Description
PURPOSE: Validated biomarkers predictive of response/resistance to anthracyclines in breast cancer are currently lacking. The neoadjuvant TOP trial, in which patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-negative tumors were treated with anthracycline (epirubicin) monotherapy, was specifically designed to evaluate the predictive value of topoisomerase II (TOP2A) and to develop a gene expression signature to identify those patients who do not benefit from anthracyclines.

Two samples of cbtOE with two samples of their controls.

Description
Control (+/cbtE1-UAS-cbt RNAi) or cabut RNAi flies (Tim-gal4, UAS-cbt RNAi) were starved for 16 hours and then exposed to food containing different concentrations of sucrose: 0, 25, 50 and 100 % for 18 hours. Fly heads were collected, RNA was extracted and RNA-seq libraries were prepared as previously described (Engreitz et al., 2013) Overall design: For each sucrose concentration, two samples of cabut RNAi flies and one sample of control flies were sequenced.

Description
Methods: CaMKIIa-creERT2 (Erdmann et al., 2007) and Dicer1f/f (Harfe et al., 2005) were crossed to produce inducible forebrain-restricted Dicer1 knockout mice (Dicer-ifKO) mice. Hippocampal mRNA profiles of 3-month-old wild-type (WT) and (Dicer-ifKO) mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 2500. Each sample included total RNA isolated from the hippocampus of 3 mice. In total, 12 mice per genotype were used. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were mapped to reference genome (GRCm38/mm10) using Bowtie 2 (2.0.5) and TopHat (2.0.6). SAM/BAM files were further processed with Samtools (0.1.18). Read count quantitations were obtained using Seqmonk (0.26.0). Normalization of read counts and differential expression analysis between genotypes was carried out using DESeq2 R package from Bioconductor (Release 2.13). qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Results: We mapped about 13-14 million sequence reads per sample to the mouse genome (build GRCm38/mm10) and quantified 76,938 annotated transcripts. DESeq2 R package was used to normalize the counts and perform the differential expression. Differential analysis output was filtered by FDR threshold (padj < 0.1). This approach led us to identify 641 gene isoforms, corresponding to 314 genes that were differentially regulated in the mouse hippocampus upon Dicer ablation. Conclusions: We extend here the characterization of inducible forebrain-restricted Dicer1 mutants confirming the initial memory improvement. Moreover, we describe several novel phenotypes associated with early Dicer loss in the mature brain including an exacerbated response to seizures, increased CA1 neuron excitability, a pronounced weight gain and enhanced induction of immediate early genes (IEGs) in relevant neuronal nuclei. To identify candidate genes that could explain these phenotypes, we conducted two complementary genomic screens for the miRNAs primarily affected and their targets. Overall, our results explain both the initial and late consequences of Dicer loss in excitatory neurons and indicate that Dicer and the miRNA system play a critical role regulating neuronal homeostasis and responsiveness. Overall design: Hippocampal mRNA profiles of 3-month-old wild-type (WT) and Dicer-ifKO (3 weeks upon tamoxifen administration) male mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 2500. Each sample included total RNA isolated from the hippocampus of 3 mice. In total, 12 mice per genotype were used.

Description
Cellular senescence is a program of irreversible cell cycle arrest that normal cells undergo in response to progressive shortening of telomeres, changes in telomeric structure, oncogene activation or oxidative stress. The underlying signalling pathways, potentially of major clinicopathological relevance, are unknown. A major stumbling block to studying senescence has been the absence of suitable model systems because of the asynchrony of this process in heterogeneous cell populations. To simplify this process many investigators study oncogene-induced senescence due to expression of activated oncogenes where senescence occurs prematurely without telomere attrition and can be induced acutely in a variety of cell types. We have taken a different approach by making use of the finding that reconstitution of telomerase activity by introduction of the catalytic subunit of human telomerase alone is incapable of immortalising all human somatic cells, but inactivation of the p16-pRB and p53-p21 pathways are required in addition. The ability of SV40 large T antigen to inactivate the p16-pRB and p53-p21 pathways has enabled us to use a thermolabile mutant of LT antigen, in conjunction with hTERT, to develop conditionally immortalised human (HMF3A) fibroblasts that are immortal but undergo an irreversible growth arrest when the thermolabile LT antigen is inactivated leading to activation of pRB and p53. When these cells cease dividing, senescence-associated- b-galactosidase activity is induced and the growth-arrested cells have morphological features and express genes in common with senescent cells. Since these cells growth arrest in a synchronous manner they are an excellent starting point for dissecting the pathways that underlie cellular senescence and act downstream of p16-pRB and p53-p21 pathways. We have combined genome-wide expression profiling with genetic complementation to undertake identification of genes that are differentially expressed when these conditionally immortalised human fibroblasts undergo senescence upon activation of the p16-pRB and p53-p21 tumour suppressor pathways.
