Gene expression was analyzed and compared of normal mouse hepatocyte, premalignant hepatocytes and fully malignant HCC cells. The results provide valuable information about the gene expression alterations during the chronic process of liver cancer development.

View SamplesHuman subjects were randomized for treatment with a GnRH-analogue, Goserelin, which suppresses endogenous testosterone or placebo for 12 weeks. Strength training was performed during the last 8 weeks. The suppression of testosterone resulted in an attenuation of the normal muscle adaptation to strength training (increased muscle mass and strength). To identify molecular signals involved in the response to testosterone levels, biopsies were obtained 4 hours after the last training session and gene expression compared with Affymetrix 3' microarrays. This timepoint should capture goserelin effect on both constitutive expression, training induced changes as well as acute exercise induced (4 hours) differences in mRNA levels.

View SamplesTruncating CHD8 mutations are amongst the highest confidence risk factors for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) identified to date. Here, we report that Chd8 heterozygous mice display increased brain size, motor delay, hypertelorism, pronounced hypoactivity, and anomalous responses to social stimuli. Whereas gene expression in the neocortex is only mildly affected at mid gestation, over 600 genes are differentially expressed in the early postnatal neocortex. Genes involved in cell adhesion and axon guidance are particularly prominent amongst the downregulated transcripts. Resting-state functional MRI identified increased synchronized activity in corticohippocampal and auditory-parietal networks in Chd8 heterozygous mutant mice, implicating altered connectivity as a potential mechanism underlying the behavioral phenotypes. Together, these data suggest that altered brain growth and diminished expression of important neurodevelopmental genes that regulate long-range brain wiring are followed by distinctive anomalies in functional brain connectivity in Chd8 +/- mice. Human imaging studies have reported altered functional connectivity in ASD patients, with long-range under-connectivity seemingly more frequent. Our data suggest that CHD8 haploinsufficiency represents a specific subtype of ASD where neuropsychiatric symptoms are underpinned by long-range over-connectivity. Overall design: RNA was isolated from microdissected cortices at E12.5 (both hemispheres) and P5 (one hemisphere and DNase-treated using the Direct-zol RNA MiniPrep kit (Zymo Research) according to the manufacturer?s instructions (n = 3 per experimental group). cDNA was end-repaired, adaptor-ligated, and A-tailed. Samples were sequenced over 2 lanes of the Illumina HiSEq 4000 platform.

View SamplesAnalysis of umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) treated with Egr-3 siRNA under the VEGF treatment for 0,1, and 4 h. Egr-3, a member of early growth response family, is immediately and dramatically induced by VEGF in HUVEC, which regulates expression of many genes related to endothelial activation.
Vascular endothelial growth factor activation of endothelial cells is mediated by early growth response-3.

View SamplesWe performed the newly mapping of genome-wide NFATc1 binding events in VEGF-stimulated primary cultured endothelial cells, by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq). Combined NFATc1 ChIP-seq profile and the epigenetic histone marks revealed that predominant NFATc1-occupied peaks were overlapped with promoter marking but not silencer marking. DNA microarrays with NFATc1 expression or knockdown indicated the predominant NFATc1 binding targets were correlated with induced patterns.
