Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Of 54,675 expressed sequence tags, microarray analysis revealed that 391 genes were differently expressed (>1.5-fold difference) between LA-PV junction and LAA, including genes related to arrhythmia, cell death, fibrosis, hypertrophy, and inflammation. Microarray and q-PCR produced parallel results in analyzing the expression of particular genes. The expression of paired like homeodomain-2 (PITX2) and its target protein (short stature homeobox-2 [SHOX2]) was greater in LA-PV junction than in LAA, which may contribute to arrhythmogenesis. Five genes related to thrombogenesis were up-regulated in LAA, which may implicate for the preferential thrombus formation in LAA. Genes related to fibrosis were highly expressed in LAA, which was reflected by intense ultrastructural changes in this region

Description
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) causes atrial remodeling, and the left atrium (LA) is the favored substrate for maintaining AF. However, it remains unclear if AF remodels both atria differently and contributes to LA arrhythmogenesis and thrombogenesis.

Description
Background: Heart failure (HF) causes various inflammatory responses. It remains unclear whether the inflammation the cause or effect of HF. Therefore, we wished to characterize the transcript profiles in the left ventricle (LV) of preserved and failed hearts respectively.

Description
Background: In the remodeling process of the volume-overloaded heart, the extracellular matrix (ECM) may be dynamically modified to adapt to hemodynamic stress. We investigated the expression of ECM-related genes and modification of the elastin network in the remodeling process of the left ventricles (LVs) of rats with aortocaval fistulae. Methods and Findings: Gene array analysis identified 36 upregulated and 11 downregulated ECM-related genes during evolution from the compensated to the late decompensated phase. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis identified the formation of elastic fibers as an important biological function. Real-time PCR confirmed persistent upregulation of elastogenesis-associated genes, including elastin, lysyl oxidase, lysyl oxidase like-1, fibrillin 1, fibulin 2, versican and latent transforming growth factor beta binding protein 2 at various intervals. The expression levels and enzymatic activities of potent elastases, cathepsin S and cathepsin K increased during the early phase. Immunofluorescence confocal microscopy showed that the microstructure of the elastin network was preserved during the early phase, degraded during the compensated phase, partially repaired during the early decompensated phase, and reinforced during the late decompensated phase. Assessment of elastin concentrations in the LVs showed a consistent temporal pattern throughout the course.

Description
Background: The change of cellular energy metabolism in colorectal carcinogenesis is poorly understood. It is widely accepted tht most, if not all, colorectal cancers (CRCs) arise from adenomatous polyps (APs). Our aim was to characterize the mitochondrial and bioenergetic alternations in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence.

Description
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is initiated and regulated by a transcriptional reprogramming in response to microenvironmental cues. How cancer cells overcome the lack of such cues during the metastatic journey remains unclear. Here we report a novel positive-feedback loop of EMT that maintains the mesenchymal traits of cancer cells during metastasis. Using subgenome-wide screening, we identified KLHL23 as a tumor invasion suppressor, which binds to actin and suppresses actin-filament formation. Silencing or ectopic expression of KLHL23 induces EMT or MET (mesenchymal-epithelial transition), respectively, through its action on actin dynamics. Increased actin-dynamics by silencing KLHL23 or treatment with F-actin disruptors or inducers enhances the EMT transcriptional reprogramming via the induction of ROS, HIF-1a, HIF-2a and NOTCH signalling pathways in cancer cells under stress or ongoing EMT. Downregulation of KLHL23 is found in human liver and pancreatic cancers and associated with tumor metastasis and poor prognosis.

Description
Background: Negative-pressure wound therapy has become widely available in modern chronic wound cares. Accelerated keratinocyte (HaCaT cell) movements and decreased E-cadherin expressions induced by the applied negative pressure gradient of 125 mmHg (NP) have been reported in previous studies. However, the molecular mechanism for E-cadherin regulations under NP remains unexplored. We highlighted the signal transduction involved in NP-induced E-cadherin regulation for keratinocytes in the study.

Description
CTP synthase (CTPS) forms compartmentalized filaments in response to substrate availability and environmental nutrient status. However, the physiological role of filaments and mechanisms for filament assembly are not well understood. Here, we provide evidence that CTPS forms filaments in response to histidine influx during glutamine starvation. CTPS protein levels remained stable in the presence of histidine during nutrient deprivation, followed by rapid cell growth following nutrient replenishment. Tetramer conformation-based filament formation restricted CTPS enzyme activity duringnutrient deprivation.
