Project description:Differences in the amount of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) that persists into adulthood affect the severity of sickle cell disease and the beta-thalassemia syndromes. Genetic association studies have identified sequence variants in the gene BCL11A that influence HbF levels. Here we examine BCL11A as a potential regulator of HbF expression. The high HbF BCL11A genotype is associated with reduced BCL11A expression. Moreover, abundant expression of full-length forms of BCL11A is developmentally restricted to adult erythroid cells. Down-regulation of BCL11A expression in primary adult erythroid cells leads to robust HbF expression. Consistent with a direct role of BCL11A in globin gene regulation, we find that BCL11A occupies several discrete sites in the beta-globin gene cluster. BCL11A emerges as a therapeutic target for reactivation of HbF in beta-hemoglobin disorders. BCL11A siRNA label: B, NT siRNA label: N Experiment Overall Design: Microarray expression analysis from CD34-derived erythroid progenitors treated with either non-targeting (NT) control siRNAs or BCL11A targeting siRNAs. Six samples from the NT control and six samples from the BCL11A siRNA treatment are included. Cells were harvested on day 7 of erythroid differentiation after introduction of siRNAs on day 0 of the differentiation protocol. Experiment Overall Design: 6 BCL11A siRNA datasets, 6 control (NT) datasets

Project description:Cyclin C was cloned as a growth-promoting G1 cyclin, and several studies postulated a role for cyclin C in driving cell proliferation. Moreover, cyclin C, together with its kinase partner, the cyclin-dependent kinase CDK8, is believed to represent an essential component of basal transcriptional machinery where it globally represses gene expression. However, the function of cyclin C in vivo has never been addressed. Here we show that in the living organism cyclin C acts as a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor, through its function of controlling Notch1 oncogene levels. Cyclin C activates an M-bM-^@M-^\orphanM-bM-^@M-^] CDK19 kinase, as well as CDK8 and CDK3. These cyclin C-CDK complexes phosphorylate Notch1 intracellular domain (ICN1), which allows binding of ICN1 to Fbw7 and triggers ICN1 polyubiquitination. Genetic ablation of cyclin C blocks ICN1 phosphorylation, disrupts Fbw7 binding, and decreases ICN1 ubiquitination in vivo, thereby strongly elevating ICN1 levels in several compartments of cyclin C knockout mice. Ablation of cyclin C, or cyclin C heterozygosity collaborate with other oncogenic lesions and accelerate development of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) in cyclin Cdeficient mice. Furthermore, the locus encoding cyclin C is heterozygously deleted in a significant fraction of human T-ALL, and these tumors express reduced cyclin C levels. In addition, we describe point mutations in human T-ALL tumors that render cyclin C-CDK unable to phosphorylate ICN1. These studies reveal that in sharp contrast to all other cyclin proteins, cyclin C functions as a growth-suppressor in vivo, and suggest that human tumor cells develop different strategies to evade cyclin C inhibitory function. Comparison of wild-type mouse embryonic fibroblasts (n=3 biological replicates) versus cyclin C knockout MEFs (n=3), wild-type mouse embryonic stem cells (n=3) versus cyclin C knockout ESC (n=3), wild-type mouse embryonic brain (n=3) versus cyclin C knockout embryonic brain (n=3)

Project description:Megakaryocyte (MK) differentiation is well described in morphologic terms but its molecular counterparts and the basis for platelet release are incompletely understood. We profiled mRNA expression in populations of primary mouse MKs representing successive differentiation stages. Genes associated with DNA replication are highly expressed in young MKs, in parallel with endomitosis. Intermediate stages are characterized by disproportionate expression of genes associated with the cytoskeleton, cell migration and G-protein signaling, whereas terminally mature MKs accumulate hemostatic factors, including many membrane proteins. We used these expression profiles to extract a reliable panel of molecular markers for MKs of early, intermediate or advanced differentiation, and establish its value using mouse models of defective thrombopoiesis resulting from absence of GATA-1, NF-E2 or tubulinß1. Computational analysis of the promoters of late-expressed MK genes identified new candidate targets for NF-E2, a critical transcriptional regulator of platelet release. One such gene encodes the kinase adaptor protein LIMS1/PINCH1, which is highly expressed in MKs and platelets and significantly reduced in NF-E2-deficient cells. Transactivation studies and chromatin immunoprecipitation implicate Lims1 as a direct target of NF-E2 regulation. Attribution of stagespecific genes, in combination with various applications, thus constitutes a powerful way to study MK differentiation and platelet biogenesis Experiment Overall Design: MK progenitors expand in mouse bone marrow or fetal liver cell preparations cultured with thrombopoietin, and mature over 5-6 days in vitro. After 3 days of culture, a significant fraction of cells shows features of committed MK progenitors, and numerous terminally mature, proplatelet-forming MKs appear by day 5. Because isolation of cell populations that correspond to sequential stages in MK differentiation is hindered by the lack of synchrony in primary MK cultures, we applied flow cytometry to harvest sub-populations that are substantially enriched for MKs with defined properties. High surface expression of the lineage marker CD41 identified MKs, whereas forward-scatter (FSC) properties distinguished cells on the basis of size. We collected thrombopoietic culture suspensions from days 3, 4 and 6, and sorted populations by flow cytometry. RNAs were prepared from sorted cells to probe Affymetrix MOE430A mouse oligonucleotide arrays.

