Project description:WAC is a known positive regulator of (macro)autophagy. WAC also forms a complex with RNF20/RNF40 to promote H2B monoubiquitination and hence to affect transcriptional regulation. This study addresses whether the WAC/RNF20/RNF40 complex regulates autophagy through effects on gene expression. WAC, RNF20 and RNF40 were knocked-down using pools of siRNAs in HEK293A cells. Each knockdown was in triplicate and the control was RISCfree siRNA. mRNA expression profiles were investigated using an Illumina HT12v4 Bead Array.

Project description:Objectives: To identify similarities and differences in gene expression data in the MEK/ERK and PI3K pathways and to determine how histone modification affects these same pathways. Goal: To identify and functionally characterize novel targets of these signaling pathways in the context of chondrocyte differentiation. Experiment Overall Design: Cartilage derived from the hind limbs of CD1 mice staged at 15.5 days of embryonic development were dissected and plated in primary chondrocyte monolayer cultures. Cells were treated with MEK/ERK pathway inhibitors (SB202190 and UO126), a PI3K inhibitor (LY294002), a histone deacetylase inhibitor (Trichostatin A) and the vehicle control (DMSO) for two hours. Total RNA was isolated from these samples and hybridized to Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0 chips at the London Regional Genomics facility. Experiment Overall Design: A total of 15 genechips were analyzed between 4 treatments and the vehicle (DMSO) control. Three biological replicates per treatment were executed.

Project description:A variety of cell cultures models and in vivo approaches have been used to study gene expression during chondrocyte differentiation. The extent to which the in vitro models reflect bona fide gene regulation in the growth plate has not been quantified. In addition, studies that evaluate global gene expression changes among different growth plate zones are limited. To address these issues, we completed a microarray screen of three growth plate zones derived from manually segmented embryonic mouse tibiae. Classification of genes differentially expressed between each respective growth plate zone, functional categorization as well as characterization of gene expression patterns, cytogenetic loci, signaling pathways and functional motifs confirmed documented data and pointed to novel aspects of chondrocyte differentiation. Parallel comparisons of the microdissected tibiae data set to our previously completed micromass culture screen further corroborated the suitability of micromass cultures for modeling gene expression in chondrocyte development. The micromass culture system demonstrated striking similarities to the in vivo microdissected tibiae screen; however, the micromass system was unable to accurately distinguish gene expression differences in the hypertrophic and mineralized zones of the growth plate. These studies will allow us to better understand zone-specific gene expression patterns in the growth plate. Ultimately, this work will help define both the genomic context in which genes are expressed in the long bones and the extent to which the micromass culture system is able to recapitulate chondrocyte development in endochondral ossification. Experiment Overall Design: Tibiae from 15.5 day old mouse embryos were isolated and partitioned into three distinct zones. Total RNA was isolated from each segment and the individual segments pooled within a litter. Experiment Overall Design: Samples were hybridized to Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0 mouse chips for analysis. Four independent trials were executed for each zone.

Project description:Demonstration of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) was first shown in the mouse and was dependent on recipient bone marrow (BM) to support in vivo multilineage hematopoietic reconstitution, thereby illustrating non-cell-autonomous requirements for HSC functions. Murine studies have defined microanatomic compartments in the BM comprised of osteoblasts, mesenchymal cells, subsets of vasculature, and innervating neural cells functioning as an HSC-supportive niche. Despite the potential clinical applications, analyses of putative HSCs in the BM of humans has not been examined. Here, using human bone biopsies, we provide evidence of HSC propensity to endosteal regions of Trabecular Bone Area (TBA). Independent of phenotypic definitions based on prospective isolation, functional studies indicate that human HSCs residing in the TBA of human and transplanted recipients had superior regenerative and self-renewal capacity and are molecularly distinct to those repopulating the Long Bone Area (LBA). Consistent with the non-cell-autonomous nature of HSC function, osteoblasts in the TBA possess unique characteristics and expressed a key network of factors including those involving Notch activity which could regulate TBA vs. LBA location of human HSCs in vivo. Our study illustrates that human-mouse xenografts provide a surrogate to indigenous human HSC in the BM, and demonstrates that BM architecture plays a critical role in defining functional properties of human HSCs. Lin- MNCs from human Umbilical Cord blood (CB) were injected via tail vein into sublethally irradiated NOD/SCID adult mice. After 10 weeks post-transplantation, engrafted-CB cells were sorted based on the co-expression of CD45 and CD34, and absence or presence of CD38 using a FACSAria II (BD). Total RNA from purified populations was extracted and amplified as described previously (Shojaei et al., 2005). Amplified-labeled RNA was hybridized to HG-U133Plus v2.0 chip.

