Contributors : Bo Lv ; Chaojie LiuSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Mus musculusWe adopt mouse pre-implantation embryos to evaluate the effects of different exposure time and illumination intensity. The damage-causing time and intensity is chosen to treat embryos at 2-cell stage. Single-cell transcriptomes from 2-cell to blastocyst stage are analyzed under both control and high-intensity light conditions. These data show that embryo cells at each embryonic...

Oocytes and blastocysts recovered from animals subjected to ovarian stimulation and from abattoir ovaries were analyzed using bisulphite transformation of DNA followed by whole genome sequencing.

Contributors : Clifton L Dalgard ; Harvey B PollardSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Rattus norvegicusWe have previously reported that the cardenolide drug digitoxin blocks TNFα/NFκB-driven proinflammatory signaling. We therefore hypothesized that digitoxin might break the collaborative process between NFκB and TGFβ by also inhibiting expression of TGFBR2. We therefore tested whether TGFβ-driven EMT and resulting metastases would be suppressed.
Contributors : J E Fish ; N KhyzhaSeries Type : Non-coding RNA profiling by arrayOrganism : Homo sapiensThe purpose of this study was to identify long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that are dysregulated during vascular inflammation and contribute to mRNA regulation. Previous studies have suggested that many lncRNAs interact with protein complexes to regulate their neighboring mRNAs. Therefore, we performed the Human LncRNA Expression Microarray V3.0 (Arraystar) to simultaneously profile the expression...

The time window of astrocyte morphological development is well defined, but the molecular underpinnings are still unclear. BDNF is a critical growth factor involved in the development of the CNS, including synapse refinement. Here we demonstrate the BDNF receptor at Ntrk2 is enriched...
Contributors : Tyler A Allen ; Jeffrey AYoder ; Xinxia PengSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Mus musculusMetastasis accounts for the majority of all cancer deaths, yet the process remains poorly understood. A pivotal step in the metastasis process is the exiting of tumor cells from the circulation, a process known as extravasation. However, it is unclear how tumor cells extravasate, and if multicellular clusters of tumor cells posses the ability to exit...

ABSTRACT The excessive sun exposure, coupled with lack of sun protection represents one of the biggest risks to the occurrence of skin cancer and photoaging. Recent strategies for photoprotection have included the incorporation of natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds, into sunscreens, and the oral administration of natural antioxidant extracts. In this work, we use Brazilian red propolis extract because its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. The aim of this work was to evaluate...

Skin cancers are relatively rare in patients with skin of color; however, they are an important public health concern because of disparities in patient outcomes. Gaps in skin cancer knowledge exist because of lack of large-scale studies involving people of color, and limitations in data collection methods and skin classification paradigms. Additional research is needed to address questions regarding risk and reasons for disparate skin cancer outcomes in these patients. We summarize the clinical and...
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare but aggressive skin cancer associated with the Merkel cell Polyomavirus. Its incidence and mortality are increasing. There have been many advances in the last several decades in the etiology, detection, and management of MCC, but much about its natural history and most effective treatment remains unknown. Surgical excision with margins of 1 to 2 cm remains first-line therapy for early-stage MCC, but robust evidence supporting immunotherapy for patients with advanced...

In this study, we use in vivo zebrafish and mouse models to elucidate the mechanism tumor cells use to extravasate. We found that circulating tumor cells exit the circulation using the recently identified extravasation mechanism, angiopellosis, and do as both clusters and individual cells. We further show that when melanoma and cervical cancer cells utilize this extravasation method to exit as clusters, they exhibit an increased ability to form tumor at distant sites through the expression of unique...

We read with interest the letter to the Editor by Gagat et al. on the ambiguous role of special AT-rich sequence-binding protein-1 (SATB1) expression in malignant tumors (Gagat et al., 2019). The authors make a strong point that miR-155/SATB1 axis contributes to apoptosis resistance not only in malignant T cells, but is also critical in regulating cell death in wide range of cell lines from hematologic malignancies to solid tumors. Among other findings, the authors report that low SATB1 expression...
