View SamplesThis goal of this study was to investigate the gene expression effect of disease associated polymorphisms in the endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase genes ERAP1 and ERAP2. The enzymes ERAP1 and ERAP2, encoded on chromosome 5q15, function by trimming endogenously derived peptides for human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mediated presentation to the immune system. Polymorphisms in ERAP1 and/or ERAP2 have been observed in several immune-mediated diseases with specific HLA associations, implicating altered peptide handling and presentation as a prerequisite for immune autoreactivity. Evidence for the elevated expression or altered transcriptional profile of these genes in diseases characterised by immune autoreactivity provides grounds for the development of aminiopeptidase inhibitors for the therapeutic treatment of such conditions.

View SamplesThe purpose of the study was to assess the patterns of global gene expression in peripheral blood cells before and at three time points after the administration of a trivalent influenza vaccine in human male subjects, and to relate these to the antibody response to the vaccine. The antibody titer data for these subjects is provided as a supplemental file.

View SamplesThe molecular mechanisms whereby hepatitis B virus (HBV) induces hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain elusive. We used genomic and molecular techniques to investigate host-virus interactions by mapping the entire liver of patients with HCC. We compared the gene signature of whole liver tissue (WLT) versus laser capture-microdissected (LCM) hepatocytes with intrahepatic expression of HBV. Gene expression profiling was performed on up to 17 WLT specimens obtained at various distances from the tumor center in individual livers of 11 patients with HCC and on selected LCM samples. HBV biomarkers were determined by real-time PCR and confocal immunofluorescence. Analysis of 5 areas of the liver showed a sharp change in gene expression between the immediate perilesional area and tumor periphery that correlated with a significant decrease in the intrahepatic expression of HBsAg. The tumor was characterized by a large preponderance of down-regulated genes, mostly involved in the metabolism of lipid and fatty acid, glucose, amino acids and drugs, with down-regulation of pathways involved in the activation of PXR/RXR and PPARa/RXRa nuclear receptors, comprising PGC1 and FOXO1, two key regulators of the hepatic metabolic functions and HBV transcription. These findings were confirmed by gene expression of microdissected hepatocytes. However, LCM of malignant hepatocytes also revealed up-regulation of unique genes associated with cancer and signaling pathways, including two novel HCC-associated cancer testis antigen (CTA) genes, NUF2 and TTK. HCC-associated with HBV is characterized by a metabolism switch-off and by a significant reduction in HBsAg. LCM proved to be a critical tool to validate gene signatures associated with HCC and to identify genes that may play a role in hepatocarcinogenesis opening new perspectives for the discovery of novel diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets.

View SamplesMetastasis suppressor genes (MSGs) have contributed to an understanding of regulatory pathways unique to the lethal metastatic process. When re-expressed in experimental models, MSGs block cancer spread to, and colonization of distant sites without affecting primary tumor formation. On a single MSG basis, genes have been identified with expression patterns inverse to a MSG, and found to encode functional, druggable signaling pathways. We now hypothesize that common signaling pathways mediate the effects of many MSGs. By gene expression profiling of human MCF7 breast carcinoma cells expressing a scrambled siRNA or siRNAs to each of 19 validated MSGs (NME1, BRMS1, CD82, CDH1, CDH2, CDH11, CASP8, MAP2K4, MAP2K6, MAP2K7, MAPK14, GSN, ARHGDIB, AKAP12, DRG1, CD44, PEBP1, RRM1, KISS1), we identified genes whose expression was significantly opposite to at least five MSGs.
