Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive form of brain tumors. Despite radical surgery and radiotherapy supported by chemotherapy, the disease still remains incurable with extremely low median survival rate of 12-15 months from the time of initial diagnosis. The main cause of treatment failure is considered to be the presence of cells that are resistant to such treatment. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) as regulators of gene expression are involved in the tumor pathogenesis, including GBM. MiR-338 is a brain specific miRNA which has been described to target pathways involved in proliferation and differentiation. In our study, miR-338-3p and -5p were differentially expressed in GBM tissue in comparison to non-tumor brain tissue. Overexpression of miR-338-3p with miRNA mimic did not show any changes in proliferation rates in GBM cell lines (A172, T98G, U87MG). On the other hand, pre-miR-338-5p notably decreased proliferation and caused cell cycle arrest. Since radiation is currently the main treatment modality in GBM, we combined overexpression of pre-miR-338-5p with radiation, which led to significantly decreased of cell proliferation, and increased cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in comparison to only irradiated cells. To better elucidate the mechanism of action, we performed gene expression profiling analysis that revealed targets of miR-338-5p being Ndfip1, Rheb, ppp2R5a. These genes have been described to be involved in DNA damage response, proliferation and cell cycle regulation. To our knowledge, this is the first study to describe role of miR-338-5p in GBM and its potential to improve sensitivity of GBM to radiation.

Description
We use the zebrafish embryo model to study the transcriptome responses to flagellin and Pam3CSK4. Therefore, we injected these PAMPs into the caudal vein at the 27 hours post fertilization and took samples at 1 hour post injection. Overall design: This deep sequence study was designed to determine the gene expression profile by Pam3CSK4 and flagellin injection. RNA was isolated from embryos at 1 hour post injection. Wildtypes and tlr2- and tlr5a- morphants zebrafish embryos were micro-injected into the caudal vein with 1ng of Pam3CSK4, 0,1 ng flagellin , or water as a control at 27 hours post fertilization. After injections embryos were transferred into fresh egg water and incubated at 28°C. At 1 hour post injection triplicates of 10 to 15 embryos per condition were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and total RNA was isolated using TRIZOL reagent.

Description
Background: MicroRNA-196b-5p (miR-196b-5p) has been previously involved in carcinogenesis, though its role in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and biology remains controversially. In our current study, we systematically explored the clinical significance and biological relevance of miR-196b-5p, as well as the underlying molecular mechanisms regulated by miR-196b-5p in colorectal cancer.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
To investigate whether and how expression of the oncogenic transcription factor EVI1 influences gene regulation by phorbol esters and vice versa, the human myeloid cell line U937 was transduced with an EVI1 expression vector or empty vector as a control. Cells were treated with 12-Otetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) or its solvent ethanol as a control. RNA was extracted and subjected to gene expression microarray analysis.

Description
The product of the ecotropic virus integration site 1 (EVI1) gene, whose overexpression is associated with a poor prognosis in myeloid leukemias and some epithelial tumors, regulates gene transcription both through direct DNA binding and through modulation of the activity of other sequence specific transcription factors. Previous results from our laboratory have shown that EVI1 influenced transcription regulation in response to the myeloid differentiation inducing agent, all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), in a dual manner: it enhanced ATRA induced transcription of the RARb gene, but repressed the ATRA induction of the EVI1 gene itself. In the present study, we asked whether EVI1 would modulate the ATRA regulation of a larger number of genes, as well as biological responses to this agent, in human myeloid cells. U937 and HL-60 cells ectopically expressing EVI1 through retroviral transduction were subjected to microarray based gene expression analysis, and to assays measuring cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. These experiments showed that EVI1 modulated the ATRA response of several dozens of genes, and in fact reinforced it in the vast majority of cases. A particularly strong synergy between EVI1 and ATRA was observed for GDF15, which codes for a member of the TGF-b superfamily of cytokines. In line with the gene expression results, EVI1 enhanced cell cycle arrest, differentiation, and apoptosis in response to ATRA, and knockdown of GDF15 counteracted some of these effects.
