Description
Exercise attenuates the development of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Gene signaling pathway analysis offers an opportunity to discover if electrically induced muscle exercise regulates key pathways among people living with spinal cord injury (SCI). We examined short-term and long-term durations of electrically induced skeletal muscle exercise on complex gene signaling pathways, specific gene regulation, and epigenetic tagging of PGC1a, a major transcription factor in skeletal muscle of men with SCI. After short or long-term electrically induced exercise training, participants underwent biopsies of the trained and untrained muscles. RNA was hybridized to an exon microarray and analyzed using a gene set enrichment analysis. We discovered that long-term exercise training regulated the Reactome gene sets for Metabolism (38 gene sets), Cell Cycle (36 gene sets), Disease (27 gene sets), Gene Expression and Transcription (22 gene sets), Organelle Biogenesis (4 gene sets), Cellular Response to Stimuli (8 gene sets), Immune System (8 gene sets), Vesicle Mediated Transport (4 gene sets), and Transport of Small Molecules (3 gene sets). Specific gene expression included: Oxidative catabolism of glucose including PDHB (p<0.001), PDHX (p<0.001), MPC1 (p<0.009), and MPC2 (p<0.007); Oxidative phosphorylation genes including SDHA (p<0.006), SDHB (p<0.001), NDUFB1 (p<0.002), NDUFA2 (p<0.001); Transcription Genes including PGC1α (p<0.030) and PRKAB2 (p<0.011); Hypertrophy gene MSTN (p<0.001); and the Myokine generating FNDC5 gene (p<0.008). Long-term electrically induced exercise de-methylated the major transcription factor, PGC1a. Taken together, these findings support that long term electrically induced muscle activity regulates key pathways associated with muscle health and systemic metabolism.

Description
We used a novel approach to study the acute effect of three physiologic stressors (active contractions, vibration, and systemic heat stress) in human skeletal muscle. Three hours after the completion of a dose of physiologic stress, we sampled the soleus (contraction and vibration) or vastus lateralis (heat) muscle and developed a unique gene expression signature for each stressor. We discovered repetitive active muscle contractions up regulated metabolic transcription factors NR4A3 (12.45 fold change), PGC-1 (5.46 fold change), and ABRA (5.98 fold change); and repressed MSTN (0.56 fold change). Heat stress repressed PGC-1 (0.74 fold change); while vibration induced FOXK2 (2.36 fold change). Vibration similarly caused a down regulation of MSTN (0.74 fold change), but to a lesser extent than active muscle contraction. Vibration induced FOXK2 while heat stress repressed PGC-1 (0.74 fold change) and ANKRD1 genes (0.51 fold change). These findings support a distinct gene regulation in response to heat stress, vibration, and muscle contractions. Understanding these responses may assist in developing regenerative rehabilitation interventions to improve muscle cell development, growth, and repair.

Description
RNA was isolated from siCTRL, siNSUN2 and ALYREF-RIP HeLa cells, and multiple mouse tissues using the TRIzol (Invitrogen) reagent by following the company manual. Approximately 2.5 µg of total RNA was then used for library preparation using a TruSeq™ RNA Sample Prep Kit v2 (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.The libraries were sequenced using HiSeq3000 (Illumina) or HiSeq2500 in paired-read mode, creating reads with a length of 101 or 125 bp. Sequencing chemistry v2 or v4 (Illumina) was used. Overall design: Examination of gene expressive levels in siCTRL, siNSUN2 and ALYREF-RIP HeLa cells, and multiple mouse tissues

Description
Applied de novo assembly, both protein coding and non-coding RNAs were profiled in AFB1 induced HCC and AFB1 resistant liver sample. Compared with normal liver, the perturbation on transcriptome was revealed in multiple aspects, implying the potential mechanism of toxic resistance. Overall design: All rats were randomly divided into control and treated groups according to their weight. Then AFB1 was injected intraperitoneally to treated group in customized schedule. Biopsy was applied every 10 weeks on both groups. Tissues from rats died of HCC were reserved. All rats were sacrificed at 70th week. According to whether tumor formed, liver tissues from animals in treated group were further divided into AFB1 induced tumor sample and AFB1 resistant sample. Both samples were stored for later transcriptome analysis, as well as the normal sample from control group. RNA profiles of all 3 samples were generated by deep sequencing, using Illumina HiSeq2000 platform.

Description
The growth and fruit quality of grapevine are widely affected by abnormal climatic conditions such as water deficit. But how grapevine responds to drought stress is still largely unknown. Here we found that VaNAC26, a member of NAC transcription factor family, was up-regulated dramatically during cold, drought and salinity treatments in Vitis amurensis, a cold and drought-hardiness wild Vitis species. Ectopic overexpression of VaNAC26 enhanced the drought and salt tolerances in transgenic Arabidopsis. Higher activities of antioxidant enzymes and the lower concentration of H2O2 and O2- were found in VaNAC26-OE lines than in wild type plants under drought stress. These results indicate that the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging was enhanced by VaNAC26 in transgenic lines. Microarray based transcriptome analysis reveals that genes related to jasmonic acid (JA) synthesis and signaling were up-regulated in VaNAC26-OE lines under both normal and drought conditions. VaNAC26 showed a specific binding ability on NACRS motif, which was broadly existent in the promoter regions of up-regulated genes in transgenic lines. Endogenous JA content was found increased obviously in VaNAC26-OE-2/3 lines. Our data suggests that VaNAC26 responds to abiotic stresses and may enhance the drought tolerance by transcriptional regulation of JA synthesis in Arabidopsis.

Description
NK cells are believed to contribute to the control of hepatitis C virus infection and pathogenesis of liver disease. Standard treatment of both acute and chronic hepatitis C is based on the administration of interferon alpha, however, the effects of type I interferons on human NK cells have not been studied in the context of hepatitis C. We therefore first performed a microarray screen for genes differentially regulated in human NK cells after stimulation of PBMC with recombinant interferon alpha-2b. One of the genes upregulated was TRAIL which was confirmed in vitro on the protein level.
