We examined the gene expression and DNA methylation of 49 human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and 10 human embryonic stem cells and found overlapped variations in gene expression and DNA methylation in the two types of human pluripotent stem cell lines. Comparisons of the in vitro neural differentiation of 40 hiPSCs and 10 human embryonic stem cells showed that seven hiPSC clones retained a significant number of undifferentiated cells even after neural differentiation culture and forme ...[more]

Project description:It remains controversial whether human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are distinct from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in their molecular signatures and differentiation properties. We examined the gene expression and DNA methylation of 49 hiPSC and 10 hESC lines and identified no molecular signatures that distinguished hiPSCs from hESCs. Comparisons of the in vitro directed neural differentiation of 40 hiPSC and four hESC lines showed that most hiPSC clones were comparable to hESCs. However, in seven hiPSC clones, significant amount of undifferentiated cells persisted even after neural differentiation and resulted in teratoma formation when transplantated into mouse brains. These differentiation-defective hiPSC clones were marked by higher expression of several genes, including those expressed from long terminal repeats of human endogenous retroviruses. These data demonstrated that many hiPSC clones are indistinguishable from hESCs, while some defective hiPSC clones need to be eliminated prior to their application for regenerative medicine. We extracted total RNA from 10 hESCs, 49 hiPSCs, 2 hECCs, 6 somatic cells and 3 cancer cell lines and hybridized them to Agilent miRNA expression microarrays.

Project description:We recently showed that some human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) clones were defective in neural differentiation and were marked with the activation of long term repeats (LTRs) of human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs). We herein demonstrated that these LTRs were transiently overexpressed during the generation of iPSCs and contributed to reprogramming. When the generation of iPSCs was completed, LTRs were re-suppressed to levels similar to those in human ES cells. However, differentiation-defective iPSC clones maintained high LTR expression levels, which indicated that these clones failed to complete reprogramming. lincRNA-RoR, a long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA) that was previously shown to support the induction and maintenance of pluripotency, was detected among the LTR-driven transcripts. Short hairpin RNAs against the conserved sequence in LTRs or lincRNA-RoR markedly reduced the efficiency of iPSC generation. Reprogramming factors including OCT3/4, SOX2, and KLF4 bound to most LTRs. The expression of KLF4 was low in normal iPSC clones, but remained high in differentiation-defective clones. The forced expression of KLF4 in human embryonic stem cells led to the activation of LTRs and defects in neural differentiation. These results demonstrated that the transient overexpression of KLF4/LTR/lincRNA-RoR played crucial roles in reprogramming toward pluripotency in humans, whereas a failure in its re-silence resulted in differentiation defects. Four human induced pluripotent stem cell lines were subcloned into 55 separate lines. Bisulfite converted genomic DNA lysates from fibroblast, induced pluripotent stem cell, intermediate reprogrammed cell and embryonic stem cell lines were hybridized to Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip.

Project description:Profiles of sequence variants that influence gene transcription are very important for understanding mechanisms that affect phenotypic variation and disease susceptibility. Using genotypes at 1.4 million SNPs and a comprehensive transcriptional profile of 15,454 coding genes and 6,113 lincRNA genes obtained from peripheral blood cells of 298 Japanese individuals, we mapped expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs). We identified 3,804 cis-eQTLs (within 500 kb from target genes) and 165 trans-eQTLs (>500 kb away or on different chromosomes). Cis-eQTLs were often located in transcribed or adjacent regions of genes; among these regions, 5’ untranslated regions and 5’ flanking regions had the largest effects. Epigenetic evidence for regulatory potential accumulated in public databases explained the magnitude of the effects of our eQTLs. Cis-eQTLs were often located near the respective target genes, if not within genes. Large effect sizes were observed with eQTLs near target genes, and effect sizes were obviously attenuated as the eQTL distance from the gene increased. Using a very stringent significance threshold, we identified 165 large-effect trans-eQTLs. We used our eQTL map to assess 8,069 disease-associated SNPs identified in 1,436 genome-wide association studies (GWAS). We identified genes that might be truly causative, but GWAS might have failed to identify for 148 out of the GWAS-identified SNPs; for example, TUFM (P=3.3E-48) was identified for inflammatory bowel disease (early onset); ZFP90 (P=4.4E-34) for ulcerative colitis; and IDUA (P=2.2E-11) for Parkinson's disease. We identified four genes (P<2.0E-14) that might be related to three diseases and two hematological traits; each expression is regulated by trans-eQTLs on a different chromosome than the gene. The study subjects were 301 apparently healthy individuals residing in Nagahama City, Japan. Whole blood was collected from each participant when in a non-stimulated state.

