In order to establish a list of candidate direct COUP-TFI gene targets in the inner ear, we analyzed the differential gene expression profiles of the wild-type and the COUP-TFI/ P0 inner ears.

View SamplesSkeletal muscle adapts to resistance exercise (RE) performance acutely and chronically. An important regulatory step of muscle adaptation to RE is gene expression. Microarray analysis can be used as an exploratory method to investigate how genes and gene clusters are modulated acutely and chronically by RE. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of training status in the basal (rested) and pre- to 24h post-RE on the global transcriptome in vastus lateralis muscle biopsies of young men. Muscle biopsies of nine young men who undertook RE training for 10-wks were collected pre and 24h post-RE at the first (W1) and last (W10) weeks of training and analysed using microarray. An unaccustomed RE bout (at W1) up-regulated muscle gene transcripts related to stress (e.g., heat shock proteins), damage and inflammation, structural remodelling, protein turnover and increased translational capacity. Trained muscles (at W10) became more efficient metabolically, as training favoured a more oxidative metabolism, refined response to stress, showed by genes suppression related to RE-induced stress and inflammation, and up-regulated genes indicating greater muscle contractile efficiency and contribution to promote muscle growth and development. These data highlight that chronic repetition of RE increases muscle efficiency and adapt muscles to respond more specifically and accurately to RE-induced stress.
Resistance training in young men induces muscle transcriptome-wide changes associated with muscle structure and metabolism refining the response to exercise-induced stress.

View SamplesTo investigate the role of viral and host factors in HDV-associated HCC we carried out an integrated clinicopathological and gene expression study of tissue specimens and laser microdissected hepatocytes obtained at the time of liver transplantation from livers with HDV-HCC, HDV-cirrhosis without HCC, HCV-HCC and HBV-HCC. References to GSM series of HDV and HBV livers, already deposited in GEO, are included in this series. Part of data of HCV livers are a re-analysis of GSE series GSE69715 and GSE78737, the re-analyzed GSM is indicated in the 'description' column and with a link at the bottom of the page.

View SamplesSeveral studies demonstrated IgVH mutation status and ZAP-70 expression as the most relevant prognostic markers in CLL, suggesting the separation of two patient subgroups: with good (MTZAP-70-) and poor prognosis (UMZAP-70+). We determined gene expression of B cells in 112 CLL patients divided into three classes: the first with IgVHMT and ZAP-70-, the second with IgVHUM and ZAP-70+, and the third included both IgVHUM ZAP-70- and IgVHMT ZAP-70+. We found LPL, AGPAT2, MBOAT1, CHPT1, AGPAT4, PLD1 genes encoding enzymes involved in lipid (glycerolipid/glycerophospholipid) metabolism overexpressed in UMZAP-70+. In addition, this study demonstrates the role of ARSD, a gene belonging to the sphingolipid metabolism, as a new gene significantly overexpressed in UMZAP-70+ in respect to MTZAP-70-. ARSD protein was found at significantly higher concentrations in UMZAP-70+ compared to MTZAP-70- CLL B cells and B cells from healthy individuals by Western blotting. Statistical analysis identified a strong correlation between ARSD and IgVH mutation status; ARSD protein level was associated with the requirement of therapy for CLL patients and for this purpose it is as good as IgVH mutational status. Our study highlights ARSD as a promising new prognostic factor in CLL and sphingolipid metabolism as a putative new biological mechanism in CLL.
Gene expression profiling identifies ARSD as a new marker of disease progression and the sphingolipid metabolism as a potential novel metabolism in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

View SamplesTCERG1 is a highly conserved human protein implicated in interactions with the transcriptional and splicing machinery. To investigate TCERG1 function, we survey genome-wide changes in transcript and exon levels upon TCERG1 knockdown in HEK293T cells. Our data revealed that TCERG1 regulates different types of alternative spliced events, indicating a broad role in the regulation of alternative splicing.
