Project description:The developmental transcription factor SOX6 was found to regulate serum, as well as liver triglycerides in BL6 mice treated with SOX6 antisense gapmers compared to control gapmers. SOX6 was initially discovered as a gene over-expressed in mesenchymal stem cells derived from small for gestational age newborns. We characterized its metabolic function in BL6 mice using the above antisense knockdown approach. BL6 mice were treated with either SOX6 specific or control gapmer oligonucleotides for 48h. Knockdown efficiency was measured in liver and epididymal white adipose tissues and serum levels of triglycerides and cholesterol quantified.

Project description:Cellular maturation is an adaptive process essential for tissue formation and function, yet distinct from the initial steps of differentiation and cell fate specification. Understanding the regulation of cell maturation may inform underlying mechanisms of disease or new approaches to regenerative medicine. In the central nervous system, failed generation of mature oligodendrocytes contributes to numerous diseases including multiple sclerosis. Here, we report a transcriptional mechanism that governs the timing of oligodendrocyte maturation. After differentiation, the transcription factor SOX6 redistributes from super enhancers in proliferating oligodendrocyte progenitor cells to cluster across specific gene bodies in immature oligodendrocytes. These sites exhibit extensive chromatin decondensation and transcription, which abruptly turns off upon maturation. Suppression of SOX6 deactivates these immaturity loci, resulting in rapid transition to mature myelinating oligodendrocytes. Cells harboring this immature oligodendrocyte SOX6 gene signature are specifically enriched in multiple sclerosis patient brains, suggesting that failed maturation contributes to disease pathology. Administration of a Sox6-targeting antisense oligonucleotide in postnatal mice drove precocious oligodendrocyte maturation. Our findings reveal that SOX6 governs oligodendrocyte maturation and that its targeting could inform therapeutic strategies for enhancing myelin regeneration in neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases.

Project description:To determine the molecular differences between ventral Sox6+ and dorsal Sox6- DA neurons, we performed bulk RNA-sequencing in sorted mCherry+ and GFP+ cells from the SNc of adult Sox6-FSF-Cre, Th-2A-Flpo, RC-Frepe mice. Our analysis revealed large and significant differential gene expression between these two populations.
