Project description:We have compared the gene expression profile of rat Achilles tendon-derived stem cells in post-natal tendon development. Rat tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) were isolated at different stages of post-natal development: TSPCs-1d, TSPCs-7d and TSPCs-56d.

Rat tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) were isolated at different stages of post-natal development: TSPCs-1d, TSPCs-7d and TSPCs-56d. TSPCs at different post-natal development stages (1d, 7d and 56d) were isolated, cultured and used for microarray analyses at passage 2. All TSPCs in this study were of isolated from more than one individual. Total RNA was extracted and fragmented biotin-tagged cRNA was hybridized to Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array.

Project description:Tendon tissue growth is promoted by mechanical stimulation, but the mechanism is not well understood. Piezo1, a mechanical stress-responsive channel receptor, is expressed in tendon cells, and the fact that tendon tissue growth was accelerated in Piezo1 gain of function mice suggests that Piezo1 plays an important role in tendon tissue growth. RNA-seq of tendon tissues from these mice showed increased expression of tendon-related genes and decreased expression of muscle-related genes, suggesting that Piezo1 may play a role in maintaining and enhancing the properties of tendon cells.

Project description:The intermediate filament protein Nestin serves as a biomarker for stem cells and has been used to identify subsets of cancer stem-like cells. However, the mechanistic contributions of Nestin to cancer pathogenesis are not understood. Here we report that Nestin binds the hedgehog pathway transcription factor Gli3 to mediate the development of medulloblastomas of the hedgehog subtype. In a mouse model system, Nestin levels increased progressively during medulloblastoma formation resulting in enhanced tumor growth. Conversely, loss of Nestin dramatically inhibited proliferation and promoted differentiation. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the tumor-promoting effects of Nestin were mediated by binding to Gli3, a zinc finger transcription factor that negatively regulates hedgehog signaling. Nestin binding to Gli3 blocked Gli3 phosphorylation and its subsequent proteolytic processing, thereby abrogating its ability to negatively regulate the hedgehog pathway. Our findings show how Nestin drives hedgehog pathway-driven cancers and uncover in Gli3 a therapeutic target to treat these malignancies.

Nestin+ and Nestin- GNPs (granule neuron precursors) were purified from Nestin-CFP/Math1-Cre/Ptch1-loxp cerebella at postnatal day 4 by FACs, and total RNA from these two cell populations were extracted, and then labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays.

Project description:We have undertaken a screen of mouse limb tendon cells in order to identify molecular pathways involved in tendon development. Mouse limb tendon cells were isolated based on Scleraxis (Scx) expression at different stages of development: E11.5, E12.5 and E14.5 Microarray comparisons were carried out between tendon progenitor and differentiated stages. Forelimbs from E11.5, E12.5 and E14.5 Scx-GFP embryos were collected and dissociated with trypsin to obtain cell suspensions. Scx-positive tendon cells were isolated by FACS. RNA was extracted and Fragmented biotin-labelled cRNA samples were hybridized on Affymetrix Gene Chip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays.

Project description:Partial tendon-to-bone interface (TBI) injuries heal in a mechanically inferior manner and redevelop healthy uninjured tissue morphology. The origin of the cells involved in tendon-to-bone healing remains unknown. We employed a rigorous approach to evaluate if mouse skeletal stem cells (mSSC) play a role in tendon-to-bone healing after partial-injury. Using fluorescence-activated cell sorting we identified that found that they are present within the TBI. Using a TBI-injury rainbow lineage tracing mouse model, we demonstrated that injury-responsive cells within the TBI and calcaneus proliferate polyclonally following partial-tendon injury at the TBI. These injury-responsive clonal cells express skeletal marker SP7. We quantified the differences in mSCC frequency after TBI-injury and found that mSSC respond to injury with a higher frequency and have associated changes in gene expression, with the specific down-regulation of the TGFβ signaling pathway. Exogenous delivery of TGFβ after injury was found to reduce the mSSC response after injury. These findings suggest that mSSC may facilitate tendon-to-bone healing by downregulating TGFβ signaling within the mSSC niche.

Project description:The hamstring tendon is used as autograft in surgical reconstruction of tears of the anterior cruciate ligament. The rate of re-rupture after surgery is higher in younger patients. The aim of the study was to identify molecular mechanisms that underlie the greater susceptibility of tendon from younger people to tear.
