Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
Gene expression profiling using microarray has been limited to profiling of differentially expressed genes at comparison setting since probesets for different genes have different sensitivities. We overcome this limitation by using a very large number of varied microarray datasets as a common reference, so that statistical attributes of each probeset, such as dynamic range or a threshold between low and high expression can be reliably discovered through meta-analysis. This strategy is implemented in web-based platform named Gene Expression Commons (http://gexc.stanford.edu/ ) with datasets of 39 distinct highly purified mouse hematopoietic stem/progenitor/functional cell populations covering almost the entire hematopoietic system. Since the Gene Expression Commons is designed as an open platform, any scientist can explore gene expression of any gene, search by expression pattern of interest, submit their own microarray datasets, and design their own working models.

Description
Metastatic relapse is the major cause of death in neuroblastoma (NB), yet there are no therapies to specifically target metastases. To understand the molecular mechanisms mediating NB metastasis, we developed a mouse model using intracardiac injection and in vivo selection to isolate metastatic subpopulations that exhibited a higher propensity for bone and central nervous system metastases. Gene expression profiling revealed two distinct subtypes, primary and metastatic, with differential regulation of 412 genes and multiple pathways including CADM1, SPHK1, and YAP/TAZ whose expression independently predicted survival. Loss- and gain-of-function experiments with these genes demonstrated a rescue of metastatic phenotypes in multiple NB cell lines in vitro or in vivo. Treatment with the compounds SKI II and Verteporfin that target SPHK1 and YAP/TAZ, respectively, inhibited NB metastasis in vivo. In addition, using gene expression profiling from the metastatic subpopulations, a gene signature (MET-75) was identified that predicts NB survival of patients with metastatic disease. This model therefore identifies genes regulating metastasis and candidate therapeutics for metastatic NB

Description
The Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway is a tractable target for the pharmacological prevention of tumorigenesis. 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (D3T) and 1-[2-cyano-3,12-dioxooleana-1,9(11)-dien-28-oyl]imidazole (CDDO-Im) are representative members of two classes of Nrf2-activating chemopreventive agents. Natural dithiolethiones have been widely used in clinical trials for cancer chemoprevention. Synthetic triterpenoids, however, have been shown to be significantly more potent Nrf2 activators and are under clinical evaluation for the treatment of chronic kidney disease. This study seeks to characterize the structure-activity relationship between D3T and CDDO-Im in mouse liver tissue. To this end we treated Wt and Nrf2-null mice with 300 umol/kg bw D3T and 3, 10, and 30 umol/kg bw CDDO-Im every other day for 5 days and evaulated global gene expression changes as a product of both treamtent and genotype using Affymetrix microarray.

Description
To understand the interplay between cancer and stroma, we performed single cell RNA-sequencing of PDAC cells admixed with stromal fibroblasts and defined different single cell populations with varying levels of proliferative and metastatic transcriptional states. PDAC cell behavior in vitro and in vivo on these phenotypic axes could be tuned with the proportion of stromal fibroblasts. These cell types were identified in human pancreatic tumors, and specific subpopulations were associated with worsened outcomes. Overall design: 92 single PDAC cells and 92 single CAF cells were micromanipulated and prepared for sequencing (23 of each cell type from four culture ratios). The 24th sample from each cell type-culture condition combination is a population control obtained by micromanipulating 100 cells of the given type from the given culture condition and preparing it as if it were a single cell, giving a total of 96 PDAC samples and 96 CAF samples. During the course of library construction, 3 samples were lost, all PDAC cells from the 30:70 condition (two single cells and the population control), leaving 93 total PDAC samples and 96 total CAF samples.

The purpose of this study was to characterize the transcriptional effects induced by intramuscular IFN-beta-1a treatment (Avonex, 30 g once weekly) in patients with relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis (MS). By using Affymetrix DNA microarrays, we obtained genome-wide expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 24 MS patients within the first four weeks of IFN-beta administration.

Description
Disseminated prostate cancer cells colonize the skeleton to progress into macroscopic lesions only if they successfully adapt to the bone microenvironment. We previously reported that the ability of prostate cancer cells to generate skeletal tumors in animal models correlated with the expression of the alpha-receptor for Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGFRa). In this study we aimed to identify PDGFRa-regulated genes responsible for the acquisition of a bone-metastatic prostate phenotype. We performed genome-wide expression comparative analyses of human prostate cancer cell lines that differ for PDGFRa expression and propensity to establish tumors in the skeleton of animal models. We investigated the genes that were differentially regulated in the highly bone-metastatic PC3-ML cells and their low-metastatic counterpart PC3-N cells, and the genes differentially regulated between PC3-N and PC3-N with overexpression of PDGFRa (PC3NRa). We have previously shown that DU-145 cells lack PDGFRa and fail to survive longer than three days as disseminated tumor cells after homing to the mouse bone marrow. Interestingly, and in contrast to PC3-N cells, the exogenous expression of PDGFRa did not promote metastatic bone-tropism of DU-145 cells in our model. Thus, we examined the genes that were differentially regulated between DU-145 and DU-145(Ra) and excluded them from our candidate genes. Finally, to refine our findings and compensate for PC3 and DU-145 genetic disparity, we performed a comparative analysis of the genes differentially regulated between two bone metastatic single-cell progenies that were derived from PC3-ML cells.

Transcriptional profiles of uropathogenic Escherichia coli CFT073 exposed to cranberry-derived proanthocyanidins (PACs) were determined. Our results indicate that bacteria grown on media supplemented with PACs were iron-deprived. To our knowledge, this is the first time that PACs have been shown to induce a state of iron-limitation in this bacterium.

Work previously published by our group has demonstrated that T cells from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) show differentially regulated genes compared with healthy T cells. This study was initiated to examine if these gene expression changes were unique to CLL T cells or common to an alternative leukaemia, acute myeloid leukaemia (AML).
