View SamplesThe Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (ERBB2 or HER2) is amplified and overexpressed in approximately 20% of invasive breast cancers and is associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. Here we describe the role of a constitutively active splice variant of HER2 (Delta-HER2) in human mammary epithelial cells. Overexpression of Delta-HER2 in human mammary cells decreased apoptosis and increased proliferation and expression of epithelial-to-mesenchymal markers. It also induced invasion in three-dimensional cultures and promoted tumorigenicity and metastasis in vivo. In contrast, similar overexpression of wild-type HER2 failed to evoke the same effects. Unbiased protein-tyrosine phosphorylation profiling revealed a significant increase in phosphorylation of several key signaling proteins upon Delta-HER2 expression, some of which not previously shown to belong to the HER2 pathway. In addition, microarray analysis revealed the expression of a set of genes specifically associated with Delta-HER2 expression. We found those genes to be highly expressed in ER-negative, high grade and metastatic primary breast tumors. Altogether, these results provide new insights into the function of a tumorigenic splice variant of HER2 and the signaling cascade deriving from its activity

View SamplesWe synthesized the PAX8-NFE2L2 fusion transcript and cloned it into a lentiviral vector, and used this to overexpress it in the murine prostate adenocarcinoma cell line TRAMP-C1. Overall design: We used high coverage RNA sequencing (>30 million reads per sample) to compare the expression profiles of cells expressing the PAX8-NFE2L2 fusion transcript to cells transduced with an empty vector.

View SamplesSome of the functions and mechanisms of PPAR?-mediated regulation of vascular homeostasis have been revealed, the potential role of PPAR? in angiogenesis is obscure. In human ECs, PPAR?-deficiency was studied using siRNA strategy and RNA sequencing was utilized to reveal angiogenesis-associated targets for PPARg. Overall design: Our aim is to reveal the possible role of PPARy in angiogenesis.

View SamplesDevelopmental transitions can be described in terms of morphology and individual genes expression patterns, but also in terms of global transcriptional and epigenetic changes. Most of the large-scale studies of such transitions, however, have only been possible in synchronized cell culture systems. Here we generate a cell type specific transcriptome of an adult stem-cell lineage in the Arabidopsis leaf using RNA sequencing and microarrays. RNA profiles of stomatal entry, commitment, and differentiating cells, as well as of mature stomata and the entire aerial epidermis give a comprehensive view of the developmental progression.
Transcriptome dynamics of the stomatal lineage: birth, amplification, and termination of a self-renewing population.
