The next virtual seminar will be presented by Dr. Irene Bosh Center for Infectious Disease and Vaccine Research (University of Massachusetts Medical School) on October 10, 2003 (this Friday) and many of you may find this a very interesting talk. Individual registration is not needed to participate - just come as you are and bring your lunch if you wish! Below is more information on the location, time and details of the presentation itself and please alert any colleagues, students, and other individuals that may be interested on attending. Event: Virtual Seminar on Genomics and Bioinformatics Date: Friday, October 10, 2003 Time: 11AM-12PM (CDT) Location: 348B Noble Research Center Presented by: Irene Bosch, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Medicine Center for Infectious Disease and Vaccine Research University of Massachusetts Medical School Title: ?Dengue Virus Induces Novel Changes in Gene Expression of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cell? Abstract: Endothelial cells are permissive to dengue virus (DV) infection in vitro, although their importance as targets of DV infection in vivo remains a subject of debate. To analyze the virus-host interaction, we studied the effect of DV infection on gene expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) using differential display RT-PCR (DD), quantitative real time RT-PCR, and Affymetrix oligonucleotide microarrays. DD identified eight differentially expressed cDNAs, including inhibitor of apoptosis-1 (h-IAP1), 2?-5? oligoadenylate synthetase (2?-5? OAS), a 2?-5? oligoadenylate synthetase-like gene (2?-5? OASL), galectin-9 (Gal-9), myxovirus protein A (MxA), regulator of G-protein signaling (RGS2), endothelial and smooth muscle cell-derived neuropilin-like protein (ESDN), and phospholipid scramblase 1 (PLSCR1). Microarray analysis of 22,000 human genes confirmed these findings and identified an additional 269 genes that were induced and 126 that were repressed more than 4-fold after DV infection. Broad functional responses that were activated included the stress, defense, immune, cell adhesion, wounding, inflammatory, and anti-viral pathways. These changes in gene expression were seen after infection of HUVECs with either laboratory-adapted virus or with virus isolated directly from plasma of DV-infected patients. TNF-a, OAS1, and Mx1 genes were induced within the first 8 hours after infection, suggesting a direct effect of DV infection. These global analyses of DV effects on cellular gene expression identify potentially novel mechanisms involved in dengue disease manifestations such as hemostatic disturbance.

The workshop has been scheduled for December 15-19, 2003 (registration deadline December 8, 2003) with the lectures in 348B NRC (9AM-10AM, daily) and the laboratory exercises in 348H NRC (10AM-5PM, daily). Please go to http://microarray.biochem.okstate.edu/workshop.html for additional information and a link to the registration form ( http://microarray.okstate.edu/files/registration_Dec2003.pdf ) which must be completed and FAXed to 405-744-8491. As before, space is limited to the first 6 registrants so please register early. Additional registrants will be place on the waiting list for future workshops. Anyone interested in enrolling for course credit should enroll in Spring 2004 for 1 credit hour of BIOC 6820 (Section 352) using the CID number 10777. As a courtesy to me, would you please send me an email when you register to expedite my communication with you and provide a more accurate headcount (since I do not receive the registration forms directly).
