Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
This study characterizes the inflammatory processes in left-sided colitis, pancolitis, and UC-associated dysplasia at the transcriptional level in colonics biopsies in order to identify potential biomarkers and transcripts of importance for the carcinogenic behaviour of chronic inflammation
Publication Title

Description
The epithelial expression of the insulin receptor in the colon is previously reported to correlate with the extent of colonic inflammation. Here, we investigated the effect of inactivating the epithelial insulin receptor in the intestinal tract, in an experimental model of inflammation-induced colorectal cancer. We report increased susceptibility to chemically-induced colitis together with potentiated colonic tumorigenesis in the knockout mice. Furthermore, we show that topically administered insulin in inflamed colons of wildtype mice reduces inflammation-induced weight loss and improves remission in a dose-dependent manner. Mice receiving rectal insulin enemas exhibited lower colitis endoscopic scores and developed significantly fewer and smaller tumors compared with the control group receiving phosphate-buffered saline only. Rectal insulin therapy can potentially be a novel treatment targeting the epithelial layer to enhance mucosal healing in the ulcerated areas. Our findings open up new possibilities for combination treatments to synergize with the existing anti-inflammatory therapies.

- Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [transcript (gene) version (huex10st)
Description
Tumor-associated blood vessels differ from normal vessels at the morphological and molecular level. Proteins that are only present on tumor vessels may serve as biomarkers and as therapeutic targets for inhibition of angiogenesis in cancer. Comparing the transcriptional profiles of blood vascular endothelium from human invasive bladder cancer and from normal bladder tissue, we found several markers that could serve as novel biomarkers or therapeutic targets.
Publication Title
Endocan is upregulated on tumor vessels in invasive bladder cancer where it mediates VEGF-A-induced angiogenesis.

Description
LncRNA H19X was silienced in dermal fibroblats of systemic sclerosis patients with antisense oligonuclotides. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that H19X is an important factor in the development of TGFb-driven fibrosis. Results provide important information about the role H19X in fibroblasts in particolar on extracellular matrix production and cell cycle regulation.
