Project description:Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSC) are originated during embryonic development from endothelial-like cells located in the ventral side of the dorsal aorta around day E10-12 of murine development. This region is called AGM for Aorta/Gonad/Mesonephros refering to the tissues around the hemogenic aorta. Hematopoiesis depends on the Notch pathway and the identification of Notch-targets is important for the understanding of blood origin. Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs) specification occurs in the embryonic aorta and requires Notch activation, however which are the elements regulated by Notch that control this process are mainly unknown. Here, we took a genome-wide approach to identify putative direct Notch targets by precipitating the chromatin that binds to the Notch partner RBPj in the Aorta-Gonad-Mesonephros (AGM) tissue from E11.5 mouse embryos. This assay revealed 701 gene promoter regions as candidates to be regulated by Notch in the AGM. Chromatin was obtained from a pool of 40 dissected AGMs at E11.5. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed as previously described (Aguilera et al, PNAS 2004) with minor modifications. In brief, cross-linked chromatin was sonicated for 10 minutes, medium-power, 0.5-interval; with a Bioruptor (Diagenode) and precipitated with anti-RBPJ (Chu and Bresnick, 2004). After crosslinkage reversal, DNA was used as a template for PCR or for array hybridization. Mouse promoter chip on chip microarray SET (Agilent) was used to identify RBPj targets. It covers 70,000 best identified gene regions with a-5.5 kb to + 2.5 kb range, and has on average 25 probes per gene with an average probe to probe distance of 200 bp. The ChIP-on-chip was performed with dye swaps and one IgG control was brought along. Enrichment analysis was done by comparing the precipitation normalized dye swap signal with input control signal.

Project description:The Lhx2 transcription factor plays essential roles in morphogenesis and patterning of ectodermal derivatives, as well as in controlling stem cell activity. Lhx2 is expressed in the hair follicle (HF) buds, while in postnatal telogen HFs Lhx2+ cells reside in the stem cell-enriched epithelial compartments (bulge, secondary hair germ) and co-express selected stem cell markers (Sox9, Tcf4 and Lgr5). Lhx2+ cells represent the vast majority of cells in the bulge and secondary hair germ that proliferate in response to skin injury. This is functionally important, since the wound re-epithelialization is significantly retarded in heterozygous Lhx2 knockout (+/-) mice, while anagen onset in the HFs located closely to the wound is accelerated compared to wild-type mice. Cell proliferation in the bulge and the number of Sox9+ and Tcf4+ cells in the HFs closely adjacent to the wound in Lhx2+/- mice are decreased in comparison to wild-type controls, while expression of Lgr5 and cell proliferation in the secondary hair germ are increased. Furthermore, acceleration of wound-induced anagen development in Lhx2+/- mice is inhibited by administration of Lgr5 siRNA. In addition, Chip-on-chip/ChIP-qPCR and reporter assay analyses reveal Sox9, Tcf4 and Lgr5 as direct Lhx2 targets in keratinocytes. These data strongly suggest that Lhx2 positively regulates Sox9 and Tcf4 in the bulge cells and promotes wound re-epithelization, while it simultaneously negatively regulates Lgr5 in the secondary hair germ and inhibits HF cycling. Thus, Lhx2 operates as a regulator of epithelial stem cell activity during skin response to injury. Chromatin form primary mouse keratinocytes (PMK) was subjected to ChIP analysis with Lhx2 antibody; input and ChIP DNA were labelled with Cy3 and Cy5 respectivly and used form Nimblegen MM8 Mouse Promoter Array

Project description:The transcription factor Sox2 inhibits human gastric cancer growth and activates Sox2-related tumor surpressive genes in human gastric cancer cells. Conditional Sox2-overexpression in cells with a low Sox2 level demonstrated that the Sox2-regulated tumor surpressive genes demand on an enhanced Sox2 activity for better expression to work in human gastric cancer. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of Sox2 together with chromatin profiling by ChIP-on-chip analysis demonstrated that Sox2 directly activates the chromatin at promoters or putative enhancers of Sox2 target genes.

