Project description:Colorectal cancer is an epigenetically heterogeneous disease, the extent to which is unclear. In this study we interrogate the methylome of 216 unselected colorectal cancers using Illumina HumanMethylation450 arrays, and correlate these data with transcript profiles and exome sequencing analysis to elucidate the degree of epigenetic dysregulation in colorectal cancers.

Project description:The term placenta is a highly vascularized tissue and is usually discarded upon birth. Our objective was to isolate clinically relevant quantities of fetal endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) from human term placenta and to compare them to the well-established donor-matched umbilical cord blood (UCB)-derived ECFCs. A sorting strategy was devised to enrich for CD45-CD34+CD31Lo cells prior to primary plating to obtain pure placental ECFCs (PL-ECFCs) upon culture. UCB-ECFCs were derived using a well-described assay. PL-ECFCs were fetal in origin and expressed the same cell surface markers as UCB-ECFCs. Most importantly, a single term placenta could yield as many ECFCs as 27 UCB donors. PL-ECFCs and UCB-ECFCs had similar in vitro and in vivo vessel forming capacities and restored mouse hind limb ischemia in similar proportions. Gene expression profiles were only minimally divergent between PL-ECFCs and UCB-ECFCs, probably reflecting a vascular source versus a circulating source. Finally, PL-ECFCs and UCB-ECFCs displayed similar hierarchies between high and low proliferative colonies. We report a robust strategy to isolate ECFCs from human term placentas based on their cell surface expression. This yielded much larger quantities of ECFCs than UCB, but the cells were comparable in immunophenotype, gene expression, and in vivo functional ability. We conclude that PL-ECFCs have significant bio-banking and clinical translatability potential.

Project description:Cerebral malaria is the most deadly manifestation of infection with Plasmodium falciparum. The pathology of cerebral malaria is characterised by the accumulation of infected erythrocytes in the microvasculature of the brain, due to parasite adhesins on the surface of infected erythrocytes binding to human receptors on microvascular endothelial cells. The parasite and host molecules involved in this interaction are unknown. We used the Human Brain Endothelial Cell line HBEC-5i to identify the malaria parasite ligands responsible for binding to human brain endothelial cells. Three P. falciparum strains (HB3, 3D7 and IT/FCR3) were selected for binding to HBEC5i and the whole transcriptome of selected and unselected parasites was analysed using a variant surface antigen-supplemented microarray chip. After selection, the only highly upregulated genes were a subset of group A-like var genes (HB3var3, 3D7_PFD0020c, ITvar7 and ITvar19), that showed 11 to >100-fold higher transcription levels in selected parasites. These genes are highly diverse in sequence, but do however show strong similarities in PfEMP1 architecture. Antibodies raised to the HB3var3 variant recognized the surface of infected erythrocytes and abolished the binding of infected erythrocytes to brain endothelial cells. The subset of Group A PfEMP1 variants identified here provides a new target for interventions to treat or prevent cerebral malaria. Unselected Plasmodium falciparum parasites (Uns) only poorly cytoadhere to human brain endothelial cells (HBEC-5i). Plasmodium falciparum HB3, 3D7 and IT/FCR3 strains were selected for binding to HBEC-5i (HB3-HBEC1, HB3-HBEC2, HB3-HBEC-TNF, 3D7-HBEC and IT-HBEC). HBEC-selected and unselected cultures were tightly synchronised before a timecourse experiment was performed. 6 samples, named time points 1 to 6, were taken every 8 hours. 12μg of RNA from the unselected parasites (HB3-Uns, 3D7-Uns or IT-Uns) at each of the 6 time points was combined together to form the reference pool. The pool and 12μg of each individual time point sample from both selected and unselectedparasites were then used for cDNA synthesis. For HB3-HBEC1 (pilot experiment), each HB3-HBEC1 time point (pilot experiment) was hybridised directly with HB3-Uns1 time points. For microarray hybridizations, each cDNA sample was coupled to Cy5 (red dye) while Cy3 (green dye) was added to the pool. Cy5-labelled time point samples were mixed with the same amount of Cy3-labelled pool sample. The solution was loaded on a microarray slide and hybridized for 14–16 h.

