Illumina humanRef-8 v2.0 expression beadchip
Description
Numerous studies have shown the potential of spermatozoal RNAs to delineate failures of spermatogenic pathways in infertile samples. However, the RNA contribution of normal fertile samples still needs to be established in relation to transcripts consistently present in human spermatozoa. We report here the spermatozoal transcript profiles characteristic of 24 normally fertile individuals. RNA was extracted from the purified sperm cells of ejaculate and hybridized to Illumina Human-8 BeadChip Microarrays

Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Normal human spermatogenesis concludes with the formation of large numbers of morphologically well developed spermatozoa. While transcriptionally quiescent these cells carry an RNA payload that reflects the final spermiogenic phase of transcription. We report here the spermatozoal transcript profiles characteristic of normally fertile individuals and infertile males suffering from a consistent and severe teratozoospermia in which under 4% of spermatozoa are morphologically normal. RNA was extracted from the purified sperm cells of ejaculate and hybridized to Affymetrix U133 (v2) Microarrays.

Description
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is expressed in around 60% of glioblastomas and conveys tumorigenic function. Therefore, ALK inhibitory strategies with alectinib were investigated in glioblastoma cells. We demonstrated that alectinib inhibited proliferation and clonogenicity of ALK expressing glioblastoma initiating cells, whereas cells without ALK expression or after ALK depletion via knockdown showed primary resistance against alectinib. The aim of this analysis was to investigate molecular mechanisms of alectinib mediated treatment effects in the ALK expressing S24 cells, which represent a primary glioblastoma cell culture, and after knockdown of ALK.

Description
Nearly all colorectal cancers have dysregulated Wnt signalling, predominantly through the mutation of the Apc (Adenomatous Polyposis Coli) gene. Therefore it is of vital importance to elucidate the key Wnt target genes in intestinal cells in vivo. We have used a novel inducible cre-lox based murine system (designated ApcFlox) to investigate the consequences of perturbation of Wnt signalling following inactivation of Apc in vivo within 100% of the intestinal epithelium. We have employed microarray analysis at 3 time points within our ApcFlox system (Day 3 prior to the onset of phenotype, day 4 the establishment of the phenotype and day 5 gross phenotype of altered proliferation, differentiation and migration) and from adenomas arising in the ApcMin/+ background allowing us characterise Wnt/beta-catenin target genes based on their expression profiles during different stages of intestinal tumourigenesis. Furthermore, we have employed microarray analysis using livers from our ApcFlox system and have demonstrated that there is very little overlap in the Wnt target genes induced by Apc loss in the liver and the intestine. More importantly, we have been able to determine a novel set of putative Wnt/beta-catenin target genes which are upregulated at both early and late stages of tumourigenesis in the intestine and may represent novel therapeutic targets in colon cancer.

Description
Wnt signaling is intrinsic to mouse embryonic stem cell self-renewal. Therefore it is surprising that reprogramming of somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is not strongly enhanced by Wnt signaling. Here, we demonstrate that active Wnt signaling inhibits the early stage of reprogramming to iPSCs, while it is required and even stimulating during the late stage. Mechanistically, this biphasic effect of Wnt signaling is accompanied by a change in the requirement of all four of its transcriptional effectors: Tcf1, Lef1, Tcf3, and Tcf4. For example, Tcf3 and Tcf4 are stimulatory early but inhibitory late in the reprogramming process. Accordingly, ectopic expression of Tcf3 early in reprogramming combined with its loss-of-function late enables efficient reprogramming in the absence of ectopic Sox2. Together, our data indicate that the step-wise process of reprogramming to iPSCs is critically dependent on the stage-specific control and action of all four Tcfs and Wnt signaling.
