Transcriptomic profile of 3D spheroids developed from Astyanax Liver-derived cells - SFL and CFL.

ABSTRACT: Liver-derived cells from the surface and cave-adapted morphs of Astyanax mexicanus are valuable in vitro resources to explore the metabolism of these unique fish. However, 2D cultures have not yet fully mimicked the metabolic profile of the fish liver. Also, 3D culturing can modulate the transcriptomic profile of cells when compared to its 2D counterpart. Hence, to widen the range of metabolic pathways that can be depicted in vitro, we cultured the liver-derived SFL and CFL into 3D spheroids. We 3D cultured the cells at various cell seeding densities for 4 weeks and characterized the resultant transcriptome. The 3D cultured SFL and CFL cells indeed depicted a wider range of metabolic pathways as compared to the 2D culture. Further, the 3D spheroids also showed surface and cave-specific responses, making the spheroids an exciting system to study cave adaptation. Taken together, SFL and CFL spheroids prove to be a promising model for overall understanding of altered metabolism in Astyanax mexicanus.

An epigenetic mechanism for cavefish eye degeneration

Project description:Coding and non-coding mutations in DNA contribute significantly to phenotypic variability during evolution. However, less is known about the role of epigenetics in this process. Although previous studies have identified eye development genes associated with the loss of eyes phenotype in the Pachón blind cave morph of the Mexican tetra Astyanax mexicanus1-6, no inactivating mutations have been found in any of these genes2,3,7-10. Here we show that excess DNA methylation-based epigenetic silencing promotes eye degeneration in blind cave Astyanax mexicanus. By performing parallel analyses in Astyanax mexicanus cave and surface morphs and in the zebrafish Danio rerio, we have discovered that DNA methylation mediates eye-specific gene repression and globally regulates early eye development. The most significantly hypermethylated and down-regulated genes in the cave morph are also linked to human eye disorders, suggesting the function of these genes is conserved across the vertebrates. Our results show that changes in DNA methylation-based gene repression can serve as an important molecular mechanism generating phenotypic diversity during development and evolution.

Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in liver cells of Astyanax mexicanus [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Organisms adapt to and survive in environments with varying nutrient availability. Cis-regulatory changes play important roles in adaptation and phenotypic evolution. To what extent cis-regulatory elements contribute to metabolic adaptation is less understood. Here we have utilized a unique vertebrate model, Astyanax mexicanus, that survives in nutrient rich surface and nutrient deprived cave water to uncover gene regulatory networks in metabolic adaptation. We performed genome-wide analysis of accessible chromatin and histone modifications in the liver tissue of one surface and two independently derived cave populations, providing the first genome-wide epigenetic landscape in this organism. We find that many cis-regulatory elements differ between surface and the cavefish, while the two independently derived cave populations have evolved remarkably similar regulatory signatures. Changes in gene regulatory networks between the surface and cave morphotypes point to global changes in key metabolic pathways.

We find that many cis-regulatory elements differ between surface and the cavefish, while the two independently derived cave populations have evolved remarkably similar regulatory signatures. Changes in gene regulatory networks between the surface and cave morphotypes point to global changes in key metabolic pathways.

Effects of aging on gene expression in multiple tissues in surface and cave Astyanax mexicanus

Project description:Dysregulation of sleep has widespread health consequences and represents an enormous health burden. Short-sleeping individuals are predisposed to the effects of neurodegeneration, suggesting a critical role for sleep in the maintenance of neuronal health. While the effects of sleep on cellular function are not completely understood, growing evidence has identified an association between sleep loss and DNA damage, raising the possibility that sleep facilitates efficient DNA repair. The Mexican tetra fish, Astyanax mexicanus provides a model to investigate the evolutionary basis for changes in sleep and the consequences of sleep loss. Multiple cave-adapted populations of these fish have evolved to sleep for substantially less time compared to surface populations of the same species without identifiable impacts on healthspan or longevity. To investigate whether the evolved sleep loss is associated with DNA damage and aging, we compared the transcriptional response to aging between surface and cave morphs of A. mexicanus

Gene expression profiling of primary human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) cultured as 2D monolayers and 3D cellular aggregates (spheroids)

Project description:Human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are conventionally cultured as adherent monolayers on tissue culture plastic. MSCs can also be cultured as 3D cell aggregates (spheroids). Optimised 3D conditions (60,000 MSCs cultured as a spheroid for 5 days) inhibited MSC proliferation and induced cell shrinkage in the absence of cell death. Primary human MSCs isolated from 2 donors were cultured under both monolayer (2D MSCs) and optimised 3D (3D MSCs) conditions. High quality RNA was isolated from all samples, and global gene expression analysis was performed in duplicate (using Agilent SurePrint G3 Human Gene Expression 8x60K v2 Microarrays) to identify gene expression changes in 3D compared to 2D MSC cultures.

Liver-derived cell lines from cavefish Astyanax mexicanus as an in vitro model for studying metabolic adaptation

Project description:Cell lines have become an integral resource and tool for conducting biological experiments ever since the Hela cell line was first developed (1). They not only allow detailed investigation of molecular pathways but are faster and more cost-effective than most in vivo approaches. The last decade saw many emerging model systems strengthening basic science research. However, lack of genetic and molecular tools in these newer systems pose many obstacles. Astyanax mexicanus is proving to be an interesting new model system for understanding metabolic adaptation. To further enhance the utility of this system, we developed liver-derived cell lines from both surface-dwelling and cave-dwelling morphotypes. In this study, we provide detailed methodology of the derivation process along with a comprehensive biochemical and molecular characterization of the cell lines, which reflects key metabolic traits of cavefish adaptation. We anticipate these cell lines to become a useful resource for the Astyanax community as well as researchers investigating fish biology, comparative physiology, and metabolism.

Proteomic Analysis Reveals Cadherin, Actin, and Focal Adhesion Molecule-Mediated Formation of Cervical Cancer Spheroid

Project description:Cancer spheroids are spherical, three-dimensional (3D), in vitro assemblies of cancer cells, which are gaining importance as a useful model in cancer behavior studies. Designed to simulate key features of the in vivo tumor microenvironment, spheroids offer reliable insights for drug screening and testing applications. We observed contrasting phenotypes in 3D cervical cancer (CC) cultures. Thus, in this study, we compared the proteomes of 3D and traditional two-dimensional (2D) cultures of CC cell lines, HeLa, SiHa, and C33A. When cultured in in-house poly-(2-hydroxy-ethyl methacrylate)-coated plates under conditions suitable for 3D spheroid formation, these CC cell lines yielded spheroids exhibiting different features. Proteomic analysis of cells cultured in 2D and 3D cultures revealed similar protein profiles but remarkable differences in the expression levels of some proteins. In SiHa and C33A cells, the upregulation of key proteins required for spheroid formation was insufficient for the formation of compact spheroids. In contrast, HeLa cells could form compact spheroids because they upregulated the proteins, including cadherin-binding, cytoskeleton, and adhesion proteins, necessary for spheroid formation during the remodeling process. Overall, this study unravels the mechanisms underlying the formation of spheroids in the commonly used CC cell lines
