Project description:Non-syndromic cleft lip/palate (NSCL/P) is a complex, frequent congenital malformation, determined by the interplay between genetic and environmental factors during embryonic development. Previous findings have appointed an aetiological overlap between NSCL/P and cancer, and alterations in similar biological pathways may underpin both conditions. Here, using a combination of transcriptomic profiling and functional approaches, we report that NSCL/P dental pulp stem cells exhibit dysregulation of a co-expressed gene network mainly associated with DNA double-strand break repair and cell cycle control (p = 2.88x10-2 M-bM-^@M-^S 5.02x10-9). This network included important genes for these cellular processes, such as BRCA1, RAD51, and MSH2, which are predicted to be regulated by transcription factor E2F1. Functional assays support these findings, revealing that NSCL/P cells accumulate DNA double-strand breaks upon exposure to H2O2. Furthermore, we show that E2f1, Brca1 and Rad51 involved in DNA repair are co-expressed in the developing embryonic orofacial primordia, and may act as a molecular hub playing a role in lip and palate morphogenesis. In conclusion, we show that cellular defences against DNA damage may take part in the pathogenesis of NSCL/P, in accordance with the hypothesis of aetiological overlap between this malformation and cancer. These results provide more information regarding the aetiology of NSCL/P and have the potential tocan potentially assist incontribute to the development of future preventive strategies. In order to analyze differences in gene expression between NSCL/P samples and controls we used 7 NSCL/P RNA samples extracted from dental pulp stem cells cultures and 6 control RNA samples also from dental pulp stem cells cultures, all in the same culture conditions. RNA samples were used in gene expression microarrays (Affymetrix HuGene 1.0 st chips).

Project description:Several signaling pathways require JMJD3 binding to promoters to activate the expression of target genes. Despite the known H3K27me3 demethylase activity of JMJD3 the transcriptional coactivator mechanism remains unclear. Here we reveal that JMJD3 promotes transcription of TGFb responsive genes through regulation of RNAPII progression on gene bodies. ChIPseq experiments demonstrate that upon TGFb treatment, JMJD3 and RNAPII.ser2P colocalyze extensively along intragenic regions of TGF target genes. M-BM- According to these data, genome wide analysis shows that JMJD3 dependent TGF target genes are enriched in H3K27me3 prior to TGF signaling pathway activation. M-BM- Further molecular analysis indicate that JMJD3 removes H3K27me3 and pave the way for the RNAPII.Overall, these findingsM-BM- uncover the mechanism ofM-BM- JMJD3 function in transcriptional activation We performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIPseq) of H3K27me3 mark in mouse neural stem cells growing under standard conditions. We also performed ChIPseq of elongating RNAPII (Ser2P) and JMJD3 in neural stem cells stimulated with TGFb cytokine.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests that in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) mutated RNA binding proteins acquire aberrant functions, leading to altered RNA metabolism with significant impact on encoded protein levels. Here, by taking advantage of a human induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (hiPSC)-based model, we aimed to gain insights on the impact of ALS mutant FUS on the motoneuron proteome. Label-free proteomics analysis by mass-spectrometry revealed upregulation of proteins involved in catabolic processes and oxidation-reduction, and downregulation of cytoskeletal proteins and factors directing neuron projection. Mechanistically, proteome alteration does not correlate with transcriptome changes. Rather, we observed a strong correlation with selective binding of mutant FUS to target mRNAs in their 3’UTR. Novel validated targets, selectively bound by mutant FUS only, include genes previously involved in familial or sporadic ALS, such as VCP, and regulators of membrane trafficking and cytoskeleton remodeling, such as ASAP1. These findings unveil a novel mechanism by which mutant FUS might intersect other pathogenic pathways in ALS patients’ motoneurons.

Project description:Studies of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) commonly describe the non-functional p53-p21 axis of the G1/S checkpoint pathway with subsequent relevance for cell cycle regulation and the DNA damage response (DDR). Importantly, p21 mRNA is clearly present and upregulated after the DDR in hESCs but p21 protein is not detectable. In this article, we provide evidence that expression of p21 protein is directly regulated by the microRNA pathway under standard culture conditions and after DNA damage. The DDR in hESCs leads to upregulation of tens of microRNAs, including hESC-specific microRNAs such as those of the miR-302 family, miR-371-372 family, or C19MC microRNA cluster. Most importantly, we show that the hESC-enriched microRNA family miR-302 (miR-302a, miR-302b, miR-302c, and miR-302d) directly contributes to regulation of p21 expression in hESCs and thus demonstrate a novel function for miR-302s in hESCS. The described mechanism elucidates the role of microRNAs in regulation of important molecular pathway governing the G1/S transition checkpoint before as well as after DNA damage. Karyotypically normal hESC lines CCTL-14 (46, XX, at passages 20M-bM-^@M-^S30 and 242M-bM-^@M-^S250, respectively) was used in this study (for detailed characterization of hESC lines see International Stem Cell Registry: http://www.iscr-admin). For UVC irradiation, culture media were aspirated and cells were washed once with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) without Mg2+ and Ca2+ (pH 7.4). For each time point, nine culture dishes were independently irradiated with a dose of 3 J/m2. Cells were then further incubated in culture media (37M-BM-0C/5% CO2) until they were harvested at 4, 8, and 16 hrs, respectively, post-UVC treatment. Differentiation and culture of NPCs derived from hESCs To induce neural differentiation, we utilized a protocol based on embryoid body (EB) formation with simultaneous all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) treatment. Colonies of hESCs were transferred to a non-adherent cell culture dish in the presence of differentiation media [DMEM/F12:Neurobasal 1:1, N2, B27 (Invitrogen), 2 mmol/l L-Glutamine (all media components from Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 1M-CM-^W MEM non-essential amino acids, 0.5% penicillin-streptomycin, 100 M-BM-5mol/l M-NM-2-2 mercaptoethanol (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and 20 ng/ml FGF-2 (PeproTech, Rocky Hill, NJ, USA)]. RA was added (Sigma-Aldrich, concentration 0.5 M-BM-5mol/l) into fresh differentiation media on days 6, 10, and 14 after the beginning of EB development. On day 16, cells were dissociated using Accutase (Sigma-Aldrich) and plated on a gelatin-coated cell culture dish in maintenance media (DMEM/F12, N2, B27, L-Glutamine, MEM non-essential amino acids, 0.5% penicillin-streptomycin, 100 M-BM-5mol/l M-NM-2-2 mercaptoethanol, and 20 ng/ml FGF-2). Cells were passaged twice and subsequently harvested for RNA isolation.
