Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE30917: Collection of mouse ES cell lines engineered for the forced induction of transcription factors (part A) GSE31374: Collection of mouse ES cell lines engineered for the forced induction of transcription factors (part B) Refer to individual Series
Project description:Here we report the generation of 84 mouse ES cell lines with doxycycline-controllable transcription factors (TFs) which, together with the previous 53 lines, cover 7 - 10% of all TFs encoded in the mouse genome. Global gene expression profiles of all 137 lines after the induction of TFs for 48 hrs can associate each TF with the direction of ES cell differentiation, regulatory pathways, and mouse phonotypes. These cell lines and microarray data provide the building blocks for a variety of future biomedical research applications as a community resource.

Project description:In order to identify the effects of the induction of the gene of interest on the mouse ES transcriptome, we performed Affymetrix Gene-Chip hybridization experiments for the different inducible cell lines Transcriptome analysis of the inducible transgenic mouse ES cell lines
Project description:Differentiated somatic cells can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by forced expression of four transcription factorsâOct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc. However, it remains undetermined whether the reprogrammed iPS cells are fully pluripotent, resembling normal embryonic stem (ES) cells, given that no iPS cell lines have been shown to possess the capability to autonomously generate full-term mice after injection into tetraploid blastocysts. Here, we provide evidence demonstrating that iPS cells induced by the four transcription factors can be fully pluripotent and that full-term mice can be produced from complemented tetraploid blastocysts. This work serves as a proof of principle that iPS cells can generate full term embryos by tetraploid complementation. We compared the gene expression profile of iPS cell, ES cell and MEF. ES cell and MEF served as control for iPS cell. Three biological repeats were included for each line.
Project description:Gene expression profiles of ZHBTc4 ES cells expressing EGFP, Oct4-EGFP, Nr5a2-EGFP under CAG promoter. Monoclonal cell lines selected by Puromycin were used for analysis. Each of the cell lines was cultured in doxycycline containing media for endogenous Oct4 knock-down. Pupose of this experiment is to investigate the possibility that forced expression of Nr5a2 can replace Oct4 function in the self-renewal of ES cells.
