Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The transcriptional repressor Zbtb20 is essential for specification of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons. Moreover, ectopic expression of Zbtb20 is sufficient to transform subicular and retrosplenial areas of D6/Zbtb20S mice to CA1. We used microarrays to identify genes that are repressed by Zbtb20 in developing CA1 pyramidal neurons in the CA1-transformed cortex of D6/Zbtb20S mice.
Publication Title
Zbtb20 defines a hippocampal neuronal identity through direct repression of genes that control projection neuron development in the isocortex.

Description
Gene expression profiling is a promising diagnostic and prognostic tool. Expression profiles are snap-shots of mRNA levels at time of extraction and they have been shown to be affected by tissue handling during sample collection. The effect of cold (room temperature) ischemia in the time interval between surgical removal of the specimen and freezing has been described in a number of studies. However, not much is known about the effect of warm (body temperature) ischemia during surgery.
Publication Title
Differential effect of surgical manipulation on gene expression in normal breast tissue and breast tumor tissue.

Description
Irritant contact dermatitis (ICD) pathogenesis is not completely understood and the genes participating in the epidermal response towards chemical irritants are only partly known. It is commonly accepted that different irritants have different mechanisms of action in the development of ICD. To define the differential molecular events induced in the epidermis by different irritants, we collected sequential biopsies (, 4 and 24 hours after a single exposure and at day 11 after repeated exposure) from human volunteers exposed to sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) or nonanoic acid (NON). Gene expression analysis using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays revealed essentially different pathway responses h after exposure: NON transiently induced the IL-6 pathway as well as a number of mitogen activated signalling cascades including ERK and growth factor receptor signalling, whereas SLS transiently downregulated cellular energy metabolism pathways. Differential expression of the cyclooxygenase-2 and matrix metalloproteinase 3 transcripts was confirmed immunohistochemically. After cumulative exposure, 883 genes were differentially expressed while 26 suggested common biomarkers were identified . In conclusion, we bring new insights into two hitherto less well elucidated phases of skin irritancy: the very initial as well as the late phase after single and cumulative exposure, respectively.

Description
To obtain a separation of the epidermal and dermal compartments in order to examine compartment specific biological mechanisms in the skin we incubated 4 mm human skin punch biopsies in ammonium thiocyanate (NH4SCN). We wanted to test 1) the histological quality of the dermo-epidermal separation obtained by different incubation times 2) the amount and quality of extractable epidermal RNA, and 3) its impact on sample RNA expression profiles assessed by large-scale gene expression microarray analysis in both normal and inflamed skin. At 30 minutes incubation, the split between dermis and epidermis was not always histologically well-defined (i.e. occurred partly intra-epidermally) but varied between subjects. Consequently, curettage along the dermal surface of the biopsy was added to the procedure. This modified method resulted in an almost perfect separation of the epidermal and dermal compartments and satisfactory amounts of high-quality RNA were obtained. Hybridization to Affymetrix HG_U133A 2.0 GeneChips showed that ammonium thiocyanate incubation had a minute effect on gene expression resulting in only one significantly downregulated gene (cystatin E/M). We conclude that epidermis can be reproducibly and almost completely separated from the dermis of 4 mm skin biopsies by 30 min incubation in 3.8% ammonium thiocyanate combined with curettage of the dermal surface, producing high-quality RNA suitable for transcriptional analysis. Our refined method of dermo-epidermal separation will undoubtedly prove valuable in the many different settings, where the epidermal and dermal compartments need to be evaluated separately.
