Project description:Basal cell carcinoma initiating cells undergo profound and rapid reprogramming into embryonic hair follicle progenitor like fate upon SmoM2 expression. Activation of Wnt/M-NM-2-catenin signaling pathways is required in a cell autonomous manner for the reprogramming of adult IFE progenitors into EHFP-like fate as well as for tumor initiation. We used MA to define the molecular changes that occur in basal cell carcinoma initiating cells form the first oncogenic hit to the development of invasive tumor and further on to investigate the role of Wnt/M-NM-2-catenin signaling activation in molecular changes occurring early during BCC development. Basal interfollicular cells expressing SmoM2 were FACS isolated at different stages of tumor development and in M-NM-2-catenin LOF condition for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. By comparing the transcriptional profile of SmoM2 expressing cells with FACS-isolated cells from littermate control mice, we determined a list of genes differentially regulated by SmoM2 expression as specific SmoM2 signature.

Project description:Abelson virus (v-Abl)-transformed pre-B cell lines from BM of dcrfl/fl; R26R-yfp (4470; 4475) and dcrfl/+; R26R-yfp mice (4483) are treated with a transducible Cre protein (Tat-Cre) to induce deletion of the dicer-1 gene in vitro. Cre activity is conveniently monitored by concomitant expression of YFP. To obtain Dicer KO cells, YFP+ cells from dcrfl/fl; R26R-yfp (4470_YFP; 4475_YFP) cultures treated with Tat-cre were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and further propagated in cell culture. As controls, we used non-deleted, YFP- cells sorted from dcrfl/fl; R26R-yfp cultures (4470; 4475) treated with Tat-cre, and YFP+ deleted cells from dcrfl/+; R26R-yfp cultures (4483_YFP). To validate this system, various cell populations were sorted and analyzed for Dicer protein and miRNA expression. In the Dicer KO pro-B cell lines, Western analysis indicated that Dicer protein was efficiently ablated, and Northern blots demonstrated that the levels of mature miR-17 and miR-191 were drastically reduced.

Project description:To unravel the potential cooperative roles of oxygen-regulated signaling pathways; von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor protein and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) transcription factors, we have generated mutant mice with; Vhlh, Vhlh/Hif1α, Vhlh/Hif2α and Vhlh/Hif1α/Hif2α gene alleles floxed. Subsequently primary kidney cells were isolated, cultured and infected with Adenoviruses bearing either Cre/GFP or GFP expression only. Agilent cDNA microarrays were utilized to compare the gene expression profiles of the kidney epithelial cells from aforementioned cell cultures to gain insight about the molecules and signaling pathways that drive aberrant cellular proliferation in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). 24 independent biological samples from 4 genetic experimental conditions were hybridized in two- color format on 13 Mouse GE 4x44K v2 Microarray Kit (Design ID 026655) arrays. Eventual dye specific hybridization effects were controlled with dye swap on biological replicates. For an each experimental condition 3 arrays were use, except of one where 4 arrays were used (one sample combination in repetition with a dye swap). For the final analysis the gene expression levels were dye effect corrected and values for biological replicates were averaged to obtain a matrix with gene expression levels for 4 independent biological (1. Vhlh-/-, 2. Vhlh-/-/Hif1α-/-, 3. Vhlh-/-/Hif2α-/- and 4. Vhlh-/-/Hif1α-/-/Hif2α-/-) conditions.

Project description:The skin interfollicular epidermis (IFE) is the first barrier against the external environment and its maintenance is critical for survival. Two seemingly opposite theories have been proposed to explain IFE homeostasis. One posits that IFE is maintained by a long-lived slow-cycling stem cell (SC) population that give rise to short-lived transit-amplifying (TA) cell progeny, while the other suggests that homeostasis is achieved by a single committed progenitor (CP) that balances stochastic fate. Here, we probed the cellular heterogeneity within the IFE using two different inducible CREER targeting IFE progenitors. Quantitative analysis of clonal fate data and proliferation dynamics demonstrate the existence of two distinct proliferative cell compartments composed of slow-cycling SC and CP, both of which undergo population asymmetric self-renewal. However, following wounding, only SCs contribute substantially to the repair and long-term regeneration of the tissue, while CP cells make a minimal and transient contribution. Transcriptional profile of InvCREER/RosaYFP and K14CREER/RosaYFP targeted FACS-isolated alpha6 integrin-high CD34-neg basal cells from mouse tail epidermis. Skin epidermis was removed from tail bone and incubated overnight in HBSS (Gibco) 0.25% trypsin (Gibco) at 4M-BM-0C. Epidermis was separated from the dermis and incubated on a rocking plate (100 rpm) at room temperature for 5 min. Basal cells were mechanically separated from the epidermis by flushing 10 times under the epidermis. Tissues were then cut in pieces of 1 mm2 with scalpel, and trypsin was neutralized by adding DMEM medium (Gibco) supplemented with 2% Chelex Fetal Calf Serum (FCS). Samples were filtrated on 70 and 40M-BM-5m filter (Falcon). Immunostaining was performed using biotin-conjugated anti-CD34 (clone RAM34; BD Biosciences) PE-conjugated anti-M-NM-16-integrin (clone GoH3; BD biosciences). Primary antibodies were washed with 2% FCS/PBS and cells were incubated for 30 min in APC conjugated streptavidin (BD Biosciences) secondary antibodies, on ice, with shaking every 10 min. Living K14- and involucrin-expressing epidermal cells were gated by forward scatter, side scatter, negative staining for Hoechst dye and by following the YFP signal. Basal cells from the interfollicular epidermis were targeted using CD34 negative alpha 6 high gating. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis was performed using FACSAria I at high pressure (70 psi) and FACSDiva software (BD Biosciences). Sorted cells were harvested directly in the lysis buffer provided by the RNeasy microkit (QIAGEN) supplemented with 1M-BM-5l of beta-mercaptoethanol for every 100M-BM-5l of lysis buffer. RNA extraction was performed on freshly sorted cells according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocol.

Project description:Transcription factors related to the insect sex determination gene Doublesex (DMRT proteins) control sex determination and/or sexual differentiation in diverse metazoans. They also are implicated in transitions between sex-determining mechanisms during vertebrate evolution. In mice Dmrt1 is required for male gonadal differentiation in somatic cells and germ cells. DMRT1 also maintains male gonadal sex: its loss, even in adults, can trigger sexual fate reprogramming in which male Sertoli cells transdifferentiate into their female equivalents - granulosa cells - and testicular tissue reorganizes to a more ovarian morphology. Here we use a conditional Dmrt1 transgene to show that Dmrt1 is not only necessary but also sufficient to specify male cell identity in the mouse gonad. DMRT1 expression in the ovary silenced the female sex-maintenance gene Foxl2 and reprogrammed juvenile and adult granulosa cells into Sertoli-like cells, triggering formation of structures resembling male seminiferous tubules. DMRT1 can silence Foxl2 even in the absence of the testis-determining genes Sox8 and Sox9. mRNA profiling found that DMRT1 activates many testicular genes and downregulates ovarian genes and single cell RNA-seq in transdifferentiating cells identified dynamically expressed candidate mediators of this process. Strongly upregulated genes were highly enriched on chromosome X, consistent with sexually antagonistic functions. This study provides an in vivo example of single gene reprogramming of cell sexual identity. Our findings suggest a reconsideration of mechanisms involved in human disorders of sexual development (DSD) and empirically support evolutionary models where loss or gain of Dmrt1 function promotes establishment of new vertebrate sex determination systems.
