Description
Polyethylene glycol sorbitan monoacylates (Tween) are detergents of widespread use in plant sciences. We show them, notably Tween 20, to cause a rapid and complex change in transcript abundance which bears all characteristics of a PAMP / elicitor-induced defense response, and they do so at concentrations which cause no detectable deleterious effects on plant cellular integrity. The activity does not reside in the intact Tween molecule itself, but is caused by medium-chain fatty acids, notably lauric acid (LA), which are efficiently released from the Tween-backbone by the plant. The Tween / LA-response is independent of the jasmonate signalling system. Medium-chain fatty acids are thus novel elicitors/regulators of plant pathogen defense. The results also have several practical implications: (i) The use of Tweens and, as we show, several other detergents, as solvating/wetting agents on intact plants causes profound physiological changes which may mask actual effects of test compounds; (ii) Tweens by themselves can be regarded (and probably used) as economical, non-toxic, and safe-to-apply elicitors of inducible plant immunity against pathogens.

Description
PKA activation by FSH is essential to transduce FSH-mediated effects on granulosa cell proliferation, differentiation and steroidogenesis. However, It is unknown whether activation of PKA is sufficient to account for the entire program of granulosa cell responses to FSH. We addressed this question by conducting a comprehensive comparative analysis of signaling pathways and gene expression profiles of granulosa cells stimulated with FSH or expressing a constitutively active PKA mutant, PKA-CQR.

Description
The human nuclear poly(A)-binding protein PABPN1 has been implicated in the decay of nuclear noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). In addition, PABPN1 stimulates hyperadenylation by poly(A) polymerase, and this activity is thought to be required for decay. Here, we inactivated hyperadenylation by two distinct mechanisms and examined changes in gene expression in HEK293 cells by RNAseq. We observed the upregulation of various ncRNAs, including snoRNA host genes, primary miRNA transcripts, and upstream antisense RNAs, confirming that hyperadenylation is broadly required for the degradation of PABPN1-targets. In addition, we found that mRNAs with retained introns are susceptible to PABPN1 and PAPa/?-mediated decay (PPD). Transcripts are targeted for degradation due to inefficient export, which is a consequence of reduced intron number or incomplete splicing. We conclude that PPD is an important mammalian nuclear RNA decay pathway for the removal of poorly spliced and nuclear-retained transcripts. Overall design: Poly(A)+ RNA from HEK293 cells was analyzed by next generation sequencing following depletion of PAPa and PAP? or expression of a dominant negative allele of PABPN1 (LALA) designed to inhibit polyadenylation. For each condition, we collected both total RNA and a nuclear-enriched sample. Each sample was collected in duplicate.

Description
Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynecologic malignancies, and patients with high grade disease, especially serous papillary subtype (SPEC) are often related to the poor outcomes. Recent genome-wide analyses have revealed that SPEC exhibits gene expression profiles that are distinct from the endometrioid histologic subtype; therefore, it is important to identify the SPEC driver genes or pathways responsible for the inherently aggressive phenotypes and to develop SPEC-specific therapies to target these driver genes or pathways.

Description
Cerebral malaria (CM) can be a fatal manifestation of Plasmodium falciparum infection. We examined global gene expression patterns by microarray during fatal murine CM (FMCM) and non-cerebral malaria (NCM). There was differential expression of a number of genes, including some not yet characterized in the pathogenesis of FMCM. Some gene induction was observed during Plasmodium infection regardless of the development of CM and there was a predominance of genes linked to IFN responses, even in NCM. However, upon real-time PCR validation and quantitation, these genes were much more highly expressed in FMCM than in NCM. The observed changes included genes belonging to pathways such as interferon (IFN) signaling, MHC processing and presentation, apoptosis, immunomodulatory and anti-microbial processes. We further characterized differentially expressed genes by examining the cellular source of their expression as well as their temporal expression patterns during the course of malaria infection. These data identify a number of novel genes that represent interesting candidates for further investigation in FMCM.

Description
The RING domain protein Arkadia/RNF111 is a ubiquitin ligase in the transforming growth factor beta (TGFß) pathway. We previously identified Arkadia as a small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-binding protein with clustered SUMO-interacting motifs (SIMs) that together form a SUMO-binding domain (SBD). However, precisely how SUMO interaction contributes to the function of Arkadia was not resolved. Through analytical molecular and cell biology, we found that the SIMs share redundant function with Arkadia''s M domain, a region distinguishing Arkadia from its paralogs ARKL1/ARKL2 and the prototypical SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL) RNF4. The SIMs and M domain together promote both Arkadia''s colocalization with CBX4/Pc2, a component of Polycomb bodies, and the activation of a TGFbeta pathway transcription reporter. Transcriptome profiling through RNA sequencing showed that Arkadia can both promote and inhibit gene expression, indicating that Arkadia''s activity in transcriptional control may depend on the epigenetic context, defined by Polycomb repressive complexes and DNA methylation [Sun, Liu, and Hunter (2014) Mol Cell Biol 34(16):2981-2995]. Overall design: To determine the role of Arkadia in TGFß signaling at the transcriptome level, the profiles of TGFß-stimulated gene expression were examined in Ark+/+ (Ark_WT), Ark-/- (Ark_null), and Arkadia (WT and sim mutant)-reconstituted Ark-/- MEFs. RNA sequencing was carried out using poly(A)-enriched RNA samples from unstimulated cells and cells treated with TGFß for 1h, 4h, or 16h as indicated. Two batches of sequencing data for a total of 16 independent samples were submitted.
