Description
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a universally fatal malignancy of the childhood central nervous system, with a median overall survival of 9-11 months. We have previously shown that primary DIPG tissue contains numerous tumor-associated macrophages, and substantial work has demonstrated a significant pathological role for adult glioma-associated macrophages. However, work over the past decade has highlighted many molecular and genomic differences between pediatric and adult glioblastomas (GBM). Thus, we directly compared inflammatory characteristics of DIPG and adult GBM. We found that the leukocyte (CD45+) compartment in primary DIPG tissue samples is predominantly composed of CD11b+ macrophages, with very few CD3+ T-lymphocytes. In contrast, T-lymphocytes are more abundant in adult GBM tissue samples. RNA sequencing of macrophages isolated from primary tumor samples revealed that DIPG- and adult GBM-associated macrophages both express gene programs related to ECM remodeling and angiogenesis, but DIPG-associated macrophages express substantially fewer inflammatory factors than their adult GBM counterparts. Examining the secretome of glioma cells, we found that patient-derived DIPG cell cultures secrete markedly fewer cytokines and chemokines than patient-derived adult GBM cultures. Concordantly, bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing data indicates low to absent expression of chemokines and cytokines in DIPG. Together, these observations suggest that the inflammatory milieu of the DIPG tumor microenvironment is fundamentally different than adult GBM. The low intrinsic inflammatory signature of DIPG cells may contribute to the lack of lymphocytes and non-inflammatory phenotype of DIPG-associated microglia/macrophages. Understanding the glioma subtype-specific inflammatory milieu may inform the design and application of immunotherapy-based treatments. Overall design: RNA-seq of primary isolated microglia/macrophages from early post-mortem DIPG tissue samples, pediatric normal cortex, and adult GBM tissue samples. Libraries were sequenced on Illumina NextSeq 500, 1x75.

Affymetrix Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array (hgu133a2)
Description
Combination therapy with Smo and PI3K inhibitors results in a synergistic effect in reducing tumor growth in PTEN-deficient Glioblastoma. To identify consequences of combination therapy with an Smo inhibitor and a PI3K inhibitor on a genome-wide scale, we performed Affymetrix microarrays with two different PTEN-deficient GBMs treated with single drugs or combination therapy. A small set of genes was significantly affected by combination therapy in hBT70 and/or hBT112, including several genes implicated in GBM prognosis, or identified as targets of Shh, PI3K or S6 pathways 29-33 .

- Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can enter different pathways in mammalian cells, including sequence-specific RNA interference, sequence-independent interferon response and editing by adenosine deaminases. To assess the potential of expressed dsRNA to induce interferon stimulated genes in somatic cells, we performed microarray analysis of HEK293 and HeLa cells transfected with a MosIR plasmid expressing an mRNA with a long inverted repeat structure in its 3UTR (MosIR) or with a parental MosIR plasmid (without inverted repeat) as a control.

Description
To identify genes differentially expressed in the glandless uterus, whole uteri were collected from control (uterine glands present) and PUGKO (no uterine glands) mice at day of pseudopregnancy (DOPP) 3.5 (day DOPP 0.5= vaginal plug). Microarray analysis identified differentially expressed genes in the glandless uteri of PUGKO mice as compared to control mice.

Description
To identify candidate genes regulated by forkhead transcription factor box A2 (FOXA2) in the uterus, control and Foxa2-deleted uteri were collected at day of pseudopregnancy (DOPP) 3.5 (DOPP 0.5= vaginal plug). Microarray analysis identified differentially expressed genes in the Foxa2-deleted as compared to control uteri that are candidiate FOXA2-regulated genes in the uterus.
