Human CD14+ monocytes were isolated and grown in GM-CSF and IL-4 for six days. The cells were then infected with measles virus, Chicago-1 strain, and RNA was isolated at 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours post-infection.

View SamplesUlcerative colitis (UC) and Crohns disease (CD) are inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) with variable, overlapping clinical features and complex pathophysiologies. To identify pathogenic processes underlying these disease subtypes, using single endoscopic pinch biopsies to estabolish 36 expression profiles, we elucidated gene expression patterns of active and inactive areas of UC and CD, and compared these to infectious colitis and healthy controls.

View SamplesGene expression was measured on the Affymetrix platform in primary xenografts, xenograft-derived cell lines, secondary xenografts, normal lung, and primary tumors obtained from chemotherapy naive Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC). The SCLC primary xenografts were serially propagated in vivo in immunodeficient mice. Cell lines were derived from each xenograft and grown for 6 months using conventional tissue culture conditions. Secondary xenografts were obtained from cell cultures by re-implantation in immunodeficient mice. Such SCLC laboratory models were analyzed along with conventional SCLC cell lines and the derivative secondary xenografts, with normal lung and primary tumors, to assess irreversible gene expression changes induced by culturing conditions.

View SamplesTo study feasibility of gene expression profiling from FFPE tissues using NuGen amplified mRNA hybridized on Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays, we designed a pilot study utilizing samples from prostate cancer cohort. We selected samples from large-scale epidemiologic studies and clinical trials representative of a wide variety of fixation times, block ages and block storage conditions.

View SamplesWe performed gene expression profiling of laser capture microdissected normal non-neoplastic prostate (cystoprostatectomies) epithelial tissue and compared it to non-transformed and neoplastic low and high grade prostate epithelial tissue from radical prostatectomies, each with its immediately surrounding stroma.

View SamplesIdentification of intrathymic Eomes+ natural Th1 cells creates a novel idea that there is more than one way for the generation of innate CD4 T cells. To more deeply characterize this type of innate T cells, we compared the gene expression profile between nTh1 cells generated in CIITAtg mice and classic Th1 cells differentiated from naive CD4 T cells in Th1-polarizing condition.
Thymic low affinity/avidity interaction selects natural Th1 cells.

View SamplesWe undertook an integrative technological approach to compare miRNA detection capability of three high-throughput commercial platforms. Overall design: We artificially introduced human precursor, 2’-O-methyl modified and mature spiked-in miRNAs in a controlled fashion into native human placenta total RNA.
Differences in microRNA detection levels are technology and sequence dependent.

View SamplesThis study uses spiked-in transcript in order to compares various bioinformatics approaches and tools to assemble, quantify abundance and detect differentially expressed transcripts using RNA-Seq data. Mouse total RNA seq was extracted from embryonic stem cells (ES) before (designated as day 0) and four days after the addition of retinoic acid. 48 spikes were made in vitro from plasmid constructs and added to the total RNA in different concentrations (each mix has a set of different spike concentrations, see paper''s method). We found that detection of differential expression at the gene level is acceptable, yet on the transcript-isofom level all tools tested were lacking accuracy and precision. Overall design: Mouse total RNA was extracted from embryonic stem cells (ES) before (designated as day 0) and four days after the addition of retinoic acid (RA) (designated as day 4). Mouse spike-ins consisting of 48 different mouse RNA transcripts were generated in vitro from plasmid constructs and added to the total RNA. 23 of the spike-ins originate from 10 different locus regions, so that each locus is represented by at least two different transcripts. The remaining 25 spike-ins represent different loci.