Project description:Enterocytes assemble dietary lipids into chylomicron particles that are taken up by intestinal lacteal vessels and peripheral tissues. Although chylomicrons are known to assemble in part within membrane secretory pathways, the modifications required for efficient vascular uptake are unknown. We report that the transcription factor Pleomorphic adenoma gene-like 2 (PLAGL2) is essential for this aspect of dietary lipid metabolism. PlagL2-/- mice die from post-natal wasting owing to failure of fat absorption. Lipids modified in the absence of PlagL2 exit from enterocytes but fail to enter interstitial lacteal vessels. Dysregulation of enterocyte genes closely linked to intracellular membrane transport identified candidate regulators of critical steps in chylomicron assembly. PlagL2 thus regulates essential and poorly understood aspects of dietary lipid absorption and its deficiency represents an authentic animal model with implications for amelioration of obesity or the metabolic syndrome. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was extracted from 4 knockout and 4 wild-type mouse small intestines at 18.5 dpc using the Macherey-Nagel Nucleospin kit. cRNA synthesis and labeling, hybridization to Affymetrix (Santa Clara, CA) MOE430 2.0 expression arrays, and data acquisition occurred on the Affymetrix GeneChip Instrument System.

Project description:Microarray gene expression analysis was performed in MCF7 cells transduced with a non-specific shRNA or PDEF-targeting shRNA, and both subjected to hormone depletion for 48 hours. Analyses of differentially expressed genes combined with gene ontology revealed a downregulation of cell cycle related-genes and an upregulation of apoptosis-related genes in PDEF knockdown cells. These target genes constitute potential effectors of the pro-survival role of PDEF. Four samples were harvested after lentiviral infection with either non-specific shRNA control or PDEF-targetting shRNA. All samples were subjected to hormone depletion for 48 hours. Each condition was performed in duplicate

Project description:Background: Clinical trial and epidemiological data support that the cardiovascular effects of estrogen are complex, including a mixture of both potentially beneficial and harmful effects. In animal models, estrogen protects females from vascular injury and inhibits atherosclerosis. These effects are mediated by estrogen receptors (ERs), which when bound to estrogen can bind to DNA to directly regulate transcription. ERs can also activate several cellular kinases by inducing a M-bM-^@M-^\rapidM-bM-^@M-^] non-nuclear signaling cascade. However, the biologic significance of this rapid signaling pathway has been unclear. Methods and Results: Here, we develop a novel transgenic mouse in which rapid signaling is blocked by over-expression of a peptide that prevents ERs from interacting with the scaffold protein, striatin (the Disrupting Peptide Mouse, DPM). Microarray analysis of ex vivo-treated mouse aortas demonstrates that rapid ER signaling plays an important role in E2-mediated gene regulatory responses. Disruption of ER-striatin interactions also eliminates the ability of E2 to stimulate cultured endothelial cell migration and to inhibit cultured vascular smooth muscle cell growth. The importance of these findings is underscored by in vivo experiments demonstrating loss of estrogen-mediated protection against vascular injury in the DPM mouse following carotid artery wire injury. Conclusions: Taken together, these results support that rapid, non-nuclear ER signaling contributes to the transcriptional regulatory functions of ER, and is essential for many of the vasoprotective effects of estrogen. These findings also identify the rapid ER signaling pathway as a potential target for the development of novel therapeutic agents. Transgenic disrupting peptide mice (DPM) express the Estrogen Receptor (ER) alpha amino acids 176-253 peptide under CMV promoter control. This peptide blocks interactions between ER and striatin, which inhibits rapid non-genomic signaling by ER to cellular kinases. Female WT and DPM mice (4 mice per sample) were overiectomized, and 1 week later aortas were harvested and treated + 10 nM beta-estradiol (E2) or + EtOH vehicle (Veh) for 4 hrs ex vivo. Total RNA was collected, reverse transcribed to cDNA and used to probe Affymetrix mouse 430.A 2.0 arrays.
