Affymetrix Mouse Expression 430A Array (moe430a)
Description
The SV40 large (LT) and small (st) antigens are produced from a single alternatively spliced pre-mRNA, that when co-expressed, transform a variety of cells in vitro and in vivo. However, 17kT, a relatively uncharacterized third protein that is co-linear with LT for the first 131 amino acids, is also produced from the early viral pre-mRNA by removal of an additional intron from the LT transcript. Here we report a line of transgenic mice expressing a liver-specific dox-inducible viral transcript that fails to yield any detectable LT protein, yet produces abundant 17kT. Comparative analysis of livers of transgenic mice expressing either 17kT or LT demonstrates that while 17kT is a potent stimulator of cell proliferation, it is ineffective at inducing liver tumor development, due in part, to the failure of 17kT to effectively induce the expression of growth regulators and reactivate expression of imprinted and developmentally regulated hepatic genes. These studies highlight key functional differences between LT and 17kT in their ability to transform quiescent primary epithelial cells in vivo, and demonstrate how specific functional domains within LT impact cell-specific gene expression to promote oncogenesis.
Publication Title
Comparative analysis of SV40 17kT and LT function in vivo demonstrates that LT's C-terminus re-programs hepatic gene expression and is necessary for tumorigenesis in the liver.

Description
Non-switched memory (ME-M) B cells are an enigmatic population of IgM+ memory lymphocytes that are thought to emerge from germinal centers during systemic antibody responses against T cell-dependent antigens. To gain new insights into the properties of ME-M B cells generated during intestinal antibody responses, we performed global gene transcriptome expression analysis on nave, ME-M and canonical memory class-switched (ME-SW) B cells purified from human gut samples. Marginal zone (MZ) and ME-SW B cells isolated from human spleen samples were used for comparison.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
A delay in the mammalian inflammatory response is a prominent feature of infection with Yersinia pestis, the agent of bubonic and pneumonic plague. Y. pestis factors have been identified that either do not stimulate a normal inflammatory response, or actively suppress it. Prominent among these are components of the Type III secretion system that is encoded on the Yersinia virulence plasmid (pYV). We used a rat model of bubonic plague to characterize the kinetics and extent of the mammalian transcriptomic response to infection with wild-type or pYV-negative Y. pestis in the draining lymph node. Remarkably, dissemination and multiplication of wild-type Y. pestis during the bubonic stage of disease did not induce any detectable gene expression response by host lymph node cells. This was followed, however, by an extensive transcriptomic response, including upregulation of several cytokine, chemokine, and other immune response genes, after systemic spread during septicemic plague. Matched lymph node samples used for histopathology and extracellular cytokine measurements, combined with the microarray data set, broadly outlined the mammalian immune response to Y. pestis and how it is influenced by pYV-encoded factors. The results indicate that both WT and pYV Y. pestis induce primarily a Th17 response, and not a Th1 or Th2 response. In the absence of pYV, a sustained recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, the major Th17 effector cell, to the lymph node resulted in clearance of infection. Thus, the ability to counteract a Th17- driven PMN response in the lymph node appears to be a major function of the Y. pestis virulence plasmid. In contrast, classic markers of the proinflammatory response and macrophage activation, such as TNF- and IFN-, were not induced at all by pYV Y. pestis, and appeared only late in infection with WT Y. pestis.

Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
Purpose: Identify whole lung gene expression patterns in a house dust mite model of mild/moderate asthma Methods: Lung gene expression profiles of 10 week old BALB/c female mice were generated by ribosome-depleted, 150 nt, paired-end, stranded RNA-seq with Illumina HiSeq v4. Sequence reads that passed quality filters after trimming were analyzed with Sailfish-cir to identify linear RNAs and circular RNAs. Differential expression of linear RNAs was assessed with Deseq2 . QRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green methods. Results: 100 million sequence reads per sample were mapped to the mouse genome (build mm10) using Sailfish-cir to identify linear and circular RNA transcripts. Pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes identified upregulation of gene sets for human asthma, mouse lung allergic inflammation, Muc5ac regulated genes and smooth muscle genes after allergic sensitization. Gene level exppression in each asthma-related pathway was reduced by the miR-145 antagonist. The miR-145 antagonist and several nontargeting oligos also upregulated interferon signaling pathways suggesting a general antiinflammatory effect of LNA/DNA oligos in the lung. Conclusions: Lung-directed delivery of LNA/DNA oligonucleotides with cationic lipid nanoparticles is an efffective means to prevent inflammatory gene expression in a house dust mite model of mild/moderate asthma. Overall design: Linear and circular RNA transcript expression was compared in whole lung tissue from unsensitized, house dust mite sensitzed, antimiR-145 treated treated mice

Purpose: Identify whole lung gene expression patterns modified by nanoparticle delivery of an antisense LNA/DNA oligonucleotide targeting mmu-miR145a-5p and nontargeting oligonucleotides Methods: Lung gene expression profiles of 10 week old BALB/c female mice were generated by polyA RNA-seq with Illumina HiSeq v4. Sequence reads that passed quality filters after timming were analyzed at the gene level with RNA STAR, featureCounts and Deseq2 . qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green methods. Results: 10-15 million sequence reads per sample were mapped to the mouse genome (build mm10). Pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes identified upregulation of gene sets for human asthma, mouse lung allergic inflammation, Muc5ac regulated genes and smooth muscle genes after allergic sensitization. Gene level exppression in each asthma-related pathway was reduced by the miR-145 antagonist.

Description
We found that the non-essential amino acid L-Proline (L-Pro) acts as a signaling molecule that promotes the conversion of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into mesenchymal-like, spindle-shaped, highly motile, invasive pluripotent stem cells. This embryonic stem cell-to-mesenchymal-like transition (esMT) is accompanied by a genome-wide remodeling of the transcriptome

Description
Primary tumors have been shown to prepare distal organs for later colonization of metastatic cells by stimulating organ-specific infiltration of bone marrow-derived cells. Here we demonstrate that neutrophils accumulate in the lung prior to the arrival of metastatic cells in mouse models of breast cancer. Tumor-entrained neutrophils (TENs) inhibit metastatic seeding in the lungs by generating H2O2, and tumor-secreted CCL2 is a critical mediator of optimal anti-metastatic entrainment of G-CSF-stimulated neutrophils. TENs are present in the peripheral blood of breast cancer patients prior to surgical resection but not in healthy individuals. Thus, while tumor-secreted factors contribute to tumor progression at the primary site, they concomitantly induce a neutrophil-mediated inhibitory process at the metastatic site.
