- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
This experiment was designed to study oncogene-induced senescence (OIS). To this end we generated a series of cell lines derived from normal human diploid fibroblasts IMR90 forced to express the catalytic subunit of telomerase (hTERT). This cells were then subjected to further manipulation by orderly introducing defined genetic elements by retroviral transduction. The first cell line generated was ITV, which was obtained from the original cell line (IMR90 with hTERT) after introducing an empty vector. Subsequently, we introduced Mek:ER, which is a switchable version of the Mek kinase, a relevant downstream effector of Ras signaling during Ras-induced senescence, to generate ITM cells. We further modified this cell line by introducing SV40 small-t antigen (ST), papillomavirus oncoproteins E6 and E7 (E6/E7) or the combination of both (E6/E7 and ST). In this manner, we obtained ITMST, ITME6E7 and ITME6E7ST respectively.

- Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
Aim of the experiment is the identification of genes differentially regulated in phyA seedlings relative to wild type after prolonged exposure to low R/FR. To this end, gene expression changes were analysed in Arabidopsis wild-type and phyA knock-out mutant seedlings exposed to low R/FR light. The experiment was designed to enable comparison between the different genotypes exposed or not exposed to low R/FR light.

Description
Integration of high-risk human papillomavirus (HRHPV) into the host genome is a key event in cervical neoplastic progression. Integration is associated with deregulated expression of the viral oncogenes E6 and E7 and acquisition of a selective growth advantage for cells containing integrants. Overexpression of the viral transcriptional regulator E2 from heterologous promoters has an inhibitory effect on transcription from integrated HRHPV. We therefore hypothesised that loss of E2-expressing episomes from cells in which integration had previously occurred would be required for such cells to gain a growth advantage. Using the unique W12 model of cervical squamous carcinogenesis, we show that cells containing integrated HPV16 reproducibly emerged during long-term culture when there had been a rapid fall in episome numbers. During the period of emergence it is possible to isolate single-cell clones containing an intracellular mixture of the integrant being selected and episomes at reduced load. Microarray analysis showed that episome loss was closely associated with endogenous activation of antiviral response genes that are also inducible by the type I interferon (IFN) pathway. Taken together, our results indicate that episome loss, associated with induction of antiviral response genes, is a key event in the spontaneous selection of cervical keratinocytes containing integrated HPV16. We conclude that cervical carcinogenesis requires not only HRHPV integration, but also loss of inhibitory episomes.

Description
Aim of the experiment is the analysis of early and late molecular events in plant response to canopy shade. To this end, gene expression changes were analysed in Arabidopsis seedlings after exposure to low R/FR light for 4 hours and 1 day. The experiment was designed to enable comparison between treated and untreated Arabidopsis seedlings.

- Affymetrix E. coli Genome 2.0 Array (ecoli2)
Description
Promoter recognition by bacterial RNA polymerase is mediated by subunits, which assemble transiently to RNA polymerase core enzyme (E) during transcription initiation. subunits drive transcription of specific sets of genes by allowing RNA polymerase to interact with different promoter sequences. However, 70, the housekeeping subunit, and S, an alternative subunit mainly active during slow growth and in response to cellular stresses, appear to recognize almost identical promoter sequences, raising the question of how promoter selectivity is achieved in the bacterial cell. To identify sequence determinants for selective promoter recognition, we performed a run-off/microarray experiment (ROMA): in vitro transcription experiments were carried out with RNA polymerase saturated either with 70 (E70) or with S (ES) using the whole Escherichia coli genome as DNA template, and transcript levels were determined by microarray analysis. We found that several genes associated with bacterial growth (e.g., ribosomal operons) were transcribed more efficiently by E70. In contrast, ES transcribed preferentially genes involved in stress responses, secondary metabolism, as well as regulatory RNAs and intergenic regions with yet unknown function. Genes preferentially recognized in vitro by ES showed reduced expression in ES -deficient mutant strain of E. coli. Sequence comparison of E70- versus ES dependent promoters confirms that the presence of a -35 sequence and the relative location of UP elements affect promoter interaction with either form of RNA polymerase, and suggests that a G/C bias in the -2/+1 nucleotides would favour efficient promoter recognition by E70.

Description
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a global health problem. A number of studies have implicated a direct role of cellular lipid metabolism in the HCV life cycle and inhibitors of the mevalonate pathway have been demonstrated to result in an antiviral state within the host cell. Transcriptome profiling was also conducted on Huh-7 human hepatoma cells bearing subgenomic HCV replicons with and without treatment with 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC), an inhibitor of the mevalonate pathway that alters lipid metabolism, to assess metabolic determinants of pro- and antiviral states within the host cell.

Description
This is a study to explore the transcriptional changes after Adjudin treatment in adult rat testes at three time points (control, 8 hour and 4 day). Adjudin, [1-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-1H-indazole-3-carbohydrazide], is a potential male contraceptive that targets the Sertoli-germ cell interface and causes germ cell depletion from the seminiferous epithelium. Adjudin has been proved to be a useful model to study the mechanisms that regulate junction restructuring in the testis.
Publication Title
Unraveling the molecular targets pertinent to junction restructuring events during spermatogenesis using the Adjudin-induced germ cell depletion model.
