Description
Pompe disease is a genetic disorder resulting from a deficiency of lysosomal acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) that manifests as a clinical spectrum with regard to symptom severity and rate of progression. In this study, we used microarrays to examine gene expression from the muscle of two cohorts of infantile-onset Pompe patients to identify transcriptional differences that may contribute to the disease phenotype. We found strong similarities among the gene expression profiles generated from biceps and quadriceps, and identified a number of signaling pathways altered in both cohorts. We also found that infantile-onset Pompe patient muscle had a gene expression pattern characteristic of immature or regenerating muscle, and exhibited many transcriptional markers of inflammation, despite having few overt signs of inflammatory infiltrate. Further, we identified genes exhibiting correlation between expression at baseline and response to therapy. This combined dataset can serve as a foundation for biological discovery and biomarker development to improve the treatment of Pompe disease.

Description
Macrophages are a heterogeneous cell type implicated in injury, repair, and fibrosis after AKI, but the macrophage population associated with each phase is unclear.results of this study in a renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model allow phenotype and function to be assigned to CD11b+/Ly6C+ monocyte/macrophage populations in the pathophysiology of disease after AKI.

Description
Epigenetic changes accompany tumorigenesis and are required for tumor maintenance. Modulation of DNA methylation state, histone acetylation, and histone methylation, as well as reversal of disease-associated epigenetic state aberrations, can be disruptive to malignant disease progression. We produced lipophilic prodrugs of decitabine, which is a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor and is efficacious in treatment of myelodysplastic syndromes when dosed subcutaneously. Comparison of parent and prodrug activities in vitro and in vivo revealed comparable effects and unveiled several novel features of nucleoside analog molecular activity in vitro.
