Description
Preeclampsia (PE) is a complex, heterogeneous disorder of pregnancy, demonstrating considerable variability in observed maternal symptoms and fetal outcomes. We hypothesized that this heterogeneity is due to the existence of multiple molecular forms of PE. To address our hypothesis, we created a large (N=330) human placental microarray data set consisting of seven previously published studies (GSE30186, GSE10588, GSE24129, GSE25906, GSE43942, GSE4707, and GSE44711) and 157 highly annotated samples from a BioBank (below).

Description
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a heterogeneous disorder of pregnancy associated with pathologically low fetal and neonatal weights. We hypothesized that FGR consists of multiple placental subtypes, similar to what we have observed in preeclampsia. To address this hypothesis, we assembled a fetal growth-focused human placental microarray data set (N=97) consisting of 20 new normotensive suspected FGR samples (below), in addition to term controls (N=26) and hypertensive suspected FGR samples (N=51) from GSE75010.
Publication Title
Placental transcriptional and histologic subtypes of normotensive fetal growth restriction are comparable to preeclampsia.

Description
In order to understand how biochemical and genetic differences correlate with treatment response, we measured depressive-like behavior, gene expression and the levels of thirty-six neurobiochemical analytes across a panel of genetically-diverse mouse inbred lines after chronic treatment with vehicle or fluoxetine. Neurobiochemical markers were chosen based on their putative molecular function within pathways proposed to underlie depression, which include neuronal transmission, HPA-axis regulation, and neuroimmune processes. The goal of this study is to establish genetic and biochemical biomarkers that can predict treatment response and to propose a molecular pathway that is critical in mediating anti-depressant response.

Transcriptome and translatome analyses of 6 and 24 hours imbibed seeds dormant and non-dormant seeds of NILDOG1-Cvi with and without addition of the transcription inhibitor Cordycepin. NILDOG1-Cvi is the Ler WT containing an introgression of the Cvi accession on chromosome 5, which includes the DOG1 gene (Bentsink et al., 2006).

Description
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hematopoietic stem cell diseases characterized by dysplasia of one or more hematologic lineages and a high-risk of developing acute myeloid leukemia (AML). MDS patients have recurrent bacterial infections and abnormal expression of CD56 by monocytes. We investigated MDS patients’ bone marrow CD56+/CD56- monocytes and their in vitro derived dendritic cell (DCs) populations in comparison to cells obtained from disease-free subjects. We found that monocytes from MDS patients, irrespective of CD56 expression, have reduced phagocytosis activity and low expression of genes involved in triggering immune responses, regulation of immune and inflammatory response signaling pathways, and in the response to lipopolysaccharide. Dendritic cells (DCs) derived in vitro from MDS monocytes failed to develop dendritic projections and had reduced expression of HLA-DR and CD86 suggesting that antigen processing and T cell activation capabilities are impaired. In conclusion, we identified in both CD56+ and CD56- monocytes from MDS-patients several abnormalities that may be related to the increased susceptibility to infections observed in these patients.

Description
Tumor epithelial cells develop within a microenvironment consisting of extracellular matrix, growth factors, and cytokines produced by non-epithelial stromal cells. In response to paracrine signals from tumor epithelia, stromal cells modify the microenvironment to promote tumor growth and metastasis. Here, we identify interleukin (IL)-33 as an epithelial cell-derived regulator of stromal cell activation and mediator of intestinal polyposis. IL-33 expression was elevated in the tumors and serum of colorectal cancer patients and induced in the adenomatous polyps of ApcMin/+ mutant mice. Genetic and antibody suppression of IL-33 signaling in ApcMin/+ mice inhibited proliferation, induced apoptosis, and suppressed angiogenesis in polyps, which reduced both tumor number and size. In ApcMin/+ polyps, IL-33 expression localized to tumor epithelial cells and expression of the IL-33 receptor, IL1RL1, associated with two stromal cell types, namely subepithelial myofibroblasts (SEMFs) and mast cells, whose activation was previously associated with polyposis. In vitro IL-33 stimulation of human SEMFs induced the expression of extracellular matrix components and growth factors associated with intestinal tumor progression. IL-33 deficiency reduced mast cell accumulation in ApcMin/+ polyps and expression of mast cell-derived proteases and cytokines known to promote polyposis. Together, our results suggest that IL-33 is a tumor epithelial cell-derived paracrine signal that promotes polyposis through the coordinated activation of stromal cells and the formation of a reactive stroma microenvironment. Overall design: Six T-75 flasks of CCD-18Co cells were grown to 80% confluency; three were treated with rhIL-33, three were given vehicle control; cells were trypsinized and split in two--half of each flask used for sequencing and half for qPCR validation post-sequencing

Description
Objective: The etiology of PCOS is mostly unknown. Existing data support both genetic and environmental factors in its pathogenesis. Design: Prospective case - control study. Setting: University Hospital. Patients: 25 patients undergoing IVF-ICSI treatment. Intervention: Genome-wide oligonucleotide microarray technology was used to study differential gene-expression patterns of cultured human cumulus cells from IVF patients divided into 4 groups according to disease state (PCOS vs. Control) and BMI (Obese vs. Lean). Results: Two differential PCOS gene expression profiles were established: Lean-Type was formed by comparing PCOS lean (PL) vs. non-PCOS lean (NL) individuals; Obese-Type was formed by comparing PCOS obese (PO) vs. non-PCOS (NO) obese patients. Conclusions: Different molecular pathways are associated with PCOS in Lean and Obese individuals, as demonstrated by gene expression profiling of cumulus cells. Our findings provide insights into the molecular pathogenesis of PCOS.
