Affymetrix Yeast Genome S98 Array (ygs98)
Description
Using microarrays to genotype the parental origin of progeny resulting from a cross between S96 and YJM789 yeast strains, we mapped the distribution of crossovers that occurred during meiosis. Knowledge of the crossover distribution allowed us to assess changes in crossover control in wild type and mutant strains.
Publication Title

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.1 ST Array (mogene21st)
Description
Cells release nano-sized membrane vesicles that are involved in intercellular communication by transferring biological information between cells. It is generally accepted that cells release at least three types of these extracellular vesicles (EVs): apoptotic bodies, microvesicles and exosomes. Whilst exosomes are assumed to be a homogenous population of EVs, they have a wide range of putative functions. Therefore, we hypothesized that cells release subpopulations of exosomes with distinct molecular compositions and functional properties. Exosomes were isolated from conditioned medium by differential ultracentrifugation. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation of the resulting exosome pellet revealed the presence of two distinct subpopulations, one smaller, slow migrating population (HD-Exo), and one fast migrating, larger population (LD-Exo).

- Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST Array (ragene10st)
Description
In this study, we analyzed the effects of chronic alcohol consumption on liver repair and regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PHx). Rats were fed a liquid diet containing 36% of total calories derived from ethanol for 5 weeks; corresponding pair-fed calorie-matched controls were fed diets in which ethanol calories were replaced either by carbohydrate or by fat. After 5 weeks, rats were subjected to 70% PHx and liver samples were collected at 1, 6 and 24h after the surgery. The excised liver samples at t=0 served as within-animal controls. We used Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST arrays to obtain global gene expression data from each liver sample (n=4 replicate rats, 72 arrays total).

Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Alcoholism is associated with breast cancer incidence and progression, and moderate chronic consumption of ethanol is a risk factor. The mechanisms involved in alcohol's oncogenic effects are unknown, but it has been speculated that they may be mediated by acetaldehyde. Here, we use the immortalized normal human epithelial breast cell line MCF-12A to determine whether short- or long-term exposure to ethanol or to acetaldehyde, using in vivo compatible ethanol concentrations, induces their oncogenic transformation and/or the acquisition of epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). Cultures of MCF-12A cells were incubated with 25 mM ethanol or 2.5 mM acetaldehyde for 1 week, or with lower concentrations (1.0-2.5 mM for ethanol, 1.0 mM for acetaldehyde) for 4 weeks. In the 4 wk incubation, cells were also tested for anchorage independence, including isolation of soft agar selected cells (SASC) from the 2.5 mM ethanol incubations. Cells were analyzed by immuno-cytofluorescence, flow cytometry, western blotting, DNA microarrays, RT/PCR, and assays for miRs. We found that short-term exposure to ethanol, but not, in general, to acetaldehyde, was associated with transcriptional upregulation of the metallothionein family genes, alcohol metabolism genes, and genes suggesting the initiation of EMT, but without related phenotypic changes. Long-term exposure to the lower concentrations of ethanol or acetaldehyde induced frank EMT changes in the monolayer cultures and in SASC as demonstrated by changes in cellular phenotype and mRNA expression. This suggests that low concentrations of ethanol, with little or no mediation by acetaldehyde, induce EMT and some traits of oncogenic transformation such as anchorage independence in normal breast epithelial cells.

- Affymetrix Rat Gene 2.0 ST Array (ragene20st)
Description
In this study, we analyzed the role of miR-21 in liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PHx) in chronic ethanol-treated rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a liquid diet containing 36% of total calories derived from ethanol for 5 weeks; corresponding pair-fed calorie-matched controls were fed diets in which ethanol calories were replaced by carbohydrate. After 5 weeks, locked nucleic acid (LNA)-modified oligo antisense to miR-21 (AM21, Exiqon, Vedbaek, Denmark) was used to inhibit miRNA in vivo, and rats were subjected to 70% PHx. Liver samples were collected at 24h after the surgery. The excised liver samples at t=0 served as within-animal controls. Rat Gene 2.0 ST (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) arrayswere used to obtain global gene expression data from pooled liver samples (pools of 3 or 4 biological replicates/array, total 8 arrays).

Illumina HiSeq 2000
Description
We examined the transcriptional changes modulated by KDM1A inhibitor NCD-38 by performing global transcriptome analysis. Glioma Stem Cells (GSC10) were treated with either vehicle or NCD-38 for 24 h and the isolated RNA was utilized for RNA-seq analysis. Our results demonstrated that NCD-38 modulated several genes that are involved in unfolded protein response, endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway and NRF-2 mediated oxidative stress response. Overall design: Total RNA was isolated from the GSC10 cells that were treated with vehicle or NCD-38 for 24 hours. Illumina TruSeq RNA Sample Preparation was performed following manufacturer''s protocol. Samples were run on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 in duplicate. The combined raw reads were aligned to UCSC hg19 and genes were annotated by Tophat. Genes were annotated and quantified by HTSeq-DESeq pipeline.

Description
Inbred congenic strain B6.C6.132.54/Vad was created using C57BL/6ByJ background and BALB/cJ donor strains. Flanking background markers at chr. 6: 75.9 Mb (rs4226008, NCBI Mouse Build 36 / dbSNP Build 126) and 122.3 Mb (rs3023093), and limiting donor markers at 81.9 Mb (rs4226024) and at 91.8 Mb (rs3712161) defined the introgressed region. We concluded the segment size must be between 9.9 Mb and 46.4 Mb. In a Quantitative Trait Gene identification study we compared brain (without cerebellum) gene expression between progenitors and congenics. Such comparisons can facilitate identification of cis-regulated genes and to establish genetic control of a complex phenotype whose expression is associated with the introgressed chromosome segment.
