Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
This study investigated gene expression changes in whole blood samples obtained from donors diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) compared to healthy controls. Micro-array data were available from whole blood on patients with MDD (N=128, 64 with generalised anxiety disorder, diagnosed by the MINI questionnaire, and 64 without anxiety disorder) and healthy controls (N=64). RNA was isolated from all samples using the standard PAXgene protocol on the Qiagen Biorobot 8000. All samples gave good quality RNA, as assessed by Agilent Bioanalyser. The yield range was 0.86-15.05ug with an average of 6.25ug. Samples were then randomised into batches, with each batch containing a representative number of controls, depression with anxiety and depression without anxiety, and the same ratio of females to males (3:1). 50ng of RNA from each sample was converted to a biotin labeled cDNA probe using NuGEN SPIA amplification. The probes were then hybridized to Affymetrix U133_Plus2.0 Genechips.

Description
Bipolar affective disorder is a severe psychiatric disorder with a strong genetic component but unknown pathophysiology. We used microarray technology (Affymetrix HG-U133A GeneChips) to determine the expression of approximately 22 000 mRNA transcripts in post-mortem brain tissue (dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and orbitofrontal cortex) from patients with bipolar disorder and matched healthy controls.

Description
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is an indolent B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder characterised by 7q32 deletion, but the target genes of this deletion remain unknown. In order to elucidate the genetic target of this deletion, we performed an integrative analysis of the genetic, epigenetic, transcriptomic and miRNomic data. High resolution array comparative genomic hybridization of 56 cases of SMZL delineated a minimally deleted region (2.8Mb) at 7q32, but showed no evidence of any cryptic homozygous deletion or recurrent breakpoint in this region. Integrative transcriptomic analysis confirmed significant under-expression of a number of genes in this region in cases of SMZL with deletion, several of which showed hypermethylation. In addition, a cluster of 8 miRNA in this region showed under-expression in cases with the deletion, and three (miR-182/96/183) were also significantly under-expressed (P <0.05) in SMZL relative to other lymphomas. Genomic sequencing of these miRNA and IRF5, a strong candidate gene, did not show any evidence of somatic mutation in SMZL.

Bipolar affective disorder is a severe psychiatric disorder with a strong genetic component but unknown pathophysiology. We used microarray technology (Affymetrix HG-U133A GeneChips) to determine the expression of approximately 22 000 mRNA transcripts in post-mortem brain tissue (dorsolateral prefrontal cortex) from patients with bipolar disorder and matched healthy controls. A cohort of 70 subjects was investigated and the final analysis included 30 bipolar and 31 control subjects. Differences between disease and control groups were identified using a rigorous statistical analysis with correction for confounding variables and multiple testing.

Description
Delaying first childbirth is associated with a range of pregnancy complications, but the mechanisms underlying this are unclear. We have hypothesized that prolonged, cyclical, pre-pregnancy exposure to estrogen and progesterone contributes to age-related deterioration of uterine function. We conducted a series of studies in virgin mice of varying age and exposure to hormonal manipulations. We compared the myometrial transcript profile from young (10-12 weeks, n=7) and old (28-30 weeks, n=7) mice. We validated this list using a second experiment of young versus old mice housed in a different animal facility and comparing animals of 10-12 (n=8) and 38-40 (n=7) weeks of age. The pattern of change in these transcripts was very similar. We determined whether removal of the ovaries in early life (8-10 weeks of age) prevented age-related changes. When we compared old animals (38-40 weeks) which had early ovariectomy (n=7) with sham operated controls of the same age (n=7), we found that the transcripts which had been down-regulated by age were upregulated in old animals that had an early ovariectomy. The converse was observed for genes which had been downregulated by age. Hence, early ovariectomy prevented changes in myometrial gene expression associated with aging. We then studied the effect of prolonged, continuous exposure to progesterone between 8 and 36 weeks of age. When we compared old animals (38-40 weeks) that received progesterone implants from 8 to 36-38 weeks (n=10) with old animals receiving implants containing only vehicle (n=5), transcripts which had been down-regulated by age were upregulated by prolonged exposure to progesterone. The converse was observed for genes which had been downregulated by age. Hence, prolonged exposure to progesterone also ameliorated changes in myometrial gene expression associated with aging.

Description
Hox genes regionalize the animal body axis by modifying complex morphogenetic and differentiation processes during development. The transformation of wings into halteres by the Hox gene Ultrabithorax (Ubx) in Drosophila melanogaster presents an excellent model system to study the transcriptional networks that control such complex developmental programmes.
