Description
Mice with the two calcium-stmulated adenylyl cyclase isoforms (AC1 and AC8; DKO mice) knocked-out show conditioned fear memory deficits. We assessed gene expression changes at baseline and several time points after conditioned fear learning to assess transcriptional changes at different stages of learning. Transcriptional changes were assessed in the amydgdala and hippocampus of DKO and wild-type mice.

Description
Background: The muscularis externa (ME) of the adult intestine consists of two layers of visceral smooth muscle (VISM), the inner circular muscle (ICM) and outer longitudinal muscle (OLM), that form sequentially beginning at embryonic day (E) 13 and E15 in the developing mouse. Coordinated contraction of these two layers facilitates the movement of food down the digestive tract. Though abnormal ME function or development has been linked to pseudoobstruction and irritable bowel syndrome, little is known about the molecular character of the smooth muscle that comprises this tissue. We performed transcriptome analysis to identify genes that are enriched in intestinal mesenchyme tissue at E14.5, when the inner circular muscle (ICM) is well established. Results: Expression patterns of enriched mesenchyme genes were examined in publically available in situ databases, revealing over one hundred genes that are expressed in the ICM. Examination of the promoter regions for these genes revealed enrichment for cJUN transcription factor binding sites and cJUN itself was also enriched in ICM. A cJUN ChIP-seq at E14.5 showed that cJUN regulatory regions contained characteristics of muscle enhancers. Overall design: E14.5 mouse intestines were harvested and grown for 24 hours in a transwell culture with or without Cyclopamine treatment. Separated epithelial and mesenchyme tissue populations or whole intestines were submitted for sequencing. Three replicates for each condition were collected.

Description
Antisense long non-coding (aslnc)RNAs represent a substantial part of eukaryotic transcriptomes that are, in yeast, controlled by the Xrn1 exonuclease. Nonsense-Mediated Decay (NMD) destabilizes the Xrn1-sensitive aslncRNAs (XUT), but what determines their sensitivity remains unclear. We report that 3’ single-stranded (3’-ss) extension mediates XUTs degradation by NMD, assisted by the Mtr4 and Dbp2 helicases. Single-gene investigation, genome-wide RNA analyses and double-stranded (ds)RNA mapping revealed that 3''-ss extensions discriminate the NMD-targeted XUTs from stable lncRNAs. Ribosome profiling showed that XUT are translated locking them for NMD activity. Interestingly, mutants of the Mtr4 and Dbp2 helicases accumulated XUTs, suggesting that dsRNA unwinding is a critical step for degradation. Indeed, expression of anti-complementary transcripts protects cryptic intergenic lncRNAs from NMD. Our results indicate that aslncRNAs form dsRNA that are only translated and targeted to NMD if dissociated by Mtr4 and Dbp2. We propose that NMD buffers genome expression by discarding pervasive regulatory transcripts. Overall design: Strand-specific transcriptome analysis of biological replicates (1) of WT and xrn1-delta cells of the S288C, W303 and SK1 (n & 2n) genetic background of S. cerevisiae; (2) of WT, dcp2-7 and upf1-delta cells; (3) of WT, xrn1-delta and dcp2-7 cells upon treatment of total RNA with Terminator 5''-Phosphate-Dependent Exonuclease. This record also contains CAGE-Seq analysis in wild-type and decapping-deficient cells of the budding yeast S. cerevisiae.

Description
The goal of the study was to compare transcriptome changes in HeLa cells after infection with recombinant Thogoto virus (wild-type, ML deletioin mutant or ML SW mutant not able to interact wiith TFIIB. While wild-type virus is able to inhibit inflammatory genes, ML deletion mutant and TFIIB-non-interacting mutant lose this effect on gene transcription. Overall design: Examination of transcriptome changes in HeLa cells under steady state or after THOV infection using Illumina HiSeq.

