Robust Differentiation of Islet Progenitors into Functional Insulin-secreting Cells by Suppression of Key Transcription Regulators

ABSTRACT: Gene profiling revealed that differentiation was accompanied by suppression of a range of transcription regulator genes typical of islet progenitor cells. In order to understand molecular mechanisms of differentiation, transcriptome-wide gene expression analysis was performed on purified islet progenitors at days 0, 1 and 4 of differentiation together with adult islets as a control.

Wnt signalling sustains an EpiSCs subpopulation similar to primitive streak with increased mesendodermal potency

Project description:During gastrulation, epiblast cells are pluripotent and their fate is thought to be constrained principally by their position. Cell fate is progressively restricted by localised signalling cues from areas including the primitive streak (PS). However, it is unknown whether this restriction accompanies, at the single cell level, a reduction in potency. Investigation of these early transition events in vitro is possible via the use of Epiblast Stem Cells (EpiSCs), self-renewing pluripotent cell lines equivalent to the postimplantation epiblast. Strikingly, EpiSCs express various early lineage-specific markers in self-renewing conditions. However, it is unknown whether cells that express these markers are pluripotent, spontaneously differentiated, or biased towards specific lineages. Here we show that EpiSC are inherently heterogeneous and contain two major and mutually exclusive subpopulations with PS and neural characteristics respectively. Using differentiation assays and embryo grafting we demonstrate that PS-like EpiSCs are biased towards mesoderm and endoderm differentiation but they still retain their pluripotent character. The acquisition of a PS character by undifferentiated EpiSC is mediated by paracrine Wnt signalling. Elevation of Wnt activity promotes further restriction into PS-associated cell fates which occurs via the generation of distinct clonal mesendodermal and neuromesodermal precursors. Collectively, our data suggest that primed pluripotency encompasses a range of reversible lineage-biased states reflecting the birth of pioneer lineage precursors from a pool of uncommitted EpiSCs similar to the earliest cell fate restriction events taking place in the gastrula-stage epiblast. Total RNA obtained (3 biological replicates) from flow sorted dsRed2+, dsRed2-, and +CHIRON treated for 48h cells was isolated and labelled/amplified using the IlluminaM-BM-.

Gene expression profiles from joint-matched macroscopically intact and OA affected cartilage of patients undergoing joint replacement surgery due to end-stage OA

Project description:Genome wide gene expression was determined in paired samples of OA affected and preserved cartilage of the same joint using microarray analysis for 33 patients of the RAAK-study. Among the 1717 genes that were significantly different expressed between OA affected and preserved cartilage we found significant enrichment for genes involved in skeletal development (e.g. TNFRSF11B and FRZB). Also several inflammatory genes such as CD55, PTGES and TNFAIP6, previously identified in within-joint analyses as well as in analyses comparing preserved cartilage from OA affected joints versus healthy cartilage were among the top genes. A notable new gene was NGF, highly up-regulated in OA cartilage. To identify gene expression profiles associated with OA processes in articular cartilage and determine pathways responsive to the disease process gene expression profiles of paired preserved and OA affected cartilage samples of the same joint were determined.

Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Exploit the Immune Response Mediating Chemokines to Impact the Phenotype of Glioblastoma

Project description:Four human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) clones (MSC-1, MSC-2, MSC-3, MSC-4) and three different glioblastoma multiformae (GBM) cell lines (U87-MG, U251, U373) were used to study their mutual paracrine interactions in the indirect co-cultures compared to their monocultures, which were grown under the same experimental conditions. The effects on cell growth, proliferation and invasion in matrigel were quantified. Further on, bioinformatic tools were used to relate these results to the data obtained from cytokine macroarrays and DNA microarrays that revealed proteins and genes significantly involved in the interaction. We showed that hMSC are responsible for the impairment of GBM cell invasion and growth, possibly via induction of their senescence. On the other hand, U87-MG cells even more strongly inversely affected some of these characteristics in hMSCs. We found several chemokines that may account for changed co-cultured cells’ phenotype, affecting genes associated with proliferation and senescence. CCL2/MCP-1 was collectively identified as the most significantly regulated chemokine during hMSC and U87-MG paracrine signalling. Its role in U87-MG cell invasion was also functionally confirmed. Microarray data deposited here contain gene expression data from three biological replicates of monocultures and indirect co-cultures of MSC-4 and U87-MG cells, representing 12 microarrays. Three biological replicates of four cell set-ups were performed: MSC-4 monoculture, U87-MG monoculture, MSC-4 co-cultured with U87-MG (in Boyden chambers) and U87-MG co-cultured with MSC-4 (in Boyden chambers).

Risk of T1D progression in islet autoantibody positive children can be further stratified using expression patterns of multiple genes implicated in peripheral blood lymphocyte activation and function

Project description:To identify genes with expression levels that are associated with T1D progression from AbP (islet autoantibody positive), global gene expression changes were analyzed in AbP subjects with different T1D progression rate. Total RNA were obtained from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of total 36 AbP subjects with different T1D progression rate. Microarray was carried out to analyze gene expression and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log-rank test were used to compare differences in diabetes-free survival between groups classified based on single gene expression.

Comparison of microRNA Profiling Platforms (BeadChip)

Project description:Global miRNA expression profiling of human malignancies is gaining popularity in both basic and clinically driven research. But to date, the majority of such analyses have used microarrays and quantitative real-time PCR. With the introduction of digital count technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) and the NanoString nCounter System, we have at our disposal, many more options. To make effective use of these different platforms, the strengths and pitfalls of several miRNA profiling technologies were assessed, including a microarray platform, NGS technologies and the NanoString nCounter System. These results were compared to gold-standard quantitative real-time PCR. Comparison of non-small cell lung cancer cell lines grown in vitro (n = 5) and in vivo (n = 5) as xenograft models.

Genome-wide analysis of androgen receptor (AR) SUMOylation effects on gene expression (HEK293).

Project description:Androgen receptor (AR) plays an important regulatory role during prostate cancer development. ARM-bM-^@M-^Ys transcriptional activity is regulated by androgenic ligands, but also by post-translational modifications. To study the role of the AR SUMOylation in genuine chromatin environment, we compared androgen-regulated gene expression and AR chromatin occupancy in PC-3 prostate cancer and HEK293 cell lines stably expressing wild-type (wt) or SUMOylation site-mutated AR (AR-K386R,K520R). Our genome-wide gene expression analyses reveal that the SUMOylation modulates the AR function in a target gene and pathway selective manner. The transcripts that are differentially regulated by androgen and SUMOylation are linked to cellular movement, cell death, cellular proliferation, cellular development and cell cycle. In line with these data, SUMOylation mutant AR cells proliferate faster and are more sensitive to apoptosis. Moreover, ChIP-seq analyses show that the SUMOylation modulates the chromatin occupancy of AR on many loci in a fashion that parallels with their differential androgen-regulated expression. De novo motif analyses show that other transcription factor-binding motifs are differentially enriched at the wtAR- and the AR-K386R,K520R-preferred genomic binding positions. Taken together, our data indicate that SUMOylation does not simply repress the AR activity, but it regulates ARM-bM-^@M-^Ys interaction with the chromatin and the receptorM-bM-^@M-^Ys target gene selection. Isogenic HEK293 cells stably expressing wild-type AR (wtAR) or SUMOylation-defective AR (AR-K2R) were treated 24 h with 10 nM R1881 or vehicle (EtOH). All conditions were performed in triplicate. The effect on gene expression was assessed by microarray.
