Transcription profiling of mouse GPI-deficient bone marrow cells in a mouse model of targeted Pig-a deletion

ABSTRACT: Somatic mutation in the X-linked phosphatidylinositol glycan class A (PIG-A) gene causes glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor deficiency in humans with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). Clinically, patients with PNH have intravascular hemolysis, venous thrombosis and bone marrow failure. We produced a conditional Pig-a knock-out mouse model specifically inactivating the Pig-a gene in hematopoietic cells to study the role of PIG-A deficiency in PNH pathophysiology. We used Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 chips to investigate the gene expression pattern in the mouse model of targeted Pig-a deletion. Experiment Overall Design: We performed microarray analysis on 3 pools of sorted GPI-deficient (GPI-) and GPI normal (GPI+) bone marrow cells derived from the same Pig-a knock-out animals, and identified 1275/669 genes of the 45,101 transcripts potentially available for screening using 2-fold change, <10% false discovery rate (FDR) and percentage of present calls as selection criteria. The major representative genes belong to the category of immune response. We tested whether the molecular differences between GPI- and GPI+ bone marrow cells could be preserved when GPI- cells were transplanted in lethally-irradiated wild type mice (C57BL/6). Microarray analysis was performed using sorted bone marrow cells from 4 animals transplanted with GPI-deficient bone marrow cells (T-GPI-) from Pig-a knock-out donors, 3 animals transplanted with GPI-normal bone marrow cells from C57BL/6 donors (T-GPI+), and GPI-normal bone marrow cells from 4 wild-type C57BL/6 mice (WT-GPI+). We found 296 probesets with 2-fold change cutoff, of which T-GPI- cells had 145 up-regulated genes in comparison to WT-GPI+ cells, and had 123 genes differentially expressed when compared to T-GPI+ cells. The gene expression of the GPI-deficient cells was very similar between the two sets of microarray experiments affirming the maintenance of the phenotype before and after bone marrow cell transplantation.

Project description:To investigate the pathological effect of miR-126 on the progression of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) induced by AML1-ETO9a (AE9a), we conducted a series of mouse bone marrow transplantation (BMT) assays with the following groups: AE9a (primary donor cells were wild-type mouse bone marrow progenitor (i.e., lineage negative; Lin-) cells retrovirally transduced with MSCV-PIG-AE9a), AE9a+miR-126 (primary donor cells were wild-type mouse bone marrow progenitor (i.e., Lin-) cells retrovirally transduced with MSCV-PIG-AE9a-miR-126), and miR-126KO+AE9a (primary donor cells were miR-126 knockout mouse bone marrow progenitor (i.e., Lin-) cells retrovirally transduced with MSCV-PIG-AE9a), along with a control group (primary donor cells were wild-type mouse bone marrow progenitor (i.e., Lin-) cells retrovirally transduced with MSCV-PIG empty vector). The control group was only used in the primary and secondary BMT assays, whereas the three leukemic groups including AE9a, AE9a+miR-126 and miR-126KO+AE9a were used in four passages (i.e., primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary) of BMT assays. Then, gene expression profiling was conducted with bone marrow samples collected from different groups to decipher the molecular mechanisms underlying miR-126 effects on leukemia initiation and progression and maintenance and self-renewal of leukemia stem/initiating cells. A total of 39 mouse bone marrow samples including 36 mouse AML samples with AE9a, AE9a+miR-126, and miR-126KO+AE9a collected from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th passages of BMT recipient mice (3 mice for each group in each passage), along with 3 normal controls from the 1st passage of BMT, were analyzed by use of Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array (Affymetirx, Santa Clara, CA). For each sample, the CD45.1+ cells (i.e., transplanted donor cells) were sorted with flow cytometry from whole BM cells collected from BMT recipient mice at the end stage. Then total RNA was isolated by use of miRNeasy extraction kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA).
