- Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Array (mouse430a2)
Description
To examine the role of Rb1 in gastrointestinal (GI) tumors we generated mice with an Apc1638N allele, Rbtm2brn floxed alleles, and a villlin-cre transgene (RBVCA). These mice had reduced median survival due to an increase in tumor incidence and multiplicity in the cecum and the proximal colon; they differed from murine intestinal tumors of the Apc1638N type which normally arise solely in the small intestine. We have examined by micro-array analysis three cecal tumors from these mice (probable adenomas), and compared them to three duodenal tumors (probable adenocarcinomas). Expression profiles of duodenal and cecal tumors relative to each other show unique gene subsets up and down regulated. The two tumor types were subsequently shown to differentially regulate distinct sets of genes over expressed in a majority of human colorectal carcinomas.

Description
Many components of Wnt/-catenin signaling pathway also play critical roles in mammary tumor development. To study the role of Apc in mammary tumorigensis, we introduced conditional Apc mutations specifically into two different mammary epithelial populations using K14-Cre (progenitor) and WAP-cre (lactaing luminal) transgenic mice. Only the K14-cre mediated Apc heterozygosity developed mammary adenocarcinomas demonstrating histological and molecular heterogeneity, suggesting the progenitor cell origin of these tumors. These tumors harbored truncation mutation in a very defined region in the remaining wild-type allele of Apc that would retain some down-regulating activity of -catenin signaling. Our results suggest that not only the epithelial origin but also a certain Apc mutations are selected to achieve a specific level of -catenin signaling optimal for mammary tumor development.

Illumina HiSeq 2500
Description
The overall goal of our studies is to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanism by which the transcription factor Casz1 functions in murine heart development. We established that Casz1 is expressed in myocardial progenitor cells beginning at E7.5 and in differentiated cardiomyocytes throughout development. We generated conditional Casz1 knockout mice to show that ablation of CASZ1 in Nkx2.5-positive cardiomyocytes leads to cardiac hypoplasia, ventricular septal defects and lethality by E13.5. To identify the pathways and networks by which Casz1 regulates cardiomyocyte development, we used RNA-Seq and identified genes involved in cell proliferation are upregulated in Casz1 mutants compared to wild-type littermates. We conclude that Casz1 is essential for cardiac development and has a pivotal role in regulating part of the cardiac transcriptional program. Overall design: 3 biological replicates of the two genotypes (Nkx2-5+/+,Casz1f/+ and Nkx2-5Cre/+,Casz1f/f) were used for RNA-seq to determine genes that are differentially expressed in the murine heart when Casz1 is mutated. Nkx2-5+/+,Casz1f/+ were used as wild-type controls for comparison.
Publication Title
Casz1 is required for cardiomyocyte G1-to-S phase progression during mammalian cardiac development.

- Affymetrix Chicken Genome Array (chicken)
Description
While infection of chickens with highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 subtypes often leads to complete mortality within 24 to 48 h, infection of ducks in contrast causes mild or no clinical signs. Rapid onsets of fatal disease in chickens, but with no evidence of severe clinical symptoms in ducks, suggest underlying differences in their innate immune mechanisms. To understand the molecular basis for such difference, chicken and duck primary lung cells, infected with a low-pathogenicity avian influenza (LPAI) and two HPAI H5N1 viruses, were subjected to RNA expression profiling using Affymetrix Chicken GeneChip arrays.
Publication Title
Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus infection in chickens but not ducks is associated with elevated host immune and pro-inflammatory responses.

Description
Inhibition of the HSP90 chaperone results in depletion of many signaling proteins that drive tumorigenesis, such as downstream effectors of KRAS, the most commonly mutated human oncogene. As a consequence, several small-molecule HSP90 inhibitors are being evaluated in clinical trials as anticancer agents. To prospectively identify mechanisms through which HSP90-dependent cancer cells evade pharmacologic HSP90 blockade, we generated multiple mutant KRAS-driven cancer cell lines with acquired resistance to the purine-scaffold HSP90 inhibitor PU-H71. All cell lines retained dependence on HSP90 function, as evidenced by sensitivity to short hairpin RNA-mediated suppression of HSP90AA1 or HSP90AB1 (also called HSP90 and HSP90, respectively), and exhibited two types of genomic alterations that interfere with the effects of PU-H71 on cell viability and proliferation: (i) a Y142N missense mutation in the ATP-binding domain of HSP90 that co-occurred with amplification of the HSP90AA1 locus, (ii) genomic amplification and overexpression of the ABCB1 gene encoding the MDR1 drug efflux pump. In support of a functional role for these alterations, exogenous expression of HSP90 Y142N conferred PU-H71 resistance to HSP90-dependent cells, and pharmacologic MDR1 inhibition with tariquidar or lowering ABCB1 expression restored sensitivity to PU-H71 in ABCB1-amplified cells. Finally, comparison with structurally distinct HSP90 inhibitors currently in clinical development revealed that PU-H71 resistance could be overcome, in part, by ganetespib (also known as STA9090) but not tanespimycin (also known as 17-AAG). Together, these data identify potential mechanisms of acquired resistance to small molecules targeting HSP90 that may warrant proactive screening for additional HSP90 inhibitors or rational combination therapies.

Description
MYCN-high and MYCN-low neuroblastoma cells differ in their responses to Doxorubicin treatment. To explain this difference we compared the global trancriptomes of MYCN-high and MYCN-low cells before, during and after treatment. Overall design: MYCN-high cells without doxycyline and MYCN-low cells with doxycycline were treated with 0.1µg/ml Doxorubicin. Transcriptome was measured for the following time points: in untreated cells, in cells which were treated with Doxorubicin for 72 hours, and in cells collected three, eight and fourteen days after Doxorubin washout. Experiment was performed in biological duplicate.
