Project description:Helminth infection may have the potential to suppress intestinal inflammation in inflammatory bowel diseases. Ulcerative colitis is more common in developed countries than in developing countries endemic for helminth infections. There are animal models, as well as clinical trials, suggesting therapeutic effects of experimental helminth infection. Here, we provide a comprehensive molecular portrait of dynamic changes in the intestinal mucosa of an individual who infected himself with Trichuris trichiura to treat his symptoms of ulcerative colitis. Genes involved in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism were upregulated in helminth-colonized tissue, while tissues with active colitis showed upregulation of proinflammatory genes such as IL-17, IL13RA2, and CHI3L1. T. trichiura colonization of the intestine may reduce symptomatic colitis by promoting goblet cell hyperplasia and mucus production through TH2 cytokines and IL-22. By better understanding the physiological effects of helminth infection, new therapies for ulcerative colitis could be identified. This is the third (out of three) series of arrays from this patient from a colonoscopy in 2009 when the patient was in remission. We analyzed 12 HEEBO arrays on which were hybridized RNA amplified from pinch biopsies collected from different regions of the colon. 4 samples were from the ascending colon, which was colonized by worms at the time. 3 samples were from the transverse colon, which appeared normal at the time. 3 samples were from the recto-sigmoid colon, which had recovered from colitis at the time. 2 samples were from the terminal ileum, which was unaffected by worms or colitis.

This is the first (out of three) series of arrays from this patient from a colonoscopy in 2007 when the patient had mild proctitis in the rectum and worms in the ascending and transverse colon. We analyzed 14 HEEBO arrays on which were hybridized RNA amplified from pinch biopsies collected from different regions of the colon. 3 samples were from the ascending colon, which was colonized by worms at the time. 2 samples were from the transverse colon, which was also colonized by worms at the time. 4 samples were from the sigmoid colon, which appeared normal at the time. 3 samples were from the rectum, which showed signs of proctitis and was inflamed at the time. 2 samples were from the terminal ileum, which was unaffected by worms or colitis.

This is the second (out of three) series of arrays from this patient from a colonoscopy in 2008 when the patient was suffering from severe colitis but still had worms in the ascending colon. We analyzed 12 HEEBO arrays on which were hybridized RNA amplified from pinch biopsies collected from different regions of the colon. 4 samples were from the ascending colon, which was colonized by worms at the time. 4 samples were from the transverse colon, which was no longer colonized by worms at the time. 4 samples were from the recto-sigmoid colon, which was suffering from severe colitis at the time.

Project description:Infection with dengue viruses (DENVs) leads to a spectrum of disease outcomes. The pathophysiology of severe versus non-severe manifestations of DENV infection may be driven by host responses, which could be reflected in the transcriptional profiles of peripheral blood immune cells. We conducted genome-wide microarray analysis of whole blood RNA from 34 DENV-infected children in Nicaragua collected on days 3–6 of illness, with different disease manifestations. Gene expression analysis identified genes that are differentially regulated between clinical subgroups. The most striking transcriptional differences were observed between dengue patients with and without shock, especially in the expression of mitochondrial ribosomal proteins associated with protein biosynthesis. In the dengue hemorrhagic fever patients, one subset of differentially expressed genes encode neutrophil-derived anti-microbial peptides associated with innate immunity. We analyzed 44 HEEBO arrays on which were hybridized RNA amplified from whole blood collected into PAXgene tubes. 34 samples were collected from DENV-infected patients who presented between days 3-6 of illness. Six convalescent samples collected 14-19 days after onset of symptoms were from two dengue fever patients, one dengue hemorrhagic fever patient and three dengue shock syndrome patients. Additionally, samples from four normal healthy individuals were also analyzed.

Project description:Chromatin modifications are increasingly recognized as a key mechanism in cancer. The histone methyl-transferase Enhancer of Zeste, Drosophila, Homolog 2 (EZH2) is the enzymatic subunit of the polycomb PRC2 complex and methylates histone H3K27, thereby, mediating gene silencing. Down-regulation of EZH2 by RNA interference in ET suppressed oncogenic transformation, tumor development and metastasis in a respective mouse model. Further microarray analysis of EZH2 knock down, or functionally linked HDAC-inhibitor treatment revealed an undifferentiated reversible phenotype in ET maintained by EZH2. EZH2 suppression resulted in a generalized loss of H3K27me3 as well as an increase in H3 acetylation levels. In addition, ChIP-Chip assays for H3K27me3 identified genes that had specifically lost H3K27me3 upon EZH2 silencing. These findings suggested that stemness features are preserved via epigenetic mechanisms. Taken together, the genetic EWS-Fli1 translocation is intimately linked to global and gene specific epigenetic alterations in ET biology. EZH2 mediates neuroectodermal and endothelial embryonal tumor stem cell growth and metastasic spread induced by a translocation derived chimeric transcription factor. Keywords: PNET, Ewing Tumor Epigenetic regulation A673 transiently transfected with siRNA-EZH2 and siRNA-scrambled were harvested and Chromatin-IPs of H3K27me3 or H3 followed by microarray hybridisation were carried out. For detailed procedures see Burdach et al. Epigenetic Maintenance of Stemness and Malignancy in Peripheral Neuroectodermal Tumors by EZH2.

Project description:keywords: murine bone marrow-derived macrophages response to Histoplasma capsulatum yeast infection In order to gain a better understanding of the macrophage response to infection with H. capsulatum, an intracellular fungal pathogen, we conducted a microarray timecourse analysis of gene expression in bone marrow-derived macrophages infected with H. capsulatum yeasts. The H. capsulatum gene CBP1 is required for virulence in animals, and is also necessary for macrophage lysis. Cbp1 protein is secreted, thus we hypothesized that it may interfere with macrophage signaling and/or gene expression. To test this, we compared macrophage gene expression profiles following infection with wild-type or cbp1 mutant yeasts. Additionally, we infected with UV-treated yeasts, which are phagocytosed and quickly degraded in the macrophage. Immediately following infection with either live, UV-treated, or cbp1 mutant yeasts, we observed a canonical inflammatory response signature from 1-3 hpi. At later time points following infection, we observe upregulation of several genes, including the pseudo-kinase Tribbles homolog 3, that have been linked to stress response and cell death in other cell types. The expression of these genes is dependent on CBP1, suggesting that this infection regulon may cause or respond to the initiation of a lytic program. Bone marrow-derived macrophages were isolated from 8 week-old female C57BL/6 mice and either mock-infected, or infected with live H. capsulatum yeasts (strain G217B), UV-treated yeasts, or yeasts harboring an insertion in the gene encoding the virulence factor CBP1. At various time points following infection, we isolated macrophage total RNA and subjected to RNA amplification to generate aRNA. aRNAs were hybed to 64 MEEBO arrays.
