Project description:The extracellular matrix is essential for tissue formation and regeneration through the control of cellular behavior. Deregulation of extracellular matrix components is associated to disease, including neurodegeneration. After peripheral nerve injury, Schwann cells guide regrowing axons to their targets. These glial cells migrate collectively and provide an extracellular environment to enable neural repair. How this occurs remains poorly understood. Here, we show that Sox2 controls fibronectin fibrillogenesis in Schwann cells to provide a highly oriented extracellular matrix, which supports their rapid collective migration with a continuous cellular flow. Sox2 directly activates fibronectin expression in Schwann cells, leading to an increase in fibrillogenesis and cellular huddling. Accordingly, loss of fibrillogenesis leads to glial disassembly and disorganized axon regrowth. In vivo, 7 days post nerve injury, we found that pro-regenerative Schwann cells co-express Sox2 and the EIIIA-containing fibronectin splicing isoform. This mechanism is conserved in mammals, including humans, but absent in zebrafish. Taken together, our results demonstrate that Sox2 directly controls fibrillogenesis and provide a novel mechanism for the modification of the environmental architecture by glial cells during neuronal repair.

Project description:To identify candidate downstream target genes of SOX2 in gastric cancer cells, we transiently expressed exogenous SOX2 in a gastric cancer cell line NUGC3 and analyzed significant changes of gene expression. NUGC3 cells were infected with the optimum 20 MOI (infectious units/cell) of SOX2- or control GFP-expressing adenoviral vectors. At 72 h after infection, the cells were harvested for cDNA microarray analysis.

Project description:Protein-protein proximity of core pluripotency transcription factors plays an important role during cell reprogramming. Pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cell identity is controlled by a trio of transcription factors: Sox2, Oct4, and Nanog. These proteins often bind to closely localized genomic sites. The precise mode by which Sox2, Oct4, and Nanog interact with DNA is likely to make a crucial contribution to their function. Here, a detailed protocol for in vivo detection and quantitative analysis of protein-protein proximity of Sox2 and Oct4 using Proximity Utilizing Biotinylation (PUB) method based on the use of the BAP/BirA (target/enzyme) system is described. The method includes design and cloning of DNA plasmid construct, transient transfection of HEK293T cells, Western blot analysis of nuclei fraction and LC-MS/MS analysis. Experiments with coexpression of BAP-X+BirA-Y (X, Y=Sox2, Oct4 and GFP as control) revealed strong biotinylation level of target proteins when X and Y were pluripotency transcription factors compared with control when X=GFP. Since mass spectrometry provides both high sensitivity and more accurate quantification of data a modified workflow was used, in which SDS-PAGE step was eliminated and His-tagged BAP-fused proteins from cell lysate were purified in 6M guanidine HCl buffer, washed, propionylated, digested directly on the Ni sepharose beads using trypsin and analysed on Q-TOF Impact II instrument. Using mass spectrometry allows making quantitative estimation of in vivo interaction of BAP-Sox2 and BirA-Oct4 which was demonstrated by measuring ratios of biotinylation levels of BAP fused either with Sox2 or GFP at different biotin pulse times. After vector preparation this protocol can be completed in seven working days.

Project description:We have identified SOX2 as a new oncogene and a likely driver of recurrent 3q26.3 amplifications in lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma. SOX2 is a crucial transcription factor implicated in Embryonic and Neural Stem Cells, that we found widely activatd in human lung SCC. This part of the study aimed at analyzing the transcriptomic consequences of SOX2 overexpression in a simple in vitro model (human lung squamous immortalized cells). Human lung squamous BEAS-2B cells were transduced for Control or SOX2 expression, and their transcriptomes compared using Affymetrix arrays.

Project description:Only a minority of medulloblastoma cells can self-renew and sustain tumor growth. In the Patched1+/- mouse model, these cells are quiescent and express the stem cell marker Sox2. We sought to define the gene expression profiling of these cells to gain insight into the molecular pathways that govern this population. Sox2-expressing and Sox2-negative cells were isolated from primary Sox2-eGFP;Patched1+/- tumors as GFP+ or GFP- tumors, respectively.

Project description:Pluripotent stem cell lines derived from embryos of different stages have distinct pluripotent ground states, but similar levels of the transcription factor Oct4. Epiblast-derived pluripotent stem cells (EpiSCs), in contrast to embryonic stem (ES) cells, cannot form chimeras. We show that EpiSCs express lower levels of the transcription factors Sox2 and Klf4 than ES cells and have limited reprogramming potential, as shown by cell fusion. Sox2 overexpression dramatically increases the reprogramming potential, chimera formation, and germline contribution of EpiSCs. Therefore, although Oct4 is essential for reprogramming, the level of Sox2 defines both the reprogramming capability and the pluripotent ground states. RNA samples to be analyzed on microarrays were prepared using Qiagen RNeasy columns with on-column DNA digestion. 300 ng of total RNA per sample was used as input into a linear amplification protocol (Ambion), which involved synthesis of T7-linked double-stranded cDNA and 12 hrs of in-vitro transcription incorporating biotin-labelled nucleotides. Purified and labelled cRNA was then hybridized for 18 hrs onto MouseRef-8 v2 expression BeadChips (Illumina) according to the manufacturer's instructions. After washing, as recommended, chips were stained with streptavidin-Cy3 (GE Healthcare) and scanned using the iScan reader (Illumina) and accompanying software. Samples were hybridized as biological replicates. 12 sample types were analyzed, each of them in duplicate. ESCm: Mouse ESC male; ESCf: Mouse ESC OG2 female; F9 EC: F9 EC (mouse embryonic carcinoma cell); F9-Sox2: F9 EC (mouse embryonic carcinoma cell) overexpressing wild type Sox2; EpiSCf: Mouse EpiSC OG2 female; Epi-Sox2f: Mouse EpiSC Sox2 (OG2 female) overexpressing wild type Sox2; P19 EC: P19 EC (mouse embryonic carcinoma cell); P19-Sox2: P19 EC (mouse embryonic carcinoma cell) overexpressing wild type Sox2; EpiSCm: Mouse EpiSC (GOF18 male) (duplicates); EpiSox2mL2: Mouse EpiSC Sox2 (GOF18 male) overexpressing wild type Sox2 cultured in condition EpiSC medium (CM); EpiSox2mE1: Mouse EpiSC Sox2 (GOF18 male) overexpressing wild type Sox2 cultured in ESC medium (ESC like1); EpiSox2mE2: Mouse EpiSC Sox2 (GOF18 male) overexpressing wild type Sox2 cultured in ESC medium (ESC like2).

Project description:Sox2 has been studied in several types of human solid tumors. The investigators found that Sox2 had higher expression level in colorectal cancer and metastatic tissues than normal tissues. So the investigators assumed that whether Sox2 plays an important role in the progression and migration of colon cancer.

Project description:The effects of Schwann cells on the neuro-stroma niche in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remain to be explored. Here, single-cell RNA-sequencing and spatial transcriptome analysis of PDAC tissues reveals that Schwann cells induce malignant subtypes of tumour cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts. Mass Spectrometry (MS) were performed to detected the potential functional factors secreted by Schwann cells.
