Description
We performed RNA-Seq transcriptome profiling on 29 immune cell types consituting peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) sorted from 4 Singaporean-Chinese individuals (S4 cohort). We also performed RNA-Seq and microarray transcriptome profiling of PBMCs from an extended cohort of 13 individuals (S13 cohort). The data was used first to characterize the transcriptomic signatures and relationships among the 29 immune cell types. Then we explored the difference in mRNA composition in terms of transcripts proportions and abundance. Lastly, we performed deep deconvolution for both microarray and RNA-Seq technologies. Overall design: Total RNA of 29 immune cell types (from 4 individuals) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs, from 13 individuals) was extracted for gene expression profiling. The 13 PBMCs samples were processed with both microarray and RNA-Seq platforms.

Description
Evidence from mouse chronic viral infection models suggests that CD8+ T cell subsets characterized by distinct expression levels of the receptor PD-1 diverge in their state of exhaustion and potential for reinvigoration by PD-1 blockade. However, it remains unknown whether T cells in human cancer adopt a similar spectrum of exhausted states based on PD-1 expression levels. We compared transcriptional, metabolic, and functional signatures of intratumoral CD8+ T lymphocyte populations with high (PD-1T), intermediate (PD-1N) and no PD-1 expression (PD-1-) from non-small cell lung cancer patients. We observed that, PD-1T T cells show a markedly different transcriptional and metabolic profile as compared to PD-1N and PD-1- lymphocytes, as well as an intrinsically high capacity for tumor recognition. Furthermore, while PD-1T lymphocytes are impaired in classical effector cytokine production, they produce CXCL13 that mediates immune cell recruitment to tertiary lymphoid structures. Strikingly, the presence of PD-1T cells was strongly predictive for both response and survival in a small cohort of non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with PD-1 blockade. The characterization of a distinct state of tumor-reactive, PD-1 bright lymphocytes in human cancer, which only partially resembles that seen in chronic infection, provides novel potential avenues for therapeutic intervention. Overall design: Intratumoral CD8+ T cells from 11 non-small cell lung cancer patients that were sub-sorted into PD1-high (PD-1T), PD1-intermediate (PD-1N) and PD1-negative (PD-1-) cells, were sequenced using Illumina HiSeq4000. In addition, peripheral blood effector memory T cells from 4 healthy donors were sequenced using Illumina HiSeq4000.

Description
This dataset contains whole-genome RNA sequencing results from rat embryonic hippocampal neuronal cultures and serves as the basis for characterization of CRISPR/dCas9 gene activation in neuronal systems. Overall design: This experiment contains 9 biological samples, each of which underwent directional, paired-end PolyA+ RNA-seq on an Illumina Next-seq 500. Samples were treated with Lacz sgRNA (LZ2, LZ4, & LZ5), Bdnf-I sgRNA (B16, B17, B18), or Bdnf-IV sgRNA (BIV11, BIV14, BIV15), in addition to a dCas9-VPR fusion. Datasets were obtained using RNA-seq from PolyA+ fractions fractions of RNA. Each sample has multiple files, corresponding to different sequencing lanes (e.g., L001, L002, etc) or different reads (e.g., R1, R2).

Description
Recent trials with MAPK inhibitors have shown promising results in many patients with metastatic melanoma; however, nearly all responding patients experience disease relapse. We describe here how melanoma cells respond to MAPK inhibition in a phenotype-specific manner, suggesting that slow cycling invasive phenotype cells provide a treatment-resistant pool from which disease relapse may be derived. The implication is that while MAPK inhibition may successfully treat proliferating cells, another cell population needs to be addressed at the same time.

Description
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.

Description
We address the molecular mechanisms through which MYC promotes loss of cell identity and acquisition of stem cell-like traits, favouring the onset of tumorigenesis, by performing gene expression profile analyses in a transition from WT IMEC, IMEC over-expressing MYC and mammospeheres formed from IMEC-MYC (named M2). We then investigated the global gene expression profile of the fraction of cells hyper-activating the WNT pathway in M2 spheres, compared to the ones with low activation

Description
Purpose: Communication between growth cones and their environment plays a central role in assembling neural circuits. We use Tandemly-Tagged Ribosome Affinity Purification (T-TRAP) of mRNA from R cells followed by RNA-seq for multiple time points during development to follow gene expression during target selection and synapse formation. Methods: We chose a ribosome trap method by modifying the N-terminus of the Drosophila ribosomal protein RpL10 with two tandemly arranged epitopes, 3X FLAG and GFP, separated by the Tobacco Etch Virus (TEV) protease site and expressed this in specific cell types using the GAL4/UAS system. cDNA libraries were prepared from mRNA associated with the affinity purified ribosomes and sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq 2000. We mapped raw reads to the D. melanogaster reference genome (release FB2013_01) with the gapped aligner Tophat. Only reads uniquely aligned were collected.Transcript expression levels were quantified using RPKM units using customized scripts written in Perl. Results: In this study, we observed massive changes in expression of cell surface proteins over short time scales (i.e. 5 fold differences in the expression of many hundreds of genes over 5 hr intervals) as R cell growth cones encounter the processes of many different neurons during their conversion from growth cones to synaptic terminals. In addition, to changes in transcripts encoding cell surface proteins, other mRNAs changed significantly as did non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) associated with ribosomes. Although dramatic changes in transcript levels of presynaptic proteins were not observed preceding the onset of synapse formation, marked changes in the 3''-untranslated regions of these transcripts were seen. Conclusions: These studies provide a step towards merging traditional genetic and global genomic approaches to understanding cellular recognition underlying the assembly of neural circuits. Overall design: We chose 7 time points for RNA-seq analysis of R cells during pupal development corresponding to 24, 35, 40, 45, 53, 65 and 96 hrs after pupal formation (APF).
