Project description:We performed RNA sequencing analyses of adult mouse bone marrow lineage-negative, Sca-1-positive, and c-kit-positive (LSK) hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell population. Especially, we investigated gene expression profiling of LSK cells before and after haloperidol treatment.
Project description:We performed RNA sequencing analyses of adult mouse bone marrow lineage-negative, Sca-1-positive, and c-kit-positive (LSK) multipotent progenitor cells in wildtype and Drd2 Drd3 double knockout mice
Project description:Recent studies have shown that multiple components of the mRNA splicing machinery are mutated in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients. SF3B1 is frequently mutated in refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts (RARS)-MDS patients, however, the pathophysiological role of SF3B1 mutations has not been elucidated yet. In this study, we examined the function of Sf3b1 in murine hematopoiesis. Since Sf3b1 null homozygotes died during preimplantation development, in this study, we utilized Sf3b1 heterozygous mice showing grossly normal growth. We harvested bone marrow stem/progenitor (LSK) cells from wild type (WT) and Sf3b1+/- mice (n=4) at 20 weeks old. In addition, to exclude the possibility of indirect effect from bone marrow environment, we transplanted total bone marrow cells from WT or Sf3b1+/- (CD45.2+) mice into lethally irradiated CD45.1+ recipient mice, and then harvested (CD45.2+) LSK cells from the recipients (n=5) at 9 months-post transplantation.
Project description:We found PAD4, which is one of the transcriptional co-regulator by histone modification, was highly expressed in lineage-, Sca-1+, c-kit+ (termed as LSK) cells of mouse bone marrow. To find the target genes which are regulated by PAD4 in LSK cells, we analyzed gene expression in PAD4-deficient mouse as compared with wild-type mouse.
Project description:The study was a comparison of gene expression using RNA-seq. We analyzed the stem and progenitor cells from WT and Vav-cre+ Tet2fl/fl Flt3-ITD (T2F3) mice. We isolated stem cells LSK (lin- sca+ kit+) and granulocyte-macrophage progenitors GMP (lin- sca- kit+ fcgr+ cd34+) cells from bone marrow. Comparisons were made across genotypes WT vs. T2F3 and cell types LSK vs. GMP.
Project description:By tracing the VE-cadherin expression in the newborn bone marrow hematopoietic LSK (lineage minus/Sca-positive/Kit-positive) cells, we demonstrated that the late foetal/newborn BM hemogenic endothelial cells produce a small cohort of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) capable of circulating and colonizing the secondary haematopoietic organs. Phenotypic and functional analyses disclosed that BM endothelium-derived HSPCs are mainly Multipotent Progenitors (MPPs) and a few Hematopoietic Stem Cells. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying the endothelial origin of LSK cells in the newborn bone marrow.
Project description:compare the gene expression profile between irradiated Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+ (LSK) cells from mouse bone marrow reconstituted with wild type and necdin null fetal liver cells The Affymetrix oligonucleotide array was used for this analysis compare the gene expression profile betweenirradiated Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+ (LSK) cells from mouse bone marrow reconstituted with wild type and necdin null fetal liver cells
