid hormones were measured in plasma. Mitochondrial respiratory complexes in skeletal muscle, expression of energy-related hypothalamic and fat peptides, receptors and enzymes were quantified. A 25% failure rate occurred. RYGB-S, RYGB-F and PF rats vs. Obese showed rapid BW decrease, followed by sustained BW loss in RYGB-S. RYGB-F and PF gradually increased BW. Expression profiling of both CNS (hypothalamus) and peripheral tissues (subcutaneous abdominal fat) strongly supported the involvement of a number of metabolic and feeding-related genes in the differential outcomes.

Description
To investigate the differences of transcriptional activities between AUG-initiated c-Myc and CUG-initiated c-Myc , we performed a transcriptomic analysis using high throoughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Overall design: Total RNA extracted from KMST6 fibroblast cells stably expressing AUG-initiated c-Myc, CUG-initiated c-Myc, and empty vector (negative control) was subjected to RNA-seq analysis. The sequencing libraries generated from the RNA were analyzed by Illumina Hiseq 4000. The sequencing reads were trimmed for adaptor sequence, and low-complexity or low-quality reads were removed. Subsequently, the sequencing reads were aligned to the human reference GRCh38 genome using Gencode v27 annotations by STAR. Read counts per gene were quantified using the HTSeq Python package.
