Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
There is much evidence that T cells may be activated via mechanisms which act independently of direct TCR ligation. Despite this, the question of whether such forms of bystander T cell activation occur during immune responses is hotly debated.
Publication Title
Human CD4+ memory T cells are preferential targets for bystander activation and apoptosis.

Description
Cell migration is central to many biological processes including embryonic development, wound healing, and cancer progression. Cell migration is sensitive to environmental stiffness, and many cell types exhibit a stiffness optimum at which migration is maximal. Here we present a cell migration simulator that predicts a stiffness optimum that can be shifted by altering the number of active molecular motors and clutches. This prediction is verified experimentally by comparing cell traction and F-actin retrograde flow for two cell types with differing amounts of active motors and clutches: embryonic chick forebrain neurons (ECFNs; optimum ~1 kPa) and U251 glioma cells (optimum ~100 kPa). In addition, the model predicts, and experiments confirm, that the stiffness optimum of U251 glioma cell migration, morphology, and F-actin retrograde flow rate can be shifted to lower stiffness by simultaneous drug inhibition of myosin II motors and integrin-mediated adhesions.

- Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Experiment: Expression profiling in breast cancer brain metastases (BC) compared to breast cancers (BC) and primary brain tumors (prBT). The objectives are to identify expression profiles that are specific to BCBM in order to identify new molecular biomarkers. The characterization of the BCBM samples included adjacent genetic techniques.

Description
Experiment: Establishment of expression profiles in a brain metastasis from a PTC (RNA processing and hybridization to Affymetrix microarray done twice to yield a technical replicate), in non-brain metastatic, stage III and IV PTCs, and primary brain tumors. Biostatistics analysis identified genes and biofunctions related to the brain metastatic PTC.

Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx
Description
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) continues to have the lowest survival rates of all leukemias. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to improve clinical outcomes for AML patients. Here, we report a novel role for Wilms’ tumor 1-associated protein (WTAP) in pathogenesis of AML. We have performed RNA-Seq in K562 cells with knockdown of WTAP to ascertain which genes it regulates. Overall design: We have 2 replicates of total RNA for K562 cells and 2 replicates with WTAP knocked down
Publication Title
WTAP is a novel oncogenic protein in acute myeloid leukemia.

- Illumina HumanWG-6 v3.0 expression beadchip
Description
Infection with the human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) remains asymptomatic in the majority of carriers; however, some 5% develop a chronic inflammation of the central nervous system termed HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (HAM). It is not well understood how the virus triggers the onset of HAM after many years of clinical latency and importantly, what distinguishes hosts who develop the disease from those who remain asymptomatic. In this study we tested the hypothesis that patients with HAM can be distinguished from asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs) and uninfected subjects by their whole blood transcriptional profiles. Here, we compare unstimulated whole blood gene expression profiles of 20 asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs), 10 patients with HAM and 9 uninfected healthy control subjects to (1) identify a transcriptional signature associated with presence of HAM and (2) identify cell types and pathways abnormally regulated in HAM by canonical and modular pathway analysis.

Description
Infection with the human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) remains asymptomatic in the majority of carriers; however, some 5% develop a chronic inflammation of the central nervous system termed HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (HAM). It is not well understood how the virus triggers the onset of HAM after many years of clinical latency and importantly, what distinguishes hosts who develop the disease from those who remain asymptomatic. In a previous study we identified a 80-gene transcriptional signature of HAM based in the hypothesis that patients with HAM can be distinguished from asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs) and uninfected subjects by their whole blood transcriptional profiles. In this study we wished to validate the 80-gene signature on an independent cohort comprising 17 asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers (ACs), 10 patients with HAM and 8 uninfected healthy control subjects.

Description
Relative levels of RNA transcripts were compared between anterior and posterior wing bud thirds from stage HH24 normal and talpid3 mutant chicken embryos using chicken Affymetrix chips. Data collected with Affymetrix scanner was normalized using the Plier algorithm within the expression console package from Affymetrix and log2 transformed. 5 replicates of anterior third normal wing buds, 4 replicates of posterior third of normal wing buds and 4 replicates each of anterior and posterior thirds of talpid3 wing buds at stage HH24 were examined.
