View SamplesSTRRIDE is an exercise intervention study of different doses and intensities in overweight women and men with the metabolic syndrome. We profiled biopsies from 3 female and 3 male STRRIDE subjects in the high exercise group (2,200 kCal/wk). Muscle biopsies were profiled at entry (0h), and after 9 months of aerobic training (24 hrs post-last bout, 96 hrs post last bout, and 336h (14 days) de-training). Included also are pilot expression data from 3 male subjects.

View SamplesApproximately 2.5 mg dry Col-0 seedlings were surface sterilized and stratified for 2 days at 4degreesC in liquid media containing 1.5% sucrose (w/v) before being transferred to light with constant shaking at 100 rpm on an orbital shaker. After 7 days, the seedling clusters were subjected to the treatments for 1 hr followed by total RNA isolation using the RNAqueous kit (Ambion). Each treatment was performed in triplicate or quadruplicate. All labeling (Enzo) and hybridization (Affymetrix) procedures were performed as directed by the manufacturers. Raw probe intensities output by the Affymetrix MAS software were processed using the RMA algorithm to obtain an expression measure for each gene on each array.

View SamplesFibroadenomas are the most common benign breast tumors in women under 30. Unlike their malignant counterparts, relatively molecular profiling has been done on fibroadenomas. Here we performed gene expression profiling on ten fibroadenomas in order to better characterize these tumors. Through targeted amplicon sequencing, we have found that six of these tumors have MED12 mutations. We show that the MED12 mutations, among others, are associated with activated estrogen signaling, as well as increased invasiveness through upregulation of ECM remodelling genes.

View SamplesChanges in gene regulation have long been known to play important roles in both innate and adaptive immune responses. However, post-transcriptional mechanisms involved in mRNA processing have been poorly studied despite emerging examples of their role as regulators of immune defenses. We sought to investigate the role of mRNA processing in the cellular responses of human macrophages to live bacterial infections. Overall design: Transcriptomic profiles of 198 infected (Listeria and Salmonella) and non-infected samples at multiple time points.

View SamplesAbstract from Vermillion et al: During vertebrate development, progenitor cells give rise to tissues and organs through a complex choreography that commences at gastrulation. A hallmark event of gastrulation is the formation of the primitive streak, a linear assembly of cells along the anterior-posterior (AP) axis of the developing organism. To examine the primitive streak at a single-cell resolution, we measured the transcriptomes of individual chick cells from the streak or the surrounding tissue (the rest of the area pellucida) in Hamburger-Hamilton stage 4 embryos. The single-cell transcriptomes were then ordered by the statistical method Wave-Crest to deduce both the relative position along the AP axis and the prospective lineage of single cells. The ordered transcriptomes reveal intricate patterns of gene expression along the primitive streak. Overall design: Examination of single-cells of stage 4 chicken embryos.
Spatial patterns of gene expression are unveiled in the chick primitive streak by ordering single-cell transcriptomes.

View SamplesThe aim of this experiment was to investigate differential gene expression in splenocytes stimulated with BCG from nave and BCG vaccinated mice. The differences between nave and BCG vaccinated mice might indicate the mechanisms by which BCG vaccination confers an enhanced ability of splenocytes from BCG vaccinated mice to inhibit growth of BCG in splenocyte cultures as compared with splenocytes from naive animals.