Project description:Gene expression (mRNA) profiling of human ependymomas Despite the histological similarity of ependymomas from throughout the neuraxis, the disease likely comprises multiple independent entities, each with a distinct molecular pathogenesis. Transcriptional profiling of two large independent cohorts of ependymoma reveals the existence of two demographically, transcriptionally, genetically, and clinically distinct groups of posterior fossa (PF) ependymoma. Group-A patients are younger, have laterally located tumors with a balanced genome, and are much more likely to exhibit recurrence, secondary metastasis, and death as compared to Group-B patients. Identification and optimization of immunohistochemical markers for PF ependymoma subgroups allowed validation of our findings on a third independent group of tumors using a human ependymoma tissue microarray, and provides a tool for prospective prognostication and stratification of PF ependymoma patients. We analyzed 102 primary ependymomas on the Affymetrix Exon 1.0ST platform (Gene Level).

Project description:Tra1 is a component of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae SAGA and NuA4 complexes and a member of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase kinase family that contain a C-terminal PI3K domain followed by a 35-residue FATC domain. We analyzed alleles with single residue changes in the FATC domain. Of these tra1-L3733A had the most pronounced effects, resulting in phenotypes similar but not identical to those resulting from mutations in the PI3K domain or SAGA or NuA4 components. To analyze the transcriptional effects of the tra1-L3733A allele, we performed gene profiling of wild-type and tra1-L3733A strains. Expression of 11 genes was elevated ≥ 2-fold, 79 genes were decreased ≥ 2-fold. Of the 11 genes with elevated expression, four (HSP26, PIR3, DDR2 and GRE1) have roles in cellular stress response. The only gene ontology process significantly enriched in the genes with decreased expression greater than 2-fold was lysine biosynthesis (GO: 0009085). Broader analysis of gene ontology processes revealed expression of genes involved in cellular respiration (GO:0045333) and the overlapping process generation of precursor metabolites and energy (GO: 0006091) showed an average upward shift of ~10% relative to the total collection of genes. A similar trend of less magnitude was seen for vitamin metabolic processes (GO:0006766). A slight downward shift was seen for genes involved in translation (GO:0006412) and membrane organization (GO:0016044). Examination of gene expression changes in tra1-L3733A

Project description:Global analysis of brassinosteroid (BR)-mediated gene expression under abiotic stress identifies BR associated mechanisms of stress tolerance, and new stress-related genes We used the Arabidopsis Affymetrix ATH1 array to analyze gene expression in a synthetic BR, 24-epibrassinolide (EBR)-treated and untreated Arabidopsis seedlings before, during and after heat stress (HS) treatment. Microarray expression profiles were generated from EBR-treated (E; 1 µM EBR for 21 days) and untreated (C; 0.01% ethanol for 21 days) Arabidopsis seedlings under no-stress (0 h), HS (1 h and 3 h) at 43°C conditions. Additionally, a recovery for 6 h (6 hR) at 22°C after exposure to 3h HS at 43°C was also included

Project description:The patterning of the facial midline involves early specification of neural crest cells to form skeletal tissues that support the upper jaw . In order to understand the molecular mechanisms involved we have taken advantage of a beak duplication model developed in the chicken embryo. Here we can induce the transformation of the side of the beak into a second midline that is easily identifiable by the formation of a supernumerary egg tooth. The phenotype is induced by implanting two microscopic beads, one soaked in retinoic acid and the other soaked in Noggin into the side of the head of the chicken embryo. Here we use microarrays to profile expression of maxillary mesenchyme 16h after placing the beads. A subset of genes were validated using in situ hybridization and QPCR. The aims of the study are to test the function of these genes using retroviral transgenesis, knockdown with morpholinos or expression of secreted proteins and their application to the embryo. Embryos were incubated at 38 degrees C until they reached Hamburger Hamilton Stage 15 or 25 somites. Four different treatments were carried out consisting of two beads simultaneously implanted into the side of the head between the eye and mandibular arch. The beads were either Noggin+retinoic acid, Tris+retinoic acid, Noggin+DMSO or the control, Tris+DMSO. Embryos were reincubated for another 16h until they reached stage 18. Embryos were dissected on ice in Hanks Buffered Salt Solution and batches of 12-15 maxillary pieces were snap frozen in liquid Nitrogen. These pooled facial prominences comprised one biological replicate. A total of three biological replicates were generated for each treatment.

Project description:This study compares a cell line (MDA-MB-468GFP-LN) that aggressively metastasizes to lymph nodes to its parental line MDA-MB-468GFP. Derivation of the lines is described in Vantyghem et al, Clinical & Experimental Metastasis (2005) 22: 351â361. The goal here was to compare the gene expression profile of MDA-MB-468GFP-LN to MDA-MB-468GFP, Compare differential expression to databases of genes known to be involved in either cancer stem cell identification or lymph node specific metastasis in large scale clinical studies, and to confirm genes by RT-PCR Experiment Overall Design: For each cell line, 3 biological replicates were grown, RNA isolated, and gene expression profiles determined using Affymetrix HGU133_Plus_2 genechips. The MDA-MB-468GFP-LN cell line was the "experimental" group, and the MDA-MB-468GFP was the control group. Intensity values were calculated using MAS5.0, Data was then imported into Genespring 7.0, and ANOVA (nominal alpha set to 0.05) was used to determine probe sets showing significant differential expression. A Benjamini and Hochberg algorithm was implemented in Genespring to reduce the false discovery rate.
