Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
TLRs are considered important for innate immune responses that combat bacterial infections. Here, the role of TLRs in severe septic peritonitis using the colon ascendens stent peritonitis (CASP) model was examined. We demonstrate that mice deficient for MyD88 and TRIF had markedly reduced bacterial numbers both in peritoneal cavity and peripheral blood, indicating that bacterial clearance in this model is inhibited by TLR signals. Moreover, survival of Myd88-/-;TrifLps2/Lps2 mice was significantly improved. The lack of TLR signals prevented the excessive induction of inflammatory cytokines and of IL 10. Notably, the expression of IFN-gamma, which has an essential protective role in septic peritonitis, and of IFN-regulated genes including several p47 and p65 GTPases as well as IP 10 was independent of TLR signaling. These results provide evidence that, in severe septic peritonitis, TLR deficiency balances the innate immune response in a favorable manner by attenuating deleterious responses such as excessive cytokine release, while leaving intact protective IFN-gamma production.
Publication Title

Description
By investigating the germinal center (GC) formation in STAT6ko/WT bone marrow-mixed chimera we found that GC formation in type 2 immune responses is dependent on B cell intrinsic expression of IL-4/IL-13-induced genes. We therefore used microarrays to find Stat6 dependent genes that are important for germinal center formation and/or organization after infection with the nematode Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (N. brasiliensis).

Description
NIH-3T3 cells were pretreated for 15 min with either DMSO (mock) or cycloheximide followed by addition of either mock, 100 U/ml IFNalpha or 100 U/ml IFNgamma for 1h. During the last 30 min, 500 M 4-thiouridine was added to cell culture medium. Total cellular RNA was isolated using Trizol reagent and nascent RNA was purified as described (Dlken et al. RNA 2008) . Three replicates of nascent RNA were analyzed by Affymetrix Mouse Gene ST 1.0 arrays

Description
This study aimed to explore the role of the Zyxin-related protein TRIP6 (thyroid receptor interacting protein 6) in Ewing's sarcoma (ES). By interrogation of published miccroarray data, we observed that of all seven Zyxin-proteins only TRIP6 is highly overexpressed in ES compared to normal tissues. RNA interference experiments and subsequent microarray and gene-set enrichment analyses indicated that TRIP6 expression is associated wth a pro-proliferative and pro-invasive transcriptional signature. Consistently, functional assays demonstrated that TRIP6 promotes migration, invasion, long-term proliferation and clonogencity of ES cells.

Description
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common childhood cancer. To identify novel candidates for targeted treatment of childhood ALL, we performed a comprehensive transcriptome analysis yielding a set of genes specifically overexpressed in ALL. Among them we identified MondoA - a transcription factor regulating glycolysis in response to glucose availability. Here, we confirm that MondoA is highly overexpressed ALL, whereas the MondoA paralog, MondoB, is not expressed. Expression studies revealed that MondoA is not regulated by glucose availability in leukemia cells, but by the presence of lactate. An in silico MondoA promoter analysis identified two methylation-prone CpG-islands and four conserved binding sites for runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1). In fact, MondoA and RUNX1 are significantly coexpressed in leukemia and experimental blockage of DNA methylation leads to a further induction of MondoA. In addition, using microarray profiling, gene-set enrichment analysis and RNA interference we provide for the first time evidence that MondoA expression not only increases glucose catabolism, but also maintains a more immature ALL phenotype, which is associated with enhanced survival and clonogenicity of leukemia cells. These data hint to an important contribution of MondoA to leukemia aggressiveness validating MondoA as an attractive candidate for targeted treatment of ALL.