Project description:Global analyses on gene expression profiles in short-term imbibition (0, 8, and 16 h) was performed using DNA microarray technique to look at changes of expression of genes coding for components that may determine food protein quality. DNA microarray analysis followed by gene ontology statistics revealed that, prior to 16 h, (i) genes for carbohydrate metabolism giving rise to nutrients as the primary metabolism were up-regulated; (ii) genes response to water-, temperature-, and light-stimulation which may not be related to soybean protein properties were down-regulated; and (iii) gene associated with lipid metabolism and secondary metabolite production which can be activated during germination showed indistinct up- and down-regulations. Soybean seeds were selected at 0, 8, and 16 h imbibition for RNA extraction and hybridization on Agilent microarrays.

Project description:B. cereus RNA isolation were taken at OD 0.5 just before addition of 0.02 mg/mL EEC, and at 30 min of exposure. Water was added instead of EEC for control. Total RNA was isolated and we performed DNA microarray for genome-wide transcriptional analysis of B. cereus ATCC 14579 in the presence or absence of EEC. The microarray used in this study was custom-made B. cereus ATCC 14579 developed by Agilent Technologies (https://earray.chem.agilent.com/earray/). The B. cereus microarray design was based on the predicted chromosomal open reading frames (NCBI Accession No. AE016877). It targets the 5234 annotated CDS, three non-overlapping probes were designed, low-quality probes were eliminated, and finally 15242 could be spotted. Microarray data was normalized to 75th percentile and the difference was found to be significant by unpaired T-test (P = 0.05). Next, ratio changes of 2-fold (for up-regulated genes in the EEC stress condition) and 0.5-fold (for down-regulated genes in the EEC stress condition) were regarded as biologically significant. 596 were up-regulated and 495 were down-regulated. Bacillus cereus was selected at 0, 30 min exposure for RNA extraction and hybridization on Agilent microarrays.

Project description:We report here that KSHV viral infection targets the NF-kB pathway which is crucial for cell survival. KSHV protein vFLIP K13 is known to directly interact with cellular protein NEMO of the NF-kB pathway. We used gene expression array to suggets that the interaction of K13 with NEMO is important to activate NF-kB pathway. We employed gene array analysis followed by bioinformatics analyses as well as biological pathways to determine the effect of K13 interaction with Nemo in Jurkat cell line system. Total RNA was isolated isolated using standard RNAeasy kit protocol (Qiagen). Their gene expression profiles were obtained using the Affymetrix Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array.

Project description:Infection of Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpes virus (KSHV) has been linked to the development of primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), which is characterized by the loss of expression of B cell markers and effusions in the body cavities. This unique clinical feature of PEL has been attributed to their distinctive gene expression profile which shows overexpression of genes in various signaling pathways. KSHV-encoded latent protein vFLIP K13 has been shown to promote the survival and proliferation of PEL cells. In this study, we have employed gene array analysis followed by bioinformatics analysis of coordinated transcriptional factors network as well as biological pathways to characterize the effect of K13 on PEL-derived BCBL1 cells. We observed that genes associated with Cytokine signaling, Cell death, NF-kappaB and Cell adhesion pathways were differentially regulated by K13. We used computational approach complemented with microarrays to detail the global gene expression and identified distinct classes of differentially regulated genes in various cellular processes. We employed gene array analysis followed by bioinformatics analyses of coordinated transcriptional factors network as well as biological pathways to characterize the effect of K13 on in PEL-derived BCBL1 cells.

Project description:Human mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-conditioned medium (CM) was previously reported to affect the biology of tumor cells; however, the precise mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we show that MSCs secreted 40- to 100-nm particles, which have the typical characteristics of exosomes, and these MSC-derived exosomes promoted migration of the breast cancer cell line MCF7. To further investigate the effect of MSC-exosomes on MCF7, we analyzed the gene expression profiles of MCF7 treated with or without MSC-exosomes for 24 h. Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in breast cancer cell line MCF7 which were treated with or without mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes. This study uses total RNA recovered from two samples. One sample is MCF7 treated with PBS for 24 hours and another one is MCF7 treated with mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes for 24hours. The ultimate concentration of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes used in this experiment was 400ng/ul.
