Project description:Retinoic acid (RA) is the bioactive derivative of vitamin A that regulates gene expression by activating RA receptors (RAR). By using a reporter mouse model, we recently showed that endogenous RA/RAR signaling was present in kidney collecting duct cells, and in mouse inner medullary collecting duct cell line (mIMCD-3). In order to unveil target genes of endogenous RA/RAR signaling in kidney collecting duct cells, whole genome microarray analysis was performed on mIMCD-3 cells treated with AGN193109, a pan-RAR antagonist, and 4-diethylaminobenzaldehyde (DEAB), an inhibitor of RA synthesizing enzyme. Specificity of gene expression regulation was confirmed by determining the reversibility of the regulation by simultaneous addtion of exogenous tRA. In the first set of experiment, mIMCD-3 cells were treated with either vehicle (0.1% ethanol and 0.1% DMSO) or 1 μM AGN193109 or 1 μM AGN193109+0.2 μM tRA. Three independent biological experiments were performed. In the second set of experiment, mIMCD-3 cells were treated with either vehicle (0.1% ethanol and 0.1% DMSO) or 25 μM DEAB or 25 μM DEAB+0. 01 μM tRA. Three independent biological experiments were performed. Treatment period for both sets of experiments were 24 hours.

Project description:Ablation of the mouse gene for Onecut-2 was reported previously, but characterization of the resulting knockout mice was focused on in utero development, principally embryonic development of liver and pancreas. Here, we examine postnatal development of these Onecut-2 knockout mice, especially the critical period prior to weaning. Microarray technology was used to determine the effect of Onecut-2 ablation on gene expression in duodenum, whose epithelium has among the highest levels of Onecut-2. A subset of intestinally expressed genes showed dramatically altered patterns of expression. Many of these genes encode proteins associated with the epithelial membrane, including many involved in transport and metabolism. Previously, we reported that Onecut-2 was critical to temporal regulation of the adenosine deaminase gene in duodenum. Many of the genes with altered patterns of expression in the Onecut-2 knockout mouse duodenum displayed changes in the timing of gene expression. Duodenal segments were isolated at postnatal days 15 and 30 from wild type 129 mice and 129 mice with the Onecut-2 gene ablated . Total RNA was isolated in biological triplicate for each experimental time point. Each triplicate contained RNA from 5-8 mice of the appropriate age and genotype. Affymetrix microarray technology was used to compare gene expression in wild type duodenum at d15 to gene expression in wild type duodenum at d30 and to compare gene expression in duodenum from Onecut-2 knockout mice at d15 and d30 to each other and to the expression in wild type duodenum.

Project description:Cellular reprogramming from somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be achieved through forced expression of the transcription factors Oct4, Klf4, Sox2 and c-Myc (OKSM). These factors, in combination with environmental cues, induce a stable intrinsic pluripotency network that confers indefinite self-renewal capacity on iPSCs. In addition to Oct4 and Sox2, the homeodomain-containing transcription factor Nanog is an integral part of the pluripotency network. Although Nanog expression is not required for the maintenance of pluripotent stem cells, it has been reported to be essential for the establishment of both embryonic stem cells (ESCs) from blastocysts and iPSCs from somatic cells. Here we revisit the role of Nanog in direct reprogramming. Surprisingly, we find that Nanog is dispensable for iPSC formation under optimized culture conditions. We further document that Nanog-deficient iPSCs are transcriptionally highly similar to wild-type iPSCs and support the generation of teratomas and chimeric mice. Lastly, we provide evidence that the presence of ascorbic acid in the culture media is critical for overcoming the previously observed reprogramming block of Nanog knockout cells.

Project description:The conditioned media from Bifidobacterium infantis (BCM) and Lactobacillus acidophilus (LCM) were reported to promote maturation of innate immune response gene expression, which explained the protective effects of probiotics in clinical necrotizing enterocolitis. We used microarray analysis to investigate the expression of genes involved in regulation of BCM and LCM in IL-1β stimulated immature human enterocytes. The H4 cells (a human nontransformed primary intestinal epithelial cell line) were pretreated with BCM or LCM (15%) for 30 minutes, and then stimulated with or without IL-1β (10 ng/mL) for 4 h. Cell media and IL-1β stimulation were negative and positive control, respectively. RNA was extracted for mcroarray analysis. A total of six treatments (triplicates for each) were included in this study. As one RNA sample in IL-1β-stimulated cells treated with BCM was dropped due to bad quality, seventeen samples were analyzed. Various treatments were compared to the nagative control (cell media alone). Genes with a fold-change ≥2 and a p value ≤ 0.05 were selected.

