Project description:Very little is known about how intervertebral disc (IVD) is formed or maintained. Members of the TGF-ß superfamily are secreted signaling proteins that regulate many aspects of development including cellular differentiation. We recently showed that deletion of Tgfbr2 in Col2a expressing tissue results in alterations in development of IVD annulus fibrosus. The results suggested TGF-ß has an important role in regulating development of the axial skeleton, however, the mechanistic basis of TGF-ß action in these specialized joints is not known. To understand the mechanism of TGF-ß action in IVD development, we undertook a global analysis of gene expression comparing gene expression profiles in sclerotome cultures treated with TGF-ß or BMP4. As expected, treatment with BMP4 resulted in up-regulation of cartilage marker genes including Acan, Sox 5, Sox6, and Sox9. In contrast, treatment with TGF-ß1 did not regulate expression of cartilage markers but instead resulted in up-regulation of many IVD markers including Fmod and Adamtsl2. We propose TGF-ß has two functions in IVD development: 1) to prevent chondrocyte differentiation in the presumptive IVD and 2) to promote differentiation of annulus fibrosus from sclerotome. We have identified genes that are enriched in the IVD and regulated by TGF-ß that warrant further investigation as regulators of IVD development.

The results suggested TGF-ß has an important role in regulating development of the axial skeleton, however, the mechanistic basis of TGF-ß action in these specialized joints is not known. One of the hurdles to understanding development of IVD is a lack of known markers. To identify genes that are enriched in the developing IVD and to begin to understand the mechanism of TGF-ß action in IVD development, we undertook a global analysis of gene expression comparing gene expression profiles in developing vertebrae and IVD. We also compared expression profiles in tissues from wild type and Tgfbr2 mutant mice. Lists of IVD and vertebrae enriched genes were generated. Expression patterns for several genes were verified either through in situ hybridization or literature/ database searches resulting in a list of genes that can be used as markers of IVD. Cluster analysis using genes listed under the Gene Ontology terms multicellular organism development and pattern specification indicated that mutant IVD more closely resembled vertebrae than wild type IVD. We propose TGF-ß has two functions in IVD development: 1) to prevent chondrocyte differentiation in the presumptive IVD and 2) to promote differentiation of annulus fibrosus from sclerotome. We have identified genes that are enriched in the IVD and regulated by TGF-ß that warrant further investigation as regulators of IVD development. Thirteen samples were analyzed. This includes three biological replicates of laser captured IVD from E13.5 day control mice, three biological replicates of laser captured vertebrae from the same E13.5 day control mice, three biological relicates of laser captured vertebrae from E13.5 day Col2aCre;Tgfbr2lox/lox mice, and four biological replicates of laser captured IVD from E13.5 day Col2aCre;Tgfbr2lox/lox mice.

Project description:FoxO transcription factors promote longevity across taxa. How they do so is poorly understood. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the A- and F-isoforms of the FoxO transcription factor DAF-16 extend life span in the context of reduced DAF-2 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGFR) signaling. To elucidate the mechanistic basis for DAF-16/FoxO-dependent life span extension, we performed an integrative analysis of isoform-specific daf-16/FoxO mutants. In contrast to previous studies suggesting that DAF-16F plays a more prominent role in life span control than DAF-16A, isoform-specific daf-16/FoxO mutant phenotypes and whole transcriptome profiling revealed a predominant role for DAF-16A over DAF-16F in life span control, stress resistance, and target gene regulation. Integration of these data sets enabled the prioritization of a subset of 92 DAF-16/FoxO target genes for functional interrogation. Among 29 genes tested, two DAF-16A-specific target genes significantly influenced longevity. Our discovery of new longevity genes underscores the efficacy of our integrative strategy while providing a general framework for identifying specific downstream gene regulatory events that contribute substantially to transcription factor functions. As FoxO transcription factors have conserved functions in promoting longevity and may be dysregulated in aging-related diseases, these findings promise to illuminate fundamental principles underlying aging in animals. Whole-transcriptome profiling of daf-16/FoxO isoform-specific deletion mutants in the long-lived daf-2(e1370) background. Included are daf-16 wild-type, daf-16 null mutation, daf-16a/f mutation, two independent daf-16a mutations, and daf-16f mutation. N2 wild-type controls are also included.

Project description:Cadmium is an environmental pollutant that has extensive deleterious effects. However, the mechanisms underlying the hepatotoxicity induced by long-term exposure to cadmium remained undefined. In the present study, we explored the role of m6A methylation in the development of cadmium-induced liver disease. We showed a dynamic change of RNA methylation in liver tissue from mice administrated with cadmium chloride (CdCl2) for 3, 6 and 9 months, respectively. Particularly, the METTL3 expression was declined in a time-dependent manner, associated with the degree of liver injury, indicating the involvement of METTL3 in hepatotoxicity induced by CdCl2. Moreover, we established a mouse model with liver-specific over-expression of Mettl3 and administrated these mice with CdCl2 for 6 months. Notably, METTL3 highly expressed in hepatocytes attenuated CdCl2-induced steatosis and liver fibrosis in mice. In vitro assay also showed METTL3 overexpression ameliorated the CdCl2-induced cytotoxicity and activation of primary hepatic stellate cells. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis identified 268 differentially expressed genes both in mice liver tissue treated with CdCl2 for 3 months and 9 months. Among them, 115 genes were predicted to be regulated by METTL3 determined by m6A2Target database. Further analysis revealed the perturbation of metabolic pathway, glycerophospholipid metabolism, ErbB signaling pathway, Hippo signaling pathway, and choline metabolism in cancer, and circadian rhythm, led to hepatotoxicity induced by CdCl2. Collectively, our findings reveal new insight into the crucial role of epigenetic modifications in hepatic diseases caused by long-term exposure to cadmium.

Project description:Alveolar type II (ATII) epithelial cells function as stem cells, contributing to alveolar renewal, repair and cancer. Therefore, they are a highly relevant model for studying lung diseases, including acute injury, fibrosis and cancer, in which signals transduced by RAS and transforming growth factor (TGF)-ß play critical roles. To identify downstream molecular events following RAS and/or TGF-ß activation, we performed proteomic analysis using a quantitative label-free approach (LC-HDMSE) to provide in-depth proteome coverage and estimates of protein concentration in absolute amounts.

Project description:Argonaute (Ago) proteins, which act in post-transcriptional gene regulation directed by small RNAs, are vital for normal stem cell biology. Here we report the genomic characterization of stable Ago-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC) and determine the direct, primary and system level response to loss of Ago-mediated regulation. We find mESCs lacking all four Ago proteins are viable, do not repress microRNA (miRNA)-targeted cellular RNAs, and show distinctive gene network signatures. Profiling of RNA expression and epigenetic activity in an Ago mutant genetic series indicates that early responses to Ago loss are driven by transcriptional regulatory networks, in particular the Tgf-ß/Smad transcriptional network. This finding is confirmed using a time course analysis of Ago depletion and Ago rescue experiments. Detailed analysis places Tgf-ß/Smad activation upstream of cell cycle regulator activation, such as Cdkn1a, and repression of the c-Myc transcriptional network. The Tgf-ß/Smad pathway is directly controlled by multiple low-affinity miRNA interactions with Tgf-ß/Activin receptor mRNAs and receptor-mediated activation is required for Tgf-ß/Smad target induction with Ago loss. Our characterization reveals the interplay of post-transcriptional regulatory pathways with transcriptional networks in maintaining cell state and likely coordinating cell state transitions.
