Similarities and differences in the transcriptome of...
Phenotypic and functional diversity between macrophage subpopulations reflects their plasticity to respond to microenvironmental signals. Apart from detecting differences in expression profiles, the comparison of the transcriptomes of different macrophage populations may also allow the definition of molecular similarities between these subsets.Transcriptome analysis of human Kuppfer cells, alveolar, splenic and atherosclerotic plaque residing macrophages using microarrays, identified 42 genes...

HT-project: Expression profiling after prolonged exp...
Febrile seizures are the most prevalent type of seizures among children up to 5 years of age (2-4% of Western-European children). Complex febrile seizures are associated with an increased risk to develop temporal lobe epilepsy. To investigate short- and long-term effects of experimental febrile seizures (eFS), we induced eFS in highly febrile convulsion-susceptible C57BL/6J mice at post-natal day 10 by exposure to hyperthermia (HT) and compared them to normotherm-exposed (NT) mice. We detecte...

Airway epithelial gene expression in asthma versus h...
Airway epithelial brushings were obtained for microarray analysis by research bronchoscopy in 62 subjects with mild-to-moderate asthma not on inhaled steroids and 43 healthy controls. Asthma subjects were stratified into 2 subgroups, Th2 high and Th2 low asthma, based on their expression of a three-gene signature of Type 2 inflammation: POSTN, SERPINB2, and CLCA1.

Hippocampal gene expression signature following infl...
We used a systemic inflammatory challenge in animals with chronic mesial temporal lobe epilepsy to identify novel molecular pathways involved in seizure regulation. Mice were first rendered epileptic by a single intrahippocampal injection of kainic acid (KA). After a period of two-three weeks, mice developed spontaneous seizures and then received a single intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to mimic systemic inflammation, or saline as a control. Gene expression analysis by m...

Whole genome transcription and DNA methylation analy...
Our study has demonstrated that significant number of differential genes in SLE was involved in IFN, TLR signaling pathways and inflammatory cytokines. The enrichment of differential genes has been associated with aberrant DNA methylation, which may be relevant to the pathogenesis of SLE. Our observations laid the groundwork for further diagnostic and mechanistic studies of SLE and LN.

Normal donor blood was incubated with or without IFN-g stimulation to establish an IFN-g gene signature. Systemic lupus erythematosus subjects were treated with placebo or AMG 811, a therapeutic anti-IFN--g antibody, and changes in the IFN--g signature in whole blood of these subjects was measured.
