MLLT10, a 24 exons gene at 10p12, is known in leukemogenesis as partner of MLL or PICALM and recently NAP1L1. We identified HNRNPH1 and DDX3X, genes involved in RNA processing, as new MLLT10 partners in 2 cases of pediatric NOTCH1 positive T-ALL. HNRNPH1/5q35 encodes for a member of the ubiquitously expressed heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) subfamily of RNA binding protein. DDX3X/Xp11.3, belongs to the big family of RNA helicases with a DEAD box domain.

View SamplesWe have utilized the RNA-Seq technology to identify genes with distinct expression patterns between failing and non-failing hearts. In an era of next-generation sequencing studies, our study demonstrates how knowledge gained from a small set of samples with accurately measured gene expressions using RNA-Seq can be leveraged as a complementary strategy to discern the genetics of complex disorders.

View SamplesIntroduction: Sepsis is a complex immunological response to infection characterized by early hyperinflammation followed by severe and protracted immunosuppression, suggesting that a multi-marker approach has the greatest clinical utility for early detection, within a clinical environment focused on SIRS differentiation. Pre-clinical research using an equine sepsis model identified a panel of gene expression biomarkers that define the early aberrant immune activation. Thus, the primary objective was to apply these gene expression biomarkers to distinguish patients with sepsis from those who had undergone major open surgery and had clinical outcomes consistent with systemic inflammation due to physical trauma and wound healing.
Development and validation of a novel molecular biomarker diagnostic test for the early detection of sepsis.

View SamplesAngiogenesis is essential for tissue development, wound healing and tissue perfusion, with its dysregulation linked-to tumorigenesis, rheumatoid arthritis and heart disease. Here we show pro-angiogenic stimuli couple to NADPH oxidase-dependent generation of oxidants that catalyse an activating intermolecular-disulphide between regulatory-RI subunits of protein kinase A (PKA), which stimulates PKA-dependent ERK signalling. This is crucial to blood vessel growth as 'redox-dead' Cys17Ser RI knock-in mice fully resistant to PKA disulphide-activation have deficient angiogenesis in models of hind limb ischaemia and tumour-implant growth. Disulphide-activation of PKA represents a new therapeutic target in diseases with aberrant angiogenesis.

View SamplesMyeloid Angiogenic Cells (MACs) were infected with the intracellular, bacterial pathogen Bartonella henselae (B.h.). Infected cells were seeded onto Matrigel coated plates. While uninfected cells showed no phenotypic changes and died over time, infected cells showed strong phenotypic changes and developed into complex 2D chord networks over the course of long term culture (eg 49d). To examine the changes in gene expression associated with the development of the B.h.dependent chord formation phenotype, RNA was isolated from MACs shortly after isolation (d4) and from cells of the chord structures (+B.h. Matrigel). As primary endothelial cells are also know to form chord networks when cultured on Matrigel, a sample of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) cultured on Matrigel for 12hr was also included in the analysis as a control.

View SamplesN6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant modification on mRNA, and is implicated in critical roles in development, physiology and disease. A major challenge in the field has been the inability to quantify m6A stoichiometry and the lack of antibody-independent methodologies for interrogating m6A. Here, we develop MASTER-seq for systematic quantitative profiling of m6A at single nucleotide resolution, building on differential cleavage by an RNAse at methylated sites. MASTER-seq permitted validation and de novo discovery of m6A sites, calibration of the performance of antibody based approaches, and quantitative tracking of m6A dynamics in yeast gametogenesis and mammalian differentiation. We discover that m6A stoichiometry is 'hard-coded' in cis via a simple and predictable code. This code accounts for ~50% of the variability in methylation levels and allows accurate prediction of m6A loss/acquisition events across evolution. MASTER-seq will allow quantitative investigation of m6A regulation in diverse cell types and disease states. Overall design: 10 samples were analyzed: EBS WT and Metll3 -/- with two replicates each and ESC WT and Mettld -/- with three replicates
