Description
Staphylococcus aureus causes a spectrum of human infection. Diagnostic delays and uncertainty lead to treatment delays and inappropriate antibiotic use. A growing literature suggests the hosts inflammatory response to the pathogen represents a potential tool to improve upon current diagnostics. The hypothesis of this study is that the host responds differently to S. aureus than to E. coli infection in a quantifiable way, providing a new diagnostic avenue. This study uses Bayesian sparse factor modeling and penalized binary regression to define peripheral blood gene-expression classifiers of murine and human S. aureus infection. The murine-derived classifier distinguished S. aureus infection from healthy controls and Escherichia coli-infected mice across a range of conditions (mouse and bacterial strain, time post infection) and was validated in outbred mice (AUC>0.97). A S. aureus classifier derived from a cohort of 95 human subjects distinguished S. aureus blood stream infection (BSI) from healthy subjects (AUC 0.99) and E. coli BSI (AUC 0.82). Murine and human responses to S. aureus infection share common biological pathways, allowing the murine model to classify S. aureus BSI in humans (AUC 0.84). Both murine and human S. aureus classifiers were validated in an independent human cohort (AUC 0.95 and 0.94, respectively). The approach described here lends insight into the conserved and disparate pathways utilized by mice and humans in response to these infections. Furthermore, this study advances our understanding of S. aureus infection; the host response to it; and identifies new diagnostic and therapeutic avenues.

Description
Atria and ventricles exhibit distinct molecular profiles that produce structural and functional differences between the two cardiac compartments. However, factors that determine these differences remain largely undefined. Cardiomyocyte-specific COUP- TFII ablation produces ventricularized atria that exhibit ventricle-like action potentials, increased cardiomyocyte size, and development of extensive T-tubules.

Description
COUP-TFII, a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily plays a critical role in angiogenesis and organogenesis during embryonic development. Our results indicate that COUP-TFII expression is profoundly upregulated in prostate cancer patients and might serves as biomarker for recurrence prediction. Thus we conduct transcriptome comparison of control and COUP-TFII depleted PC3 cells to gain genomic insights on the biological processes that COUP-TFII is involved in prostate cancer cells. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) shows that the most prominent altered pathways in the COUP-TFII depleted cells are related to cell growth; cell cycle progression and DNA damage response. Indeed many growth related genes including E2F1, p21, CDC25A, Cyclin A and Cyclin B are changed in COUP-TFII knockdown cells, suggesting that COUP-TFII might be an important regulator for prostate cancer cell growth. Further functional assays from cells and mice genetic studies confirm the hypothesis that COUP-TFII serve as the major regulator to control prostrate cancer growth. Together, results provide insight into the role of COUP-TFII in prostate tumorigenesis.

Description
A pressing clinical challenge is identifying the etiologic basis of acute respiratory illness. Without reliable diagnostics, the uncertainty associated with this clinical entity leads to a significant, inappropriate use of antibacterials. Use of host peripheral blood gene expression data to classify individuals with bacterial infection, viral infection, or non-infection represents a complementary diagnostic approach.

Description
Early EPCs (eEPCs) appear at less than 1 week in culture dishes, whereas late EPCs (LEPCs) appear late at 2-4 weeks. Distinct angiogenic properties between these two EPC subpopulations have been disclosed by the angiogenesis assay: late EPCs, but not eEPCs, form vascular networks de novo and are able to incorporate into vascular networks. On the contrary, eEPCs, but not late ones, indirectly augment tubulogenesis even when physically separated by a Transwell membrane, implying the involvement of a cytokine-based paracrine mechanism.

Description
High glucose impairs the angiogenic activities of late endothelial precursor cells (EPC). We found that far infrared (FIR) treatment restored partially the activity of late EPC. However, the mechanisms are unclear. We performed gene expression microarray analysis to assess the expression profiles of high glucose-treated late EPC with or without FIR treatment.

Description
Tazarotene-induced gene 1 (TIG1), also named as retinoic acid receptor responder 1 (RARRES1), is a retinoid inducible type II tumor suppressor gene; the TIG1B isoform inhibits growth and invasion of cancer cells. Expression of TIG1B is frequently downregulated in various cancer tissues; however, the expression and activities of the TIG1A isoform has yet to be analyzed. This study investigated the effects of TIG1A and TIG1B isoforms on gene expression profiles of colon cancer cells. TIG1A, TIG1B and control stable clones derived from HCT116 colon cells were established using the GeneSwitch system. TIG1 isoform expression was induced upon 5 micro Molar of mifepristone (MFP) treatment for 24 hr. Biological triplicate samples were prepared and gene expression profiles were determined by microarray using human genome HGU133 plus 2 array (Affymatrix). Upon induction of TIG1A and TIG1B expression for 24 hr, a total of 129 and 55 genes were significantly altered, respectively. Of the genes analyzed, 23 and 6 genes were up- and downregulated, respectively in both TIG1A and TIG1B expressing cells.
