ACGH analysis of familial Alzheimer’s disease with presenilin 2 mutation patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: We established two clones of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) with the presenilin 2 mutation, N141 (PS2-1 iPSC and PS2-2 iPSC) by retroviral transduction of primary human fibroblasts. To detect the copy number dependent gene expression profiles in primary fibroblast carrying the presenilin 2 mutation N141(before reprogramming) and PS2-1 iPSC and PS2-2 iPSC(after reprogramming), this experiment was designed. Genomic DNA of primary fibroblasts carrying the presenilin 2 mutation N141 and undifferentiated PS2-1 iPSC and PS2-2 iPSC were collected. Then, they were applied in this experiment.

Project description:Notch1 signaling is an important regulator of cell fate in early stages of T cell development. Because Notch receptors can function redundantly, we sought an approach for inhibiting all endogenous Notch signaling in thymocytes. Upon ligand engagement, Notch receptors undergo two successive proteolytic cleavages, the second involving a Presenilin (PS) containing complex with -secretase activity that releases a small intracellular fragment of Notch. This activated form of Notch (NotchIC) translocates from the membrane to the nucleus, where it acts as a transcription factor, inducing the expression of multiple target genes . Since Presenilins are required for the activation of all four mammalian forms of Notch, we generated mice with deletions of both Presenilin1 and Presenilin2 genes, the only genes encoding Presenilin in the mouse genome. To target Notch inactivation specifically to developing T cells, we introduced Cd4-Cre to mediate Presenilin gene deletion in a tissue- and stage-specific manner. Direct target genes of Notch signaling are largely unknown, and are likely to be cell lineage and stage specific. Therefore in order to identify potential Notch target genes , we compared RNA of thymocytes at the CD4+CD8+ stage of development from H-2b transgenic 5CC7 TCR/ RAG2-deficient / Presenilin1flox/flox /PS2-/- mice, with and without Cd4-Cre. Thymocyte single cell suspensions were generated using 100 µm nylon mesh (PGC Scientifics). DP thymocytes were isolated from RAG2° control or PS1/2° 5CC7 TCR H2bb mice by magnetic bead separation on anti-CD4 coated microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec.). Total RNA was isolated using TRIzol according to manufacturer's instructions (Invitrogen). After quantification and checking for integrity, 1 µg of RNA was subjected to linear amplification. The resulting aRNA was labeled by reverse transcription via Cy5-dCTP incorporation and Cy3-dCTP incorporation. The fluorescent labeled probes were subsequently combined and hybridized on topic-defined PIQORTM Immunology Microarrays Mouse Antisense.