Project description:Cellular differentiation involves profound changes in the chromatic landscape, yet the mechanisms by which somatic cell identity is subsequently maintained remain incompletely understood. To further elucidate regulatory pathways that safeguard the somatic state, we performed two comprehensive RNAi screens targeting chromatin factors during transcription factor-mediated reprogramming of mouse fibroblasts to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Remarkably, subunits of the chromatin assembly factor-1 (CAF-1) complex emerged as the most prominent hits from both screens, followed by modulators of lysine sumoylation and heterochromatin maintenance. Suppression of CAF-1 increased reprogramming efficiency by several orders of magnitude and facilitated iPSC formation in as little as 4 days. Mechanistically, CAF-1 suppression led to a more accessible chromatin structure at enhancer elements early during reprogramming. These changes were accompanied by a decrease in somatic heterochromatin domains, increased binding of Sox2 to pluripotency-specific targets and activation of associated genes. Notably, suppression of CAF-1 also enhanced the direct conversion of B cells into macrophages and fibroblasts into neurons. Together, our findings reveal the histone chaperone CAF-1 as a novel regulator of somatic cell identity during transcription factor-induced cell fate transitions and provide a potential strategy to modulate cellular plasticity in a regenerative setting.

Project description:Mice with the two calcium-stmulated adenylyl cyclase isoforms (AC1 and AC8; DKO mice) knocked-out show conditioned fear memory deficits. We assessed gene expression changes at baseline and several time points after conditioned fear learning to assess transcriptional changes at different stages of learning. Transcriptional changes were assessed in the amydgdala and hippocampus of DKO and wild-type mice. Mice either received no treatment (baseline) or were subjected to conditioned fear training (one 0.7mA x 2 sec shock). Amygdala and hippocampal tissue from wild-type and DKO (AC1 and AC8 KO) mice was used. Samples were extracted at baseline (-5 min before conditioned fear training), 0 hr, 1 hr, or 48 hr after a 5 min conditioned fear training trial, or at 1 wk after a 5 min conditioned fear testing trial. RNA samples from 5-10 mice were pooled per array with one array per genotype/brain region/time point for a total of 20 arrays. mRNA was reverese transcribed, labeled and hybridized to Affymetric Mouse Gene ST 1.0 Arrays.

Project description:MicroRNAs predominantly decrease gene expression; however, specific mRNAs are translationally upregulated in quiescent (G0) mammalian cells and immature Xenopus laevis oocytes by an FXR1a-associated microRNP (microRNA-protein complex) that lacks the microRNP repressor, GW182. We conducted global proteomic analysis in THP1 cells depleted of FXR1 to globally identify activation targets of more than one microRNA, since FXR1 is required for microRNAmediated translation activation in THP1 G0 cells by FXR1-microRNPs.Since proteomic data changes could also be due to changes at the RNA level, total RNA levels in FXR1knockdown compared to control shRNA cells were examined in parallel by microarray analysis using Affymetrix Human GeneChip 2.0 ST. We used microarrays to get total RNA levels from FXR1 knockdown and control shRNA cells, to normalize the mass spectrometry data in order to provide normalized protein data or translation efficiency. FXR1 knockdown and shRNA control cells were induced with 1ug/ml of doxycycline continually to cause knockdown of FXR1; the cells were grown in serum for 3 days to induce the shRNAs, followed by 2 days of serum-starvation to induce G0. After harvesting, the cells were lysed in proteinase K buffer (Truesdell et al., 2012) and total RNA was isolated using Trizol (Invitrogen) and hybridized on Affymetrix Human GeneChip 2.0 ST microarray.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa undergoes cell elongation and forms robust biofilms during anaerobic respiratory growth using nitrate (NO3-) as an alternative electron acceptor. Understanding the mechanism of cell shape change induced upon anaerobiosis is crucial to the development of effective treatments against P. aeruginosa biofilm infection. Anaerobic growth of PAO1 reached higher cell density in the presence of vitamin B12, an essential coenzyme of class II ribonucleotide reductase. In addition, cell morphology returned to a normal rod shape. These results suggest that vitamin B12, the production of which was suppressed during anaerobic growth, can restore cellular machineries for DNA replication and therefore facilitate better anaerobic growth of P. aeruginosa with normal cell division. We used microarray to elucidate the global gene expression profiles underlying vitamin B12-induced changes in bacterial cell shape and growth-associated properties. Gene expression profiles of PAO1 grown in LBN (LB+NO3-) or LBN supplemented with 1 microM vitamin B12 are compared.
