Cardiac transcriptome of Tcf21-depleted Xenopus embryos


ABSTRACT: The aim of the approach was to use RNAseq analysis to identify genes expressed in Xenopus epicardium that were affected by embryonic depletion of the epicardial transcription factor Tcf21 compared to control-MO injected siblings. Both upregulated and downregulated genes were validated by RT-PCR and whole embryo in situ hybridization to validate gene expression and assess spatio-temporal distribution of genes of interest within the heart and epicardium. Approximately 70-100 stage 44-46 Xenopus laevis hearts were dissected to isolate total mRNA from which poly-adenylated RNA was extracted using the Illumina standard protocol. This experiment represents one replicate from pooled hearts. mRNA profiles of stage 44-45 Xenopus laevis sibling hearts from control or Tcf21-depleted embryos, were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina GAII.

The epicardium is a mesothelial cell layer essential for vertebrate heart development and pertinent for cardiac repair post-injury in the adult. The epicardium initially forms from a dynamic precursor structure, the proepicardial organ, from which cells migrate onto the heart surface. During the initial stage of epicardial development crucial epicardial-derived cell lineages are thought to be determined. Here, we define an essential requirement for transcription factor Tcf21 during early stages  ...[more]
