Key regulators of septum formation between the left and right ventricle in mammals, including the transcription factors TXB5 and PITX2, feature loss-of-function phenotypes that affect development of the two-chambered zebrafish heart, suggesting

View Samples3 subtypes of cortical projection neurons were purified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) at 4 different stages of development from mouse cortex. A detailed description of the data set is described in Arlotta, P et al (2005) and Molyneaux, BJ et al (2009). The hybridization cocktails used here were originally applied to the Affymetrix mouse 430A arrays and submitted as GEO accession number GSE2039. The same hybridization cocktails were then applied to the Affymetrix mouse 430 2.0 arrays, and those data are contained in this series.

View SamplesPTEN imparts tumor suppression in mice by cell autonomous and non-autonomous mechanisms. Whether these two tumor suppressor roles are mediated through similar or distinct signaling pathways is not known. Here we generated and analyzed knockin mice that express a series of human cancer-derived mutant alleles of PTEN in either stromal or tumor cell compartments of mammary glands. We find that cell non-autonomous tumor suppression by Pten in stromal fibroblasts strictly requires activation of P-Akt signaling, whereas cell autonomous tumor suppression in epithelial tumor cells is independent of overt canonical pathway activation

View SamplesMutations of the transcriptional regulator Mecp2 cause the X-linked autism spectrum disorder Rett syndrome (RTT), and Mecp2 has been implicated in several other neurodevelopmental disorders. To identify potential target genes regulated directly or indirectly by MeCP2, we performed comparative gene expression analysis via oligonucleotide microarrays on Mecp2-/y (Mecp2-null) and wild-type CPN purified via fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS).
Reduction of aberrant NF-κB signalling ameliorates Rett syndrome phenotypes in Mecp2-null mice.

View SamplesFollowing neural tube closure at around E9.5, the rhombic lip within the rhombomere 1/isthmus region ("upper rhombic lip") produces a sequence of neuronal lineages that populate the brainstem and cerebellum. The transcription factor Atoh1 (Math1) is required for this specialized neurogenesis, although the genetic programs that delineate the temporal cell fate changes downstream of Atoh1 are not well characterized. We examined the gene expresion changes that take place within Atoh1 lineages

View SamplesThe goal of the study was to identify on a genome-wide scale RNAs that are enriched at the leading edge of migrating cells. For this, we employed a fractionation method in which cells are plated on a microporous filter whose bottom side only is coated with fibronectin. The cells thus polarize and extend pseudopodial protrusions towards the bottom surface. These protruding pseudopodia can then be physically isolated from the bottom surface of the filter and their contents compared with the remaining cell bodies, which are isolated from the upper surface of the filter.

View SamplesObjective: Otitis media is known to alter expression of cytokine and other genes in the mouse middle ear and inner ear. However, whole mouse genome studies of gene expression in otitis media have not previously been undertaken. Ninety-nine percent of mouse genes are shared in the human, so these studies are relevant to the human condition.
