Direct Conversion of Human Fibroblasts into Neuronal Restricted Progenitors

ABSTRACT: Neuronal restricted progenitors (NRPs) represent a type of transitional intermediate cells that lie between multipotent neural progenitors (NPs) and terminal differentiated neurons during neurogenesis. These NRPs have the ability to self-renew and differentiate into neurons, but not into glial cells, which is considered as an advantage for cellular therapy of human neurodegenerative diseases. However, difficulty in the extraction of highly purified NPRs from normal nervous tissue prevents further studies and applications. In this study, we reported conversion of human fetal dermal fibroblasts into human induced neuronal restricted progenitors (hiNRPs) in seven days by using just three defined factors: Sox2, c-Myc, and either Brn2 or Brn4. The hiNRPs exhibited distinct neuronal characteristics, including cell morphology, multiple neuronal markers expression, self-renewal capacity, and genome-wide transcriptional profile. Moreover, hiNRPs were able to differentiate into various terminal neurons with functional membrane properties, but not glial cells. Direct generation of hiNRPs from somatic cells will provide a new source of cells for cellular replacement therapy of human neurodegenerative diseases. This is a general expression microarray design (NimbleGen platform). It includes 5 samples.

LncRNA expression profiles of 59 tumorous liver tissues derived from patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs longer than 200 nt that function in endogenous gene regulation and tumorigenesis. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous disease with different treatment outcome. It is a challenge to develop a prognostic marker to identify HCC patients who are at greatest risk for recurrence or death. In this study, we try to screen lncRNAs whose expression levels are associated with recurrence or death of HCC patients through an extensive lncRNA profiling study on a cohort of 59 HCC patients. For these experiments, we used RNA extracted from 59 HCC tissues and 20 normal livers. Total RNAs from the 20 normal livers were pooled and used as a reference for all microarray experiments. For each microarray experiment, Cy5-labeled probes derived from the DNase-treated total RNA from each HCC sample was hybridized against Cy3-labeled probes derived from common reference on Arraystar Human LncRNA Microarray (Arraystar, Rockville, USA). LncRNAs whose expression was significantly associated with disease-specific survival and time to recurrence were selected based on microarray data. The univariate Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association of lncRNAs with survival. We computed a statistical significance level (P value) for two endpointsM-bM-^@M-^Tthe time to cancer-related death and time to recurrence, based on univariate Cox proportional hazards models in BRB-ArrayTools version 4.2.0.

MCF7 breast cancer cells treated with mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes

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.

BRMS1L suppresses breast cancer metastasis by inducing epigenetic silence of FZD10

Project description:BRMS1L (breast cancer metastasis suppressor 1 likeM-oM-<M-^LBRMS1-like) is a component of the SIN3A-HDAC corepressor complex that suppresses target gene transcription. Here, we show that reduced BRMS1L in breast cancer tissues is associated with tumor metastasis and poor patient survival. Functionally, BRMS1L inhibits migration and invasion of breast cancer cells by inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). These effects are mediated by epigenetic silencing of FZD10, a receptor for Wnt signaling, by facilitating the recruitment of HDAC1 to its promoter and enhancing histone H3K9 deacetylation. Consequently, BRMS1L-induced FZD10 silencing inhibits aberrant activation of WNT3-FZD10-M-oM-^AM-"-catenin signaling. Furthermore, BRMS1L is a target of miR-106b and miR-106b upregulation leads to BRMS1L reduction in breast cancer cells. RNAi-mediated silencing of BRMS1L expression promotes metastasis of breast cancer xenografts in immunocompromised mice, while ectopic BRMS1L expression inhibits metastasis. Therefore, BRMS1L provides an epigenetic regulation of Wnt signaling in breast cancer cells and acts as a breast cancer metastasis suppressor. Ther transfection analysis used here were further desxribed in Chang Gong, eta al.2013. miR-106b expression determines the proliferation paradox of TGF-M-NM-2 in breast cancer cells.

Gene Expression Analysis for HBx-induced HCC Mouse Model

Project description:Hepatoarcinogenesis is a slow and multistep process. We used Hepatitis B virus X antigen (HBx) induced Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as model. We also identify the biomarkers, the pathways and networks underlying HCC formation in this animal model. We analyzed the events from the early, middle, and late stages, in order to predict and prevent the development of cancer. At each specific stage, we analyzed the expression level that differed at least two-fold between HBx transgenic and wild-type mouse liver. Statistical approaches were used to identify genes displaying an increasing or decreasing trend throughout hepatocarcinogenesis. The liver was excised from 6-week-, 8-month-, 12-month-, 14-month-, and 16-month-old HBx transgenic mice (A106 strain) and RNA samples were isolated. In both 14-month- and 16-month-old mice, samples were obtained from both the tumor tissue and the normal.

Project description:To find the discover target genes regulated by hnRNP A1 in oral squamous cell carcinoma, NimbleGen 12x135K microarrays were used to find the gene expression changes between hnRNP A1 or non-specific (NS) siRNA treated oral cancer cells. Cal27 cells were treated with hnRNP A1 or non-specific (NS) siRNA twice in a 48-hour interval. After 96 hours, total RNAs were collected for microarray assay. Total RNAs from hnRNP A1 knockdown (3 samples) or NS siRNA treated cells (3 samples) were used for chip experiment (6 chips). Each chip measures the expression levels of human 45,033 genes. NimbleGen One-Color DNA Labeling Kit was used for sample labeling. Hybridization was performed in NimbleGen Hybridization System. After washing, slides were scanned with Axon GenePix 4000B scanner. Data was extracted and normalized using NimbleScan v2.5 Software.
