Gene expression analysis of HepG2 cells by NOTUM RNAi

ABSTRACT: We identified human NOTUM, a new member of beta-catenin target gene. The aim of this analysis is to examine downstream genes of NOTUM. Keywords: Gene expression analysis in response to RNA interference HepG2 cells with RNAi duplexed were used. One control (control-low GC) and 2 RNAi duplexes (NOTUM RNAi#1 and #2) for NOTUM silencing were added to HepG2 cells, and total RNAs were isolated at 72 hours after transfection.

Project description:Epstein Barr virus (EBV) nuclear antigen 3C (EBNA3C) is an essential transcription factor for initiating and maintaining human B lymphocyte transformation to lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs). To comprehensively identify EBNA3C regulated cell genes in LCLs, oligonucleotide arrays were used to compare RNA abundances in 3 different LCLs transformed by an EBV that conditionally expresses EBNA3C. Cell RNA levels were assessed in actively growing LCLs, under non-permissive or permissive conditions or under non-permissive conditions after transcomplementation with wild type EBNA3C. A two-way ANOVA model with covariates including the 3 different clone effects and the 3 EBNA3C expression levels, identified 550 EBNA3C regulated genes, with False Discovery Rate <0.01 and >1.5 fold change. A seeded Bayesian network analysis of the 80 most significantly EBNA3C regulated genes that changed >1.5 fold, positioned RAC1, LYN and TNF upstream of other EBNA3C regulated genes. Further, Gene Set Enrichment Assay (GSEA) identified EBNA3C regulated genes to be enriched for MAP kinase signaling, cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions, JAK-STAT signaling, and cell adhesion molecule effects, implicating these pathways in LCL growth or survival. Moreover, 106 EBNA3C regulated genes could be placed in protein interaction networks. Since CXCL12 and CXCR4 signaling are implicated in LCL growth and were EBNA3C up-regulated, up-regulation of CXCL12 was validated by qRT-PCR and effects on induced LCL migration were confirmed. EBNA3C regulated genes significantly overlapped with EBNA2 and EBNA3A regulated genes, consistent with a central role for RBP/CSL in these effects. RNAs from three different Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines(LCLs) expressing conditional EBNA3C grown under permissive or non-permissive conditions for 7 days; the same LCLs transcompletemented with EBNA3C expressed in trans at full wild-type level were used to identify EBNA3C regualted cellular genes. Total cell RNAs were hybrdized to Affymetrix U-133 Plus 2.0 microarrays. A two way ANOVA model was developed with covariates including the 3 different clone effects and the 3 EBNA3C expression levels and identified 550 EBNA3C regulated genes.

Project description:Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Latent Membrane Protein 1 (LMP1) transforms rodent fibroblasts and is expressed in most EBV-associated malignancies. LMP1 Transformation Effector Site 2 (TES2)/C-Terminal Activation Region 2 (CTAR2) activates NF-kappaB, p38, JNK, ERK and IRF7 pathways. We have investigated LMP1 TES2 genome-wide RNA effects at 4 time points after LMP1 TES2 expression in HEK 293 cells. Using a False Discovery Rate (FDR) of < 0.001 after correction for multiple hypotheses, LMP1 TES2 caused > 2-fold changes in 1916 mRNAs; 1479 RNAs were up-regulated and 437 down-regulated. In contrast to TNFalpha stimulation, which transiently up-regulates many target genes, LMP1 TES2 maintained most RNA effects through the time course, despite robust and sustained induction of negative feedback regulators, such as IkappaBalpha and A20. LMP1 TES2 regulated RNAs encode many NF-kappaB signaling proteins and secondary interacting proteins. Consequently, many LMP1 TES2-regulated RNAs encode proteins that form an extensive interactome. Gene Set Enrichment Analyses found LMP1 TES2 up-regulated genes to be significantly enriched for Pathways in Cancer, B-and T-cell receptor signaling, and Toll-like receptor signaling. Surprisingly, LMP1 TES2 and IkappaBalpha super-repressor co-expression decreased LMP1 TES2 RNA effects to only 5 RNAs with FDR<0.001 and >2 fold change. Thus, canonical NF-kappaB activation is critical for almost all LMP1 TES2 RNA effects in HEK-293 cells and a more significant therapeutic target than previously appreciated. An LMP1 double point mutant (P204A, Q206A) was used to construct a HEK-293 TET-On LMP1 TES2 cell line. Stable cell clones were selected that carry an inducible system for LMP1 TES2 expression. The Tet-system is composed of three parts: 1) the LMP1 TES2 cDNA cloned into the tetracycline-regulated pJEF vector; 2) a tetracycline suppressor (tTS) that binds Tet-operator sites in the absence of tetracyclines and silences expression; 3) a reverse-tetracycline transactivator fused to the 4-hydroxy tamoxifen (4HT) ligand binding domain (rTTA M2). LMP1 expression was induced by addition of doxycycline (1 ug/ml) and 4HT (100 nM). For simultaneous inducible expression of LMP1 TES2 and an IkBa super-repressor, a stable cell line was derived. A pJEF vector encoding IkBa residues 37-317 was introduced into the inducible LMP1 TES2 cell line. Cell lines were cultured with DMEM (GIBCO) supplemented with 10% tetracycline-free serum (Clontech). LMP1 expression was induced by addition of tetracycline (1 ug/ml). RNA samples were collected from triplicate samples using RNABee (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s instructions from 293 cells induced for LMP1 TES2 (and IkBa super-repressor, where indicated) expression at 0, 6, 9, 12 and 24 hours of induction. Cells were in the log-phase of growth. Gene expression profiles were assayed using the Affymetrix HU-133 plus2 GeneChip according to the manufacturer's instructions. Real-time RT-PCR was performed with the Power SYBR Green RNA-to-CT™ 1-Step Kit (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). Fold changes were determined using delta delta Ct method and normalized by GAPDH expression levels. RNA expression data were normalized using RMA and array quality assessed by NUSE and RLE scores. The data was collected according to methods that fall under the MIAME standards.

