Project description:The utility of human pluripotent stem cells as a tool for understanding disease and as a renewable source of cells for transplantation therapies is dependent on efficient differentiation protocols that convert these cells into relevant adult cell types. Here we report the robust and efficient differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into adipocytes. We found that inducible expression of PPARG2 in pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal progenitor cells programmed their development towards an adipocyte cell fate. Using this approach, multiple human pluripotent cell lines were differentiated into adipocytes with efficiencies of 85% to 90%. These pluripotent stem cell-derived adipocytes retained their identity independent of transgene expression, could be maintained in culture for several weeks, expressed mature markers, and exhibited mature functional properties such as lipid catabolism in response to a beta-adrenergic stimulus. Global transcriptional and lipid metabolomic analyses further confirmed the identity and maturity of these pluripotent stem cell-derived adipocytes. Mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) derived from human embryonic stem cells hESCs and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) along with adipose-derived stromal vascular cells (ADSVCs) were subjected to induction of PPAR2 and compared to primary fat samples. Overall 2 ADSVC (ADSVC 24 nd 49) lines, 1 hESC (HUES9) line and 1 iPSC (BJRiPS) line were differentiated into MPCs, PPAR2 programmed, and compared to untreated MPCs and primary fat samples from 2 individuals. Each condition is either represented in duplicate or triplicate on affymetrix HuGene-1_0-st arrays. MPCs derived from the hESC lines HUES2 and HUES8, ADSVCs, and BJRiPS were also run on a separate platform (HG-U133_Plus_2) with more GEO presence to facilitate analysis (34 samples, two platforms total).

Project description:We disprove that the impaired Myd88-dependent proinflammatory response of neonatal monocytes is a correlate for immaturity and confirm it as display of transient alarmin-mediated stress tolerization. We find a strong inducibility of TRIF-dependent genes in neonatal monocytes by LPS but a barely detectable expression at baseline. Isolated adult blood (AB) and cord blood (CB) monocytes were stimulated for 4h with lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Project description:Eptstein-Barr Virus, an oncogenic herpesvirus, infects and immortalizes human B cells in culture into indefinitely-prolerifating LCLs. We examined the gene expression of primary B cells during the process of infection and growth transformation at the exon level to analyze virus-induced changes in expression and exon usage. 4 samples each of total RNA were extracted from purified resting B Cells and monoclonal LCLs, for a total of 8. These samples were subjected to either Human Exon Array 1.0 or Affymetrix U133 2.0 plus. Data was then RMA normalized and analyzed using SplicerEx

Project description:ZFHX4 and CHD4 suppression independently shift tumor initiating cells out of a stem like state and toward a differentiated morphology. After gene suppression via transduction of a lentivirally mediated shRNA construct, RNA was extracted 3 and 5 days later and was hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. Total RNA was extracted 3 and 5 days after shRNA transduction of 0308 TICs, for 3 (for CHD4) or 5 (ZFHX4) independent experiments. Complementary RNA synthesis and hybridization/scanning of U133 plus 2.0 microarrays using GeneChip products (Affymetrix) was done as described in the GeneChip manual.

