Global gene expression profiling analysis reveals reduction of stemness after B-RAF inhibition in colorectal cancer cell lines.

ABSTRACT: Cancer cell differentiation is an important field of discussion in the light of cancer stem cells. In a recent study by Herr et al. (2015) "B-RAF inhibitors induce epithelial differentiation in BRAF-mutant colorectal cancer cells" we described how inhibition of mutant BRAF in colorectal cancer cell lines induces cell re-differentiation that is correlated with the loss of tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. We used Illumina HumanHT-12 v4 Expression BeadChip to characterize the gain of differentiation of PLX4720-treated 3D cultures of HT29 and Colo-205 cells. Here, we describe the experimental design and statistical analysis that were performed on the data set leading to the above hypothesis. The data are publicly available at the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database under the accession number GSE50791.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Trichome hairs affect diverse agronomic characters such as seed weight and yield, prevent insect damage and reduce loss of water but their molecular control has not been extensively studied in soybean. Several detailed models for trichome development have been proposed for Arabidopsis thaliana, but their applicability to important crops such as cotton and soybean is not fully known. RESULTS: Two high throughput transcript sequencing methods, Digital Gene Expression (DGE) Tag Profiling and RNA-Seq, were used to compare the transcriptional profiles in wild-type (cv. Clark standard, CS) and a mutant (cv. Clark glabrous, i.e., trichomeless or hairless, CG) soybean isoline that carries the dominant P1 allele. DGE data and RNA-Seq data were mapped to the cDNAs (Glyma models) predicted from the reference soybean genome, Williams 82. Extending the model length by 250 bp at both ends resulted in significantly more matches of authentic DGE tags indicating that many of the predicted gene models are prematurely truncated at the 5' and 3' UTRs. The genome-wide comparative study of the transcript profiles of the wild-type versus mutant line revealed a number of differentially expressed genes. One highly-expressed gene, Glyma04g35130, in wild-type soybean was of interest as it has high homology to the cotton gene GhRDL1 gene that has been identified as being involved in cotton fiber initiation and is a member of the BURP protein family. Sequence comparison of Glyma04g35130 among Williams 82 with our sequences derived from CS and CG isolines revealed various SNPs and indels including addition of one nucleotide C in the CG and insertion of ~60 bp in the third exon of CS that causes a frameshift mutation and premature truncation of peptides in both lines as compared to Williams 82. CONCLUSION: Although not a candidate for the P1 locus, a BURP family member (Glyma04g35130) from soybean has been shown to be abundantly expressed in the CS line and very weakly expressed in the glabrous CG line. RNA-Seq and DGE data are compared and provide experimental data on the expression of predicted soybean gene models as well as an overview of the genes expressed in young shoot tips of two closely related isolines.
