Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Resident stem/progenitor cells in the lung are important for tissue homeostasis and repair. However, a progenitor population for alveolar type II (ATII) cells in adult human lungs have not been identified. Here we isolated alveolar epithelial progenitor cells (AEPCs) from adult human lungs. AEPCs showed mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-like characteristics combined with ATII cell-phenotypes. AEPCs had the capability for self-renewal and the potential to generate ATII cells in vitro. Furthermore, cells expressing similar markers were present within alveolar walls in normal lungs and these cells were significantly increased in ATII cell hyperplasias. These results suggest that adult human lungs contain a progenitor population for ATII cells.

Description
Cell lines derived from NK cell neoplasms were characterized using RNA sequencing and high-throughput drug sensitivity profiling to identify therapeutically actionable drivers in malignant NK cells. Overall design: RNA sequencing data was obtained from natural killer and T cell lines for gene expression profiling and mutation detection in parallel with drug sensitivity profiling. The ''NK_cell_line_GEO_drug_sensitivity.txt'' contains drug sensitivity scores of cell lines screened using 459 compounds. Breifly, compounds were preprinted on 384-well plates (Corning) in five different concentrations covering a 10,000-fold concentration range with an acoustic liquid handling device (Echo 550, Labcyte Inc.) and dissolved in 5 l culture medium on a shaker for 10 min. 20 l of single-cell suspension of cell lines (3,000 cells per well) were dispensed using Multi-Drop Combi peristaltic dispenser (Thermo Scientific). Plates were incubated at 37 C and 5% CO2 for 72 h after which cell viability was measured using CellTiter-Glo 2.0 reagent (Promega) according to the manufacturer s instructions with a Pherastar FS plate reader (BMG Labtech). Cell viability luminescence data were normalized to DMSO-only wells (negative control) and 100 mM benzethonium chloride-containing wells (positive control). The data were quantified using the drug sensitivity score (DSS) (Yadav et al., Scientific Reports 2014).

Description
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), which are multipotent cells to differentiate into several cell types, are expected to be a useful tool for cellular therapy. In some clinical settings, hMSCs have immuno-suppressive effects for GVHD (Graft-versus-host disease) and are expanded in vitro before application. To find biomarkers that indicate the culture stage of hMSCs, we performed microarray analysis for hMSCs derived from bone marrow, using Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 (54,613 probe sets).

Description
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and AR downstream signalings promote prostate cancer cell proliferation. Androgen-deprivation therapy is the first-line treatment strategy for advanced prostate cancer. However, many tumors develop to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and relapse. Thus, analyzing key factors for development of CRPC is important. We found PSF functions as RNA binding protein and transcription factor to promote castration-resistant tumor growth. High expression of PSF in metastatic prostate cancer tissue indicates the clinical relevance.

Description
Alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cells play a critical role in homeostasis and repair process of the lungs. In lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), ATII cells are damaged and fall into apoptosis or senescence. Until to date, global gene expression of ATII cells in COPD lungs has not been analyzed. We isolated ATII cells from three non-COPD and three COPD patients using a FACS method. Then, we performed microarray analysis to compare gene expression profiles of ATII cells between non-COPD and COPD patients.

Description
We developed a novel culture system to obtain multilineage undifferentiated stem/progenitor cells from normal human thyroid tissues. This seems to be achieved by direct reprogramming of thyroid follicular cells. The objective of the study was to reveal gene expression profile of the obtained cells compared to primary thyrocytes. After enzymatic digestion, primary thyrocytes, expressing thyroglobulin and cytokeratin-18, were cultured in a serum-free medium called SAGM containing insulin and EGF. Although the vast majority of cells died, a small proportion (~0.5%) survived and proliferated. During initial cell expansion, thyroglobulin/cytokeratin-18 expression was gradually declined, suggesting that those cells are derived from thyroid follicular cells or at least thyroid-committed cells. The SAGM-grown cells did not express any thyroid-specific genes. However, after four-week incubation with FBS and TSH, cytokeratin-18, thyroglobulin, TSH receptor, PAX8 and TTF1 expressions re-emerged. Moreover, surprisingly, the cells were capable of differentiating into neuronal or adipogenic lineage depending on differentiating conditions.

The use of in vitro cell culture systems has been of central importance for research of physiology, pharmacology, and toxicology, and functions at the cellular and molecular levels. We have developed an immortalized oral epithelial cell line ROE2 from fetal transgenic rats harboring temperature-sensitive simian virus 40 large T-antigen. Here, to identify genes involved in ROE2 cell differentiation, global-scale gene expression analysis was carried out using a GeneChip system.
