Project description:We over-expressed an epigenetic regulator in a glioblastoma (GBM) primary culture from an adult patient. These GBM cells have cancer stem cell phenotypes, as they have self-renewal properties and tumor initiation potential when transplanted in immunocompromised mice. ATAC-seq was performed on cells over-expressing the epigenetic regulator and control cells expressing EGFP. ATAC-Seq on glioblastoma cells that over-express EGFP or an epigenetic regulator.
Project description:We performed ATAC-seq assay on nuclei isolated from control and UTXKO mouse brown fat to delineate the role of UTX in setting chromatin accessibility. We analyzed the effects of UTX deficiency on a set of brown fat specific genes and observed reduced accessibility at ATAC-seq peaks and mRNA expression for many of these genes, including PRDM16 and PGC1a.
Project description:Brown adipocytes (BAs) are a potential therapeutic cell source for the treatment of metabolic disease such as type 2 diabetes. In this report, human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are subject to directed differentiation to brown dipocytes through a paraxial mesoderm intermediate at high-efficiency. RNA-Seq and ATAC-seq was performed to characterized hPSCs derived paraxial mesoderm and brown adipocytes generated in this study.

Project description:ATAC-seq samples from 2 species and 2 cell types were generated to study cis-regulatory element evolution. Briefly, previously generated urinary stem cell derived iPS-cells (Homo sapiens) of 2 human individuals and fibroblast derived cynomolgus macaque iPSCs (Macaca fascicularis) of 2 individuals (Geuder et al. 2021) were differentiated to neural progenitor cells via dual-SMAD inhibition as three-dimensional aggregation culture (Chambers et al. 2009; Ohnuki et al. 2014). The NPC lines were cultured in NPC proliferation medium and passaged 2 - 4 times until they were dissociated and subjected to ATAC-seq together with the respective iPSC clones. ATAC-seq libraries were generated using the Omni-ATAC protocol (Corces et al. 2017) with minor modifications.
