The aim of the project was to characterize the transcriptional landscape of human HUVEC cells exposed to oxidative stress (oxstress). In order to do so cell cultures have been exposed to 200uM H2O2 for either 16 hours or 36 hours to induce oxstress. Total ribodepleted RNA obtained from both time points have been sequenced and small RNA for the 16 hours time point have been sequenced as well. Datasets have been characterized and overlapped. This entry contains the dataset of small RNA. Overall design: Two conditions are available: control untreated HUVEC cells and HUVEC cells exposed to 200uM H2O2 for 16 hours. Each condition is available in triplicate. All samples underwent two unpooled rounds of sequencing, for a total of 24 samples.

View SamplesRegulatory T (Treg) maintain the tumor microenvironment in an immunosuppressive state preventing effective anti-tumor immune response. A possible strategy to overcome Treg cell suppression focuses on OX40, a costimulatory molecule expressed constitutively by Treg cells while induced in activated effector T (Teff) cells. OX40 stimulation by the agonist mAb OX86 inhibits Treg cell suppression and boosts Teff cell activation. Here we uncover the mechanisms underlying the therapeutic activity of OX86 treatment dissecting its distinct effects on Treg and on effector memory T (Tem) cells, which are the most abundant CD4+ populations strongly expressing OX40 at the tumor site. In response to OX86, tumor-infiltrating Treg cells produced significantly less interleukin 10 (IL-10), possibly in relation to a decrease in the transcription factor IRF1. Tem cells responded to OX86 by upregulating surface CD40L expression, providing a licensing signal to dendritic cells (DCs). The CD40L/CD40 axis was required for Tem cell-mediated in vitro DC maturation and in vivo DC migration. Accordingly, OX86 treatment was no longer therapeutic in CD40 KO mice. In conclusion, following OX40 stimulation, blockade of Treg cell suppression and enhancement of the Tem cell adjuvant effect both concurred to free DCs from immunosuppression and to activate the immune response against the tumor.
Intratumor OX40 stimulation inhibits IRF1 expression and IL-10 production by Treg cells while enhancing CD40L expression by effector memory T cells.

View SamplesAnalysis of gene expression of prostate tumors arisen in TRAMP mice in which mast cells are pharmacologically stabilized or genetically ablated.The hypothesis tested in the present study was that mast cells inhibition or absence impacted prostate tumor development and histotype. Results demonstrate that prostate tumors arisen in TRAMP mice in which mast cells are pharmacologically stabilized or genetically ablated have a neuroendocrine signature.
