Project description:Intestinal crypts isolated from Apcflox/flox; villin-CreERT mice were treated with Tamoxifen to induce the deletion of Apc. Tamoxifen-treated organoids were selected in the absence of Wnt agonists and then treated with TGF-beta. Total RNA obtained from Tamoxifen-treated, Apc-deleted intestinal organoids in the absence or presence of 3 ng/ml TGF-beta (18h).

Project description:The adult pancreas is capable of limited regeneration after injury, but has no defined stem cell population. The cell types and molecular signals that govern the production of new pancreatic tissue are not well understood. Here we show that inactivation of the SCF-type E3 ubiquitin ligase substrate recognition component Fbw7 induces pancreatic ductal cells to reprogram into β-cells. The induced β-cells resemble islet β-cells in morphology and histology, express genes essential for β-cell function, and release insulin upon glucose challenge. Thus, loss of Fbw7 appears to reawaken an endocrine developmental differentiation program in adult pancreatic ductal cells. Our study highlights the plasticity of seemingly differentiated adult cells, identifies Fbw7 as a master regulator of cell fate decisions in the pancreas, and reveals adult pancreatic duct cells as a latent multipotent cell type. We used microarray to compare adult mouse fbw7 knock out ductal cells with bonafide beta cells In order to isolate fbw7 ko, fbw7 wt ductal cells and beta cells we used adult mice with the following genotypes: MIP-GFP (beta cells are constitutively labelled with GFP), Ck19-CreERT; R26-LSL-YFP; Fbw7 +/+ (ductal cells are labelled with YFP upon tamoxifen injection) and Ck19-CreERT; R26-LSL-YFP; Fbw7 F/F mice (ductal cells are labelled with YFP upon tamoxifen injection). 30000 GFP+ cells were isolated by FACS-sorting. RNA was extracted and amplified using NuGEN kit.

Project description:We generated KA mutant mice (Krt14-CreERT + ABCA12-flox/flox) and controls (ABCA12-flox/flox) that enabled us to assess the effects of deleting a critical barrier gene, ABCA12, in the skin epidermis following tamoxifen treatment. These studies identified numerous differentially expressed genes (DEGs) upon barrier disruption/ABCA12 deletion, including compensatory upregulation of genes involved with epidermal differentiation and barrier function. Overall, this data-set provides a global view of molecular changes that occur in adult mouse skin following barrier perturbation.

Project description:B cell specification and identity are controlled by transcription factors and cytokine receptors that drive the expression of stage-specific transcriptomes during lineage progression. A key feature of these mechanisms is the repression of inappropriate transcription. Here, we utilized RNA-seq to demonstrate that chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 4 (CHD4), an ATPase/helicase subunit of Mi-2/NuRD chromatin remodeling complexes, is essential for B cell identity. In mice that lack CHD4 selectively in the B lineage, defects include developmental arrest at the early pro-B cell stage. While many pro-B-specific genes are expressed in the mutant cells, transcripts that are normally restricted to other tissues including pancreas and bone are expressed out of context. Moreover, CHD4-deficient pro-B cells do not proliferate in response to IL-7, exhibit greatly decreased utilization of distal VH segments and accumulate DNA damage. Together, our data confirm the importance of CHD4 and NuRD complexes for the generation of functional B cells.

Project description:Glioblastomas (GBM) harbor subpopulations of therapy-resistant tumor initiating cells (TICs) that are self-renewing and multipotent. To understand the regulation of the TIC state, we performed an image-based screen for genes regulating GBM TIC maintenance and identified ZFHX4, a 397-kDa transcription factor. ZFHX4 is required to maintain TIC-associated phenotypes in vitro, suggesting that ZFHX4 regulates TIC differentiation, and its suppression increases glioma-free survival in intracranial xenografts. ZFHX4 interacts with CHD4, a core member of the NuRD (nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase) complex. ZFHX4 and CHD4 bind to overlapping sets of genomic loci and control similar gene expression programs. Using expression data derived from GBM patients, we demonstrate ZFHX4 is a master regulator of CHD4-mediated gene expression. These observations define ZFHX4 as a regulatory factor that links the chromatin remodeling NuRD complex and the GBM TIC state. Examination of binding of ZFHX4 and CHD4 across the human genome, using the 0308 tumor initiating cell line. Two replicates for each protein, compared to whole cell extract inputs.

Project description:ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers modulate gene expression by regulating genome accessibility and can contribute to tumorigenesis. In fusion-positive rhabdomyosarcoma (FP-RMS), we have previously identified the chromatin remodeler and NuRD subunit CHD4 as an essential gene for tumor survival. Here, we demonstrate that the FP-RMS vulnerability to CHD4 goes beyond its function as a NuRD member. Mechanistically, CHD4 interacts with BRD4 and co-localizes with the tumor driver and fusion protein PAX3-FOXO1 at super-enhancers where it generates a chromatin architecture permissive for the binding of the fusion protein. This allows the positioning of RNA polymerase 2 at promoters and the expression of the oncogenic program of PAX3-FOXO1. Additionally, analysis of genome-wide cancer dependency databases identifies CHD4 amongst the NuRD subunits as general novel cancer vulnerability. Our findings describe, for the first time, CHD4 as a regulator of super-enhancer-mediated gene expression and establish this chromatin remodeler as an unexpected broad tumor susceptibility.
