Description
To identify genes dysregulated in bipolar disorder (BD1) we carried out global gene expression profiling using whole-genome microarrays. To minimize genetic variation in gene expression levels between cases and controls we compared expression profiles in lymphoblastoid cell lines from monozygotic twin pairs discordant for the disease. We identified 82 genes that were differentially expressed by 1.3-fold in 3 BD1 cases compared to their co-twins, and which were statistically (p 0.05) differentially expressed between the groups of BD1 cases and controls. Using qRT-PCR we confirmed the differential expression of some of these genes, including: KCNK1, MAL, PFN2, TCF7, PGK1, and PI4KCB, in at least 2 of the twin pairs. In contrast to the findings of a previous study by Kakiuchi and colleagues with similar discordant BD1 twin design1 our data do not support the dysregulation of XBP1 and HSPA5. From pathway and gene ontology analysis we identified up-regulation of the WNT signalling pathway and the biological process of apoptosis. The differentially regulated genes and pathways identified in this study may provide insights into the biology of BD1.

Description
During early development, the correct establishment of the body axes is a critical step. The anterior pole of the mouse embryo is established when Distal Visceral Endoderm (DVE) cells migrate to form the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Asymmetrical expression of Lefty1, Cerl and Dkk determines the direction of DVE migration and the future anterior side. Besides being implicated in the establishment of Anterior-Posterior axis the AVE has also been correlated with anterior neural specification. In order to better understand the role of the AVE in these processes, this cell population was isolated using a cerlP-EGFP transgenic mouse line, and a differential screening was performed using Affymetrix GeneChip technology. From this differential screening, 175 genes were found to be upregulated in the AVE, whereas 35 genes were upregulated in the Proximal-posterior sample. Using DAVID, here we characterize the AVE cell population regarding cellular component, molecular function and biological processes. Among the genes that were found to be upregulated in the AVE, several novel genes with expression in the AVE were identified. Four of the identified transcripts displaying high-fold change were further characterized by in situ hybridization in early stages of development in order to validate the screening. From those four selected genes, ADTK1 was chosen to be functionally characterized by targeted inactivation in ES cells. ADTK1 encodes for an unknown serine/threonine kinase. ADTK null mutants present short limbs and defects in the eye and ear. Taken together, these data point to the importance of reporting novel genes present in the AVE.

Description
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can enter different pathways in mammalian cells, including sequence-specific RNA interference, sequence-independent interferon response and editing by adenosine deaminases. To assess the potential of expressed dsRNA to induce interferon stimulated genes in somatic cells, we performed microarray analysis of HEK293 and HeLa cells transfected with a MosIR plasmid expressing an mRNA with a long inverted repeat structure in its 3UTR (MosIR) or with a parental MosIR plasmid (without inverted repeat) as a control.

Description
The -amyloid precursor protein APP and the related APLPs, undergo complex proteolytic processing giving rise to several fragments. Whereas it is well established that A accumulation is a central trigger for Alzheimer disease (AD), the physiological role of APP family members and their diverse proteolytic products is still largely unknown. The secreted APPs ectodomain has been shown to be involved in neuroprotection and synaptic plasticity. The -secretase generated APP intracellular domain AICD, functions as a transciptional regulator in heterologous reporter assays, although its role for endogenous gene regulation has remained controversial. To gain further insight into the molecular changes associated with knockout phenotypes and to elucidate the physiological functions of APP family members including their proposed role as transcriptional regulators we performed a DNA microarray transcriptome profiling of the frontal cortex of adult wild type, APP-/-, APLP2-/- and APPs knockin (KI) mice, APP/, expressing solely the secreted APPs ectodomain. Biological pathways affected by the lack of APP family members included regulation of neurogenesis, regulation of transcription and regulation of neuron projection development. Comparative analysis of transcriptome changes and qPCR validation identified co-regulated gene sets. Interestingly, these included heat shock proteins and plasticity related genes that were down-regulated in knock-out cortices. In contrast, we failed to detect significant differences in expression of previously proposed AICD target genes including Bace1, Kai1, Gsk3b, p53, Tip60 and Vglut2. Only Egfr was slightly up-regulated in APLP2-/- mice. Comparison of APP-/- and APP/ with wild-type mice revealed a high proportion of co-regulated genes indicating an important role of the C-terminus for cellular signaling. Finally, comparison of APLP2-/- on different genetic backgrounds revealed that background related transcriptome changes may dominate over changes due to the knockout of a single gene. Shared transcriptome profiles corroborated closely related physiological functions of APP family members in the adult central nervous system. As expression of proposed AICD target genes was not altered in adult cortex, this may indicate that these genes are not affected by lack of APP under resting conditions or only in a small subset of cells.
