BACKGROUND: Microvesicles (MVs) packaged with microribonucleic acids (miRNAs) have been shown to be released mainly from tumor cells. However, little information is known for miRNAs from MVs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Hence, we explored the MVs' miRNAs expression profiles in HCC. METHODS: MVs were collected from peripheral blood of HCC, chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and normal controls. miRNA from MVs were labeled and analyzed by Agilent miRNA microarry. Bioinformatics tools were used to analyze function of the differentially expressed MVs' miRNAs...

Infused (transplanted) green fluorescent protein (GFP)-positive bone marrow cells (BMCs) migrated into the peri-portal regions of the cirrhotic mouse liver induced continuous CCl4 injection without irradiation (without bone marrow ablation). The infused GFP-positive BMCs differentiated into hepatoblasts detected with Liv2-antibody and then differentiated into albumin-producing hepatocytes. The differentiation "niche" induced by persistent liver damage due to continuous CCl4 injection seems to be an essential factor...

A novel DNA microarrying platform based on oxygen plasma activation of polycarbonate surface of compact disks (DVD) is presented. Carboxylic acid groups are generated in few seconds on polycarbonate in an efficient, fast, and clean way. Following this surface activation strategy, amino-modified oligonucleotide probes were covalently attached, reaching an immobilization density of 2 pmol cm(-2). Atomic force microscopy imaging revealed the nondestructive character of this treatment when applied for short times, allowing for disk scanning in standard DVD drives...

PURPOSE: Alpha-methyl CoA racemase (AMACR) is used as an immunohistochemical marker for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) subtyping to distinguish papillary (pap) RCC. Expression of AMACR in other renal tumor subtypes is inhomogeneous, and the clinical and prognostic value of AMACR is unknown. The aim of this study was to asses AMACR protein expression in different RCC subtypes and to investigate its prognostic significance. METHODS: Protein expression of AMACR was analyzed in 1,088 renal tumor samples, among them 809 clear cell RCC and 151 papRCC, by immunohistochemistry using tissue microarry (TMA) technique...

BACKGROUND: Down syndrome (DS; trisomy 21) is the most common genetic cause of mental retardation in the human population and key molecular networks dysregulated in DS are still unknown. Many different experimental techniques have been applied to analyse the effects of dosage imbalance at the molecular and phenotypical level, however, currently no integrative approach exists that attempts to extract the common information. RESULTS: We have performed a statistical meta-analysis from 45 heterogeneous publicly available DS data sets in order to identify consistent dosage effects from these studies...

BACKGROUND: Microarray technology has become a widely used tool in the biological sciences. Over the past decade, the number of users has grown exponentially, and with the number of applications and secondary data analyses rapidly increasing, we expect this rate to continue. Various initiatives such as the External RNA Control Consortium (ERCC) and the MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC) project have explored ways to provide standards for the technology. For microarrays to become generally accepted as a reliable technology, statistical methods for assessing quality will be an indispensable component; however, there remains a lack of consensus in both defining and measuring microarray quality...

In developing an integrated framework for translational bioinformatics, we consider bioimaging in the NIH Roadmap that exploits high-resolution genomic imaging for clinical applications to the diagnosis and treatment of genetic disorders/diseases. On one hand, we develop new image processing techniques, while on the other, we use the fusion of several well known ontological standards - Gene Ontology (GO), Clinical Bioinformatics Ontology (CBO), Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA) and Microarry Gene Expression Data Ontology (MGED) in this framework...

The aim of this study was to analyse various gene expression profiles of muscle tissue during normoxia, ischaemia and after reperfusion in human muscle free flaps, to gain an understanding of the occurring regulatory, inflammatory and apoptotic processes on a cellular and molecular basis. Eleven Caucasian patients with soft tissue defects needing coverage with microsurgical free muscle flaps were included in this study. In all patients, the muscle samples were taken from free myocutaneous flaps. The first sample was taken before induction of ischaemia in normoxia (I), another one after ischaemia (II), and the last one was taken after reperfusion (III)...

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells at relapse are frequently more resistant to treatment than primary clones and this may be caused by further genetic changes in the ALL cells at relapse. These acquired genomic abnormalities have not been fully characterized. To examine the additional genomic alterations of ALL at relapse, we performed single nucleotide polymorphism genomic microarry (SNP-chip) analysis on 14 ALL bone marrow samples at initial diagnosis, remission and relapse. Only two cases at initial diagnosis had a normal appearing genome by SNP-chip...

AIM: Intractable epilepsy is characterized of seizure resistance to the anti-epileptic drugs. The underlying mechanisms are still elusive. Alterations of synaptic vesicle traffic may be one of the candidate mechanisms. METHODS: Phenytoin-resistant and phenytoin-non resistant epileptic rats were selected in the amygdala kindled adult male Wistar rats. Synaptotagmin-I and clathrin were determined by cDNA microarry analysis and Western blotting in the hippocampus of phenytoin-resistant and phenytoin-nonresistant kindled rats, which were associated with the exocytosis and endocytosis of the synaptic vesicle traffic...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are the main components of emissions generated by coke oven factories and many of these chemicals are carcinogenic. The goal of this study was to examine changes in gene expression in two human cell lines, HepG2 and A549, induced by exposure to a soil extract containing PAH using microarry technology. Soil samples were obtained from the vicinity of a coke oven factory in northeastern Mexico. For comparison, the gene expression pattern induced by Benz[a]pyrene (BaP) was also analyzed...

BACKGROUND: Temperature and salt concentration are very helpful experimental conditions for a probe to hybridize uniquely to its intended target. In large families of closely related target sequences, the high degree of similarity makes it impossible to find a unique probe for every target. We studied how to select a minimum set of non-unique probes to identify the presence of at most d targets in a sample where each non-unique probe can hybridize to a set of targets. RESULTS: We proposed efficient algorithms based on Integer Linear Programming to select a minimum number of non-unique probes using d-disjunct matrices...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the gene expression pattern of human keratinocytes (KCs) after arotinoid trometamol (AT) treatment. METHODS: Human keratinocytes (KCs) of the line HaCat were cultured. AT (10(-6) mol/L) was added in the culture fluid for 24 h. A gene chip containing 4000 cDNA clones was used to identify the differentially expressed genes in the HaCat cells, and then the results were verified by real-time PCR. RESULTS: Gene chip hybridization showed that 580 of the 4000 full-length human cDNA exhibited differential expression (>or= 2-fold); 253 genes with complete annotation were identified, including 143 genes up-regulated and 110 genes down-regulated...
