Description
Pro-regenerative macrophages are well known for their role in promoting tissue repair, however in nerve injury their role in promoting regenerative events is not well defined. Macrophage-targeted RNAseq revealed that macrophages expressed an array of ligands post nerve injury that interact with the injury environement to regulate regeneration. Overall design: RNAseq experiment was performed on FACS-collected cells obtained from the nerves of adult female mice (n=7-8 per time point at Day 3 and 8 post-nerve injury) from a double macrophage reporter (Cx3cr1-GFP/Ccr2-RFP) mouse line (stock no.: 017586; stock No.: 005582, Jackson Laboratories). Samples were pooled to obtain 2 RNAseq sample replicates per time point. Monocytes were also included as a reference.

Description
Purpose: berrantly high expression of TRIM24 occurs in human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma. In contrast, TRIM24 in the mouse is reportedly a liver-specific tumor suppressor. To address this dichotomy and uncover direct regulatory functions of TRIM24 in vivo, we developed a new mouse model that lacks expression of all Trim24 isoforms, as the previous model expresses normal levels of Trim24 lacking only exon 4. Methods: To produce germline-deleted Trim24dlE1 mice, deletion of the promoter and exon 1 of Trim24 was induced in Trim24LoxP mice by crossing with a zona pellucida 3-Cre line for global deletion. Liver-specific deletion (Trim24hep) was achieved by crossing with an Albumin-Cre line. Phenotypic analyses were complemented by protein, gene-specific and global RNA expression analyses and quantitative chromatin immunoprecipitation. Results:Global loss of Trim24 disrupted hepatic homeostasis in 100% of mice with highly significant, decreased expression of oxidation/reduction, steroid, fatty acid and lipid metabolism genes, as well as increased expression of genes in unfolded protein, endoplasmic reticulum stress and cell cycle pathways. Trim24dlE1/dlE1 mice have markedly depleted visceral fat and, like Trim24hep/hep mice, spontaneously develop hepatic lipid-filled lesions, steatosis, hepatic injury, fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Conclusions: TRIM24, an epigenetic co-regulator of transcription, directly and indirectly represses hepatic lipid accumulation, inflammation, fibrosis and damage in the murine liver. Complete loss of Trim24 offers a model of human nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, steatosis, fibrosis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma in the absence of high-fat diet or obesity. Overall design: mRNA profiles of 8 weeks wild type (WT) and Trim24-/- mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 2000

Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
We have developed a nonheuristic genome topography scan (GTS) algorithm to characterize the patterns of genomic alterations in human glioblastoma (GBM), identifying frequent p18INK4C and p16INK4A codeletion. Functional reconstitution of p18INK4C in GBM cells null for both p16INK4A and p18INK4C resulted in impaired cell-cycle progression and tumorigenic potential. Conversely, RNAi-mediated depletion of p18INK4C in p16INK4A-deficient primary astrocytes or established GBM cells enhanced tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, acute suppression of p16INK4A in primary astrocytes induced a concomitant increase in p18INK4C. Together, these findings uncover a feedback regulatory circuit in the astrocytic lineage and demonstrate a bona fide tumor suppressor role for p18INK4C in human GBM wherein it functions cooperatively with other INK4 family members to constrain inappropriate proliferation.

Description
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is ranked second in cancer-associated deaths worldwide. Most cases of HCC are secondary to either a viral hepatitis infection (hepatitis B or C) or cirrhosis (alcoholism being the most common cause of hepatic cirrhosis). It is a complex and heterogeneous tumor due to activation of multiple cellular pathways and molecular alterations.

Description
The only target locus of transcription factor BglJ known to date is the bgl operon, and activation of bgl by BglJ requires RcsB. Transcription factor LeuO is involved in stress responses and known as antagonist of H-NS. To identifiy novel targets of BglJ, we overexpressed BglJ in Escherichia coli K12 and measured differential gene expression by performing DNA microarray analysis. Moreover, to analyze whether all targets of BglJ require RcsB, we overexpressed BglJ in an rcsB deletion background. In addition, we overexpressed LeuO to identifiy targets of LeuO.

Description
Positioned nucleosomes limit the access of proteins to DNA and implement regulatory features encoded in eukaryotic genomes. Here we generated the first genome-wide nucleosome positioning map for Schizosaccharomyces pombe and annotated transcription start and termination sites genome-wide. Using this resource we found surprising differences compared to the nucleosome organization in the distantly related yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae [the cerevisiae data has been published by others (PMID: 17873876) and the raw data is deposited at ArrayExpress(E-MEXP-1172)]. DNA sequence guides nucleosome positioning differently, e.g., poly(dA:dT) elements are not enriched in S. pombe nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs). Regular nucleosomal arrays emanate more asymmetrically, i.e., mainly co-directionally with transcription, from promoter NDRs, but promoters harbouring the histone variant H2A.Z show regular arrays also upstream. Regular nucleosome phasing in S. pombe has a very short repeat length of 154 base pairs, and requires a remodeler, Mit1, conserved in humans but not found in S. cerevisiae. Nucleosome positioning mechanisms are evidently not universal but evolutionarily plastic.

Description
We used high density oligonucleotide arrays to identify molecular correlates of genetically and clinically distinct subgroups of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Gene expression profiling was used to profile the five most frequent genomic aberrations, namely deletions affecting chromosome bands 13q14, 11q22-q23, 17p13 and 6q21, and gains of genomic material affecting chromosome band 12q13. A strikingly high degree of correlation between loss or gain of genomic material and the amount of transcripts from the affected regions leads to the hypothesis of gene dosage as a significant pathogenic factor. Furthermore, the influence of the immunoglobulin variable heavy chain (VH) mutation status was determined. A clear distinction in the expression profiles of unmutated and mutated VH samples exists, which can be discovered using unsupervised learning methods. However, when samples were separated by gender, this separation could only be detected in samples from male patients.
