Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
This sudy focuses on the identification of transcripts in the shoot phloem of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Transcripts expressed in the phloem tissue (parenchyma cell, companion cell, sieve element) were excised by laser microdissection pressure catapulting (LMPC). These were compared with transcripts isolated from leaf phloem exudates by EDTA-chelation technique. Optimization of sample harvest resulted in RNA of high quality from both sources. Modifications of the RNA amplification procedure obtained RNA of sufficient yield and quality for microarray experiments. Microarrays (Affymetrix, ATH1) hybridized with RNA derived from phloem tissue by LMPC or phloem sap allowed us to differentiate between phloem located and mobile transcript species. The datasets provide a search criterion for phloem-based signals and will facilitate reverse genetic studies and forward genetic screens for phloem and long distance RNA signaling mutants.

Description
While recent clinical studies demonstrate the promise of cancer immunotherapy, a barrier for broadening the clinical benefit is identifying how tumors locally suppress cytotoxic immunity. As an emerging mode of intercellular communication, exosomes secreted by malignant cells can deliver a complex payload of coding and non-coding RNA to cells within the tumor microenvironment. Here, we quantified the RNA payload within tumor-derived exosomes and the resulting dynamic transcriptomic response to cytotoxic T cells upon exosome delivery to better understand how tumor-derived exosomes can alter immune cell function. Exosomes derived from B16F0 melanoma cells were enriched for a subset of coding and non-coding RNAs that did not reflect the abundance in the parental cell. Upon exosome delivery, RNAseq revealed the dynamic changes in the transcriptome of CTLL2 cytotoxic T cells. In analyzing transiently co-expressed gene clusters, pathway enrichment suggested that the B16F0 exosomal payload altered mitochondrial respiration, which was confirmed independently, and upregulated genes associated with the Notch signaling pathway. Interestingly, exosomal miRNA appeared to have no systematic effect on downregulating target mRNA levels. Overall design: CTLL2 cells were grown in complete media for 24 hrs, and then stimulated with fresh B16F0 exosomes resuspended in PBS, to a final exosome concentration of 0.2 mg/ml. The transcriptome of untreated CTLL2 cells was assayed at 0, 0.5, 2, 4, and 8 hours after cells were placed in fresh media. There are 4 biological replicates at the 0 hour time point and 3 biological replicates at the 0.5, 2, 4, and 8 hour time points. The transcriptome of CTLL2 cells treated with B16F0 exosomes was assayed at 0.5, 2, 4, and 8 hours after addition of fresh media containing B16F0 exosomes. There were 3 biological replicates performed at each time point.

Description
Cancer-associated skeletal muscle fatigue is a common problem in clinical oncology that is often associated with cancer cachexia, but is not exclusively observed in cachectic patients. The majority of breast cancer (BC) patients report muscle fatigue despite cachexia being relatively rare in this patient population. The clinically relevant phenotype of muscle fatigue in the absence of frank cachexia has no established model system and no approved therapeutic agents. Here, we utilize a breast cancer patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (BC-PDOX) model to recapitulate the human phenotype of tumor-induced muscle fatigue without muscle wasting, and utilized RNA-sequencing to identify pathways contributing to this clinically common phenomenon.

Description
Our group has proposed that low-density granulocytes (LDGs) play an important role in lupus pathogenesis, as they can damage endothelial cells and synthesize increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines and type I interferons. LDGs have a heightened capacity to synthesize neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). NETs from LDGs display increased levels of bactericidal and immunostimulatory proteins, such as the cathelicidin LL37 and externalize double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Lupus netting LDGs have increased capacity to kill endothelial cells and expose IL-17. Through NETosis, lupus neutrophils stimulate plasmacytoid DCs to synthesize IFN-. Our results further expand the potential pathogenic role of aberrant lupus neutrophils through a NET-mediated effect.

Description
Resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy is a clinical challenge in the treatment of ovarian cancer (OC) and limits survival. Therefore, innovative drugs against platinum-resistance are urgently needed. Our therapeutic concept is based on the conjugation of two chemotherapeutic compounds to a monotherapeutic pro-drug, which is taken up by cancer cells and cleaved into active cytostatic metabolites. Here, we explore the activity of the duplex-prodrug 5-FdU-ECyd, covalently linking 2''-deoxy-5-fluorouridine (5-FdU) and 3''-C-ethynylcytidine (ECyd), on platinum-resistant OC cells. RNA-Sequencing was used for characterization of 5-FdU-ECyd treated platinum-sensitive A2780 and isogenic platinum-resistant A2780cis. Overall design: Platinum-sensitive A2780 and platinum resistant-cells A2780cis were treated with 5-FdU-Ecyd for 6h and 12h, there are also 6h and 12h untreated controls, all groups are in triplicates
