Project description:Murine Runx3 is expressed in developing bone osteoblasts (OBLs) and its deletion in these cells culminates in severe congenital osteopenia. We demonstrate that Runx3 is non-redundantly involved in the proliferation of early pre-committed OBL progenitor cells, a critical step in the generation of adequate numbers of bone-forming OBLs. Thus, in the absence of Runx3 in cells of this lineage, the number of mature/active OBLs is significantly diminished, providing a mechanistic explanation to the observed osteopenia. This experiment was aimed at identifying genes that are likely regulated by Runx3 along osteoblastogenesis. To elucidate the Runx3-mediated transcriptional program along OBL differentiation, we compared gene expression profile in WT and Runx3f/f/Col1a1-cre calvarial OBLs. Progenitor cells were purified and RNA extracted, reverse-transcribed, fragmented, labeled and hybridized to GeneChip® Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array.

Project description:Ewing sarcoma is an aggressive pediatric small round cell tumor that predominantly occurs in bone. Approximately 85% of Ewing sarcomas harbor the EWS/FLI fusion protein, which arises from a chromosomal translocation, t(11:22)(q24:q12). EWS/FLI interacts with numerous lineage-essential transcription factors to maintain mesenchymal progenitors in an undifferentiated state. We previously showed that EWS/FLI binds the osteogenic transcription factor RUNX2 and prevents osteoblast differentiation. In this study, we investigated the role of another Runt-domain protein, RUNX3, in Ewing sarcoma. RUNX3 participates in mesenchymal-derived bone formation and is a context dependent tumor suppressor and oncogene. RUNX3 was detected in all Ewing sarcoma cells examined, whereas RUNX2 was detected in only 73% of specimens. Like RUNX2, RUNX3 binds to EWS/FLI via its Runt domain. EWS/FLI prevented RUNX3 from activating the transcription of a RUNX-responsive reporter, p6OSE2. Stable suppression of RUNX3 expression in the Ewing sarcoma cell line A673 delayed colony growth in anchorage independent soft agar assays and reversed expression of EWS/FLI-responsive genes. These results demonstrate an important role for RUNX3 in Ewing sarcoma. RNA-seq to compare transcriptiome of control A673 ewing sarcoma cells stably expression a non-target or RUNX3 shRNA

Project description:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a multifactorial autoimmune disease characterized by the destruction of pancreatic beta (β) cells and resultant hyperglycaemia. Broad knowledge about the genetics, epidemiology, and clinical management of T1D has been achieved, but the cell varieties in the bone marrow during T1D remain poorly understood. Here, we performed a single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of whole bone marrow cells from healthy (group C) and STZ-induced T1D (group D) mice for the first time, presenting a profile of the bone marrow cells and revealing the changes in immune cells in bone marrow. The bone marrow cells in both groups C and D were divided into 12 clusters, and there were 249 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Compared with group C, the proportion of CD45+ immune cells in group D was not changed much. However, the diversity of CD45+ immune cells between groups C and D were greatly affected. There was a large increase in the proportion of bone marrow neutrophils (BM-neutrophils) and a large decrease in the proportion of B lymphocytes in group D. Furthermore, it was confirmed by X-ray and micro-CT analyses that osteopenia occurred in group D mice. Finally, we investigated the correlation between immune cells and osteopenia. The results of single-cell flow cytometry and correlation analysis showed that the ratio of BM-neutrophils/B lymphocytes was negatively correlated with osteopenia in T1D mice. Thus, precise regulation of the immune cells in the bone marrow may contribute to a better understanding of the treatment of T1D and the prevention of T1D-induced osteopenia.

