Transcriptome analysis following Bcl6 induction (24h doxycycline) in mouse ES-cell-derived cortical progenitors (differentiation day 12) shows that Bcl6 promotes a neurogenic transcription program and represses selective genes of the main proliferative pathways. Overall design: RNA-seq screen for Bcl6-elicited gene expression changes in in vitro cortical progenitors (n=4)

- Affymetrix Barley Genome Array (barley1)
Description
We utilized the Barley1 Affymetrix GeneChip for comparative transcript analysis of Betzes barley, Chinese Spring wheat, and Chinese SpringBetzes ditelosomic chromosome addition lines to physically map barley genes to their respective chromosome arm locations. We mapped barley genes to chromosome arms (1HS, 2HS, 2HL, 3HS, 3HL, 4HS, 4HL, 5HS, 5HL, 7HS, and 7HL) based on their transcript levels in the ditelosomic addition lines. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Hatice Bilgic. The equivalent experiment is BB55 at PLEXdb.]

Description
STEAP4 is a plasma membrane metallo-reductase involved in the transport of iron and copper. Recently, STEAP4 was implicated in promoting insulin sensitivity by acting in white adipose tissue (WAT) to control the production of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6. Indeed, the loss of STEAP4 expression in mice leads to increased production of inflammatory cytokines in visceral WAT and systemic insulin resistance. In this report, we demonstrate that in mouse liver STEAP4 is produced at significant levels and that STEAP4 transcription is induced by IL-6. We further demonstrate that the STEAP4 gene is a direct target of phosphorylated STAT3 in mouse liver. In addition, hepatic STEAP4 expression is regulated by feeding and fasting, and obesity leads to the induction of STEAP4 expression in the liver. Interestingly, the regulation of STEAP4 in both feeding and fasting and the obese state appears to require the transcription factor C/EBPalpha that may act in concert with STAT3 as they both bind to the proximal STEAP4 promoter in vivo. Taken together these data suggest the transcriptional regulation of hepatic STEAP4 may play a critical role in the response to nutritional and inflammatory stress and contribute to the protective effect of STEAP4 in vivo.

Description
Mesenchyme-derived cells in the human airway wall including airway smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts and myofibroblasts are known to play important roles in airway remodeling. The lack of specific phenotypic markers makes it difficult to define these cell populations in primary cultures. The objectives of this study were to evaluate reported markers and to identify novel markers to define these cell types.

Description
Using wild-type and Rps5 heterozygous embryonic stem cells, we isolated RNA from polyribosomal fractions in order to get insights into transcriptional and translational defects of such deletion. Overall design: Input, monosomes and polysomes extracted RNA samples from wild-type and Rps5 heterozygous clones (undifferentiated and differentiated, total number of samples = 12), were subjected to sequencing.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
An important component of time course microarray studies is the identification of genes that demonstrate significant time-dependent variation in their expression levels. Until recently available methods for performing such significance tests required replicates of individual time points. This paper describes a replicate-free method that was developed as part of a study of the estrous cycle in the rat mammary gland in which no replicate data was collected.

Description
Purpose: The goal was to capture the transcriptional activity due to over-expression of HER2 protein. We profiled this transcriptional activity using two different RNA-Seq alignment and quantification pipelines. We also used these samples to generate a gene expression signature of HER2 pathway activity. Over-expression was validated using Western blots. Illumina RNA-Seq technology was used to capture the downstream transcriptional activity. Reads were 101 base pairs long and single ended. An R open source package “Rsubread” was used to align and quantify the read using UCSC hg19 annotation. The integer-based gene counts were later normalized in FPKM and TPM . Overall design: A profile of gene expression, downstream of ERBB2/HER2 over-expression, was generated in cells derived from breast and used to generate a gene-expression signature reflective of HER2 pathway activation status.

Description
The fallopian tube transports the gametes to the fertilization site and delivers the embryo to the uterus at the optimal time for implantation. Progesterone and the classical progesterone receptor (PGR) are known to be involved in regulating both tubal ciliary beating and muscular contractions, possibly involving both genomic and non-genomic actions. To provide more clues on the mechanisms involved, we investigated the effect of progesterone on gene expression in mice fallopian tubes in vitro at early (20 min) and later (2 h, 8 h) time-points using microarray and/or quantitative PCR. In parallel, oocyte cumulus complex transport was investigated in ovulating mice injected with one of the PGR antagonists, Org 31710 or CDB2194. Microarray analyses did not reveal any apparently regulated genes 20 min after progesterone treatment, in agreement with a proposed non-genomic action of progesterone controlling ciliary beating. After 2 h, 11 genes were significantly up-regulated. Analyses by quantitative PCR at 2 h and 8 h showed a consistent up-regulation of endothelin 1 (Edn1) and a down-regulation of its receptor Ednra by progesterone. We also show that treatment with progesterone receptor antagonist before ovulation accelerates the transport of the oocyte cumulus complex. This is the first study showing that progesterone regulates Edn1 and Ednra in the fallopian tube. Together with previous studies on endothelin-mediated effects on muscular contractions in the fallopian tube, the results from this study suggest that endothelin is a mediator of the progesterone-controlled effects on muscular contraction, and eventually gamete transport, in the fallopian tube.
