Description
We report the application of RNA-seq analysis for high-throughput profiling of murine lungs infected with Aspergillus fumigatus. We compared the lung transcription of wildtype murine lungs and lungs from mice deficient in metabolic cytokine adiponectin. Overall design: Examination of 2 different mice strain and comparison of lung transcripts in response to Aspergillus fumigatus infection.

Description
Dupuytren's disease (DD) is a classic example of pathological fibrosis which results in a debilitating disorder affecting a large sector of the human population. It is characterized by excessive local proliferation of fibroblasts and over-production of collagen and other components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the palmar fascia. The fibrosis progressively results in contracture of elements between the palmar fascia and skin causing flexion deformity or clawing of the fingers and a severe reduction in hand function. While much is known about the pathogenesis and surgical treatment of DD, little is known about the factors that cause its onset and progression, despite many years of research. Gene expression patterns in DD patients now offers the potential to identify genes that direct the pathogenesis of DD.
Publication Title
Genome-wide analysis using exon arrays demonstrates an important role for expression of extra-cellular matrix, fibrotic control and tissue remodelling genes in Dupuytren's disease.

Description
The causal relationships between insulin levels, insulin resistance, and longevity are not fully elucidated. Genetic down-regulation of insulin/insulin-like growth factor 1 (Igf1) signaling components can extend invertebrate and mammalian lifespan, but insulin resistance, a natural form of decreased insulin signaling, is associated with greater risk of age-related disease in mammals. We compared Ins2+/- mice to Ins2+/+ littermate controls, on a genetically stable Ins1-null background. Proteomic and transcriptomic analyses of livers from 25 week-old mice suggested potential for healthier aging and altered insulin sensitivity in Ins2+/- mice. Halving Ins2 lowered circulating insulin by 25-34% in aged female mice, without altering Igf1 or circulating Igf1. Remarkably, decreased insulin led to lower fasting glucose and improved insulin sensitivity in aged mice. Moreover, lowered insulin caused significant lifespan extension, observed across two diverse diets. Our study indicates that elevated insulin contributes to age-dependent insulin resistance, and that limiting basal insulin levels can extend lifespan. Overall design: RNAsequencing expression profiles of livers and triceps surae hindlimb muscle from 25 week-old Ins1-/-;Ins2+/- and Ins1-/-;Ins2+/+ littermate control mice on one of two different diets (Diet A and B)

Description
We did the RNA-seq analysis to examine the global impact of Nicotinamide (NAM) on hiPSC-derived RPE transcriptome in order to better understand the mechanism of action of NAM. NAM inhibited the expression of Age related Macular degeneration (AMD) associated protein transcripts in hiPSC-derived RPE. Overall design: Seven hiPSC-RPE lines (4 AMD donors and 3 Control donors) that had been cultured with 10mM NAM or vehicle for three weeks were used for RNA extraction and RNA-seq analysis. We treated 4 AMD hiPSC-RPE and 3 Control hiPSC-RPE lines with 10mM NAM or vehicle.

Description
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) provides vital support to photoreceptor cells and its dysfunction is associated with the onset and progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Surgical provision of RPE cells may ameliorate AMD and thus it would be valuable to develop sources of patient-matched RPE cells for this application of regenerative medicine. We describe here the generation of functional RPE-like cells from fibroblasts that represent an important step toward that goal. We identified candidate master transcriptional regulators of RPEs using a novel computational method and then used these regulators to guide exploration of the transcriptional regulatory circuitry of RPE cells and to reprogram human fibroblasts into RPE-like cells. The RPE-like cells share key features with RPEs derived from healthy individuals, including morphology, gene expression and function, and thus represent a step toward the goal of generating patient-matched RPE cells for treatment of macular degeneration.

Description
All patients with suspected ovarian cancer (Raised CA 125 and a complex pelvic mass in a perimenopausal woman) were radiologically staged using CT scan and a chest x-ray. Patients with evidence of intra-abdominal metastasis and/or malignant pleural effusion were approached for entry to the study. Tissue biopsy was obtained either under radiological control (core needle biopsy) or via laparoscopic surgery (punch biopsy). Patients with histologicaly confirmed epithelial ovarian cancer were randomized to receive either three cycles of carboplatin (AUC 7) or paclitaxel (175 mg/m2).
