Affymetrix Mouse Expression 430A Array (moe430a)
Description
Serum response factor (SRF), a MADS-box transcription factor, is essential for murine embryonic development and for the function of muscle cells and neurons. SRF and its transcriptional co-factors are broadly expressed. To determine the in vivo role of SRF in developing lymphocytes we specifically inactivated the murine Srf gene during T or B cell development using lymphocyte-specific Cre transgenic mouse lines. T cell-specific Srf deletion led to a severe block in thymocyte development at the transition from double to single positive stage. The few residual T cells detectable in the periphery retained at least one functional Srf allele, thereby demonstrating the importance of SRF in T cell development. In contrast, deletion of Srf in developing B cells did not interfere with the growth and survival of B cells in general, yet led to a complete loss of marginal zone B cells and a marked reduction of the CD5+ B cell subset. Our study also revealed a contribution of SRF to the expression of the surface molecules IgM, CD19, and the chemokine receptor 4 in B lymphocytes.

Description
Smoothened (SMO)-inhibitors recently entered clinical trials for sonic-hedgehog driven medulloblastoma (SHH-MB). Clinical response appears highly variable. To understand the mechanism(s) of primary resistance and to identify pathways co-operating with aberrant SHH-signaling, we sequenced a large cohort of SHH-MBs across all age groups by sequencing, DNA methylation and expression profiling. Our data show that most adults but only half of the pediatric patients with SHH-MB will respond to SMO inhibition as predicted by molecular analysis of the primary tumor and tested in the SHH-xenografts, demonstrating that the next generation of SMO-inhibitor trials should be based on these predictive biomarkers.

Illumina HiSeq 2000
Description
Purpose: Identifying target genes of the two human chromatin remodeling enzymes CHD3 and CHD4 Methods: see below in protocols Results: Libraries were sequenced on Illumina HiSeq2000 platform resulting in 37-71 Mio 50 bp paired-end reads per sample. We identified 16 (i) and 115 (ii) distinctly regulated genes when CHD3-GFP (i) or CHD4-GFP (ii) were overexpressed. Nine genes seem to be commonly regulated by CHD3 and CHD4. We successfully validated four genes from our RNA-seq via qPCR with two new (independent from those, used for RNA-seq) biological replicates. Conclusion: CHD3 and CHD4 regulate distinct genes. Overall design: Total RNA was prepared from 24 hours induced (1 ng/µl Dox) and non-induced Flp-In™ T-REx™ 293 cells, expressing GFP, hCHD3-GFP (UniProt: Q12873) or hCHD4-GFP(UniProt Q14839). Library preparation and Illumina Sequencing was perfprmed by EMBL GeneCore facility in Heidelberg (Germany: Dr. Vladimir Benes)

Description
Primary glioblastoma, representing over 90% of adult glioblastoma, develop rapidly without preexisting lower-grade glioma. We have generated a mouse model of primary glioblastoma driven by a single p53 mutation. These p53-mutant gliomas lose the syntenic region of human chromosome 10q, which is mapped to mouse chr19 and chr7. Loss of mouse chr19, containing Pten, activates PI3K/Akt signaling.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
We investigated a glomerulonephritis (GN) model in rats induced by nephrotoxic serum (NTS) which contains antibodies against the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). The anti-GBM GN model in rats is widely used since its biochemical and histopathological characteristics are similar to crescentic nephritis and Goodpasture's disease in humans. Male Wistar Kyoto (WKY) and Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were dosed once with 1, 2.5 and 5 ml/kg nephrotoxic serum (NTS) or 1.5 and 5 ml/kg NTS, respectively. GN and tubular damage were observed histopathologically in all treated rats after 14 days.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
TGF-b1-stimulation induces an epithelial dedifferentiation-process, throughout which epithelial cell sheets disintegrate and gradually switch into fibroblastic-appearing cells (EMT-like transition). The purpose of these profiles was to identify differentially expressed genes that are regulated transcriptionally. Standard microarry-based gene expression profiles measure steady-state RNA but do not provide insight into underlying regulatory principles. NIAC-NTR-based gene expression profiling (Kenzelmann et al., PNAS, 2007) essentially enables the dissection of transcriptionally versus non-transcriptionally regulated genes within respective analysed time-frames. Briefly, NIAC-NTR relies on incorporation of 4sU (thio-uridine) into nascent RNA, which can subsequently be specifically isolated by custom-made columns. Total- and enriched (4sU-labeled) are then further processed for microarray gene expression profiling by standard procedures. This dataset complements previously released data of NIAC-NTR-based gene expression profiling of cells treated with TGF-b1 and 4sU for 2hrs [GSE23833].

Description
TGF-b1-stimulation induces an epithelial dedifferentiation-process, throughout which epithelial cell sheets disintegrate and gradually switch into fibroblastic-appearing cells (EMT-like transition). Several transcription factors, some of them being TGF-b1-responsive, are functionally involved in such a switch and affect epithelial differentiation and plasticity.
