Project description:Specification of the mesodermal lineages requires a complex set of morphogenetic events orchestrated by interconnected signaling pathways and gene regulatory networks. The transcription factor Sox7 has critical functions in differentiation of multiple mesodermal lineages, including cardiac, endothelial, and hematopoietic. Using a doxycycline-inducible mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) line, we have previously shown that expression of Sox7 in cardiovascular progenitor cells promotes expansion of endothelial progenitor cells. Here, we show that the ability of Sox7 to promote endothelial cell fate occurs at the expense of the cardiac lineage. Using ChIP-Seq coupled with ATAC-Seq we identify downstream target genes of Sox7 in cardiovascular progenitor cells and, by integrating these data with transcriptomic analyses, we define Sox7-dependent gene programs specific to cardiac and endothelial progenitor cells. Further, we demonstrate a protein-protein interaction between SOX7 and GATA4 and provide evidence that Sox7 interferes with the transcriptional activity of Gata4 on cardiac genes. In addition, we show Sox7 modulates WNT and BMP signaling during cardiovascular differentiation. Our data represent the first genome-wide analysis of Sox7 function and reveal a critical role for Sox7 in regulating signaling pathways that affect cardiovascular progenitor cell differentiation.

The transcription factor Sox7 has critical functions in differentiation of multiple mesodermal lineages, including cardiac, endothelial, and hematopoietic.

Project description:Here we use a microarray approach to define at the molecular level the consequences of SOX7-mediated effect on B lymphopoiesis and progenitor proliferation. Transcriptome profiling analysis was performed on two subpopulations expressing low and high level of SOX7::GFP.

Project description:This study aimed to understand the transcriptional networks regulating endoderm specification from HESC and therefore explored the phenotype of CA1 and CA2 HESC constitutively over-expressing SOX7 or SOX17. Cell lines were created using an inducible construct whereby clonal populations containing transgene integration are selected by Neomycin resistance without expressing of the gene of interest (NoCre controls). Transgene expression is induced via Cre-mediated recombination and selected for puromycin resistance (SOX O/E). The phenotype of the resulting cells suggests that SOX7 expressing HESC represent stable extraembryonic endoderm progenitors, while SOX17 expressing HESC represent early definitive endoderm progenitors. Both in vitro and in vivo SOX7 expressing HESC are restricted to the extraembryonic endoderm lineage, while SOX17 expressing HESC demonstrate mesendodermal specificity. In vitro, SOX17 expressing HESC efficiently produce mature definitive endoderm derivatives. The molecular phenotype of the resulting SOX7 and SOX17 expressing HESC was characterized by microarray analysis Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was extracted from confluent monolayer cultures of SOX7 over-expressing HESC, SOX17 over-expressing HESC, and their respective control parental HESC lines (designated NoCre Sox7 and NoCre Sox17).

Project description:We investigated SOX7 binding events on the chromatin under basal conditions in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, upon overexpression of human SOX7-mCherry and immunoprecipitating mCherry. Cells overexpressing only the mCherry tag were used as negative control condition, and peaks called here were substracted from the SOX7-mCherry peaks.

Project description:To understand the role of Sox7 in primitive endoderm differentiation, we compare the gene expression pattern of Sox7 (+/-) and Sox7 (-/-) ES cells with or without dexamethasome (Dex) treatment. Because these ES cells harbour Gata6-GR transgene, Dex treatment forces ES cells differentate into XEN-like cells. As Sox7 (-/-) ES cells can differentiate into XEN-like cell by morphology, we assessed genome wide gene expression pattern.

Project description:As a transcription factor, SOX7 suppresses cancer development. However, only a few genes were demonstrated as SOX7-activated targets in cancer-irrelevant contexts. We used microarray chips to determine SOX7 target genes in breast cancer cells and discovered multiple signaling pathways altered by ectopic SOX7. We also investigated several genes for their roles in SOX7-mediated tumor suppression. Our study innovatively revealed SOX7 target gene profile in a cancer-relevant context and identified several SOX7-repressed target genes.

As Sox7 (-/-) ES cells can differentiate into XEN-like cell by morphology, we assessed genome wide gene expression pattern. Sox7 (+/-) ES cells and Sox7 (-/-) ES cells are forced to differentiate into XEN-like cells by Gata6-GR transgene. To compare the gene expression, we collected RNA samples at day4 with or without dexamethasone treatment from each genotype.
