Project description:Regulator of sex-limitation (rsl) is a recessive mouse phenotype in which the otherwise male-specific sex-limited protein (Slp) gene is expressed in females. Positional cloning in rsl mice led to the identification of mutations in two neighboring KRAB zinc finger transcriptional repressors, Rsl1 and Rsl2, and BAC transgenic rescue experiements verified their ability to repress male-specific genes in the liver. Microarrays were used here to identify RSL-sensitive genes in mouse abdominal white adipose tissue. Experiment type: sex comparison and genetic modification Total RNA was extracted from abdominal white adipose tissue of adult male and female wild type and Rsl-null mice. Equivalent amounts of RNA were pooled from five mice per sex and genotype. Two pools per sex and genotype were hybridized to the Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 PM Array Strip.

Positional cloning in rsl mice led to the identification of mutations in two neighboring KRAB zinc finger transcriptional repressors, Rsl1 and Rsl2, and BAC transgenic rescue experiements verified their ability to repress male-specific genes in the liver. Microarrays were used here to expand the list of Rsl-target genes in mouse liver. Enrichment of genes involved in intermediary metabolism among those responsive to Rsl suggest a role for Rsl1/2 in metabolic homeostasis in the mouse. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was extracted from livers of adult male and female wild type, rsl-null and transgenic mice that overexpress Rsl1 or Rsl2, specifically in the liver. Equivalent amounts of RNA were pooled from five or more mice per sex and genotype. Two pools per sex and genotype were hybridized to the Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 array.

Project description:The aim of the study is to evaluate Pit-1-induced genes in the MCF-7 cell line The Pit-1 transcription factor (also known as POU1F1) plays a critical role in cell differentiation during organogenesis of the anterior pituitary in mammals and is a transcriptional activator for pituitary gene transcription. Increased expression of Pit-1 has been reported in human tumorigenic breast cells. Here, we found that Pit-1 overexpression or knockdown in human breast cancer cell lines induced profound phenotypic changes in the expression of proteins involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion. In immunodeficient mice, Pit-1 overexpression induced tumoral growth and promoted metastasis in lung. In patients with invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast and node-positive tumors elevated expression of Pit-1 was significantly and independently associated with the occurrence of distant metastasis. These findings suggest that Pit-1 could help to make a more accurate prognosis in patients with node positive breast cancer and may represent a new therapeutic target (Journal of Clinical Investigation 2010, 120:4289-4302)

Project description:POU1F1 regulates, in the pituitary, the development of the prolactin-, growth hormone- and thyrotropin ß-expressing lineages and the expression of these hormone in the mature pituitary through the direct regulation of their promoters. Besides these functions, POU1F1 is also involved in other cellular processes in the pituitary, such as cell division and survival, but the genomic targets involved in these actions are not known. The present ChIP-chip study identified a large number of hitherto unknown potential direct targets that might be involved in these actions, such as Tcf4, Lmo4, Pax6, Trp53 etc. ChIP-chip was done from pregnant female mouse (C57Bl/6J) pituitary (3 pools of 12 pituitary anterior lobes, corresponding to three biological replicates) with POU1F1 (PIT-1)

Project description:The anterior pituitary-specific transcription factor POU1F1 (also called PIT-1) was initially identified and cloned as a transactivator of PRL, GH and TSHß subunit genes. Different studies indicated that POU1F1 could also have other functions in these cells. The identification of new targets of this factor could be useful to obtain a better understanding of these functions. Gene expression microarray assays were used to detect genes that have their expression modified in somatolactotrope GH4C1 cells by the expression of a dominant negative form of POU1F1, POU1F1(R271W).

Project description:Glucocorticoids have major effects on adipose tissue metabolism. To study tissue mRNA expression changes induced by chronic elevated endogenous glucocorticoids, we performed RNA sequencing on subcutaneous adipose tissue from patients with Cushing’s disease (n=5) compared to patients with non-functioning pituitary adenomas (n=11). We found higher expression of transcripts involved in several metabolic pathways, including lipogenesis, proteolysis and glucose oxidation as well as decreased expression of transcripts involved in inflammation and protein synthesis. To further study this in a model system, we subjected mice to dexamethasone treatment for 12 weeks and analyzed their inguinal (subcutaneous) fat pads, which led to similar findings. Additionally, mice treated with dexamethasone showed drastic decreases in lean body mass as well as increased fat mass, further supporting the human transcriptomic data. These data provide insight to transcriptional changes that may be responsible for the co-morbidities associated with chronic elevations of glucocorticoids DESIGN: Patients with cushing's (n=5) or non-functioning pituitary adenoma (n=11) were prospectively observed from March 2011 to June 2012.

Project description:This study, using a growth hormone (GH)-deficient dwarf animal model and peripheral GH replacement, investigated the effects of circulating IGF-1 during adolescence on IGF-1 levels in the brain. Our results demonstrated that hippocampal IGF-1 protein concentrations during adolescence are highly regulated by circulating IGF-1, which were reduced by GH deficiency and restored by systematic GH replacement. In contrast, IGF-1 levels in the CSF were decreased by GH deficiency but not restored by GH replacement. Furthermore, analysis of gene expression using microarrays and RT-PCR indicated that circulating IGF-1 levels did not modify the transcription of IGF-1 or its receptor in the hippocampus but did regulate genes that are involved in microvascular structure and function, brain development, and synaptic plasticity, which potentially support brain structures involved in cognitive function during this important developmental period. GH-deficient dwarf (dw/dw) and heterozygous (HZ) rats were identified at postnatal day 33-34. Starting from d35, dw/dw rats received subcutaneous injection of either 300µg GH (dw/dw+GH) or saline (dw/dw+sal) for 7d or 30d. HZ animals received saline for the same periods as controls. Animals (n=4/group for each time point) were sacrificed, the hippocampi were dissected, and total RNA were isolated for subsequent transcriptomic profiling.

Project description:The genetic foundation of chicken tail feather color is not very well studied to date, though that of body feather color is extensively explored. In the present study, we used a synthetic chicken dwarf line (DW), which was originated from the hybrids between a black tail chicken breed, Rhode Island Red (RIR) and a white tail breed, Dwarf Layer (DL), to understand the genetic rules of the white/black tail color. The DW line still contain the individuals with black or white tails, even if the body feather are predominantly red, after more than ten generation of self-crossing and being selected for the body feather color. We firstly performed four crosses using the DW line chickens including black tail male to female, reciprocal crosses between the black and white, and white male to female to elucidate the inheritance pattern of the white/black tail. We found that (i) the white/black tail feather colors are independent of body feather color and (ii) the phenotype are autosomal simple trait and (iii) the white are dominant to the black in the DW lines. Furtherly, we performed a genome-wide association (GWA) analysis to determine the candidate genomic regions underlying the tail feather color by using black tail chickens from the RIR and DW chickens and white individuals from DW lines.