Project description:ERG is a transcription factor that is involved in leukomogenesis and its mRNA overexpression has been associated with poor prognosis in a subset of patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Herein, a genome-wide screen of ERG target genes was conducted by chromatin immunoprecipitation-on-chip (ChIP-chip) in Jurkat cells. 342 significant annotated regions were derived from ChIP-chip experiments. Seventeen candidate promoter regions resulted in at least two-fold enrichment by quantitative PCR. Notably, ERG potential targets included WNT signaling genes: WNT2, WNT9A, WNT11, CCND1, and FZD7. Functionally, expression of WNT11 was downregulated with siRNA ERG knockdown and substantially upregulated in a tet-on ERG-inducible assay in K562 cells. To investigate a role for ERG in WNT signaling, a WNT agonist was used to inhibit glycogen synthase kinase (GSK-3). This treatment resulted in an ERG-dependent proliferative growth advantage in the tet-on ERG-inducible system. Lastly, chromatin immunoprecipitation assays of primary leukemia blasts confirmed WNT11 promoter enrichment dependent on ERG mRNA expression. In conclusion, ERG transcriptional networks in leukemia are revealed. Specifically, WNT11 emerged as a target of ERG. We propose that overexpression of ERG in acute leukemia may lead to a proliferative advantage upon activation of WNT signals.

Project description:VH-DJH recombination of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) locus is temporally and spatially controlled during early B-cell development, and yet no regulatory elements other than the VH gene promoters have been identified throughout the entire 2.5-Mb VH gene cluster. Here we discovered novel regulatory sequences that are interspersed in the distal VH gene region. These conserved repeat elements were characterized by the presence of Pax5-dependent active chromatin, the binding of Pax5, E2A, CTCF and Rad21 as well as by Pax5-dependent antisense transcription in pro-B cells. The Pax5-activated intergenic repeat (PAIR) elements were no longer bound by Pax5 in pre-B and B cells consistent with the loss of antisense transcription, whereas E2A and CTCF interacted with PAIR elements throughout early B-cell development. The pro-B-cell-specific and Pax5-dependent activity of the PAIR elements suggests that they are involved in the regulation of distal VH-DJH recombination at the Igh locus.

Project description:STAT5 and IL-7 signaling are thought to control B-lymphopoiesis by regulating key transcription factor genes and activating VH gene segments at the Igh locus. Using conditional mutagenesis, we demonstrate that transgenic Bcl2 expression rescued the development of Stat5-deleted pro-B cells by compensating for the loss of Mcl-1. Ebf1 and Pax5 expression as well as VH recombination were normal in Bcl2-rescued pro-B cells lacking STAT5 or IL-7Ra. In agreement with this finding, STAT5-expressing pro-B cells contained little or no active chromatin at most VH genes. In contrast, Igk rearrangements were increased in STAT5- or IL-7Ra-deficient pro-B cells, consistent with direct binding of STAT5 to the intronic iEk enhancer in wild-type pro-B cells. Hence, STAT5 and IL-7 signaling control cell survival and suppress premature Igk recombination in early B-lymphopoiesis. comparison of wt vs Rag2-/- pro-B cells

Project description:Pax5 is a critical regulator of B cell commitment. Here we identified direct Pax5 target genes by streptavidin-mediated ChIP-chip analysis of pro-B cells expressing in vivo biotinylated Pax5. By binding to promoters and enhancers, Pax5 directly regulates the expression of multiple transcription factor, cell surface receptor and signal transducer genes. One of the newly identified enhancers was shown by transgenic analysis to confer Pax5-dependent B-cell-specific activity to the Nedd9 gene controlling B cell trafficking. Profiling of histone modifications in Pax5-deficient and committed wild-type pro-B cells demonstrated that Pax5 induces active chromatin at activated target genes, while eliminating active chromatin at repressed genes in committed pro-B cells. Pax5 rapidly induces these chromatin and transcription changes by recruiting chromatin-remodeling, histone-modifying and basal transcription factor complexes to its target genes. These data provide novel insight into the regulatory network and epigenetic regulation, by which Pax5 controls B cell commitment.

Project description:Derivation and maintenance of TS cells depends on the presence of Fgf signalling. Numerous gene knock-out experiments identified the mitogen activated kinase Mek/Erk branch of the Fgf signalling pathway as predominantly active in both TS cells and extraembryonic ectoderm. Therefore, we tested changes in expression of the key TS cell transcription factors (TFs) upon Mek/Erk inhibition using the Mek inhibitor PD0325901 (“PD03”). To obtain an unbiased genome-wide coverage of the immediate-early response genes of Mek inhibition in TS cells, we performed RNA-seq analysis after 3h and 24h of PD03 treatment. Notably, of the known TS cell TFs, this analysis confirmed Esrrb as the earliest, most rapidly silenced gene upon PD03 treatment. In order to gain first insights into which genes may be primary targets of Esrrb, we treated TS cells with the synthetic nonsteroidal estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES), an estrogen-related receptor (Err) antagonist and also performed RNA-seq upon short (24h) and prolonged (4d) DES treatment. Finally, to obtain a comprehensive global overview of the binding sites of Esrrb in TS cells, and of its interaction with Lsd1 and Nr0b1 (Dax1), we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-seq experiments on these factors.
