Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.1 ST Array (mogene21st)
Description
Up to now the role of tumor-specific pTregs and anergic cells during tumor development is not fully understood. Here we used a genetically-induced tumor expressing a MHC-II restricted DBY model antigen to characterize the tumor-induced pTregs and anergic cells that arise early during tumor development.

Description
Up to know CD4 T cell antitumor responses have been mostly studied in transplanted tumor models. However, although they are valuable tools, they are not suitable to study the long term interactions between tumors and the immune system

Description
CD4+ T cells as mediators of antitumor responses are beginning to be appreciated. Our team demonstrated that chronically activated CD4+ T cells (chCD4+ T cells) were expanded in the blood of cancer patients and their expansion is correlated with tumor regression.

Description
Background: Information on the carcinogenic potential of chemicals is only availably for High Production Volume products. There is however, a pressing need for alternative methods allowing for the chronic toxicity of substances, including carcinogenicity, to be detected earlier and more reliably. Here we applied advanced genomics to a cellular transformation assay to identify gene signatures useful for the prediction of risk for carcinogenicity. Methods: Genome wide gene expression analysis and qRT-PCR were applied to untransformed and transformed Balb/c 3T3 cells that exposed to 2, 4-diaminotoluene (DAT), benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), 2-Acetylaminoflourene (AAF) and 3-methycholanthrene (MCA) for 24h and 120h, at different concentrations, respectively. Furthermore, various bioinformatics tools were used to identify gene signatures predicting for the carcinogenic risk. Results: Bioinformatics analysis revealed distinct datasets for the individual chemicals tested while the number of significantly regulated genes increased with ascending treatment concentration of the cell cultures. Filtering of the data revealed a common gene signature that comprised of 13 genes whose regulation in cancer tissue has already been established. Strikingly, this gene signature was already identified prior to cell transformation therefore confirming the predictive power of this gene signature in identifying carcinogenic risks of chemicals. Comparison of fold changes determined by microarray analysis and qRT-PCR were in good agreement. Conclusion: Our data describes selective and commonly regulated carcinogenic pathways observed in an easy to use in vitro carcinogenicity assay. Here we defined a set of genes which can serve as a simply assay to predict the risk for carcinogenicity by use of an alternative in vitro testing strategy.

Description
Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-1) is the most extensively studied growth factor in dentin-pulp complex, with pleiotropic effects on pulp response and healing. Our main objective was to analyze the expression profile of pulp tissue and odontoblasts, and the effects of TGF-1 on these profiles in cultured human pulp and odontoblasts with a specific interest in the anti- and pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Description
To assess the potential of PP6 as a therapeutic target in liver disorders, we attenuated expression of the PP6 catalytic subunit in HepG2 cells using lentiviral-transduced shRNA. Two PP6 knock-down (PP6KD) cell lines 18.5 and 19.5, (90% reduction of PP6-C protein content) were studied in depth.

Description
Models for tumorigenesis can be made by transforming normal cells with defined genetic elements. This allows us to determine that adrenocortical tumor development and progression follows a multistep model. Morever, we demonstrated that the order of genetic events has a great consequence on the phenotype of the resultant tumor. We performed transcriptomic analysis using cDNA microarrays to identify the molecular signature that might explain the distinctive in vivo phenotypes observed in response to both orders of the mutational events.

Description
Knowledge of differential gene expression between pulp and odontoblasts might give insight to the regulation of these spatially related but functionally diverse cells. Our aim was large-scale analysis of expression profiles of native human pulp tissue and odontoblasts, and search for genes expressed only in odontoblasts.