Description
We have compared the proteome, transcriptome and metabolome of two isogenic cell lines: MCF-10A, derived from human breast epithelium, and the mutant MCF-10A-H1047R. These cell lines differ by a single amino acid substitution (H1047R) caused by single nucleotide change in one allele of the PIK3CA gene which encodes the catalytic subunit p110a of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). The H1047R mutation of PIK3CA is one of the most frequently encountered somatic cancer-specific mutations. In MCF-10A, this mutation induces an extensive cellular reorganization that far exceeds the known signaling activities of PI3K. The changes are highly diverse; with examples in structural protein levels, the DNA repair machinery and sterol synthesis. Gene set enrichment analysis reveals a highly significant concordance of the genes differentially expressed in MCF-10A-H1047R cells and the established protein and RNA signatures of basal breast cancer. No such concordance was found with the specific gene signatures of other histological types of breast cancer. Our data document the power of a single base mutation, inducing an extensive remodeling of the cell toward the phenotype of a specific cancer. Overall design: 2 cell lines (H1047R and WT), 4 time points (0, 6, 12, 24 hours), 3 replicates

Description
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous disease, and despite considerable research efforts, no molecular classification of HCC has been introduced in clinical practice. The existing molecular classification systems were established using resected tumors, which introduces a selection bias towards patients without liver cirrhosis and with early stage HCCs. So far, these classification systems have not been validated in liver biopsy specimens from tumors diagnosed at intermediate and late stages. We generated and analyzed expression profiles from 60 HCC biopsies from an unselected patient population with all tumor stages. Unbiased clustering identified 3 HCC classes. Class membership correlated with survival, tumor size, and with Edmondson and BCLC stage. Most biopsy specimens could be assigned to the classes of published classification systems, demonstrating that gene expression profiles obtained from patients with early stage disease are preserved in all stages of HCC. When a reference set of healthy liver samples was integrated in the analysis, we observed that the differentially regulated genes up- or down-regulated in a given class relative to other classes were actually dysregulated in the same direction in all HCCs, with quantitative rather than qualitative differences between the molecular subclasses. With the exception of a subset of samples with a definitive -catenin gene signature, biological pathway analysis could not identify class specific pathways reflecting the activation of distinct oncogenic programs. Our results suggest that gene expression profiling of HCC biopsies has limited potential to direct therapies that target specific driver pathways, but can identify subgroups of patients with different prognosis.

Description
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be differentiated toward mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), but at least on epigenetic level this transition remains incomplete with the current culture conditions. Hydrogels provide a more physiologic three-dimensional environment for in vitro cell culture than conventional tissue culture plastic (TCP). In this study, we followed the hypothesis that growth and differentiation of primary MSCs and of iPSC-derived MSCs (iMSCs) can be enhanced on hydrogels. To this end, we used a hydrogel made of human platelet lysate (hPL). MSCs were effectively cultured on and inside hPL-gel and demonstrated more structured deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components than TCP. Furthermore, hPL-gel supported differentiation of iPSCs toward MSCs. Unexpectedly, the differentiation process seemed to be hardly affected by the substrate: iMSCs generated either on TCP or hPL-gel did not reveal differences in morphology, immunophenotype, or differentiation potential. Moreover, global gene expression and DNA-methylation profiles were almost identical in iMSCs generated on TCP or hPL-gel. Our results indicate that matrix elasticity is less crucial for directed lineage-specific differentiation toward MSCs than expected.

Description
In a fluorescence polarization screen for MYC-MAX interaction, we have identified a novel small molecule inhibitor of MYC, KJ-Pyr-9, from a Kröhnke pyridine library. The Kd of KJ-Pyr-9 for MYC in vitro is 6.5 ± 1.0 nM as determined by backscattering interferometry; KJ-Pyr-9 also interferes with MYC-MAX complex formation in the cell as shown in a protein fragment complementation assay. KJ-Pyr-9 specifically inhibits MYC-induced oncogenic transformation in cell culture; it has no or only weak effects on the oncogenic activity of several unrelated oncoproteins. KJ-Pyr-9 preferentially interferes with the proliferation of MYC-overexpressing human and avian cells and specifically reduces the MYC-driven transcriptional signature. In vivo, KJ-Pyr-9 effectively blocks the growth of a xenotransplant of MYC-overexpressing human cancer cells. Overall design: 4 treatment groups analyzed in triplicate: no treatment(control), 20uM KJ-Pyr-9, 0.1ug/mL doxycycline and KJ-Pyr-9 in combination with doxycycline
