Project description:Recent studies have demonstrated that hepatocytes can be reprogrammed into biliary epithelial cell-like cells. An earlier work in our laboratory nominated Sox4 as an initiation factor of this reprogramming event To investigate the effect of Sox4 on the change of chromatin landscape of hepatocytes, we performed ATAC-seq of exogenously Sox4-expressed hepatocytes.

An earlier work in our laboratory nominated Sox4 as an initiation factor of this reprogramming event To investigate the effect of Sox4 on the change of chromatin landscape of hepatocytes, we performed ATAC-seq of Sox4-overexpressed (OE) hepatocytes.

An earlier work in our laboratory nominated Sox4 as an initiation factor of this reprogramming event. To investigate the effect of Sox4 on the change of chromatin landscape of hepatocytes, we exogenosly expressed Sox4 in adult hepatocytes, and profiled its binding sites in a genome wide manner by CUT&RUN-seq. We also profiled histone post-translational modifications of H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac and H3K27me3 to explore the influence of Sox4 on the epigenetic landscape of hepatocytes.

An earlier work in our laboratory nominated Sox4 as an initiation factor of this reprogramming event. To investigate the effect of Sox4 on the transcriptomic changes in hepatocytes, we performed RNA-seq of Sox4-overexpressed (OE) hepatocytes.
