Nocturnal home hemodialysis (NHD) [5 6 times a week, 6-8 hours per session] augments uremia clearance and is associated with an increase in hemoglobin level. We have used microarray to have a global image of the changes at the gene expression.
Nocturnal hemodialysis improves erythropoietin responsiveness and growth of hematopoietic stem cells.

View SamplesTranscriptomic analysis of primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). HUVEC were treated in vitro with CoCl2 to induce hypoxia, high glucose and high glucose plus hypoxia in different intervals (1, 3, 12 hours). Subsequently, the effect of metformin (anti-diabetic drug) on all conditions was studied to take advantage of transcriptomics to prospectively explore the mechanism of this drug to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases in type II diabetic patients.
Reference genes for expression studies in hypoxia and hyperglycemia models in human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

View SamplesExperiment: Expression profiling in breast cancer brain metastases (BC) compared to breast cancers (BC) and primary brain tumors (prBT). The objectives are to identify expression profiles that are specific to BCBM in order to identify new molecular biomarkers. The characterization of the BCBM samples included adjacent genetic techniques.
Comprehensive molecular biomarker identification in breast cancer brain metastases.

View SamplesExperiment: Establishment of expression profiles in a brain metastasis from a PTC (RNA processing and hybridization to Affymetrix microarray done twice to yield a technical replicate), in non-brain metastatic, stage III and IV PTCs, and primary brain tumors. Biostatistics analysis identified genes and biofunctions related to the brain metastatic PTC.
Microarray expression profiling identifies genes, including cytokines, and biofunctions, as diapedesis, associated with a brain metastasis from a papillary thyroid carcinoma.

View SamplesContractile and highly synthetic myofibroblasts are the key effector cells involved in excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition in multiple fibrotic conditions, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). In order to define the key drivers of the fibrotic response, we used laser capture microdissection to isolate RNA from myofibroblasts within fibroblastic foci and performed microarray analysis in combination with a novel eigengene approach to identify functional clusters of genes which associate with collagen gene expression.
Transcriptome analysis of IPF fibroblastic foci identifies key pathways involved in fibrogenesis.

View SamplesMajor depressive disorder is a heterogeneous illness with a mostly uncharacterized pathology. Large scale gene expression (transcriptome) analysis and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for single nucleotide polymorphisms have generated a considerable amount of gene- and disease-related information, but heterogeneity and various sources of noise have limited the discovery of disease mechanisms. As systematic dataset integration is becoming essential, we developed methods and performed meta-clustering of gene coexpression links in 11 transcriptome studies from postmortem brains of human subjects with major depressive disorder (MDD) and non-psychiatric control subjects. We next sought enrichment in the top 50 meta-analyzed coexpression modules for genes otherwise identified by GWAS for various sets of disorders. One coexpression module of 88 genes was consistently and significantly associated with GWAS for MDD, other neuropsychiatric disorders and brain functions, and for medical illnesses with elevated clinical risk of depression, but not for other diseases (See publication for details).
