Description
The comparison of trancriptomes was part of the study by Pfender, Kuznetsov, Pasternak et al, titled: "Live imaging RNAi screen reveals genes essential for meiosis in mammalian oocytes". The goal was to check if the oocytes cultured in vitro in follicles (for RNAi studies) correspond to real gametes obtained directly from mice (in vivo). Apart from functional experiments showing that they can be fertilized and develop into an embryo, we also compared transcriptomes of those oocytes. Overall design: 3 samples of 50 oocytes were collected for both groups of in vitro and in vivo grown oocytes.

Description
The study entails novel bio-marker discovery of Tumor Aggressive Grade signature (TAGs) genes and their role in recurrence free survival of breast cancer (BC) patients. Current BC dataset was used for co-expression analysis of TAGs genes and their role in BC progression. Additionally, recent findings have suggested an importance of structural organization of sense-antisense gene pairs (SAGPs) for transcription, post-transcriptional and post-translational events and their associations with cancer and disease. We studied SAGPs in which both gene partners are protein encoding genes (coding-coding SAGPs), their role in human BC development and demonstrated their potential for BC stratification and prognosis. Based on gene expression and correlation analyses we identified the robust set of breast cancer-relevant SAGPs (BCR-SAGPs). We isolated and characterized the sense-antisense gene signature (SAGS) and evaluated its prognostic potential in various gene expression datasets comprising 1161 BC patients. The methods used included the Cox proportional survival analysis, statistical analysis of clinicopathologic parameters and differential gene expression. The SAGS was effective in identification of BC patients with the most aggressive disease. Independently, we validated the SAGS using 58 RNA samples of breast cancer tumors purchased from OriGene Technologies (Rockville, MD).

Description
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are essential steroid hormones that regulate the immune system. GCs have been widely used to treat various inflammation disorders and auto-immune diseases, due to their potent immune repression properties. Overall design: HeLa cells were cultured with DMEM plus 10% charcoal-stripped FBS. HeLa cells were treated in the presence of 100 nM triamcinolone acetonide (TA) for 4 hours. Cells were then collected for RNA-seq.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are essential steroid hormones that regulate the immune system. GCs have been widely used to treat various inflammation disorders and auto-immune diseases, due to their potent immune repression properties. Overall design: Monocytes from healthy donors were cultured in the presence of 100 nM triamcinolone acetonide (TA), 100 nM Dexamethasone (Dex) or 100 nM Prednisolone (Pred) for 4 hours. Cells were then collected for RNA-seq.

Description
Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is an inherited multi-system disorder, characterized by oral leukoplakia, nail dystrophy, and abnormal skin pigmentation, as well as high rates of bone marrow failure, solid tumors, and other medical problems such as osteopenia. DC and telomere biology disorders (collectively referred to as TBD here) are caused by germline mutations in telomere biology genes leading to very short telomeres and limited proliferative potential of hematopoietic stem cells. We found that skeletal stem cells (SSCs) within the bone marrow stromal cell population (BMSCs, also known as bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells), may contribute to the hematological phenotype.

Description
Rationale - Regulatory T (Treg) cells suppress immune responses and have been shown to attenuate atherosclerosis. The Treg cell lineage specification factor FOXP3 is essential for Treg cells' ability to uphold immunological tolerance. In humans, FOXP3 exists in several different isoforms, however, their specific role is poorly understood. Objective - To define the regulation and functions of the two major FOXP3 isoforms, FOXP3fl and FOXP3?2, as well as to establish whether their expression is associated with ischemic atherosclerotic disease. Methods and Results - Human primary T-cells were transduced with lentiviruses encoding distinct FOXP3 isoforms. The phenotype and function of these cells were analyzed by flow cytometry, in vitro suppression assays and RNA-sequencing. We also assessed the effect of activation on Treg cells isolated from healthy volunteers. Treg cell activation resulted in increased FOXP3 expression that predominantly was made up of FOXP3?2. FOXP3?2 induced specific transcription of GARP, which functions by tethering the immunosuppressive cytokine TGF-ß to the cell membrane of activated Treg cells. RT-PCR was used to determine the impact of alternative splicing of FOXP3 in relation with atherosclerotic plaque stability in a cohort of over 150 patients that underwent carotid endarterectomy. Plaque instability was associated with a lower FOXP3?2 transcript usage, when comparing plaques from patients without symptoms and patients with occurrence of recent (<1 month) vascular symptoms including minor stoke, transient ischemic attack or amaurosis fugax. No difference was detected in total levels of FOXP3 mRNA between these two groups. Conclusions - These results suggest that activated Treg cells suppress the atherosclerotic disease process and that FOXP3?2 controls a transcriptional program that acts protectively in human atherosclerotic plaques. Overall design: In this experiment we have analyzed 3 groups of each 3 biological repliactes equalling 9 samples in total.

Description
In MLL-rearranged (MLLr) leukemias the N terminal part of the MLL gene can be fused to over 60 different partner genes. Here, we investigate the genome wide binding of the MLL-AF9 and MLL-AF4 fusion proteins and their epigenetic signatures in order to define a core set of MLLr targets. We uncover both common as well as specific MLL-AF9 and MLL-AF4 target genes, which are all marked by H3K79me2, H3K27ac, and H3K4me3. Apart from promoter binding, we also identify MLL-AF9 and MLL-AF4 binding at specific subsets of non overlapping active distal regulatory elements. Despite this differential enhancer binding MLL-AF9 and MLL-AF4 still share a common gene program, which represents part of the RUNX1 gene program and constitutes of CD34+ and monocyte specific genes. Comparing these datasets revealed several zinc finger transcription factors as potential MLL-AF9 co-regulators. Together these results suggest that MLL-fusions collaborate with specific subsets of TFs to aberrantly regulate the RUNX1 gene program in 11q23 AMLs. Overall design: Genome-wide (ChIP-seq) binding of MLL, AF9, AF4, H3K4me3, H3K27ac, H3K79me2 and RUNX1 in THP-1 and MV4-11 AML cell lines. Expression Profiling (RNA-seq) of THP-1 and MV4-11 cell lines, as well as 5 MLL-AF9 positive patient blasts.
