Gene expression profiling of parkinsonian substantia nigra

Affymetrix HG-Focus array was used to determine a global gene expression profile of clinically and neuropathologically confirmed cases of sporadic Parkinson's disease compared to controls.Major alterations were detected in signal transduction, protein degradation, dopaminergic transmission/metabolism, energy pathways/glycolysis, cell adhesion/cytoskeleton, extracellular matrix components and cell cycle functional classes.

Genome-wide analysis of Crohn's disease and ulcerati...

Gene expression patterns of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) colonic specimens were analyzed using whole-genome microarrays. Healthy control samples were included in order to detect gene expression changes associated with CD or UC. CD and UC samples were also compared in order to identify the molecular mechanisms that distinguish both fenotypes of inflammatory bowel disease.

Global DNA methylation profiling of CD4+ T cells fro...

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic-relapsing autoimmune disease of incompletely understood etiology. Recent evidence strongly supports an epigenetic contribution to the pathogenesis of lupus. To understand the extent and nature of dysregulated DNA methylation in lupus T cells, we performed a genome-wide DNA methylation study in CD4+ T cells from 12 lupus patients and 12 normal healthy controls. Cytosine methylation was quantified in 27,578 CG pairs located within the promoter reg...

Global gene expression profiles in whole blood total...

Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus are characterized by the spontaneous over-expression of interferon(IFN)-induced genes in peripheral blood RNA samples. In the present study, we wanted to study the evolution of the IFN gene signature in the peripheral blood of patients with lupus nephritis, before and after initiation of immunosuppressive therapy.Strikingly, we found that immunosuppressive therapy did not strongly reduce the expression of IFN-induced genes in patients who responded t...

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...

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...
