Aberrant gene expression analysis between peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples from healthy individuals and patients with pancreatic carcinoma, gastric carcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were identified using Affymetrix gene arrays.
A blood-based three-gene signature for the non-invasive detection of early human hepatocellular carcinoma.

View SamplesTo assess how the TOX3 nuclear protein can modulate gene expression in luminal epithelial cells, MCF7 cells were transfected with a TOX3 expression vector or vector control. In both instances, GFP was coexpressed, allowing isolation of transfected cells by flow cytometry before transcriptome analysis. Experiments were carried out under estrogen depleted conditions, and cells isolated 48 hours after transfection.
TOX3 is expressed in mammary ER(+) epithelial cells and regulates ER target genes in luminal breast cancer.

View SamplesThe sclera maintains and protects the eye ball, which receives visual inputs. The aim of this study is to identify characteristics of the human sclera as one of the connective tissues derived from the neural crest and mesoderm. We have here demonstrated microarray data of cultured human scleral cells.
Human sclera maintains common characteristics with cartilage throughout evolution.

View SamplesIL-4/GFP- enhanced transcript (4Get) reporter mice were infected with 200 PFU of Influenza A virus PR8 strain. At day 3 of infection, mediastinal lymph nodes were harvested and GFP+ cells sorted and separated by their ability to bind a CD1d-tetramer (Tet+ n=133 , Tet- n=109 ). Single-cell RNA-Seq was used to identify subpopulations of IL-4 producing cells. Single-cell transcriptomes were clustered using Seurat and differentially expressed genes within each cluster were used to resolve IL-4+ subpopulations and aid in defining their role in initiating B cell immunity during influenza infection. Overall design: Examine cells involved in accute viral response in the lymph node after influenza infection

View SamplesIllumina sequencing was used to assay the effect of mifepristone treatment on gene expression in adult Drosophila, including males, virgin females and mated females. Overall design: Males of strain w[1118]; p53B[6] were crossed to virgins of w[1118]; rtTA(3)E2 and progeny males and virgins were collected over 48 hours. One half of the virgins were mated to w[1118] males at ratio of 1:1 virgins to males for 4 days. Mated females were then separated from the w[1118] males. The mated females, males and virgins females were then maintained at approximately 20 flies per vial, on food with and without supplementation with 160ug/ml mifepristone for 12 days. Total fly RNA was isolated from 20 animals per sample. Three replicate samples were generated for each type of flies: males, mated females and virgin females.
The progesterone antagonist mifepristone/RU486 blocks the negative effect on life span caused by mating in female Drosophila.
