We aimed to determine the characteristic of IL-10-producing ILCs induced from ILC2s by RA. We found that IL-10-producing ILCs has distinct characteristic compared to IL-10 negative ILCs. Overall design: mRNA profile of IL-10 positive ILCs and IL-10 negative ILCs genarated from ILC2s

View SamplesThe goal of this study was to define relationships between peripheral blood miRNAs and mRNAs of women undergoing idiopathic preterm labor (PTL) and compare network level changes to control women that deliver at term.Using RNA Sequencing we have performed global miRNA and mRNA profiling in both monocytes and whole blood leukocytes of women who underwent PTL (N=15) matched to non-pathological controls (N=30) as a part of the Ontario Birth Study cohort. We have identified differentially expressed miRNAs, mRNAs and pathways associated with PTL. Intriguingly, we found perturbations in many cellular signaling pathways, particularly in interleukin signaling. We also predicted mRNA targets for specific miRNAs and used these predictions to build putative miRNA-mRNA networks. We identified 6 miRNAs significantly associated with PTL whose expression is negatively correlated with expression of 14 predicted mRNA targets that are also significantly associated with PTL. Overall design: miRNA and mRNA were quantified from whole blood and monocytes of women undergoing spontaneous preterm labor compared to nonlabor controls matched on gestational age

View SamplesThe ability to dissect heterogeneity in colorectal cancer (CRC) is a critical step in developing predictive biomarkers. The goal of this study was to develop a gene expression based molecular subgrouping model, which predicts the likelihood that patients will respond to specific therapies.

View SamplesPurpose: Identify differentially expressed genes in placental samples from early-onset (EO) IUGR, EO-PE, as well as pregnancies complicated by both EO-PE and EO-IUGR Overall design: Methods: Isolated total RNA from human placenta at birth and used it for RNA-sequencing on the Hiseq2000. Sequences were aligned to the human transcriptome (hg19/genome_build37) . Aligned sequences were then used to obtain abundance measurements and conduct differential expression analysis.

View SamplesWe studied intragraft gene expression profiles of positive crossmatch (+XM) kidney transplant recipients who develop transplant glomerulopathy (TG) and those who do not. Whole genome microarray analysis and quantitative rt-PCR for 30 transcripts were performed on RNA from protocol renal allograft biopsies in 3 groups: 1) +XM/TG+ biopsies before and after TG; 2) +XM/NoTG; and 3) negative crossmatch kidney transplants (control). Microarray comparisons showed few differentially expressed genes between paired biopsies from +XM/TG+ recipients before and after the diagnosis of TG. Comparing +XM/TG+ and control groups, significantly altered expression was seen for 2,447 genes (18%) and 3,200 genes (24%) at early and late time points, respectively. Canonical pathway analyses of differentially expressed genes showed inflammatory genes associated with innate and adaptive immune responses. Comparing +XM/TG+ and +XM/NoTG groups, 3,718 probe sets were differentially expressed but these were over-represented in only 4 pathways. A classic accommodation phenotype was not identified. Using rt-PCR, the expression of inflammatory genes was significantly increased in +XM/TG+ recipients compared to control biopsies and to +XM/NoTG biopsies. In conclusion, pre-transplant DSA results in a gene expression profile characterized by inflammation and cellular infiltration and the majority of XM+ grafts are exposed to chronic injury.

View SamplesThe primary aim of this project was to identify novel factors, in particular the cell-surface protein CD109, which regulate osteoclastogenesis. Microarray analysis was performed comparing two pre-osteoclast cell lines generated from the RAW 264.7 osteoclast cell line: one that has the capacity to fuse forming large multinucleated cells and one that does not fuse. It was found that CD109 was up-regulated by > 17-fold in the osteoclast forming cell line when compared to the cell line that does not fuse.
CD109 plays a role in osteoclastogenesis.

View SamplesOsteoclast (OC) differentiation undergoes a two-step process: commitment of hematopoietic progenitor cells to tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAcP) positive OC precursors (OCPs), and fusion of OCPs into multinucleated OCs. In order to identify transcriptional profiles of genes in the transitional phase between OC commitment and fusion in OCG, Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays were performed on total RNA extracted from mouse (SV129/BL6 ) monocytes and pre-osteoclasts (pre-OCs), primed with macrophage colony-stimulated factor (M-CSF) or M-CSF and soluble recombinant receptor activator of NF-B ligand (sRANKL), respectively. The analysis identified 656 RANKL-up or down-regulated in the early stage of osteoclastogenesis.
