Project description:We used RNAseq to quantify trascript expression from three populations of Conyza sumatrensis before and 5 hours after treatment with 2,4-D. This study investigates different responses between a 2,4-D resistant biotype compared to a 2,4-D sensitive biotype.

Project description:Resistance to the phenoxy synthetic auxin herbicide 2,4-D is conferred by a deletion mutation in the degron tail of IAA2. An RNA-Seq experiment was used to assemble a reference transcriptome for the weed species Sisymbrium orientale, to quantify gene expression, and to identify sequence variants in the alignments. A 27 bp deletion was identified in the IAA2 gene. Forward genetics supported the role of this deletion mutation in resistance. The IAA2 deletion allele was transformed into Arabidopsis thaliana to confirm that it conferred 2,4-D resistance.
Project description:To identify intrinsic mechanismis that mediating Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) resistance , gene expression analysis was performed on MDA-MB-231 cell lines exposed to TRAIL, in parental (Sensitive) or treat to resistance (TTR) conditions.
Project description:The regulation of necrotic death and its relevance in anti-cancer therapy are largely unknown. Here we have investigated the pro-apoptotic and pro-necrotic activities of two ubiquitin-proteasome system inhibitors (UPSIs): bortezomib and G5. The present study points out that the glioblastoma cell lines U87MG and T98G are useful models to study the susceptibility to apoptosis and necrosis in response to UPSIs. U87MG cells are resistant to apoptosis induced by bortezomib and G5 but susceptible to necrosis induced by G5. On the opposite T98G cells are susceptible to apoptosis induced by both inhibitors but show some resistance to G5-induced necrosis. By comparing the transcriptional profiles of the two cell lines, we have found that the resistance to G5-induced necrosis could arise from differences in glutathione synthesis/utilization and in the microenvironment. In particular collagen IV, which is highly expressed in T98G cells, and fibronectin, whose adhesive function is counteracted by tenascin-C in U87MG cells, can restrain the necrotic response to G5. Collectively, our results provide an initial characterization of the molecular signals governing cell death by necrosis in glioblastoma cell lines. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression profiling was evaluated from 3 replicates each of T98G and U87MG cells.
Project description:The synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) functions as an agronomic weed control herbicide. High concentrations of 2,4-D induce plant growth defects, particularly leaf epinasty and stem curvature. Although the 2,4-D phenotype is associated with ROS production, little is known about ROS-dependent signalling. In this study, by using T-DNA Arabidopsis mutants to silence peroxisomal acyl CoA oxidase 1 (acx1-2), we identified ACX1 as one of the main sources of ROS production and as partly the cause of the epinasty phenotype following the application of 2,4-D. Transcriptomic analyses of WT plants after treatment with 2,4-D revealed a ROS-related peroxisomal footprint in early plant responses, while other organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, are involved in later responses. Interestingly, a group of ACX1-dependent transcripts in plant responses to 2,4-D, previously associated with epinasty, is related to auxin biosynthesis, metabolism and signalling. We found that protein AUXIN SIGNALING F-BOX 3 (AFB3), a component of SCF (ASK-cullin-F-box) E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, which functions as an auxin receptor and mediates Aux/IAA proteasomal degradation, acts downstream of ACX1 and is involved in the epinasty phenotype induced by 2,4-D. We also found that protein degradation associated with ubiquitin E3-RING and E3-SCF-FBOX in ACX1-dependent signalling in plant responses to 2,4-D is significantly regulated over longer treatment periods.
