Project description:We isolated and selected intestinal adenoma organoids from villin-CreER; Apcflox/flox and villin-CreER; Apcflox/flox; Prox1flox/flox mice and added tamoxifen to induce the deletion of the Apc and Prox1 genes in the intestinal epitheliul ex vivo. Microarray experiments were carried out 7 days after the addition of tamoxifen. Total RNA obtained from villin-CreER; Apcflox/flox and villin-CreER; Apcflox/flox; Prox1flox/flox organoids were compared 7 days after the addition of tamoxifen and 5 days after the selection for Apc-mutant organoids in the absence of the Wnt-agonist R-Spondin1.
Project description:We isolated and selected intestinal adenoma organoids from Lgr5-EGFP-IRES-CreER; Apcflox/flox mice and added tamoxifen to induce the deletion of the Apc gene in the intestinal stem cells. Gene expressions on day7 and day20 after the addition of tamoxifen were compared, representing two stages with different colorectal cancer stem cell content. Total RNA obtained from Lgr5-EGFP-IRES-CreER; Apcflox/flox organoids were compared 7 days and 20 days after the addition of tamoxifen, cultured without the Wnt-agonist R-Spondin1.
Project description:Intestinal crypts isolated from Apcflox/flox; villin-CreERT mice were treated with Tamoxifen to induce the deletion of Apc. Tamoxifen-treated organoids were selected in the absence of Wnt agonists and then treated with TGF-beta. Total RNA obtained from Tamoxifen-treated, Apc-deleted intestinal organoids in the absence or presence of 3 ng/ml TGF-beta (18h).
Project description:Here we investigate the transcription changes in the murine intestine 4 days following loss of APC under the control of Vil-CreErT2 driver. We compare the RNAseq data from epithelial organoids generated from control (APC loss) intestines to organoids generated from lacking VAV2, VAV3 and TIAM1. We show that loss of these GEFs supress the APC WNT driven intestinal phenotype in a RAC-dependent manner.

Project description:We performed CRISPR screens on both a sub-library and a genome-wide scale in human intestinal organoids to discover cancer driver genes. We investigated the Wnt and the TGFB pathway and used both WT, APC-mutant and APC-TP53-mutant organoids.
