Glioblastomas show heterogeneous histological features. These distinct phenotypic states are thought to be associated with the presence of glioma stem cells (GSCs), which are highly tumorigenic and self-renewing sub-population of tumor cells that have different functional characteristics. To investigate gene expression including lncRNA (long non-coding RNA) in GSC, we have performed high-throughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) experiment using Illumina GAIIx. Overall design: Profiles of gene expression including lncRNA in GSC were generated by RNA-seq using Illumina GAIIx.

View SamplesPreviously, we constructed a coculture model to analyze the effect of macrophages on intestinal epithelial cells, and found that TNF-a secreted from human macrophage-like THP-1 cells induced cell damage to intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells (Exp.Cell.Res. 2006, 312(19):3909-19). In this study, we present activation of NF-kB in Caco-2 cells within 15 min after coculturing. To reveal how TNF-a secreted from THP-1 cells affects Caco-2 cells in an early stage of coculture, we exhaustively analyzed the changes of gene expression in Caco-2 cells cocultured with THP-1 cells over the time periods of 0, 1, 3, 6, 24, and 48 h by using a DNA microarray. Differentially expressed genes extracted with maSigPro demonstrated that IEX-1 was the lowest p-value gene, that is, the most significantly changed gene among the up-regulated genes. The genes expressed in a similar pattern to IEX-1 involved immunity, apoptosis, and protein kinase cascade. These findings suggest that the stimuli of TNF-a from THP-1 cells activates NF-kB, leading induction of various gene expression. This pattern of gene expression indicates that not only early defense response but also cell death occurs at the same time, causing inflammatory condition.

View SamplesPluripotency is the differentiation capacity of particular cells exhibited in the early embryo in vivo and embryonic stem (ES) cells have been shown to originate from the inner cell mass (ICM) of an E3.5 blastocyst. Although the potential for ES cells to differentiate into the three germ layers is equated to ICM cells, they differ in the ability to maintain the capacity for self-renewal. Despite several studies on the maintenance of ES cells in the ground state of pluripotency, the precise mechanism of conversion from the ICM to the ES cell remains unclear. Here , we have examined the cell characteristics and expression profile within the intermediate stages of ES cell derivation from the ICM. Gene clustering and ontology (GO) analyses showed a significant change in the expression of epigenetic modifiers and DNA methylation-related genes in the intermediate stages. We have proposed that an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) blockage is required during derivation of mouse ES cells from E3.5 blastocysts. This study suggests a novel mechanistic insight into ES cell derivation and provides a time-course transcriptome profiling resource for the dissection of gene regulatory networks that underlie the transition from ICM to ES cells.
