Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Array (zebrafish)
Description
The zebrafish pineal gland (epiphysis) is an autonomous clock organ. In addition to being a site of melatonin production, it contains photoreceptor cells and functions as a circadian clock pace maker, making zebrafish a useful model system to study the developmental control of expression of genes associated with melatonin synthesis and photodetection, and the circadian clock. Here we have used DNA microarray technology to study the zebrafish pineal transcriptome. Analysis of gene expression at five different developmental stages (three embryonic and two adult) has revealed a highly dynamic transcriptional profile, revealing many genes that are highly expressed in the pineal gland. Statistical analysis of the data based on Gene Ontology (GO) annotation indicates that many transcription factors and cell cycle genes are highly expressed during embryonic stages, whereas genes dedicated to visual system signal transduction are preferentially expressed in the adult. Furthermore, several genes were identified that exhibit day/night differences in expression. Our data provide a rich source of candidate genes for distinct functions at different stages of pineal gland development.

Description
Transcriptome profiles for innate and adaptive immune stimuli important for host response against mycobacteria. Human monocyte-derived macrophages were stimulated with TLR2/1 ligand and interferon-g, stimuli present during innate and adaptive immune responses, respectively. Overall design: Human monocyte-dervided macrophages from five healthy donors were stimulated with TLR2/1L, IFN-g, or media control for 2, 6, and 24 hours. RNA-sequencing was performed on a total of 45 samples.

Description
Chronic low dose inorganic arsenic (iAs) exposure leads to changes in gene expression and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transformation. During this transformation, cells adopt a fibroblast-like phenotype accompanied by profound gene expression changes. While many mechanisms have been implicated in this transformation, studies that focus on the role of epigenetic alterations in this process are just emerging. DNA methylation controls gene expression in physiologic and pathologic states. Several studies show alterations in DNA methylation patterns in iAs-mediated pathogenesis, but these studies focused on single genes. We present a comprehensive genome-wide DNA methylation analysis using methyl-sequencing to measure changes between normal and iAs-transformed cells. Additionally, these differential methylation changes correlated positively with changes in gene expression and alternative splicing. Interestingly, most of these differentially methylated genes function in cell adhesion and communication pathways. To gain insight into how genomic DNA methylation patterns are regulated iAs-mediated carcinogenesis, we show that iAs probably targets CTCF binding at the promoter of DNA methyltransferases, regulating their expression. These findings reveal how transcription factor binding regulates DNA methyltransferase to reprogram the methylome in response to an environmental toxin.

Description
There are currently no biological tests that differentiate patients with bipolar disorder (BPD) from healthy controls. While there is evidence that peripheral gene expression differences between patients and controls can be utilized as biomarkers for psychiatric illness, it is unclear whether current use or residual effects of antipsychotic and mood stabilizer medication drives much of the differential transcription. We therefore tested whether expression changes in first-episode, never-medicated bipolar patients, can contribute to a biological classifier that is less influenced by medication and could potentially form a practicable biomarker assay for BPD.

Description
Design: Persistent latently infected CD4+ T cells represent a major obstacle to HIV eradication. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) are a promising activation therapy in a shock and kill strategy. However, off-target effects of HDACis on host gene expression are poorly understood in primary cells of the immune system. We hypothesized that HDACi-modulated genes would be best identified with a dose response analysis. Methods: Resting primary CD4+ T cells were treated with increasing concentrations (0.34, 1, 3, or 10 M) of the HDACi, suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), for 24 hours and then subjected to microarray gene expression analysis. Genes with dose-correlated expression were identified with a likelihood ratio test using Isogene GX and a subset of these genes with a consistent trend of up or downregulation at each dose of SAHA were identified as dose-responsive. Histone modifications were characterized in promoter regions of the top 6 SAHA dose-responsive genes by RT-qPCR analysis of immunopreciptated chromatin (ChIP). Results: A large number of genes were shown to be up (N=657) or down (N=725) regulated by SAHA in a dose-responsive manner (FDR p-value < 0.05 and fold change |2|). Several of these genes (CTNNAL1, DPEP2, H1F0, IRGM, PHF15, and SELL) are potential in vivo biomarkers of SAHA activity. SAHA dose-responsive gene categories included transcription factors, HIV restriction factors, histone methyltransferases, and host proteins that interact with HIV proteins or the HIV LTR. Pathway analysis suggested net downregulation of T cell activation with increasing SAHA dose. Histone acetylation was not correlated with host expression, but plausible alternative mechanisms for SAHA-modulated expression were identified. Conclusions: Numerous host genes in CD4+ T cells are modulated by SAHA in a dose-responsive manner, including genes that may negatively influence HIV activation from latency. Our study suggests that SAHA influences gene expression through a confluence of several mechanisms, including histone acetylation, histone methylation, and altered expression and activity of transcription factors.

Description
Huge efforts are made to engineer safe and efficient genome editing tools. An alternative might be the harnessing of ADAR-mediated RNA editing. We now present the engineering of chemically optimized antisense oligonucleotides that recruit endogenous human ADARs to edit endogenous transcripts in a simple and programmable way, an approach we refer to as RESTORE. Notably, RESTORE was markedly precise, and there was no evidence for perturbation of the natural editing homeostasis. We applied RESTORE to a panel of standard human cell lines, but also to several human primary cells including hepatocytes. In contrast to other RNA and DNA editing strategies, this approach requires only the administration of an oligonucleotide, circumvents the ectopic expression of proteins, and thus represents an attractive platform for drug development. In this respect we have shown the repair of the PiZZ mutation causing a1-antitrypsin deficiency and the editing of phosphotyrosine 701 in STAT1. Overall design: Identification of off-target editing events and Interferon-a influence in HeLa cell line transfected with an ASO for RNA editing by RNA-Seq, 2 samples (ASO +/- IFN) , 2 control sample (+/-IFN), 2 biologically independent experiments for each sample, 8 samples in total

Description
We report the global gene expression of mouse pancreatic cells in a pancreas-specific conditional knock-out mouse for Gata6, as compared with age-matched controls. Total RNA was extracted from the pancreas of 6-8 -week old mice of the two genotypes and analyzed. at this age, Gata6P-/- pancreata are histologically normal, but the acinar differentiation programme is already altered. we observe that loss of Gata6 causes the de-repression of ectopic non-pancreatic genes, as well as some genes involved in the mesenchymal programme. Overall design: mRNA extracted from the pancreas of 4 controls and 4 Gata6P-/- mice was sequenced.
