Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
We have examined the biological effect of EWS/ETS in human MPCs using UET-13 cells that are obtained by prolonging the lifespan of human bone marrow stromal cells using the retroviral transgenes hTERT and E7. By exploiting tetracycline-inducible systems for expressing EWS/ETS (EWS/FLI1 and EWS/ERG), we investigated candidates for genes whose expression is regulated by EWS/ETS in human MPCs.

Description
For identification of candidate genes that is specifically expressed in Ewing family tumor (EFT) cells, we performed DNA microarray-based global expression profiling using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array and analyxed expression profiles from EFT cell lines (7 lines), neuroblastoma (NB) cell lines (3 lines), a Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) cell line, and a human immortalized mesenchymal progenitor cells UET-13 cells.

Description
To predict Rp58-regulated gene involved in myogenesis, RNA profiling experiments were performed, comparing RNA derived from C2C12 with or without expressing shRNA for Rp58. As a result, 271 genes were upregulated in C2C12 stably expressing shRNA-Rp58 cells compared with control C2C12 cells. As Rp58 is repressor in C2C12, we hypothesized that Rp58 regulates gene cluster which expression is downregulated in accordance with Rp58 expression and myogenesis progression. In this regard, we also characterized dynamic gene expression patterns during myogenesis by microarray at 4 different stage (GM, day 0, 2, 4) of C2C12 myogenesis assays and found that 399 genes expression is characterized as downregulation pattern during myogenesis. Importantly, this down regulation gene set and upregulated genes by shRNA for Rp58 were highly overlapped.

Description
To predict RP58-regulated genes involved in skeletal myogenesis, RNA profiling experiments were performed, comparing RNA derived from skeletal muscle tissue of a RP58+/+ mouse to that from a RP58 knockout (KO) mouse at E18.5. Importantly, well-known dominant-negative inhibitors of muscle differentiation, the Id family of genes (Id1/Id2/Id3), were upregulated in the RP58 KO muscle. On the contrary, a number of muscle differentiation-related genes, such as Ckm, troponin and Myosin, were downregulated in the same sample. These results indicate that the repressor protein RP58 is important for muscle terminal differentiation, possibly suppressing the gene expression of muscle differentiation genes such as the Ids.

Description
B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) is a heterogeneous disease that can be subdivided according to primary recurrent genetic abnormalities that are strongly associated with characteristic biological and clinical features. The detection of these abnormalities can facilitate diagnosis, risk stratification, and targeted therapy.

Description
The placenta is considered one of the candidate cell sources in cellular therapeutics because of a large number of cells and heterogenous cell population with myogenic potentials. We first analyzed myogenic potential of cells obtained from six parts of the placenta, i.e., umbilical cord, amniotic epithelium, amniotic mesoderm, chorionic plate, villous chorion (chorion frondosum), , and decidua basalis. Implantation of placenta-derived cells into dystrophic muscles of immunodeficient mdx mice restored sarcolemmal expression of human dystrophin. Co-existence of human and murine nuclei in one myotube and presence of human dystrophin in murine myotube suggests that human dystrophin expression is due to cell fusion between host murine myocytes and implanted human cells. In vitro analysis revealed that cells derived from amniotic mesoderm, chorionic plate, ,and villous chorion efficiently transdifferentiate into myotubes. These cells fused to C2C12 murine myoblasts by in vitro co-culturing, and murine myoblasts start to express human dystrophin after fusion. These results demonstrate that placenta-derived cells, especially extraembryonic mesodermal cells, have a myogenic potential and regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle. Determination of cell specification with the gene chip analysis revealed that each placental cell has a distinct expression pattern.

Description
Chondrocytes from extra fingers exhibited a high proliferative capacity: the cells reached to population doublings (PD) 30-35 within 4 weeks before replicative senescence. The propagated cells formed hyaline cartilage at 2 weeks after subcutaneous implantation of NOD/Scid/IL-2 receptor gamma knock out (NOG) mice, and the generated cartilage showed enchondral ossification at 8 to 12 weeks. The cartilage formation with osteogenesis depends on the number of cell division in vitro.