Project description:High-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) has enabled accurate gene discovery and expression estimation, but robust differential analysis of gene and transcript abundances has proven difficult. We present a new algorithm, implemented in the freely available tool Cuffdiff, which integrates transcript-level expression estimation with a method to control for variability across replicate samples. Cuffdiff robustly identifies differentially regulated isoforms and genes and reveals differential splicing or promoter-preference changes. We demonstrate the accuracy of our approach through differential analysis of lung fibroblasts in response to loss of the developmental transcription factor HOXA1 and uncover a critical role for this gene in the maintenance of adult cells. We show that HOXA1 is required for lung fibroblast and HeLa cell cycle progression, and loss of HOXA1 results in significant expression level changes in thousands of individual transcripts, along with isoform switching events in key regulators of the cell cycle. Lung Fibroblasts were transfected with either a HOXA1 directed siRNA pool or a scramble non-targeting siRNA control. RNA was collected 48 hours after transfection and changes in gene expression were assayed for using Agilent microarrays.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been globally profiled in cancers but there tends to be poor agreement between studies including in the same cancers. Additionally, few putative miRNA targets have been validated. To overcome the lack of reproducibility, we profiled miRNAs by next generation sequencing and locked nucleic acid miRNA microarrays, and we verified concordant changes by quantitative RT-PCR. Notably, miR-125b and the miR-99 family members miR-99a, -99b, -100 were down-regulated in all assays in advanced prostate cancer cell lines relative to the parental cell lines from which they were derived. All four miRNAs were also down-regulated in human prostate tumor tissue compared to normal prostate. Transfection of miR-99a, -99b or -100 inhibited the growth of prostate cancer cells and decreased the expression of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), suggesting potential roles as tumor suppressors in this setting. To identify targets of these miRNAs, we combined computational prediction of potential targets with experimental validation by microarray and polyribosomal loading analysis. Three direct targets of the miR-99 family that were validated in this manner were the chromatin remodeling factors SMARCA5 and SMARCD1 and the growth regulatory kinase mTOR. We determined that PSA is post-transcriptionally regulated by the miR-99 family members at least partially by repression of SMARCA5. Together, our findings suggest key functions and targets of miR-99 family members in prostate cancer suppression and prognosis. C4-2 cells were transfected with miR-99a and harvested after 48hr. si-GL2 was used as control.

Project description:Ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis play a significant role in various biological processes including transcription, DNA repair and cell cycle progression. The identification of Set8 and Set8b (a splice isoform) histone H4K20 methyl transferase as a substrate for the cullin-based ubiquitin ligase (CRL4-Cdt2) demonstrate that this pathway plays a significant role in promoting cell cycle progression, specifically promoting G2 progression. This study investigate the effect of failure to degrade Set8 in S-phase of the cell cycle via CRL4-Cdt2 on gene expression. We used microarrays to detail the effect of the expression of stable form of Set8b H4K20 mono-methyl transferase (Set8b_deltaPIP2) on gene expression Human osteosarcoma-derived human cells were transduced with retroviruses encoding either wt-Set8b or a mutant of Setb8 which is resistant to degradation via CRL4-Cdt2 ubiquitin ligase complex (Set8b_deltaPIP2) or with an a control pMSCV empty virus. 5 days after transduction, cells were harvested and the RNA was extracted by Trizol (Invitrogen) and hybridized to the affymetrix chips array.

Project description:Photoreactive fragment-like probes have been applied to discover target proteins that constitute novel cellular vulnerabilities and to identify viable chemical hits for drug discovery. Through forming covalent bonds, functionalized probes can achieve stronger target engagement and require less effort for on-target mechanism validation. However, the design of probe libraries, which directly affects the biological target space that is interrogated, and effective target prioritization remain critical challenges of such a chemical proteomic platform. In this study, we designed and synthesized a diverse panel of twenty fragment-based probes with privileged structural motifs containing both natural product and lead-like elements. These probes were fully functionalized with orthogonal diazirine and alkyne moieties and used for protein crosslinking in live lung cancer cells, target enrichment via “click chemistry,” and subsequent target identification through label-free quantitative LC-MS/MS analysis. Pair-wise comparison with a blunted negative control probe and stringent prioritization via individual cross-comparisons against the entire panel identified glutathione S-transferase zeta 1 (GSTZ1) as a specific and unique target candidate. DepMap database query, RNA interference-based gene silencing and proteome-wide tyrosine reactivity profiling suggested that GSTZ1 cooperated with different oncogenic alterations by supporting survival signaling in refractory NSCLC cells. This finding may form the basis for developing novel GSTZ1 inhibitors to improve the therapeutic efficacy of oncogene-directed targeted drugs. In summary, we designed a novel fragment-based probe panel and developed a target prioritization scheme with improved stringency, which allows for identification of unique target candidates, such as GSTZ1 in refractory lung cancer.
