Description
The aim of this experiment was to identify the genes involved in the detoxification of the toxic pollutant and explosive compound 2,4,6-trinitrotolune (TNT). Fourteen-day-old, liquid culture grown, Arabidopsis seedlings, ecotype Col0 (NASC stock code N1093), were dosed with 60 uM TNT dissolved in 60 ul dimethyl formamide (DMF) solvent, or 60 ul DMF only. After six hours, RNA was extracted and used for the microarray analysis. Further details and characterisation of glucosyltransferases identified using this method are presented in citation below.

Description
Gold is widely considered to be a biologically inert element; however, it can elicit a profound biological response in plants. Plants can be exposed to significant levels of this precious metal in the environment from naturally occurring sources, as the result of mining activities or more recently resulting from the escalating use of nanoparticles in industry. In this microarray study we have investigated the gene expression response of Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) to gold. Although the uptake of metal cations by plant transporters is well characterised, little is known about the uptake of gold, which exists in soil predominantly in a zero-valent state (Au0). We used this study to monitor the expression of candidate genes involved in metal uptake and transport. These show the down-regulation of a discreet number of genes known to be involved in the transport of copper, cadmium, nickel and iron.

Description
MYCN-high and MYCN-low neuroblastoma cells differ in their responses to Doxorubicin treatment. To explain this difference we compared the global trancriptomes of MYCN-high and MYCN-low cells before, during and after treatment. Overall design: MYCN-high cells without doxycyline and MYCN-low cells with doxycycline were treated with 0.1µg/ml Doxorubicin. Transcriptome was measured for the following time points: in untreated cells, in cells which were treated with Doxorubicin for 72 hours, and in cells collected three, eight and fourteen days after Doxorubin washout. Experiment was performed in biological duplicate.

Description
Secondary bacterial pneumonia following influenza infection is a significant cause of mortality worldwide. Upper respiratory tract pneumococcal carriage is important as both determinants of disease and population transmission. The immunological mechanisms that contain pneumococcal carriage are well-studied in mice but remain unclear in humans. Loss of this control of carriage following influenza infection is associated with secondary bacterial pneumonia during seasonal and pandemic outbreaks. We used a human type 6B pneumococcal challenge model to show that carriage acquisition induces early degranulation of resident neutrophils and recruitment of monocytes to the nose. Monocyte function associated with clearance of pneumococcal carriage. Prior nasal infection with live attenuated influenza virus induced inflammation, impaired innate function and altered genome-wide nasal gene responses to pneumococcal carriage. Levels of the cytokine IP-10 promoted by viral infection at the time of pneumococcal encounter was positively associated with bacterial density. These findings provide novel insights in nasal immunity to pneumococcus and viral-bacterial interactions during co-infection. Overall design: 96 nasal samples from healthy volunteers experimentally challenged with pneumococcus, 3 days after receiving live attenuated influenza vaccine or tetravalent inactivated influenza vaccine underwent RNA-Sequencing. Nasal cells were collected at baseline (D-4) before vaccination, and at 5 days after vaccination (or 2 days after pneumococcal inoculation, D+2) and at 12 days after vaccination (or 9 days after pneumoocccal inoculation, D9)
