In this dataset, we included expression data obtained from 30 resected human PDAC tumors, to examine what genes are differentially expressed in different cohorts that might lead to various outcomes

View SamplesComparative RNA seq analysis of WT and global p73KO Mouse Tracheal Epithelial Cell (MTECs) during the course of their differentiation (Air-Liquid Interface ALI D0, D4, D7, D14) aimed to determine the role of p73 in motile multiciliogenesis. Overall design: Three independent biological replicates of murine primary airway epithelial cell cultures (MTECs) from wild type and global p73KO mice were differentiated under air-liquid interface (ALI) conditions and harvested at Day 0, Day 4 , Day 7 and Day 14 post ALI.
TAp73 is a central transcriptional regulator of airway multiciliogenesis.

View SamplesTransplantation with low numbers of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), found in many of the publically accessible cryopreserved umbilical cord blood (UCB) units, leads to delayed time to engraftment, high graft failure rates, and early mortality in many patients. A chemical screen in zebrafish identified the prostaglandin compound, 16,16 dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (dmPGE2), to be a critical regulator of hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis. We hypothesized that an ex vivo modulation with dmPGE2 prior to transplantation would lead to enhanced engraftment by increasing the effective dose of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in cord blood. A phase I trial of reduced-intensity double UCB transplantation was performed to evaluate safety, rates of engraftment and fractional chimerism of dmPGE2 enhanced UCB units. To explore potential causes of the lack of enhanced efficacy in the first cohort, we characterized HSCs to determine whether the prostaglandin pathway was being activated under the ex vivo incubation conditions (4C, 10M dmPGE2, 60 minutes). Incubation conditions were identified (37C, 10M dmPGE2, 120 minutes) that maximize the activation of the prostaglandin pathway by dmPGE2 in human CD34+ cells.

View SamplesUmbilical cord blood (UCB) is a valuable source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for use in allogeneic transplantation. Key advantages of UCB are rapid availability and less stringent requirements for HLA matching. However, UCB contains an inherently limited HSC count, which is associated with delayed time to engraftment, high graft failure rates and early mortality. 16,16 dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (dmPGE2) was previously identified to be a critical regulator of HSC homeostasis and we hypothesized that a brief ex vivo modulation could improve patient outcomes by increasing the effective dose of HSCs.
