View SamplesWe report the genome-wide RNA expression levels in pluripotent mESC and as mESC differentiate towards a neuronal lineage in response to high levels of Retinoic Acid treatment in vitro. RNA-seq was performed to identify all RNAs expressed in both ESCs and neuronal cells. In total, In total, 14,443 expressed genes were detected, of which 1,834 were up-regulated and 1,477 down-regulated (fold change (FC) > -/+2.0 and p-value < 0.035) during RA-induced neuronal differentiation. The top down-regulated genes included members of the pluripotency core transcriptional network, including Klf4, Sox2, Oct4, Nanog, Suz12, Esrrb, Stat3 and Tcfcp2l1. The top up-regulated genes are important for neuronal differentiation (e.g. Pax3, Irx3, Rest and Foxd3) and reside in the RA-pathway (e.g. various homeobox genes), the retinoic acid receptors and the RA-degradation enzyme Cyp26a1. Overall design: Examination, identification and comparision of mRNA expression profliles in two cellular states.

View SamplesCalicum plays critical roles in developing T cells, promoting survival, proliferation, and differentiation at multiple stages of maturation. Calcium release from intracellular stores due to T cell receptor and pre-T cell receptor signaling is thought to require the inositol triphosphate receptors (Itpr), however the requirement for these receptors has not been investigated. We used microarrays to examine gene expression differences between control and Itpr deficient T cell progenitors.

View SamplesThe Pseudomonas aeruginosa MvfR-dependent QS regulatory pathway controls the expression of key virulence genes; and is activated via the extracellular signals 4-hydroxy-2-heptylquinoline (HHQ) and 3,4-dihydroxy-2-heptylquinoline (PQS), whose syntheses depend on anthranilic acid (AA), the primary precursor of 4-hydroxy-2-alkylquinolines (HAQs). We identified halogenated AA analogs that specifically inhibited HAQ biosynthesis and disrupted MvfR-dependent gene expression. These compounds restricted P. aeruginosa systemic dissemination and mortality in mice, without perturbing bacterial viability, and inhibited osmoprotection, a widespread bacterial function.

View SamplesWe used the flu mutant of Arabidopsis and a transgenic line that overexpresses the thylakoid-bound ascorbate peroxidase (tAPX) to address the interactions between different reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling pathways. The conditional flu mutant of Arabidopsis accumulates excess protochlorophyllide in the dark within chloroplast membranes that upon illumination acts as a photosensitizer and generates singlet oxygen (1O2). Immediately after the release of singlet oxygen rapid changes in nuclear gene expression occur. Distinct sets of genes were activated that were different from those induced by other reactive oxygen species, superoxide or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), suggesting that different types of active oxygen species activate distinct signaling pathways. It was not known whether the pathways operate separately or interact with each other. We have addressed this problem by modulating noninvasively the level of H2O2 in plastids by means of a transgenic line that overexpresses the thylakoid-bound ascorbate peroxidase (tAPX, line 14/2 PMID: 15165186). In the flu mutant overexpressing tAPX, the expression of most of the nuclear genes that were rapidly activated after the release of 1O2 was significantly higher in flu plants overexpressing tAPX, whereas in wild-type plants, overexpression of tAPX had only a very minor impact on nuclear gene expression. The results suggest that H2O2 antagonizes the 1O2-mediated signaling of stress responses as seen in the flu mutant. This cross-talk between H2O2- and 1O2-dependent signaling pathways might contribute to the overall stability and robustness of wild-type plants exposed to adverse environmental stress conditions.

View SamplesHemagglutinin of the influenza virus is the main external glycoprotein. This very immunogenic protein is the target of the most anti-influenza vaccines. DNA vaccines are new alternative to conventional inactivated ones. Four DNA vaccines were tested. Each tested variant was based on the pCI vector with nucleotide sequence encoding hemagglutinin from A/swan/Poland/305-135V08/2006 (H5N1, clade 2.2). In K3/pCI, GK/pCI and HAneo/pCI the different optimization algorithms of hemagglutinin encoding sequence without amino acids change were tested. In 3NF/pCI the NFkappaB binding sites flanking the expression cassette were included in order to improve the nuclear transfer. Comparative transcriptome analysis of mice vaccinated the following vaccine HAneo/pCI,K3/pCI, GK/pCI or 3NF/pCI versus empty vector demonstrated minor changes in genes expression pattern. Most genes were expressed on the similar level in the vaccinated individuals and in the control mice. Small number of genes in particular variants showed the expression different than in the control mice. In general, the identified genes with the changed expression included some genes involved in metabolic processes and none of them seem to induce any undesirable pathways nor disease.
