View SamplesPaired platinum-sensitive & platinum-resistant cell lines PEO1 and PEO4 (respectively) were derived from the same patient. Cell line cultures were profiled with the HT-HGU133a GeneChip to investigate chemotherapy resistance related expression of genes marked with different histone modifications in a primary ovarian tumour (clinical data for the primary ovarian tumour is available as Series supplementary file).

View SamplesWe describe here a male infant with a 100 kb de novo Xq28 deletion encompassing parts of the TMEM187 and MECP2 protein-coding genes and the IRAK1 protein-coding gene, as well as the MIR3202-1, MIR3202-2, and MIR718 RNA-coding genes. We analyzed the impact of human IRAK-1 deficiency on a genome-wide gene expression in human fibroblasts in response to TLR2/6, TLR4 agonists as well as to IL-1 and TNF-, using primary fibroblasts from healthy controls and IRAK-4-, MyD88- and MECP2-deficient patients for comparison.
Inherited human IRAK-1 deficiency selectively impairs TLR signaling in fibroblasts.

View SamplesDepletion of Rad21 in murine bone marrow leads to enhanced self-renewal in vitro
The cohesin subunit Rad21 is a negative regulator of hematopoietic self-renewal through epigenetic repression of Hoxa7 and Hoxa9.

View SamplesA few reports have implicated specific lncRNAs in cardiac development or failure, but precise details of lncRNAs expressed in hearts and how their expression may be altered during embryonic heart development or by adult heart disease is unknown. By comparing lncRNA profiles of normal embryonic (~E14), normal adult, and hypertrophied adult hearts we defined a distinct fetal lncRNA abundance signature that includes 157 lncRNAs differentially expressed compared to adults (fold-change = 50%, FDR=0.02), and which was only poorly recapitulated in hypertrophied hearts (17 differentially expressed lncRNAs; 13 of these observed in embryonic hearts). Analysis of protein-coding mRNAs from the same samples identified 22 concordantly and 11 reciprocally regulated mRNAs within 10 kb of dynamically expressed lncRNAs, reciprocal relationships of lncRNA and mRNA levels was validated for the Mccc1 and Relb genes using in vitro lncRNA knockdown in C2C12 cells. Network analysis suggested a central role for lncRNAs in modulating NFkappaB- and CREB1-regulated genes during embryonic heart growth and identified multiple mRNAs within these pathways that are also regulated, but independently of lncRNAs. Overall design: Cardiac polyadenylated RNA (mRNA and lncRNA) profiles were generated from C57BL/6J mouse hearts were generated on Illumina HiSeq 2000 instruments. 7 independent E13.5 hearts, 12 adult hearts (6 at 6 weeks of age, 6 at 16 weeks of age), 4 sham-operated hearts at 12 weeks of age, and 4 hearts after 4 weeks of pressure overload (TAC) at 12 weeks of age.

View SamplesCells from three adult, wild-type, FVB hearts were separated into cardiomyocyte and nonmyocyte fractions using Langendorff perfusion, collagenase digestion and gravity filtration. Total RNA was prepared immediately from myocytes, while nonmyocytes were passaged twice to yield a culture from which total RNA was prepared. Overall design: 6 cardiac polyadenylated RNA (mRNA and lncRNA) and small RNA (microRNA) profiles of isolated cardiomyocytes (CM) and nonmyocytes (fibro) from 12-wk FVB/NJ mouse hearts were generated on Illumina HiSeq 2000 instruments.

View SamplesPurpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) provides for quantitation of RNA abundances and comparison of RNA abundances within tissues and cells in a manner not possible with previous microarray technologies. 5 female mice were subjected to a sham operation, and 5 female mice were subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC). After 1 week, hearts were harvested and polyadenylated RNAs were profiled. Analyzed data have been published in Hu et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2012;109(48):19864-9, PMID: 23150554 Overall design: 10 cardiac polyA+-RNA profiles of 9 week-old FVB/NJ wild type (WT) mice (5 female sham, 5 female TAC) were generated on Illumina HiSeq 2000 instruments.

View SamplesRNA from circulating blood reticulocytes was utilized to provide a robust description of genes transcribed at the final stages of erythroblast maturation. After depletion of leukocytes and platelets, Affymetrix HG-U133Plus 2.0 arrays were hybridized with probe from total RNA isolated from blood sampled from 6 umbilical cords and 6 healthy adult humans.
