Expression data from adult male Drosophila heads

ABSTRACT: A Drosophila microRNA (dme-miR-14) is involved in regulating the levels of insulin-like peptides (ilps) from the neuronal insulin-producing cells (IPCs). This is crucial for regulation of fat content in adult flies. Finding the target of this microRNA is crucial for understanding the regulation of ilp gene expression. We used microarrays to identify genes that are upregulated specifically in the neuronal IPCs in the microRNA mutants. Drosophila adult head RNA was extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. We reared animals from early larval stages in controlled growth and feeding conditions. RNA was extracted from 5-day-old adult males. We collected RNA from control, homozygous dme-miR-14 mutants and mutants expressing dme-miR-14 microRNA specifically in the IPCs (rescue). We were interested in genes that were upregulated in the mutants and were restored or reduced to control levels in the rescue condition. Two biological replicates per sample type were performed.

Genome-wide analysis of dFOXO binding sites in Drosophila

Project description:To understand how reduced insulin/IGF-1 signaling extends Drosophila lifespan through its downstream transcription factor dFOXO. We conducted ChIP analysis with a dFOXO antibody followed by Illumina high-throughput sequencing from chico heterozygous mutants, which are long-lived and normal sized, and from adult flies with ablated insulin producing cells (IPCs), which are also long-lived. dFOXO bound at promoters of 273 genes common among these genotypes, thus potentially enriching for shared factors in control of aging. Two replicates were sequenced from chico heterozygous mutants and IPC ablated flies.

Tet Controls Axon Guidance in Early Brain Development through Glutamatergic Signaling

Project description:Ten-eleven translocation (Tet) is an important gene in neurodevelopment, but how Tet regulates brain development is still under study. Mutations in human TET proteins have been found in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. Here we report a new function of Tet in regulating Drosophila early brain development. We found that mutation on the Tet DNA-binding domain (TetAXXC) resulted in axon guidance defects in the mushroom body (MB). Tet is required in early brain development during the outgrowth of MB β axons. Transcriptomic study of TetAXXC mutant and wild-type pupal brains shows that glutamine synthetase 2 (Gs2), a key enzyme in glutamatergic signaling, is the most significantly down-regulated gene in the Tet mutant brains. RNAi knockdown or CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis of Gs2 recapitulates the TetAXXC phenotype. Surprisingly, Tet and Gs2 act in the insulin-producing cells (IPCs) to control MB axon guidance, and overexpression of Gs2 in the IPCs rescue the axonal defects of TetAXXC. Treating TetAXXC with the metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonist MPEP can also rescue the phenotype confirming Tet function in regulating glutamatergic signaling. TetAXXC and the Drosophila homolog of Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein protein mutant (Fmr13) have similar mushroom body axonal defects and reduction in Gs2 transcription, and, importantly, overexpression of Gs2 in the IPCs of Fmr1 mutants also rescues the axonal defects. Our studies reveal a new function of Tet in regulating axon guidance in the brain via glutamatergic signaling and suggest overlapping functions between Tet and Fmr1.

miR-17-92/106b regulate beta cell mitotic checkpoint and insulin secretion

Project description:Adult beta cells in the pancreas are the sole source of insulin in our body. Beta cell loss or increased demand for insulin, impose metabolic challenges because adult beta cells are generally quiescent and infrequently re-enter the cell division cycle. miR-17-92/106b is a family of proto-oncogene microRNAs, that regulate proliferation in normal tissues and in cancer. Here, we employ mouse genetics to demonstrate a critical role for miR-17-92/106b in glucose homeostasis and in controlling insulin secretion. Mass spectrometry analysis was performed on miR-17-92LoxP/LoxP;106-25-/- MEF lysate, without or with CRE-Adenovirus. miR-17-92LoxP/LoxP;106-25+/+ MEFs with GFP-Adenovirus served as controls. We demonstrate that miR-17-92/106b regulate the adult beta cell mitotic checkpoint and that miR-17-92/106b deficiency results in reduction in beta cell mass in-vivo. Furthermore, protein kinase A (PKA) is a new relevant molecular pathway downstream of miR-17-92/106b in control of adult beta cell division and glucose homeostasis. Therefore, contributes to the understanding of proto-oncogene miRNAs in the normal, untransformed endocrine pancreas, and illustrates new genetic means for regulation of beta cell mitosis and function by non-coding RNAs.

Transcription profiling of Drosophila after fasting

Project description:In fasted mammals, glucose homeostasis is maintained through activation of the cAMP responsive CREB coactivator TORC2, which stimulates the gluconeogenic program in concert with the forkhead transcription factor FOXO1. Here we show that starvation also triggers TORC activation in Drosophila, where it maintains energy balance by promoting the expression of CREB target genes in the brain. TORC mutant flies have reduced glycogen and lipid stores, and they are sensitive to starvation as well as oxidative stress. Neuronal TORC expression rescued starvation and oxidative stress sensitivity as well as CREB target gene expression in TORC mutants. During refeeding, increases in insulin signaling inhibited TORC activity in wild type flies by stimulating the Salt Inducible Kinase 2 (SIK2)-mediated phosphorylation and subsequent degradation of TORC. Depletion of neuronal SIK2 increased TORC activity and enhanced resistance to starvation and oxidative stress in adult flies. As disruption of insulin signaling, either by ablation of insulin-producing cells (IPCs) or by mutation of the insulin receptor adaptor gene chico, also increased TORC activity, our results illustrate the importance of an insulin-regulated pathway in brain that promotes energy balance in Drosophila. Experiment Overall Design: Male fly heads were collected after 24h fasting, and RNA was extracted using RNAeasy kit.

Transcriptome profiling of Drosophila adults from multiple generations including flies with genetically-ablated insulin-producing cells as founders.

Project description:Transgenerational epigenetic inheritance is a subject of immense current interest. In a newly developed Drosophila model in the laboratory, genetic ablation of insulin-producing cells (IPCs) was found to affect whole -body triglyceride levels not only in the ablated flies but also in their male-line derived, non-ablated future generations. To further characterize this genetic-factor-induced transgenerational inheritance model, we have now performed whole body microarray gene expression profiling of adult males and females with genetically ablated IPCs, and of three consecutive, paternally derived non-ablated generations of adult males and females originating from ablated males. Interestingly, like altered levels of triglycerides, transcriptomic alterations are found not only in the ablated flies but also in their male-line-derived, non-ablated future generations.
