In order to develop efective cancer vaccines, detailed knowledge of the micromilieu in cancer lesions is warranted. In this study, fow cytometry and human transcriptome arrays were used to characterize subsets of DCs in head and neck squamous cell tonsillar cancer and compare them to their counterparts in benign tonsils to evaluate subset- selective biomarkers associated with tonsillar cancer. We describe, for the frst time, four subsets of DCs in tonsillar cancer: CD123+ plasmacytoid DCs (pDC), CD1c+, CD141+, and CD1c−CD141− myeloid DCs (mDC). An increased frequency of DCs and an elevated mDC/pDC ratio were shown in malignant compared to benign tonsillar tissue. The microarray data demonstrates characteristics specifc for tonsil cancer DC subsets, including expression of immunosuppressive molecules and lower expression levels of genes involved in development of efector immune responses in DCs in malignant tonsillar tissue, compared to their counterparts in benign tonsillar tissue. Finally, we present target candidates selectively expressed by diferent DC subsets in malignant tonsils and confrm expression of CD206/ MRC1 and CD207/Langerin on CD1c+ DCs at protein level. This study descibes DC characteristics in the context of head and neck cancer and add valuable steps towards future DC-based therapies against tonsillar cancer.

Crawford 3,17 1234567890():,; Schizophrenia genome-wide association studies have identified >150 regions of the genome associated with disease risk, yet there is little evidence that coding mutations contribute to this disorder. To explore the mechanism of non-coding regulatory elements in schizophrenia, we performed ATAC-seq on adult prefrontal cortex brain samples from 135 individuals with schizophrenia and 137 controls, and identified 118,152 ATAC-seq peaks. These accessible chromatin regions in the brain are highly enriched for schizophrenia SNP heritability. Accessible chromatin regions that overlap evolutionarily conserved regions exhibit an even higher heritability enrichment, indicating that sequence conservation can further refine functional risk variants. We identify few differences in chromatin accessibility between cases and controls, in contrast to thousands of age-related differential accessible chromatin regions. Altogether, we characterize chromatin accessibility in the human prefrontal cortex, the effect of schizophrenia and age on chromatin accessibility, and provide evidence that our dataset will allow for fine mapping of risk variants. 1 Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Karolinska Institutet, SE-17177 Stockholm, Sweden.

Genome Medicine 2014, 6:98 http://genomemedicine.com/content/6/11/98 RESEARCH Open Access Transcriptional fingerprints of antigen-presenting cell subsets in the human vaginal mucosa and skin reflect tissue-specific immune microenvironments Dorothée Duluc1†, Romain Banchereau1†, Julien Gannevat1, Luann Thompson-Snipes1, Jean-Philippe Blanck1, Sandra Zurawski1, Gerard Zurawski1, Seunghee Hong1, Jose Rossello-Urgell1, Virginia Pascual1, Nicole Baldwin1, Jack Stecher2, Michael Carley2, Muriel Boreham2 and SangKon Oh1* Abstract Background: Dendritic cells localize throughout the body, where they can sense and capture invading pathogens to induce protective immunity. Hence, harnessing the biology of tissue-resident dendritic cells is fundamental for the rational design of vaccines against pathogens. Methods: Herein, we characterized the transcriptomes of four antigen-presenting cell subsets from the human vagina (Langerhans cells, CD14- and CD14+ dendritic cells, macrophages) by microarray, at both the transcript and network level, and compared them to those of three skin dendritic cell subsets and blood myeloid dendritic cells. Results: We found that genomic fingerprints of antigen-presenting cells are significantly influenced by the tissue of origin as well as by individual subsets. Nonetheless, CD14+ populations from both vagina and skin are geared towards innate immunity and pro-inflammatory responses, whereas CD14- populations, particularly skin and vaginal Langerhans cells, and vaginal CD14- dendritic cells, display both Th2-inducing and regulatory phenotypes. We also identified new phenotypic and functional biomarkers of vaginal antigen-presenting cell subsets. Conclusions: We provide a transcriptional database of 87 microarray samples spanning eight antigen-presenting cell populations in the human vagina, skin and blood. Altogether, these data provide molecular information that will further help characterize human tissue antigen-presenting cell lineages and their functions.

On the basis of these functional data, comparative studies were carried out on the gene expression profile of cells infected with HSV-1 and/or C. albicans in order to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying such virus-induced dysfunction. Affymetrix GeneChip technology was used to evaluate the cell transcription pattern, focusing on genes involved in phagocytosis, fungal adhesion, antimicrobial activity and apoptosis.

Cytokines imbalance in COVID-19 resembles cancer; exploration of anti-inflammatory agents, might reduce COVID-19 mortality. The current study investigates the effect of ruxolitinib treatment in SARS-CoV-2 infected alveolar cells compared to the uninfected one from the GSE5147507 dataset. The protein-protein interaction network, biological process and functional enrichment of differentially expressed genes were studied using STRING App of the Cytoscape software and R programming tools. The present study indicated that ruxolitinib treatment elicited similar response equivalent to that of SARS-CoV-2 uninfected situation by inducing defense response in host against virus infection by RLR and NOD like receptor pathways. Further, the effect of ruxolitinib in SARS- CoV-2 infection was mainly caused by significant suppression of IFIH1, IRF7 and MX1 genes as well as inhibition of DDX58/IFIH1-mediated induction of interferon- I and -II signalling.

  • Network Mining Approach to Cancer Biomarker Discovery
    NETWORK MINING APPROACH TO CANCER BIOMARKER DISCOVERY THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Praneeth Uppalapati, B.E. Graduate Program in Computer Science and Engineering The Ohio State University 2010 Thesis Committee: Dr. Kun Huang, Advisor Dr. Raghu Machiraju Copyright by Praneeth Uppalapati 2010 ABSTRACT With the rapid development of high throughput gene expression profiling technology, molecule profiling has become a powerful tool to characterize disease subtypes and discover gene signatures. Most existing gene signature discovery methods apply statistical methods to select genes whose expression values can differentiate different subject groups. However, a drawback of these approaches is that the selected genes are not functionally related and hence cannot reveal biological mechanism behind the difference in the patient groups. Gene co-expression network analysis can be used to mine functionally related sets of genes that can be marked as potential biomarkers through survival analysis. We present an efficient heuristic algorithm EigenCut that exploits the properties of gene co- expression networks to mine functionally related and dense modules of genes. We apply this method to brain tumor (Glioblastoma Multiforme) study to obtain functionally related clusters. If functional groups of genes with predictive power on patient prognosis can be identified, insights on the mechanisms related to metastasis in GBM can be obtained and better therapeutical plan can be developed. We predicted potential biomarkers by dividing the patients into two groups based on their expression profiles over the genes in the clusters and comparing their survival outcome through survival analysis.
