Affymetrix Murine Genome U74A Version 2 Array (mgu74av2)
Description
The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms implicated in this mouse model of nemaline myopathy, and to further compare the molecular disease response in different skeletal muscles. For this purpose, snap frozen skeletla muscle specimens from wild type and transgenic for alpha tropomyosin slow mice were studied. Five different muscle types were used (diaphragm, plantaris, extensor digitorum longus, tibialis anterior, gastrocnemus). Mice were sacrificed between 7 and 10 months. RNA pools from 3-5 animals were created and each pool was hybridized to a U74Av2 Affymetrix GeneChip. Datasets from 36 GeneChips were included in this study.

Description
cJun is a transcription factor activated by phosphorylation by SAPK/JNK MAP kinase pathway that has been linked to atherosclerosis. Adenovirus mediated gene transfer of a dominant negative form of cJun in C57BL/6 mice increased greatly the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) mRNA and plasma apoE levels and induced dyslipidmia, characterized by increased plasma cholesterol, triglyceride and VLDL levels and accumulation of discoidal HDL particles. Unexpectedly, infection of ApoE-/- mice with adenovirus expressing dn-cJun reduced by 50% plasma cholesterol, suggesting that the dn-cJun affected other genes that control plamsa cholesterol. To determine the molecular pathways implicated in this process we performed whole genome expression profiling using total RNA from the liver of infected ApoE-/- mice.
Publication Title
A dominant negative form of the transcription factor c-Jun affects genes that have opposing effects on lipid homeostasis in mice.

Description
Tumor Necrosis Factor- is greatly implicated in heart pathophysiology, while it is upregulated in the failing myocardium. A major target in TNF--induced heart failure is the muscle specific intermediate filament cytoskeleton, comprised by desmin. We analysed the effect of cardiac-specific overexpression of TNF- in the Des-/- myocardium, which is a known model of dilated cardiomyopathy.

Description
We show that Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) secreted-factor, pigment epithelium derived factor (PEDF) secreted/derived from primary or iPSC-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)RPE, dramatically inhibitsed the cell growth of iPSCs. PEDF was detected abundantly in culture supernatant media of primary and iPSC-derived RPE. We examined the gene expression in primary RPE and iPS-derived RPE.

Description
Cancer cells consume large amounts of glucose because of their specific metabolic pathway. However, cancer cells exist in tumor tissue where glucose is insufficient. To survive, cancer cells likely have the mechanism to elude their glucose addiction. Here we show that functional mitochondria are essential if cancer cells are to avoid glucose addiction.
Publication Title
Mitochondria regulate the unfolded protein response leading to cancer cell survival under glucose deprivation conditions.

Description
Ewings sarcoma is highly malignant bone tumor that involves childhood and adolescent, and its nature has not been well understood. To clarify its cellular origin and the mechanisms of tumorigenesis, we used ex vivo approach to create a murine model for Ewings sarcoma. The osteochondrogenic progenitors derived from the embryonic superficial zone (eSZ, designated as FZ in the data set) of murine long bones at late gestation were purified by microdissection, introduced with EWS-FLI1 or EWS-ERG retroviruses and transplanted into nude mice. Ewings sarcoma-like small round cell sarcoma developed at 100% penetrance, whereas tumor induction was less effective when growth place (GP)-derived cells were used. The different response of gene expression to EWS-FLI1 between eSZ and GP cells suggests importance of the specific cellular context for EWS-FLI1 to induce Ewings sarcoma. The Wnt/-catenin pathway was involved in close relationship to the cellular context, with Dkk2 and Wipf1 as important downstream modulators. Furthermore, gene expression profiling revealed similarity between our models and human Ewings sarcoma. These results indicate that Ewings sarcoma originates from the embryonic osteochondrogenic progenitor.
Publication Title
Ewing's sarcoma precursors are highly enriched in embryonic osteochondrogenic progenitors.
