Huntingtons disease (HD) is an incurable hereditary neurodegenerative disorder, which manifests itself as a loss of GABAergic medium spiny (GABA MS) neurons in the striatum and caused by an expansion of the CAG repeat in exon 1 of the huntingtin gene. There is no cure for HD, existing pharmaceutical can only relieve its symptoms. Here, induced pluripotent stem cells were established from patients with low CAG repeat expansion in the huntingtin gene, and were then efficiently differentiated into GABA MS-like neurons under defined culture conditions. Analysis of differentially expressed genes between Huntingtons disease and wild type iPSCs derived GABA MS-like neurons has been performed.

View SamplesAGO-PAR-CLIP was employed to identify microRNA binding sites in BCBL-1, a Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infected B-cell line and DG75, a KSHV negative B-cell line as a control. By using our novel computational method (PARma) and differential analysis of PAR-CLIP data, highly accurate target sites of KSHV microRNAs can be defined. Overall design: Examination of microRNA target sites in two different cell lines using replicate PAR-CLIP experiments

View SamplesData from tc-, nt- and p-RNA as well as 1 and 2h of actinomycin-D treatment (5g/ml) of NIH-3T3 cells used to determine half-lives. RNA was labeled for 15, 30 or 60 minutes with 4-thiouridine. After preparation of tc-RNA, thiol-labeled RNA was biotinylated using biot-HPDP and subsequently tc-RNA was separated into nt- and p-RNA using streptavidin coated magnetic beads. All three fractions were used for microarray analysis. For actinomycin-D experiments only tc-RNA was used prepared from cell before and 1 an 2h after addition of act-D.

View SamplesRNA was labeled in BL41 cells by culturing cells for 60 min in media containing 100M 4sU. Tc-RNA was separated into nt- and p-RNA. All three RNA subsets were subjected to microarray analysis. Only probe sets providing present calls in all RNA samples/subsets were included into the analysis

View SamplesEmbryonic stem cell derived microglia (ESdM) were treated with different inflammatory stimulants to analyze their ability to adopt different activation states. These were characterized using ELISA, flow cytometry, quantitative real time PCR, and RNA-sequencing. Overall design: Analysis of cytokine secretion, cell surface marker, gene expression, and RNA-seq expression data of differentially activated ESdM

View SamplesPosttranslational modifications on histone tails control gene expresssion levels in an either positive or negative way. Therefore enzymes which modifiy the modifications on the histon tails, like histone demethylases, are able to strictly regulate the transcriptom.
The H3K4me3 histone demethylase Fbxl10 is a regulator of chemokine expression, cellular morphology, and the metabolome of fibroblasts.

View SamplesWe investigated the differential regulation patterns of type I anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (mAb) rituximab and type II obinutuzumab on a transcriptional level. Using a panel of MCL cell lines, we determined the effects of obinutuzumab and rituximab as monotherapies as well as in combination on cell viability and proliferation.
