Transcription profiling of Xenopus tropicalis tadpole tail tissue regeneration following removal

Project description:In this experiment, we show transcription profiling of the Xenopus tropicalis tadpole tail tissue regeneration following removal. The tail tissues include its spinal cord, notochord, muscle, and dorsal aorta. We characterized the early, intermediate, and late stages of Xenopus tropicalis tail regeneration using the Xenopus tropicalis Affymetrix genome array in biological replicate.

Identification of differentially expressed genes in the mutant tail regression failed (trf) in Ciona intestinalis.

Project description:Tunicate ascidians exhibit metamorphosis that converts tadpole, swimming larva into immotile adult. In ascidian Ciona intestinalis, the mutant tail regression failed (trf) which shows defects in the metamorphosis was previously reported (Nakayama-Ishimura et al., 2009). In the metamorphosis process, trf larvae settle normally with their adhesive papillae, but do not start tail regression, papillae retraction and sensory vesicle retraction, while development of adult organs proceed. To understand the molecular mechanism of the metamorphosis, microarray analysis of trf mutant was performed.

Ouro proteins are not essential to tail regression during Xenopus tropicalis metamorphosis.

Project description:Tail regression is one of the most prominent transformations observed during anuran metamorphosis. A tadpole tail that is twice as long as the tadpole trunk nearly disappears within 3 days in Xenopus tropicalis. Several years ago, it was proposed that this phenomenon is driven by an immunological rejection of larval-skin-specific antigens, Ouro proteins. We generated ouro-knockout tadpoles using the TALEN method to reexamine this immunological rejection model. Both the ouro1- and ouro2-knockout tadpoles expressed a very low level of mRNA transcribed from a targeted ouro gene, an undetectable level of Ouro protein encoded by a target gene and a scarcely detectable level of the other Ouro protein from the untargeted ouro gene in tail skin. Furthermore, congenital athymic frogs were produced by Foxn1 gene modification. Flow cytometry analysis showed that mutant frogs lacked splenic CD8(+) T cells, which play a major role in cytotoxic reaction. Furthermore, T-cell-dependent skin allograft rejection was dramatically impaired in mutant frogs. None of the knockout tadpoles showed any significant delay in the process of tail shortening during the climax of metamorphosis, which shows that Ouro proteins are not essential to tail regression at least in Xenopus tropicalis and argues against the immunological rejection model.

Comprehensive RNA-Seq analysis of notochord-enriched genes induced during Xenopus tropicalis tail resorption.

Project description:Anuran metamorphosis is perhaps the most dramatic developmental process regulated by thyroid hormone (TH). One of the unique processes that occur during metamorphosis is the complete resorption of the tail, including the notochord. Interestingly, recent gene knockout studies have shown that of the two known vertebrate TH receptors, TR? and TR?, TR? appears to be critical for notochord regression during tail resorption in Xenopus tropicalis. To determine the mechanisms underlying notochord regression, we carried out a comprehensive gene expression analysis in the notochord during metamorphosis by using RNA-Seq analyses of whole tail at stage 60 before any noticeable tail length reduction, whole tail at stage 63 when the tail length is reduced by about one half, and the rest of the tail at stage 63 after removing the notochord. This allowed us to identify many notochord-enriched, metamorphosis-induced genes at stage 63. Future studies on these genes should help to determine if they are regulated by TR? and play any roles in notochord regression.

Transcription profiling of Xenopus laevis developing notochord

Project description:We screened for differentially expressed genes in the developing notochord using the Affymetrix microarray system in Xenopus laevis. At late gastrula, we dissected four regions from the embryo, anterior mesoderm, posterior mesoderm, notochord and presomitic mesoderm. Three types of comparison were carried out to generate a list of predominantly notochord expressed genes: (1) Posterior mesoderm vs. anterior mesoderm; notochord genes are expected to be increased since the notochord is located in the posterior mesoderm. (2) Posterior mesoderm vs. whole embryos; notochord genes are expected to be increased. (3) Notochord vs. somite. This comparison sub-divided the group of posterior mesodermal genes identified in (1) and (2). All tissues are dissected using tungsten needles. We first dissected dorsal tissue above the archenteron from late gastrula to early neurula. To loosen tissue, we treated the dissected dorsal explant in a 1% cysteine solution (pH 7.4) and removed the neuroectodermal layer. Anterior mesoderm was dissected corresponding to about the anterior one-third of the archenteron roof, and the rest was collected as posterior mesoderm. The posterior mesodermal explant was dissected into notochord and somites, following a clearly visible border between the two tissues. The accuracy of all dissection was confirmed by RT-PCR of marker genes.

Expression data from stage 54 Xenopus laevis larvae treated with 20 nM triiodothyronine (T3)

Expression data from stage 54 Xenopus laevis larvae treated with 20 nM triiodothyronine (T3)

Project description:Induction of Xenopus laevis larvae metamorphosis is dependent on exposure to TH. Metamorphosis involves the regression, growth or remodeling of almost all the tissues in the animals body. Metamorphosis in frogs is induced by thyroid hormone. Each organ system has a unique morphological and genetic program that it follows while undergoing metamorphosis involving both the upregulation and downregulation of genes. In this array we examined the change in gene expression in the tail of larvae undergoing precocious metamorphosis following induction with thyroid hormone. Whole stage 54 xenopus larvae were exposed to either vehicle for 48 hours or 20 nM T3 for 6 or 48 hours. Total RNA was then purified from tail tissue and the samples were examined by hybridization to the Affymetrix Xenopus array. Developmental stage 51-54 Xenopus larvae were selected because these stages do not express high levels of endogenous T3 but are still capable of morphologically responding to exposure.

Expression data from chordoma and notochord (microarray)

Project description:Chordoma is a rare malignant tumor thought to originate from embryonic notochord. However, no molecular comparison of chordoma and notochord has been performed to date, leaving the identities of dysregulated pathways unclear. Absence of a molecular description of a control tissue clouds our understanding of chordoma. Thus, we conducted an unbiased comparison of chordoma and notochord using gene expression profiling to clarify chordoma’s tissue of origin and identify novel drug targets
