Project description:To date, the success rate of serial animal cloning has decreased with increasing iterations and recloning has failed in all species after a few generations. This has suggested that recloning might be impossible because of the accumulation of lethal genetic or epigenetic abnormalities. Here, we carried out repeated recloning in the mouse using our somatic cell nuclear transfer method combined with a histone deacetylase inhibitor. The success rate of recloning did not decrease even after 25 iterations and more than 500 viable offspring have been obtained from a single original donor. Although the genomic reprogrammability of somatic cell nuclei did not improve, reprogramming errors or clone-specific abnormalities did not accumulate with recloning. Our results provide the first evidence that iterative recloning is possible, suggesting that animals might be able to be recloned indefinitely. Brain and liver samples from 4 somatic cell clone (CC), 4 somatic cell clones of 20 generations (G20) and 4 normal controls (ICSI) neonate.

Project description:61 human HCCs were analyzed for genome-wide gene expression. Samples were collected at two sites in Germany, Heidelberg (HD) and Hannover (N). The Heidelberg Collection include 40 independent HCC: 19 liver resections and 17 explant liver specimen (4 not determined); median age at surgery was 57 years (range, 16-78), and the male/female ratio was 3:1. All diagnoses were confirmed by histological reevaluation, and use of the samples was approved by the local ethics committee. From 3 patients, two HCC nodules were included that previously showed different aCGH, indicating independent tumor development (tagged by _2). The underlying etiologies were HBV (n=8), HCV (n=9), alcohol (n=14), cryptogenic (n=11), genetic hemochromatosis (n=3), and Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (n=2). The Hannover Collection include 21 HCC (HCC-Grad: G1-G3). Technical replicates were tagged with _B or _C differential genes expression in HCC liver (n=61) compared to control group (cell lines, n=3; normal liver tissue(NL), n=7). Technical replicates are indicated by _2.

Project description:The reprogramming of human fibroblasts to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) has been achieved through the expression of only a few exotic factors1-8, which is morphologically and molecularly verified in outer cellular states by characteristic markers, due to the remodeling of the somatic cell transcription programs in inner cellular states to the ES-like condition. Transcription factor-induced reprogramming to self-renewal and pluripotency raises the question as to how the exotic factors act to bring about these changes in the two cellular states9-11. Here, we applied RNA profiling to uncover gene expression changes and glycan profiling12 to survey structural changes in glycans, to compare hiPSCs and parental somatic cells, in total 51 cells, which were originally cultured and established, and the changes were analyzed by the combination of standard statistical techniques and a network approach13. We fist found a gene expression signature of 2502 genes with significant difference between iPSCs and SCs, and by the following network analysis by considering the expression signature, we found a network signature of 28 regulatory networks of 76 genes, which were related to the glycan biosynthetic pathways including 3 glycosyltransferase, in addition to well known signal pathways and cell-cell interaction pathways. Concomitantly, we found a glycan signature of six glycan structures characterized 16 lectins on lectin microarray by the correspondence with 12 glycosyltransferases in expression signature. In particular, the correspondence detected between the three expression signatures revealed 14 candidate glycosyltransferase, which are responsible for glycan transfer related to known epitopes for the differentiation such as SSEA epitope family in glycan biosynthesis pathway, based on characteristic changes in the cellular surface states of the hiPSCs. This sheds new light on a possible linkage between the inner and outer cellular states for reprogramming to self-renewal and pluripotency in hiPSC. Gene expressions in human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells and the provenance somatic cells . iPS cells were induced from four different somatic cells by infection of the retroviral vectors pMXs encoding OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC, simultaneously.

Project description:To demonstrate CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- subpopulations of hepatocellular carcinoma as distinct subgroups, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to reveal the gene profiles of different subgroups and identify genes responsible for the enhanced metastatic potentials of CD133+CD44+ tumor cells. CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- tumor cells were isolated from three human metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma specimens. A 76-gene consensus signature was identified that distinguished between CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- subgroups. CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- subgroups from different patients were well clustered as two distinct classes according to this signature, and many genes in this signature were reported involved in tumor metastasis. Expression of four genes (CCL4, DKK3, CCR5 and MMP12) from this signature was confirmed in another three metastatic HCC specimens by real-time PCR. CD133+CD44+ and CD133+CD44- subpopulations of hepatocellular carcinoma were isolated from three metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma specimens by flow cytometry. A total of 30K to 50K cells for each subgroup was obtained for each microarray.

