Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
The transcriptional profile of the human multiple myeloma (MM) cell line MM.1S treated with MLN4924 vs control MM.1S cells was characterized by oligonucleotide microarray analysis, using the human U133 plus 2.0 Affymetrix GeneChip, according to previously described protocols for total RNA extraction and purification; cDNA synthesis; in vitro transcription reaction for production of biotin-labeled cRNA; hybridization of cRNA with U133plus2.0 Affymetrix gene chips; and scanning of image output files. Scanned image output files were analyzed using DNA-Chip Analyzer (dChip) (www.dchip.org), including conversion to DCP files, normalization and modeling. The gene expression profile of MM.1S cells for each time point of MLN4924 treatment was compared to the profile of control MM.1S cells.

Affymetrix Human Genome U133A Array (hgu133a)
Description
Neural progenitor cells (hNPC) derived from the developing human brain can be expanded in culture and subsequently differentiated into neurons and glia. They provide an interesting source of tissue for both modeling brain development and future cellular replacement therapies. It is becoming clear that hNPC are regionally and temporally specified depending on which brain region they were isolated from and its developmental stage. We show here that hNPC derived from the developing cortex (hNPCCTX) and ventral midbrain (hNPCVM) have similar morphological characteristics and express the progenitor cell marker nestin. However, hNPCCTX cultures were highly proliferative and produced large numbers of neurons, while hNPCVM divided slowly and produced less neurons but more astrocytes. Microarray analysis revealed a similar expression pattern for some stemness markers between the two growing cultures, overlaid with a regionally specific profile that identified some important differentially expressed neurogenic transcription factors. By over expressing one of these, the transcription factor ASCL1, we were able to regain neurogenesis from hNPCVM cultures which produced larger neurons with more neurites than hNPCCTX, but no fully mature dopamine neurons. Thus hNPC are regionally specified and can be induced to undergo neurogenesis following genetic manipulation. While this restores neuronal production with a region specific phenotype, it does not restore full neurochemical maturation which may require additional factors.

Description
Conventional anti-cancer drug screening is typically performed in the absence of accessory cells (e.g. stromal cells) of the tumor microenvironment, which can profoundly alter anti-tumor drug activity. To address this major limitation, we have developed assays (e.g. the tumor cell-specific in vitro bioluminescence imaging (CS-BLI) assay) to selectively quantify tumor cell viability, in presence vs. absence of non-malignant stromal cells or drug treatment. These assays have allowed us to identify that neoplastic cells from diverse malignancies exhibit stroma-induced resistance to different anti-tumor agents. In this analysis, we evaluated the molecular changes triggered in myeloma cells by their in vitro interaction with stromal cells. The transcriptional profile of 3 human multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines (MM.1S, MM.1R, INA-6) co-cultured with stromal cells vs. when cultured alone was characterized by oligonucleotide microarray analysis, using the human U133 plus 2.0 Affymetrix GeneChip.

Description
Hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (H6PD)is the initial component of a pentose phosphate pathway inside the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that generates NADPH for ER enzymes. In liver, H6PD is required for the 11-oxoreductase activity of 11ss-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11ss-HSD1), which converts inactive 11-oxo glucocorticoids to their active 11-hydroxyl counterparts; consequently, H6PD null mice are relatively insensitive to glucocorticoids, exhibiting fasting hypoglycemia, increased insulin sensitivity despite elevated circulating levels of corticosterone, and increased basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in muscles normally enriched in Type II (fast) fibers which have increased glycogen content. They also display a progressive vacuolar myopathy evident after 4 weeks of age.

Description
A lactobacilli dominated microbiota in most pre and post-menopausal women is an indicator of vaginal health. A Nugent scoring system serves as a proxy for determining the ratio of lactobacilli to other vaginal inhabitants where a high score usually represents a diseased state, whilst an intermediate score represents a warning zone. The objective of this double blinded, placebo-controlled crossover study was to evaluate in 14 post-menopausal women with an intermediate score, the effect of vaginal administration of probiotic L. rhamnosus GR-1 and L. reuteri RC-14 on the microbiota and host response. The probiotic treatment did not result in changes to clinical parameters such as dryness, irritation and comfort, compared to when placebo was applied. Analysis using 16S rRNA sequencing and metabolomics profiling revealed that the proportional abundance of Lactobacillus was increased following probiotic administration as compared to placebo, which was weakly associated with an increase in lactate levels. Analysis of host responses by microarray showed the probiotics had an immune-modulatory response and multiplex cytokine analysis showed up-regulation of IL-5. This is the first study to use an interactomic approach for the study of vaginal probiotic administration in post-menopausal women. It shows that in some cases multifaceted approaches are required to detect the subtle trigger molecular changes induced by the host to instillation of probiotic strains.
