Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Contractile and highly synthetic myofibroblasts are the key effector cells involved in excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition in multiple fibrotic conditions, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). In order to define the key drivers of the fibrotic response, we used laser capture microdissection to isolate RNA from myofibroblasts within fibroblastic foci and performed microarray analysis in combination with a novel eigengene approach to identify functional clusters of genes which associate with collagen gene expression.
Publication Title
Transcriptome analysis of IPF fibroblastic foci identifies key pathways involved in fibrogenesis.

- Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [probe set (exon) version (huex10st)
Description
The dataset consists of 266 NCCN very low/low or favorable-intermediate risk PCa patients who underwent diagnostic prostate biopsy between 2000 and 2014 and were treated with RP in six community or academic practices: University of Calgary, Cedars-Sinai, Spectrum Health, Cleveland Clinic, MD Anderson Cancer Center and Johns Hopkins. All patients had complete tumor pathology from biopsy and prostatectomy. Low risk PCa was defined as T1c or cT2a, and Gleason score (GS) 6, and PSA < 10ng/ml and favorable-intermediate risk was no greater than predominant GS 3 and percent positive biopsy cores < 50%, and either cT2b-cT2c or PSA 10-20ng/ml.

Illumina HiSeq 2000
Description
Mature messenger RNAs (mRNAs) consist of coding sequence (CDS) and 5’ and 3’ untranslated regions, typically expected to show similar abundance within a given neuron. Examining mRNA from defined neurons we unexpectedly show extremely common unbalanced expression of cognate 3’ UTR and CDS sequences, observing many genes with high UTR relative to CDS, and others with high CDS to UTR. By in situ hybridization 19 of 19 genes examined show a broad range of UTR to CDS expression ratios in different neurons and other tissues. These ratios may be spatially graded or change with developmental age, but are consistent across animals. Further, for two genes examined, a UTR to CDS ratio above a particular threshold in any given neuron correlated with reduced or undetectable protein expression. Our findings raise questions about the role of isolated UTR sequences in regulation of protein expression, and highlight the importance of separately examining UTR and CDS sequences in gene expression analyses. Overall design: dopamine or serotonin neuronal mRNA was purified selectively by using dopamine transporter (DAT) and SLC6A4 (serotonin transporter) BacTrap mice. RNA sequencing was carried out using Illumina HiSeq 2500.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
Muscle tissue was longitudinally characterized histologically for electron transport function by staining 1mm of quadriceps muscle at 70 micron intervals for the activities of two complexes in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, Cytochrome C Oxidase and Succinate Dehydrogenase. Unstained serial cryosections were prepared for Laser Capture Microdissection. Target cells from the serial sections were isolated and pooled for RNA extraction, amplification and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We selected homogeneous populations of muscle fibers for expression profiling based upon the presence/absence of electron transport dysfunction caused by the somatic accumulation of mitochondrial DNA deletion mutations.

Mitochondrial biogenesis drives a vicious cycle of metabolic insufficiency and mitochondrial DNA deletion mutation accumulation in aged rat skeletal muscle fibers.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The thymus constitutes the primary lymphoid organ for the majority of T cells. The phosphatidyl-inositol 3 kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway is involved in lymphoid development. Defects in single components of this pathway prevent thymocytes from progressing beyond early T cell developmental stages. Protein kinase B (PKB) is the main effector of the PI3K pathway. To determine whether PKB mediates PI3K signaling in early T cell development, we characterized PKB knockout thymi. Our results reveal a significant thymic hypocellularity in PKBalpha-/- neonates and an accumulation of early thymocyte subsets in PKBalpha-/- adult mice. The latter finding is specifically attributed to the lack of PKBalpha within the lymphoid component of the thymus. Microarray analyses show that the absence of PKBalpha in early thymocyte subsets modifies the expression of genes known to be involved in pre-TCR signaling, in T cell activation, and in the transduction of interferon-mediated signals. This report highlights the specific requirements of PKBalpha for thymic development.

Description
The tyrosine kinase receptors HER2 and HER3 play an important role in breast cancer. The HER2/HER3 heterodimer is a critical oncogenic unit associated with reduced relapse-free and decreased overall survival. We provide gene expression profile of the mammary epithelial cells MCF10A expressing HER2, HER3 or HER2/HER3 and grown in three-dimensional cultures for 15 days in the presence of heregulin, a known HER3-ligand that stabilizes and activates the HER2/HER3 heterodimer.