Project description:HT29-DKO cells were stably transduced with lentiCas9-Blast (Addgene, #52962) and subsequently selected using Blasticidin. Then, 300 million HT29-DKO cells that constitutively express Cas9 were transduced with lentiGuide-Puro from the Brunello library at MOI 0.3. Cells were then selected with puromycin, expanded to 3 billion cells, and then pooled together and cryofrozen in aliquots. One hundred million cells were thawed constituting over 1000× genome coverage worth of mutagenized library. The cells were infecting with PeV-A1 or PeV-A2 at an MOI of 0.1. Virus-resistant colonies were harvested. The uninfected reference used was the unselected starting population. The unselected and selected cells were both processed with QIAamp DNA columns to purify the gDNA. A first round of PCR was used to amplify the guide RNA sequences encoded in the gDNA, followed by a second round of PCR to add the barcodes/adapters for amplicon sequencing. 2% agarose gels and a QIAquick gel extraction kit were used to purify the amplicons. The amplicons were then subjected to next-generation sequencing on a HiSeq instrument lane (Illumina) via Novogene.

Project description:eHAP or U87MG cells were stably transduced with lentiCas9-Blast (Addgene, #52962) and subsequently selected using Blasticidin. Then, 300 million eHAP or U87MG cells that constitutively express Cas9 were transduced with lentiGuide-Puro from the Brunello library at MOI 0.3. Cells were then selected with puromycin, expanded to 3 billion cells, and then pooled together and cryofrozen in aliquots. One hundred million cells were thawed constituting over 1000× genome coverage worth of mutagenized library. Twenty T175 flasks were used for the U87MG-based screen, while twelve T175 flasks were used for the eHAP-based screen. The cells were allowed to recover for 48 hours before infecting with ReoT3D at an MOI of 0.1. Obvious CPE was observed within 72 hours. eHAP-resistant colonies were harvested two weeks later, while U87MG-resistant colonies were harvested six weeks later. The uninfected reference used was the unselected starting population. The unselected and selected cells were both processed with QIAamp DNA columns to purify the gDNA. A first round of PCR was used to amplify the guide RNA sequences encoded in the gDNA, followed by a second round of PCR to add the barcodes/adapters for amplicon sequencing. 2% agarose gels and a QIAquick gel extraction kit were used to purify the amplicons.

Project description:Gene expression profiling was performed to define transcriptional programs associated with response to type II JAK2 inhibitor NVP-CHZ868 alone or in combination with dexamethasone in vitro and in vivo. MHH-CALL4 cells harboring a CRLF2 rearrangement and JAK2 I682F mutation were treated with vehicle, CHZ868, dexamethasone, or CHZ868 + dexamethasone combination for 12 hours in triplicate. RNA was then extracted for hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. CRLF2+ patient-derived xenografts (05-412, 05-440, and 05-537) were treated in vivo for 3 days with vehicle, CHZ868, dexamethasone, or CHZ868 + dexmathasone combination for 3 days and then sacrificed. Transcriptional profiling was performed on unselected splenocytes from these animals.

Project description:The CpG island methylator phenotype is common in both BRAF mutant colorectal cancer and their precursors, the sessile serrated adenoma (SSA). SSAs acquire dysplasia immediate prior to progressing to invasive cancer. Here we examine the methylome of the remnant non-dysplastic portion of dysplastic sessile serrated adenomas to identify changes that occur immediately prior to the development of overt histological dysplasia.

Project description:H1-HeLa cells were stably transduced with lentiCas9-Blast (Addgene, Plasmid #52962) and subsequently selected using blasticidin to generate constitutively expressing Cas9 H1-HeLa cells. A single Cas9-expressing H1-HeLa clone was then transduced with lentivirus without a selection marker to stably express CDHR3 C529Y (H1-HeLa+CDHR3). A single CDHR3-expressing H1-HeLa clone was then chosen based on RT-qPCR of CHDR3 expression and RV-C15 RNA levels for mutagenesis. 300 million of the H1-HeLa cells constitutively expressing CDHR3 and Cas9 were transduced with the lentiGuide-Puro from the GeCKO v2 library at a MOI of 0.3. Cells were selected using puromycin and heterogeneous H1-HeLa knockout cell populations were subsequently pooled together. The CRISPR genetic screens were started 10 days post transduction. >1000-fold coverage of mutagenized cells (libraries A and B) was infected with either RV-C15 (MOI=1 PFU/cell) or EV-D68 Missouri (MOI=1 PFU/cell). RV-C15 infection was repeated for an additional round at 6 days post-infection. As soon as appearance of visibly viable colonies was observed, populations of virus-resistant cells were pooled and harvested. Uninfected starting populations of mutagenized cells were used as the unselected reference. Total genomic DNA from both virus-resistant and uninfected cells was respectively extracted using QIAamp DNA Mini Kit (Qiagen). The inserted guide RNA sequences were retrieved from the genomic DNA by PCR amplification. The PCR products were then purified and subjected to NextSeq platform (Illumina) next-generation sequencing.