Project description:Aging animals display a decline in a multitude of physical and physiological functions, including muscle function and strength. Muscle gene expression in dogs has been evaluated for a few select genes under pathogenic or varying dietary conditions, but global gene expression profiles of aged animals has not been performed. Because the mechanisms contributing to age-related decline in muscle function are poorly defined, we used canine microarrays to compare gene expression profiles of muscle tissue from geriatric and young adult dogs. Skeletal muscle (biceps femoris) samples were collected from 6 geriatric (12 yr-old) and 6 young adult (1 yr-old) female beagles after being fed one of two diets (animal protein-based versus plant-protein based) for 12 months. RNA samples were hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Canine Genome Arrays. Statistical analyses indicated that age had the greatest impact on gene expression, with 262 genes differentially expressed in geriatric dogs. Although not as robust as age, diet affected mRNA abundance of 22 genes. The effect of age was most notable in genes related to metabolism, cell cycle and cell development, and transcription function, with all of these functional groups being predominantly down-regulated in older animals. The effect of diet on gene expression was mostly limited to the geriatric animals, but interactions between age and diet do not allow for a clear-cut pattern of gene expression to be observed. Keywords: age; diet Six geriatric (11.1 yr old) and 6 weanling (8 wk old) female beagles were used. Three dogs of each age were assigned to one of two dietary treatments and fed for 12 months. Diets tested in this experiment were previously shown to manipulate energy metabolism. One diet was an animal-protein based diet (APB) and was composed primarily of highly digestible ingredients and animal-derived protein and fat sources (brewerâs rice, poultry by-product meal, poultry fat) and was formulated to contain 28% protein, 23% fat, and 5% dietary fiber. The other diet was a plant-protein based diet (PPB) and was composed primarily of moderately digestible plant-derived ingredients (corn, soybean meal, wheat middlings, and meat and bone meal) and was formulated to contain 26% protein, 11% fat, and 15% dietary fiber. Although the two diets were very different in terms of ingredient and chemical composition, both were formulated to meet or exceed all nutrient requirements for canine growth according to the Association of American Feed Control Officials. Young dogs were fed ad libitum to allow for adequate growth, while geriatric dogs were fed to maintain baseline BW throughout the experiment. To produce the desired metabolic effects, the PPB diet was formulated to contain a lower caloric density (APB = 5.38 kcal/g; PPB = 4.75 kcal/g) and have a lower nutrient digestibility than the APB diet. Thus, dogs fed the PPB diet needed to consume a greater (P<0.05) quantity of food (237 g/d; 1123 kcal/d) than dogs fed the APB diet (166 g/d; 893 kcal/d) to grow (young) or maintain BW (geriatrics). Even though metabolic indices were altered, mean BW among dietary treatments was not different at any time over the course of the study for young or geriatric dogs. After 12 months on experiment, animals were fasted for 12 hr and then given a lethal dose (130 mg/kg BW) of sodium pentobarbital (Euthasol, Virbac Corp., Fort Worth, TX) intravenously into the left forearm. Death was confirmed by lack of respiration and a corneal reflex, and absence of a heartbeat detected with a stethoscope placed under the left elbow. Skeletal muscle samples were collected immediately after death was confirmed, flash frozen using liquid nitrogen, and stored at -80oC until further analysis.

Project description:Mechanisms contributing to age-related cognitive decline are poorly defined. Thus, we used canine microarrays to compare gene expression profiles of brain tissue from geriatric and young adult dogs. Cerebral cortex samples were collected from 6 geriatric (12 yr-old) and 6 young adult (1 yr-old) female beagles after being fed one of two diets (animal protein-based versus plant-protein based) for 12 months. RNA samples were hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Canine Genome Arrays. Statistical analyses indicated that the age had the greatest impact on gene expression, with 963 transcripts differentially expressed in geriatric dogs. Although not as robust as age, diet affected mRNA abundance of 140 transcripts. As demonstrated in aged rodents and humans, geriatric dogs had increased expression of genes associated with inflammation, stress response, and calcium homeostasis and decreased expression of genes associated with neuropeptide signaling and synaptic transmission. In addition to its existing strengths, availability of gene sequence information and commercial microarrays make the canine a powerful model for studying the effects of aging on cognitive function. Keywords: age; diet Six geriatric (11.1 yr old) and 6 weanling (8 wk old) female beagles were used. Three dogs of each age were assigned to one of two dietary treatments and fed for 12 months.
