Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse aortas comparing control wild-type animals with aortas from three different Plk1(+/-) mice. Goal was to determine the effects of Plk1 haploinsufficiency in aorta expression profiles.

Transcriptome analaysis of Bcl11b-deficient aortas

Project description:B-cell leukemia 11b (BCL11B) is a transcription factor known as an essential regulator of T lymphocytes and neuronal development during embryogenesis. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) showed that a gene desert region downstream of BCL11B, known to function as a BCL11B enhancer, harbors single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with increased arterial stiffness. However, a role for BCL11B in the adult cardiovascular system is unknown. Based on these human findings, we sought to examine the relation between BCL11B and arterial function. Here we report that BCL11B is expressed in the vascular smooth muscle (VSM) where it regulates vascular stiffness. RNA sequencing of aortas from WT and Bcl11b null mice (BSMKO) identified the cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-protein kinase G (PKG) as the most significant differentially regulated signaling pathway in BSMKO compared to WT mice. BSMKO aortas showed decreased levels of PKG1, increased levels of Ca++-calmodulin-dependent serine/threonine phosphatase calcineurin (PP2B) and their common phosphorylation target, vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (pVASPS239), a regulator of cytoskeletal actin rearrangements. Decreased pVASPS239 in BSMKO aortas was associated with increased actin polymerization (F/G actin ratio). Functionally, aortic force, stress, wall tension and stiffness, measured ex vivo in organ baths, were increased in BSMKO aortas, and BSMKO mice had increased pulse wave velocity, the in vivo index of arterial stiffness. Despite having no effect on blood pressure or microalbuminuria, increased arterial stiffness in BSMKO mice was associated with increased incidence of cerebral microbleeds compared to age-matched WT littermates. In conclusion, we have identified VSM BCL11B as a crucial regulator of aortic smooth muscle function and a potential therapeutic target for vascular stiffness.

Gene Array Data from p0 Mouse pup; ascending and descending aortas; fibulin-4 knockout and control

Project description:Fibulin-4 plays an essential role in elastic fiber formation, though it's exact function is unclear. Mice lacking the fibulin-4 gene develop cutis laxa with thoracic aortic aneurysms and have narrowed descending aortic diamaters, dying shortly after birth. Another model that disrupt elastic fiber formation, elastin gene knockeds, are also perinatally lethal and have narrowed descending aortas but do not develop thoracic aneurysms. We hypothesized that there may be altered gene expression to explain the altered anatomy based on aortic tissue location we observed, which may provide therapeutic target(s) Ascending and descending aortas of p0 mouse pups were dissected, pooled in groups of eight, and homogenized to isolate RNA and we used microarrays on the pooled samples to identify genes that had expression significantly changed.

Single guide RNA CRISPR /Cas(sg) editing 3 nucleotides and prime editing (pe) single nucleotide of CArG element in Tspan2 promoter effect on transcriptome in aortas

Project description:Aortas from sgCArG WT versus sg CArG homozygous mice at 12 wks and peCArGWT and peCArG homozygenous mutant mice at 8 weeks were isolated for total RNA extraction. RNA samples were then subjected to deeping sequencing to profile gene expression in aortas.
