RNA sequencing of control siRNA and Zmiz1 siRNA treated Human dermal lymphatic endothelial cell (HDLECs)

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Zinc Finger MIZ-Type Containing 1 (Zmiz1) is a member of the PIAS family of protein and function as a transcriptional coactivator of Notch, Androgen Receptor (AR), p53, Estrogen Receptor (ER), and Smad3/4 . Despite Zmiz1 critical role in angiogenesis, its role in lymphatic vasculature is unknown. Here, we use HDLECs cell line to profile transcriptional changes upon Zmiz1 knockdown using siRNA. Methods: Total RNA was extracted from control and Zmiz1 siRNA transfected HDLECs using GeneJET RNA Purification Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, K0732) following the manufacturer instructions. RNA concentration and RNA integrity (RIN) number were determined using Qubit RNA High Sensitivity Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Q32852) and Bioanalyzer RNA 6000 Nano assay kit (Agilent, 5067-1511) respectively. RNA library was prepared using TruSeq RNA Library Prep Kit v2 (Illumina, RS-122-2001) according to the manufacturer instructions. mRNA library was quantified using Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Q32851) and verified using the Bioanalyzer DNA1000 assay kit (Agilent, 5067-1505). Verified samples were sequenced using the NextSeq1000/2000 P2 Reagents (200 Cycles) v3 (Illumina, 20046812) on a Nextseq1000/2000. Sequenced reads were aligned to the human (hg19) reference genome with RNA-Seq alignment tool (STAR aligner). The aligned reads were used to quantify mRNA expression and determine differentially expressed genes using the RNA-Seq Differential Expression tool (version 1.0.1). Both alignment and differential expression analysis were performed using the tools in the illumina BaseSpace Sequence Hub. Results: We found 2,228 differentially expressed genes of which 1,115 genes were upregulated while 1,113 genes were downregulated. Downregulated genes were enriched in biological processes such as lymph vessel development, cell migration and heart valve development. Conclusions: We identify Zmiz1 regulates Prox1 in lymphatic endothelial cells
