Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Array (zebrafish)
Description
It is well-established that neurons in the adult mammalian central nervous system are terminally differentiated and, if injured, will be unable to regenerate their connections. In contrast to mammals, zebrafish and other teleosts display a robust neuroregenerative response. Following optic nerve crush (ONX), retinal ganglion cells (RGC) regrow their axons to synapse with topographically correct targets in the optic tectum, such that vision is restored in ~21 days. What accounts for these differences between teleostean and mammalian responses to neural injury is not fully understood. A time course analysis of global gene expression patterns in the zebrafish eye after optic nerve crush can help to elucidate cellular and molecular mechanisms that contribute to a successful neuroregeneration.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
Protein C (PC) deficiency increases the risk of venous thrombosis (VT) among members of Kindred Vermont II, but fails to fully account for the inheritance pattern. A genome scan of the pedigree supported the presence of a prothrombotic gene on chromosome 11q23 with weaker support on chromosomes 10p12 and 18p11.2-q11.

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
The purpose of the experiment was to generate a time course of gene expression following irradiation. The goal was then to model this data to extract hidden variables - chiefly, the activity profiles of the p53 transcription factor. Using this information the aim was to predict which transcripts changed by IR were targets of p53. Cells in log phase (1 x 106 ml-1) were ?-irradiated with 5 Gy at room temperature (RT) at a dose rate of 2.45 Gy per minute with a 137Cs ?-irradiator. Cells were harvested at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours, and RNA and protein were extracted (Trizol, Invitrogen). Affymetrix U133A arrays were hybridized as standard (www.affymetrix.co.uk). Array quality was determined using R and GCOS .rpt file values. The time course was replicated three times from independent cell preparations.

- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The purpose of this study was to characterize the histologic development of OA in a mouse model where OA is induced by destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM model) and to identify genes regulated during different stages of the disease, using RNA isolated from the joint organ and analyzed using microarrays.427 genes from the microarrays passed consistency and significance filters. There was an initial up-regulation at 2 and 4 weeks of genes involved in morphogenesis, differentiation, and development, including growth factor and matrix genes, as well as transcription factors including Atf2, Creb3l1, and Erg. Most genes were off or down-regulated at 8 weeks with the most highly down-regulated genes involved in cell division and the cytoskeleton. Gene expression increased at 16 weeks, in particular extracellular matrix genes including Prelp, Col3a1 and fibromodulin.The results support a phasic development of OA with early matrix remodelling and transcriptional activity followed by a more quiescent period that is not maintained.

Description
Cystic Fibrosis lung disease progresses by a combination of accelerated airways inflammation and bacterial colonization and infection. Airways inflammation in CF is predominantly neutrophilic and complicates airway clearance therapies through cellular debris, excessive DNA, excessive and viscous mucous, and high concentrations of neutrophils,Il-8 and related cytokines liberated along the NFkB signaling pathway. We conducted a single site, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, proof-of-concept trial in which we evaluated the effects of 28 days of two dose levels (0.05 mg and 0.10 mg daily) of an older cardiac glycoside, digitoxin, as compared with placebo, on inflammatory markers in induced sputum obtained from 24 subjects with mild to moderate CF lung disease. Nasal epithelial cells from 23 subjects were analyzed for microarray analysis. CF patients 18 to 45 years old, any genotype combination, were eligible.

Description
CD27 and CD45RA can be used to split T cells into 4 subsets, nave cells, CD27+CD45RA+, central memory cells CD27+CD45RA-, effector memory cells CD27-CD45RA-, effector memory CD45RA re-expressing cell, CD27-CD45RA+. It is with in this final EMRA subset that it is belived the senenscent T cells reside. Cellular senescence is accompanied by a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), to date a SASP has not been demonstrated in T cells.

Description
Cellular plasticity confers cancer cells the ability to adapt to micro-environmental changes, a fundamental requirement for tumour progression and metastasis. The epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a transcriptional programme associated with increased cell motility and stemness. Beside EMT, the mesenchymal to amoeboid transition (MAT) has been described during tumour progression but, to date, little is known about its transcriptional control and involvement in stemness. The aim of this study is to investigate (i) the transcriptional profile associated with the MAT programme and (ii) to study whether MAT acquisition in melanoma cancer cells correlate with clonogenic potential to promote tumor growth. Our results demonstrate that MAT programme in melanoma is characterised by increased stemness and clonogenic features of cancer cells, thus sustaining tumour progression. Furthermore, these data suggest that stemness is not an exclusive feature of cells undergoing EMT, but more generally is associated with an increase in cellular plasticity of cancer cells.

Description
Controlled hypobaria presents biology with an environment that is never encountered in terrestrial ecology, yet the apparent components of hypobaria are stresses typical of terrestrial ecosystems. High altitude, for example, presents terrestrial hypobaria always with hypoxia as a component stress, since the relative partial pressure of O2 is constant in the atmosphere. Laboratory-controlled hypobaria, however, allows the dissection of pressure effects away from the effects typically associated with altitude, in particular hypoxia, as the partial pressure of O2 can be varied. In this study, whole transcriptomes of plants grown in ambient (97 kPa/pO2 = 21 kPa) atmospheric conditions were compared to those of plants transferred to five different atmospheres of varying pressure and oxygen composition for 24 h: 50 kPa/pO2 = 10 kPa, 25 kPa/pO2 = 5 kPa, 50 kPa/pO2 = 21 kPa, 25 kPa/pO2 = 21 kPa, or 97 kPa/pO2 = 5 kPa. The plants exposed to these environments were 10 day old Arabidopsis seedlings grown vertically on hydrated nutrient plates. In addition, 5 day old plants were also exposed for 24 h to the 50 kPa and ambient environments to evaluate age-dependent responses. The gene expression profiles from roots and shoots showed that the hypobaric response contained more complex gene regulation than simple hypoxia, and that adding back oxygen to normoxic conditions did not completely alleviate gene expression changes in hypobaric responses.
