Description
MDA-MB-231 and T47D human breast cancer cells were chronically treated with the novel STAT3/5 inhibitor SH-4-54 for 60 and 30 days, respectively. Surviving treatment-resistant individual clones were isolated and characterized for their phosphorylated STAT3 and phosphorylated STAT5 status. 3 biological replicates of mRNA from a representative resistant clone derived from both MDA-MB-231 and T47D cells, in parallel with mRNA from their respective wild-type counterparts, was subjected to NextGeneration Sequencing to analyze changes in gene expression between untreated and resistant cells.

Description
Targeted therapies against cancer stem cells which are enriched in side populations (SP) involves interruption of Wnt-signalling. Furthermore, EpCAM is a SP marker and modulator of Wnt-signalling. Therefore, the effects of an anti-EpCAM treatment on SP-cells and WNT/-catenin signalling was studied.

Description
Dysregulated inflammation is implicated in the pathobiology of aging, yet platelet-leukocyte interactions and downstream inflammatory gene synthesis in older adults remains poorly understood. Highly-purified human platelets and monocytes were isolated from healthy younger (age<45, n=37) and older (age60, n=30) adults and incubated together under autologous and non-autologous conditions. Inflammatory gene synthesis by monocytes, basally and in the presence of platelets, was examined. Next-generation RNA-sequencing allowed for unbiased profiling of the platelet transcriptome in aging. Basal IL-8 and MCP-1 synthesis by monocytes alone did not differ between older and younger adults. However, in the presence of autologous platelets, monocytes from older adults synthesized greater IL-8 (415 vs. 92 ng/mL, p<0.0001) and MCP-1 (867150 vs. 21636 ng/mL, p<0.0001) than younger adults. Non-autologous experiments demonstrated that platelets from older adults were sufficient for upregulating inflammatory gene synthesis by monocytes. Using RNA-seq followed by validation via RT-PCR and immunoblot, we discovered that granzyme A (GrmA), a serine protease not previously identified in human platelets, is increased in aging (~9-fold vs. younger adults, p<0.05) and governs increased IL-8 and MCP-1 synthesis through TLR4 and caspase-1. Inhibiting GrmA reduced the excessive IL-8 and MCP-1 synthesis in older adults to levels similar to younger adults. In summary, human aging is associated with changes in the platelet transcriptome and proteome. GrmA is present and bioactive in human platelets, is higher in older adults, and controls inflammatory gene synthesis by monocytes. Alterations in the platelet molecular signature and downstream signaling to monocytes may contribute to dysregulated inflammatory syndromes and adverse outcomes in older adults.

Description
The immune system relies on the plasticity of its components to produce appropriate responses to frequent environmental challenges. Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical initiators of innate immunity and orchestrate the later and more specific adaptive immunity. The generation of diversity in transcriptional programs is central for effective immune responses. Alternative splicing is widely considered a key generator of transcriptional and proteomic complexity, but its role has been rarely addressed systematically in immune cells. Here we used splicing-sensitive arrays to assess genome-wide gene- and exon-level expression profiles in human DCs in response to a bacterial challenge. We find widespread alternative splicing events and splicing factor transcriptional signatures induced by an E. coli challenge to human DCs. Alternative splicing acts in concert with transcriptional modulation, but these two mechanisms of gene regulation affect primarily distinct functional gene groups. Alternative splicing is likely to have an important role in DC immunobiology because it affects genes known to be involved in DC development, endocytosis, antigen presentation and cell cycle arrest

Description
In tumor microenvironment, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have been characterized as M1-like or M2-like phenotype. In this study, we investigated the characteristics and functional roles of different TAMs on cancer metastasis. We isolated TAMs from primary tumor and metastatic lung and performed microarrays to identify the gene expression in distinct TAMs populations.