Project description:Objectives: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) play an important role in osteogenesis. However, the role of BMSC in osteopenia in spinal tuberculosis (STB) patients is unclear. Methods: Bone mineral density (BMD) of 53 STB patients and 55 controls was measured. The migration and osteogenesis of BMSC were assessed by wound healing assays and alizarin red staining, and osteoclast marker expression was measured. RNA-seq was performed on BMSC and the enriched signaling pathways were verified. Results:BMD of STB patients was significantly decreased and BMSC migration and osteogenesis were significantly reduced. After verification, we found that the B-cell receptor signaling pathway, tuberculosis, osteoclast differentiation, Th17-cell differentiation, Ras signaling pathway and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway were affected.And of these pathways, the B-cell receptor signaling, Th17-cell differentiation, Ras signaling pathway and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway were not previously known to be involved in osteopenia. The MAPK signaling pathway and ECM-receptor interactions were correlated with STB prognosis. Conclusion: STB infection can significantly reduce BMSC migration and osteogenesis, decreasing BMD. This process is regulated by multiple pathways and is associated with STB prognosis. Our study suggests that reduced BMSC migration and osteogenesis play important roles in osteopenia in STB patients, and BMSC may be a therapeutic target.

Project description:Cellular binary fate decisions require the progeny to silence genes associated with the alternative fate. The major subsets of alpha:beta T cells have been extensively studied as a model system for fate decisions. While the transcription factor RUNX3 is required for the initiation of Cd4 silencing in CD8 T cell progenitors, it is not required to maintain the silencing of Cd4 and other helper T lineage genes. The other runt domain containing protein, RUNX1, silences Cd4 in an earlier T cell progenitor, but this silencing is reversed whereas the gene silencing after RUNX3 expression is not reverse. Therefore, we hypothesized that RUNX3 and not RUNX1 recruits other factors that maintains the silencing of helper T lineage genes in CD8 T cells. To this end, we performed a proteomics screen of RUNX1 and RUNX3 to determine candidate silencing factors.

Project description:The RUNX genes encode for transcription factors involved in development and human disease. RUNX1 and RUNX3 are frequently associated with leukemias, yet the basis for their involvement in leukemogenesis is not fully understood. Here we show that Runx1;Runx3 double knockout (DKO) mice exhibited lethal phenotypes due to bone marrow failure and myeloproliferative disorder. These contradictory clinical manifestations are reminiscent of human inherited bone marrow failure syndromes like Fanconi anemia (FA), caused by defective DNA repair. Indeed, Runx1;Runx3 DKO cells showed mitomycin C hypersensitivity, due to impairment of monoubiquitinated-FANCD2 recruitment to DNA damage foci, although FANCD2 monoubiquitination in the FA pathway was unaffected. RUNX1 and RUNX3 interact with FANCD2 independent of CBFM-NM-2, suggesting non-transcriptional role for RUNX in DNA repair. These findings suggest that RUNX dysfunction causes DNA repair defect, besides transcriptional misregulation, and promotes development of leukemias and other cancers. 6 mice were analyzed in this study. 3 Runx1;Runx3 double knockout cKit+Sca1+Lin- hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells were compared with their wild type littermate controls. RNA was isolated from 3 independent Runx1;Runx3 WT KSL samples, each pooled from 3 Runx1;Runx3 WT mice, and 3 independent Runx1;Runx3 DKO KSL samples, using the RNeasy Micro Kit (QIAgen). RNA integrity and quantity was assessed using the Agilent 2000 Bioanalyzer system. 3 M-NM-<g to 5 M-NM-<g RNA was processed using WT-Ovation Pico RNA Amplification System (NuGEN) paired with the WT-Ovation Exon Module and FL-Ovation cDNA Biotin Module (NuGEN). A detailed protocol in the userM-bM-^@M-^Ys guide kit was used without modification. cDNA were prepared for hybridization on GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays (Affymetrix) according to the instructions in GeneChip Hybridization Wash and Stain Kit for ST arrays (Affymetrix). Microarray hybridization, scanning and preliminary MAS 5.0 normalizations were completed at the A*STAR Biopolis Shared Facilities (BSF).

Project description:NK cells are innate immune cells that recognize and kill foreign, virally-infected and tumor cells without the need for prior immunization. NK expansion following viral infection is IL-2 or IL-15-dependent. To identify Runx3 responsive genes, NK cells were isolated from spleen of WT and Runx3-/- mice . Six samples (3 WT and 3 Runx3-/-) of freshly isolated NK cells (resting) were separately obtained from individual mice.
