ABSTRACT: To understand the invasive microenvironment of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) at a single-cell resolution, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) using cells derived from calvaria of tumor-free control mice and tumor-excised calvarial tissues from pre-invasive stage(scratch-negative)and invasive stage(scratch-positive)groups 1 week after the implantation of C57BL/6-derived HNSCC cell line HNM007 cells.
Project description:The objectives of this investigation were to examine changes in the host transcriptional profiles during a Porphyromonas gingivalis infection using a murine calvarial model of inflammation and bone resorption. P. gingivalis strain 381 was injected into the subcutaneous soft tissue over the calvaria of BALB/c mice for 3 days, after which the soft tissues and calvarial bones were excised. RNA was isolated from infected soft tissues and calvarial bones and analyzed for transcript profiles using Murine GeneChip® MG-MOE430A Affymetrix arrays to provide a molecular profile of the events that occur following infection of these tissues. We used mouse microarrays to detail the molecular profile of the events that occur following infection of calvarial and bone tissues and identified distinct classes of up- and down-regulated genes during this process. P. gingivalis was injected at 1.5 x 10E9 (N = 10) into the soft tissues overlying the calvaria of the mice for 3 days. A control group (N = 9) was injected with vehicle once daily for 3 days. Mice were euthanized 8 h after the last injection. The calvarial bones and overlying soft tissues from 5 mice in each group were excised, snap frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at –80°C until RNA isolation. Total RNA was isolated from the frozen calvarial tissue and calvarial bone from each mouse (P. gingivalis infected and control animals) with Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, CA). Equal amounts of RNA from samples were labeled and hybridized on a mouse GeneChip following the protocol described in the GeneChip Expression Analysis Technical manual (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). After hybridization, the GeneChip arrays were stained and scanned in an Affymetrix GCS 3000 7G Scanner.

Project description:Background: It has widely been observed that young children are capable of reossifying large calvarial defects, while adults lack this endogenous tissue-engineering capacity. The ability of juvenile animals to regenerate calvarial defects has been investigated in multiple animal models, including mice. In this study, the authors used cDNA microarrays to investigate the expression of osteogenesis-associated genes upstream and downstream of Runx2 in juvenile and adult mouse calvaria. Methods: Nonsuture-associated parietal bone discs were harvested from 6-day-old (n = 50) and 60-day-old (n = 35) male CD-1 mice. After separation of the underlying dura mater and overlying pericranium, the calvarial discs were snap-frozen and RNA was extracted from pooled samples of calvaria for microarray analysis. Genes analyzed included cytokines, receptors, and cell-surface and matrix proteins both upstream and downstream of Runx2. Results: Genes associated with the Runx2 pathway had notably higher levels in the juvenile versus adult calvaria. All genes except for osteocalcin were expressed at least twofold higher in the juvenile calvaria. This pattern was validated with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. In addition, mRNA for potent osteoinductive growth factors was present at higher levels in the juvenile compared with the adult calvaria. Conclusions: These findings reflect a genomic environment of active osteoblast differentia-tion and ossification in the juvenile calvaria compared with the adult aquiescent calvarial tissue. These data suggest that a decreased osteogenic potential of adult calvarial osteoblasts may, in part, explain the inability of adult animals to heal calvarial defects.