Project description:Animals can thrive on variable food resources as a result of autonomous processes and beneficial relationships with their gut microbes. Food intake elicits major physiological changes, which are compensated with transient systemic responses that maintain homeostasis in the organism. This integration of external information occurs through cellular sensory elements, such as nuclear receptors, which modulate gene expression in response to specific cues. Given the importance of the germline stem cells (GSCs) for the development of the germ line and the continuity of the species, it is reasonable to assume that GSCs might be shielded from the negative influence of environmental perturbations. To our knowledge, however, there are no mechanisms reported that protect proliferating germ cells from harmful dietary metabolites. Using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model, we report that the somatic activity of the conserved nuclear receptor nhr-114/HNF4 protects GSC divisions and GSC integrity from dietary metabolites. In the absence of nhr-114 and on certain bacterial diets, otherwise somatically normal animals accumulate germ cell division defects during development and become sterile. We find that in nhr-114(-) animals the induction of germline defects and sterility depends on the bacterial metabolic status with respect to the essential amino acid tryptophan. This illustrates an animal-microbe interaction in which somatic nuclear receptor activity preserves the germline by buffering against dietary metabolites, likely through a somatic detoxifying response. Overall, our findings uncover an unprecedented and presumably evolutionary conserved soma-to-germline axis of communication that maintains reproductive robustness on variable food resources. Trasncriptional profiles of adult sterile nhr-114(RNAi) animals were compared to those of sterile glp-1(q224ts) animals. Independently, the transcriptional profiles of wild type animals fed an OP50 diet supplemented with Tryptophan was compared to wild type animals fed a standard OP50 diet.

Project description:Somatic cells surrounding the oocyte were sampled at the following stages: developmentally incompetent or poorly competent prophase I oocytes (NC1 oocytes), developmentally competent prophase I oocytes (C1 oocytes), and developmentally competent metaphase II oocytes (C2 oocytes). NC1 samples were collected from late vitellogenic females (LV), C1 samples from post-vitellogenic females (PV), and C2 samples from females undergoing meiotic maturation (Germinal Vesicle Breakdown) Global transcriptional profiling was performed using somatic cells collected from rainbow trout ovarian follicles during in vivo oocyte developmental competence acquisition. Somatic cells were collected at 3 stages of oogenesis: NC1 stage follicles (LV, late vitellogenic, prophase I arrested oocytes, meiotically incompetent and developmentally incompetent, n=6), C1 stage follicles (PV, post-vitellogenic, prophase I arrested oocytes, meiotically competent and developmentally competent, n=16). Ovulatory follicles were also collected during oocyte maturation after in vivo induction (metaphase II arrested oocytes, developmentally fully competent, n=6).

Project description:To better understand the extent to which induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) faithfully recapitulate the characteristics of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) under (undiff)erentiated condition, KSR condition and FBS condition and how both compare to somatic tissues under these conditions, we employed whole-genome transcriptome analysis on all twenty one hESC lines available on the pre-2008 NIH Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Registry, eight human iPSCs derived at NIH by retroviral transduction of human fibroblasts and twenty human somatic tissues. One standard culture protocol was used in conjunction with rigorous quality control. Expanded description of methods used and are available at: http://stemcelldb.nih.gov. 230 samples: 44 human ESC (UNDIFF), 16 human iPSC (UNDIFF) 44 human ESC (KSR), 15 human iPSC (KSR), 44 human ESC (FBS), 15 human iPSC (FBS), 1 human Brain, 1 human Placenta, 1 human Skeletal Muscle, 1 human Heart, 1 human Liver, 1 human Lung, 1 human Kidney, 1 human Esophagus, 1 human Ovary, 1 human Testes, 1 human Spleen, 1 human Adipose, 1 human Thyroid, 1 human Thymus, 1 human Small Intestine, 1 human Prostate, 1 human Cervix, 1 human Colon, 1 human Bladder, 1 human Trachea) and 32 processing controls (UniRef).

Project description:Chronic infections by hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) appear to be the most significant causes of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Aberrant promoter methylation is known to be deeply involved in cancer, including HCC. In this study, we analyzed aberrant promoter methylation on genome-wide scale in 6 HCCs including 3 HBV-related and 3 HCV-related HCCs, 6 matched noncancerous liver tissues and 3 normal liver tissues by methylated DNA immunoprecipitation-on-chip analysis. Candidate genes with promoter methylation were detected more frequently in HCV-related HCC. Candidate genes methylated preferentially to HBV-related or HCV-related HCCs were detected and selected, and methylation levels of the selected genes were validated using 125 liver tissue samples, including 61 HCCs (28 HBV-related HCCs and 33 HCV-related HCCs) and matched 59 matched noncancerous livers, and 5 normal livers, by quantitative methylation analysis using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Among analyzed genes, preferential methylation in HBV-related HCC was validated in 1 gene only. However, 15 genes were found methylated preferentially in HCV-related HCC, which was independent from age. Hierarchical clustering of HCC using these 15 genes stratified HCV-related HCC as a cluster of frequently methylated samples. The 15 genes included genes inhibitory to cancer-related signaling such as RAS/RAF/ERK and Wnt/b-catenin pathways. It was indicated that genes methylated preferentially in HCV-related HCC exist, and it was suggested that DNA methylation might play an important role in HCV-related HCC by silencing cancer-related pathway inhibitors. we analyzed aberrant promoter methylation in 6 HCC clinical samples (including 3 HBV-related HCCs and 3 HCV-related HCCs) and their matched noncancerous tissues on genome-wide scale by the method. Candidate regions of promoter methylation preferentially to HBV-related HCC and HCV-related HCC were selected, and the methylation levels of these genes were measured quantitatively using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Expression levels of these 6 pairs of HCC and 4 more pairs of HCCs and surrounding noncancerous tissues were analyzed by expression array and are reported in this Series. <br><br>This experiment was reloaded in November 2010 after additional curation. this dataset is part of the TransQST collection.
