In industrial fermentations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, transient changes in oxygen concentration commonly occur and it is important to understand the behaviour of cells during these changes. Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-1A was grown in glucose-limited chemostat culture with 1.0% and 20.9% O2 in the inlet gas (D= 0.10 /h, pH5, 30C). After steady state was achieved, oxygen was replaced with nitrogen and cultures were followed until new steady state was achieved. The overall responses to anaerobic conditions of cells initially in different conditions were very similar. Independent of initial culture conditions, transient downregulation of genes related to growth and cell proliferation, mitochondrial translation and protein import, and sulphate assimilation was seen. In addition, transient or permanent upregulation of genes related to protein degradation, and phosphate and amino acid uptake was observed in all cultures. However, only in the initially oxygen-limited cultures was a transient upregulation of genes related to fatty acid oxidation, peroxisomal biogenesis, oxidative phosphorylation, TCA cycle, response to oxidative stress, and pentose phosphate pathway observed. Furthermore, from the initially oxygen-limited conditions, a rapid response around the metabolites of upper glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway was seen, while from the initially fully aerobic conditions, a slower response around the pathways for utilisation of respiratory carbon sources was observed.

View SamplesMononuclear phagocytes (MPs), including monocytes and macrophages, play complex roles in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We aimed to perform global transcriptome analysis on monocytes from AMD patients to obtain additional insight to the role of MPs in AMD. Peripheral blood was taken from treatment-nave neovascular AMD (nvAMD) patients (n=14), and age-matched controls (n=15). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated and monocytes were isolated via negative selection. Gene expression was evaluated with Affymetrix Gene1.0 ST microarrays. Statistical/bioinformatics analysis was performed using open sourceware programs.

View SamplesPhosphorus is an essential macronutrient element, but some time causes problems if present in excess. Unlike the enormous molecular and morphophysiological information available in plants regarding phosphate (Pi) deficiency, little is known about the effect of excess Pi on plants, which is indeed essential for its remediation. Here, we have carried out a comparative study of plant molecular responses under excess Pi (20 mM) or without Pi (0 mM) at transcriptome level. The 1.25 mM treatment concentration of Pi used as a control to obtain differentially regulated genes under above mentioned Pi regimes. A novel whole-transcript expression array, i.e. Arabidopsis Gene 1.0 ST Array, was used to perform these experiments. The most distinctly regulated groups of genes represent modulation in ethylene mediated signaling, Fe deficiency response, and root development. We have also identified some defensin like genes, possessing a gibberellic acid regulated domain (GASA like) under excess Pi treatment. Overall, this study will not only help in dissecting the mechanism of plant responses under excess Pi but also provide the clues about the unknown genes involved in phosphorus homeostasis.

View SamplesWe report gene expression data for the human cell lines HL-60 and PLB-985, which serve as models for human neutrophils. We measured gene expression using RNA-Seq for these cell lines both prior and after differentiation into a neutrophil-like state using two differentiation protocols (treatment with DMSO or treatment with DMSO and replacement of serum with Nutridoma). Overall design: HL-60 and PLB-985 cells grown in culture were processed for RNA-Seq both before and after differentiation for six days in media supplemented with 1.3% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The cell lines were also analyzed after differentiation for six days in media with 1.3% DMSO, reduced serum (0.5% FBS), and Nutridoma-CS (2%). PLB-985 cells were also analyzed at intermediate time points of 2 days and 4 days with the Nutridoma protocol.

View SamplesBone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) were adipogenically differentiated followed by dedifferentiation. We are interested to know the new fat markers, adipogenic signaling pathways and dedifferentiation signaling pathways.Furthermore we are also intrested to know that how differentiated cells convert into dedifferentiated progenitor cells. To address these questions, MSC were adipogenically differentiated, followed by dedifferentiation. Finally these dedifferentiated cells were used for adipogenesis, osteogenesis and chondrogenesis. Histology, FACS, qPCR and GeneChip analyses of undifferentiated, adipogenically differentiated and dedifferentiated cells were performed. Regarding the conversion of adipogenically differentiated cells into dedifferentiated cells, gene profiling and bioinformatics demonstrated that upregulation (DHCR24, G0S2, MAP2K6, SESN3) and downregulation (DST, KAT2, MLL5, RB1, SMAD3, ZAK) of distinct genes play a curcial role in cell cycle to drive the adipogenically differentiated cells towards an arrested state to narrow down the lineage potency. However, the upregulation (CCND1, CHEK, HGF, HMGA2, SMAD3) and downregulation (CCPG1, RASSF4, RGS2) of these cell cycle genes motivates dedifferentiation of adipogenically differentiated cells to reverse the arrested state. We also found new fat markers along with signaling pathways for adipogenically differentiated and dedifferentiated cells, and also observed the influencing role of proliferation associated genes in cell cycle arrest and progression.
