The plasma protein FHR1 induces release of inflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-18 or TNFa from blood-derived human monocytes. RNA sequencing was performed from RNA of BSA- or FHR1-treated monocytes from 4 different donors. In response to FHR1, 522 monocytic genes were upregulated (gene ontology enrichment analysis), including 35 inflammation related genes, e.g. TNF. Also, G protein-coupled receptors such as EMR2/ADGRE2 were upregulated in response to FHR1. Overall design: Blood-derived monocytes were treated with BSA or FHR1, after 4h RNA was isolated. RNA of 4 donors were combined and sequenced.
Serum FHR1 binding to necrotic-type cells activates monocytic inflammasome and marks necrotic sites in vasculopathies.

View SamplesPlants can perceive the presence of pathogens at the cell surface and plant damage-derived molecules via recognition of conserved microbial molecules, named pathogen- or microbe-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Well-studied examples of PAMPs are chito-oligomers, breakdown products of fungal cell walls and insect exoskeletons. Pectin-derived oligogalacturonides (OGs) are well-characterized DAMPs. Both PAMPs nd DAMPs are capable of activating plant immunity, generating changes in gene expression that lead to increased production of defense compounds and proteins; thus, equipping the plant cell to defend itself.

View SamplesTo identify patterns of gene expression that correlate with response to treatment with either melphalan or temozolomide we measured both gene expression using microarray genechips and response to drug using a standard in vitro cell proliferation assay. Senstivity to melphalan was measured 48hrs after drug treatment while sensitivity to temozolomide was measured 12 days after drug treatment.
Genomic and molecular profiling predicts response to temozolomide in melanoma.

View SamplesPlant cell surface receptors sense microbial pathogens by recognizing microbial structures called pathogen or microbe-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs/MAMPs). There are two major types of plant pattern recognition receptors: 1. Leucine-rich repeat receptor proteins (LRR-RP) and LRR receptor kinases (LRR-RK) and 2. Plant receptor proteins and receptor kinases carrying ectopic lysin motifs (LysM-RP and LysM-RK). In this study, Arabidopsis thaliana responses to three different MAMPs, flg22, nlp20, chitin (C6), via their corresponding receptor types, FLS2 (LRR-RK), RLP23 (LRR-RP), CERK1 (LysM-RK) were compared. Our RNA-seq results indicate that a core set of defense-related genes can be activated through perception of different MAMPs. However, there are also notable differences in the transcriptional changes in response to the various elicitors; flg22 causes broader transcriptome changes than nlp20 and C6, and C6 does not cause late transcriptome changes. Overall design: Arabodopsis seedings were treated with water, flg22, nlp20, or C6 and collected after 1h, 6h and 24h. One sample before treatment was also collected. 4 biological repecates were performed.

View SamplesLaser capture microdissected choroid plexuses were obtained and expression arrays were generated to investigate gene expression in wt and ApoE choroid plexuses; the choroid plexus forms the cerebrospinal fluid, the cerebrospinal fliod barrier, functions as the major gateway for blood-born leukocytes to enter the brain in degenerative and inflammatory brain diseases, and the principal neuroimmune interface in the brain. We found lipid deposits in the aged choroid plexus of hyperlipidemic mice but none in the wt control choroid plexuses. Here, we studied the functional impact and gene epressions in wt and ApoE-deficient choroid plexuses.
