Publication Open Access FlexiChip package: an universal microarray with a dedicated analysis software for high-thoughput SNPs detection linked to anti-malarial drug resistance.(2009-10-15) Steenkeste, Nicolas; Dillies, Marie-Agnès; Khim, Nimol; Sismeiro, Odile; Chy, Sophy; Lim, Pharath; Crameri, Andreas; Bouchier, Christiane; Mercereau-Puijalon, Odile; Beck, Hans-Peter; Mallika Imwong; มัลลิกา อิ่มวงศ์; Dondorp, Arjen M.; Socheat, Duong; Rogier, Christophe; Coppée, Jean- Yves; Ariey, Frédéric; Steenkeste, Nicolas; Mahidol University. Faculty of Tropical Medicineof practical methods enabling high throughput analysis. Here a new Zip-code array is described, called FlexiChip, linked to a dedicated software program, which largely overcomes this problem. METHODS: Previously published microarray probes detecting single...-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) associated with parasite resistance to anti-malarial drugs (ResMalChip) were adapted for a universal microarray FlexiChip format. To evaluate the overall sensitivity of the FlexiChip package (microarray + software), the resultsPublication Open Access Biomarkers for Refractory Lupus Nephritis: A Microarray Study of Kidney Tissue.(2015-06) Pornpen Tantivitayakul; พรเพ็ญ ตันติวิทยากุล; Thitima Benjachat; ธิติมา เบญจชาติ; Pumipat Tongyoo; ภูมิพัฒน์ ทองอยู่; Poorichaya Somparn; ภูริชญา สมภาร; Nattiya Hirankarn; ณัฏฐิยา หิรัญกาญจน์; Santitham Prom-On; สันติธรรม พรหมอ่อน; Prapaporn Pisitkun; ประภาพร พิสิษฐ์กุล; Asada Leelahavanichkul; อัษฎางศ์ ลีฬหวนิชกุล; Yingyos Avihingsanon; ยิ่งยศ อวิหิงสานนท์; Natavudh Townamchai; ณัฐวุฒิ โตวนำชัย; Yingyos Avihingsanon; ยิ่งยศ อวิหิงสานนท์; Mahidol University.

Faculty of Tropical Medicine. Department of Protozoology, and parasites were harvested from culture after 4 and 24 hours exposure. Global transcriptional changes effected by drug treatment were investigated using DNA microarrays. RESULTS: After a 4 h drug exposure, PN induced a greater degree of transcriptional.... However, PN appears to exert a more rapid response than CQ. The faster action of PN may explain why PN is more efficacious than CQ, particularly against CQ resistant isolates. In agreement with several other microarray studies of drug actionPublication Open Access Determination of whole transcription profiles and specific pathways in invasive ductal breast carcinoma(2013-05-15) Pasra Arnutti; ภัสรา อาณัติ; Manas Kotepui; มนัส โคตรพุ้ย; Wichitra Asanprakit; Phaibul Punyarit; Porntip Chavalitshewinkoon-Petmitr; พรทิพย์ ชวลิตรชีวินกุล เพ็ชรมิตร; Talabporn Harnroongroj; ตรับพร หาญรุ่งโรจน์; Songsak Petmitr; ทรงศักดิ์ เพ็ชรมิตร; Songsak Petmitr; Mahidol University.

Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital. Department of ImmunologyBackground: Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of melioidosis, is a Gram-negative bacterium widely distributed in soil and water in endemic areas. This soil saprophyte can survive harsh environmental conditions, even in soils where herbicides (containing superoxide generators) are abundant. Sigma factor E (σE) is a key regulator of extra-cytoplasmic stress response in Gram-negative bacteria. In this study, we identified the B. pseudomallei σE regulon and characterized the indirect role that σE plays in the regulation of spermidine, contributing to the successful survival of B. pseudomallei in stressful environments. Results: Changes in the global transcriptional profiles of B. pseudomallei wild type and σE mutant under physiological and oxidative stress (hydrogen peroxide) conditions were determined. We identified 307 up-regulated genes under oxidative stress condition. Comparison of the transcriptional profiles of B. pseudomallei wild type and σE mutant under control or oxidative stress conditions identified 85 oxidative-responsive genes regulated by σE, including genes involved in cell membrane repair, maintenance of protein folding and oxidative stress response and potential virulence factors such as a type VI secretion system (T6SS). Importantly, we identified that the speG gene, encoding spermidine-acetyltransferase, is a novel member of the B. pseudomallei σE regulon. The expression of speG was regulated by σE, implying that σE plays an indirect role in the regulation of physiological level of spermidine to protect the bacteria during oxidative stress. Conclusion: This study identified B. pseudomallei genes directly regulated by σE in response to oxidative stress and revealed the indirect role of σE in the regulation of the polyamine spermidine (via regulation of speG) for bacterial cell protection during oxidative stress. This study provides new insights into the regulatory mechanisms by which σE contributes to the survival of B. pseudomallei under stressful conditions.Publication Open Access Increased alpha-defensin expression is associated with risk of coronary heart disease: a feasible predictive inflammatory biomarker of coronary heart disease in hyperlipidemia patients(2016) Yaowapa Maneerat; Kriengchai Prasongsukarn; Surachet Benjathummarak; Wilanee Dechkhajorn; Urai Chaisri; Mahidol University.
