Affymetrix Rhesus Macaque Genome Array (rhesus)
Description
Genome-wide transcriptional profiling allows characterization of the molecular underpinnings of neocortical organization, including cortical areal specialization, laminar cell type diversity and functional anatomy. Microarray analysis of individual cortical layers across sensorimotor and association cortices in rhesus macaque demonstrated robust and specific laminar and areal molecular signatures driven by differential expression of genes associated with specialized neuronal function. Gene expression corresponding with laminar architecture was generally similar across cortical areas, although genes with robust areal patterning were often highly laminar as well, and these patterns were more highly conserved between macaque and human as compared to mouse. Layer 4 of primate primary visual cortex displayed a distinct molecular signature compared to other cortical regions, a specialization not observed in mouse. Overall, transcriptome-based relationships were strongest between proximal layers in a cortical area, and between neighboring areas along the rostrocaudal axis, reflecting in vivo cortical spatial topography and therefore a developmental imprint.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Foxo1 is required for proper developmental progression due to distinct functions at different stages of B cell development, but specific gene targets in pro-B cells are not identified. We performed a microarray analysis in v-Abl transformed pro-B cells to compare the gene expression pattern between wildtype and Foxo1 knockout cells.

Description
Growth factor independence genes (Gfi1 and Gfi1b) repress recombination activating genes (Rag) transcription in developing B lymphocytes. Because all blood lineages originate from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and different lineage progenitors have been shown to share transcription factor networks prior to cell fate commitment, we hypothesized that GFI family proteins may also play a role in repressing Rag transcription or a global lymphoid transcriptional program in other blood lineages. We tested the level of Rag transcription in various blood cells when Gfi1 and Gfi1b were deleted, and observed an upregulation of Rag expression in plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). Using microarray analysis, we observed that Gfi1 and Gfi1b regulate a broad spectrum of cellular processes in pDCs, but not a lymphoid specific transcriptional program. This study establishes a role for Gfi1 and Gfi1b in Rag regulation in a non-B lineage cell type

Description
We have conducted a screen for factors that downregulate expression of the genes encoding the V(D)J recombinase (RAG1 and RAG2) during B cell development. We have identified the transcription factor Gfi1B as being one of the proteins capable of decreasing RAG transcription when overexpressed in Ableson transormed ProB cell lines. We have yet to determine whether the overexpression of Gfi1B downregulates the RAGs directly, or whether it initiates a signalling programme that results in RAG downregulation. We hypothesize that by comparing global gene expression patterns in cells that overexpress Gfi1B and those that do not, we can distinguish between these possibilities and additionally gain insight into the broader genetic program that may be influenced by Gfi1B during hematopoiesis.

Description
Six DD class GABAergic neurons are generated in the embryo to synapse with ventral muscles and receive input from cholinergic neurons in the dorsal nerve cord. After hatching and toward the end of the first larval (L1) stage, DD neurons reverse polarity (i.e., synapse with dorsal muscles, receive ventral cholinergic inputs). Expression profiles were generated from DD neurons in the early L1 stage before the initiation of the remodeling program.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (D2) are two of the most commonly used inbred mouse strains in neuroscience research. However, the only currently available mouse genome is based entirely on the B6 strain sequence. Subsequently, oligonucleotide microarray probes are based solely on this B6 reference sequence, making their application for gene expression profiling comparisons across mouse strains dubious due to their allelic sequence differences, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The emergence of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and the RNA-Seq application provides a clear alternative to oligonucleotide arrays for detecting differential gene expression without the problems inherent to hybridization-based technologies. Using RNA-Seq, an average of 22 million short sequencing reads were generated per sample for 21 samples (10 B6 and 11 D2), and these reads were aligned to the mouse reference genome, allowing 16,183 Ensembl genes to be queried in striatum for both strains. To determine differential expression, 'digital mRNA counting' is applied based on reads that map to exons. The current study compares RNA-Seq (Illumina GA IIx) with two microarray platforms (Illumina MouseRef-8 v2.0 and Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0) to detect differential striatal gene expression between the B6 and D2 inbred mouse strains. We show that by using stringent data processing requirements differential expression as determined by RNA-Seq is concordant with both the Affymetrix and Illumina platforms in more instances than it is concordant with only a single platform, and that instances of discordance with respect to direction of fold change were rare. Finally, we show that additional information is gained from RNA-Seq compared to hybridization-based techniques as RNA-Seq detects more genes than either microarray platform. The majority of genes differentially expressed in RNA-Seq were only detected as present in RNA-Seq, which is important for studies with smaller effect sizes where the sensitivity of hybridization-based techniques could bias interpretation.

C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (D2) are two of the most commonly used inbred mouse strains in neuroscience research. However, the only currently available mouse genome is based entirely on the B6 strain sequence (NCBI m37, April 2007). Subsequently, oligonucleotide microarray probes are based solely on this B6 reference sequence, making their application for gene expression profiling comparisons across mouse strains dubious due to their allelic sequence differences, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The emergence of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and the RNA-Seq application provides a clear alternative to oligonucleotide arrays for detecting differential gene expression without the problems inherent to hybridization-based technologies.

The large dynamic range of RNA-Seq detects thousands more genes than were observed with microarray analyses. This additional information gained by using this technology illustrates the value of RNA-Seq.
