View SamplesBackground: Colorectal cancers are believed to arise predominantly from adenomas. Although these precancerous lesions have been subjected to extensive clinical, pathological, and molecular analyses, little is currently known about the global gene expression changes accompanying their formation. Results: To characterize the molecular processes underlying the transformation of normal colonic epithelium, we compared the transcriptomes of 32 prospectively collected adenomas with those of normal mucosa from the same individuals. Important differences emerged not only between the expression profiles of normal and adenomatous tissues, but also between those of small and large adenomas. A key feature of the transformation process was the remodeling of the Wnt pathway reflected in patent over- and underexpression of 78 known components of this signaling cascade. Conclusions: Our transcriptomic profiles of normal colonic mucosa and colorectal adenomas shed new light on the early stages of colorectal tumorigenesis.

View SamplesRNAseq analysis was conducted to complement the targeted and untargeted metabolomics analysis of livers overexpressing the CoA-degrading enzyme Nudt7 or GFP (control). Lipid metabolism requires coenzyme A (CoA), which is found in multiple subcellular compartments including the peroxisomes. In the liver, CoA levels are dynamically adjusted between the fed and fasted states. The elevation in CoA levels that occurs during fasting is driven by increased synthesis but also correlates with decreased expression of Nudt7, the major CoA-degrading enzyme in the liver. Nudt7 resides in the peroxisomes and we overexpressed this enzyme in mouse livers to determine its effect on the size and composition of the hepatic CoA pool in the fed and fasted states. Nudt7 overexpression did not change total CoA levels but decreased the concentration of short-chain acyl-CoAs and choloyl-CoA in fasted livers, when endogenous Nudt7 activity was lowest. The effect on these acyl-CoAs correlated with a significant decrease in the hepatic bile acid content and in the rate of peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation, as estimated by targeted and untargeted metabolomics, combined with the measurement of fatty acid oxidation in intact hepatocytes. Identification of the CoA species and metabolic pathways affected the overexpression on Nudt7 in vivo supports the conclusion that the nutritionally-driven modulation of Nudt7 activity could contribute to the regulation of the peroxisomal CoA pool and peroxisomal lipid metabolism. Overall design: Liver mRNA profiles of 4 mice injected with adeno-associated virus to overexpress Nudt7 and 4 mice injected with adeno-associated virus to overexpress GFP (control) were generated by RNAseq using Illumina HiSeq1500

View SamplesLacciac Acid A was indentified as an inhibitor of DMNT1. MCF-7 cells were treated with Lacciac Acid A (200 uM) for 5 days. Changes in gene expression were identified by using Affymetrix Human gene ST1.0 arrays. We used microarrays to determine global changes in gene expression upon treatment with Lacciac Acid A an inhibitor of DMNT1.
Laccaic acid A is a direct, DNA-competitive inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase 1.

View SamplesTo characterize the sequence of events associated with RasV12 immortalization of Drosophila embryonic cells, we generated transcriptional time series during cell line establishment, from primary cultures until passage (P) 19. Overall design: We generated three transcriptional time series from three cell lines (R1, R4 and R5) by sampling the cultures at successive stages, early (P2-4), intermediate (P4-11), and late (P16-19), characterized by different passage times. Time points for the R1 time-series were: P2, P3, P4, P5, P7, P8, P10, P11, P16, P17 and P19; for the R4 time-series: P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, P7, P9, P11, P12, P16, P17 and P19; and for the R5 time-series: P2, P3, P4, P6, P7, P8, P16, P17 and P19
