Transcription profiling of mouse induced pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: We have previously shown that pluripotent stem cells are induced from mouse fibroblasts by retroviral introduction of Oct3/4, Sox2, c-Myc and Klf4, and subsequent selection for Fbx15 expression. These iPS (induced pluripotent stem) cells are similar to embryonic stem (ES) cells in morphology, proliferation and teratoma formation. Fbx15-iPS cells, however, are different in gene expression and DNA methylation patterns and fail to produce adult chimeras. Here we show that selection for Nanog results in germ-line competent iPS cells, with more ES cell-like gene expression and DNA methylation patterns. The four transgenes were strongly silenced. We obtained adult chimeras from seven Nanog-iPS clones, with one clone transmitted through the germ-line to the next generation. Approximately 20% of the offspring developed tumors, where c-Myc transgene was reactivated. Thus iPS cells competent for germ-line chimeras can be obtained from fibroblasts, but retroviral introduction of c-Myc should be avoided for clinical application. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA from Fbx15-null MEF (duplicate), Fbx15-null ES cells (duplicate), Fbx15-iPS cells (clone MEF4-7, duplicate), or Nanog-iPS cells (clones 20D -2, 16, 17, and 18) were labeled with Cy3. Samples were hybridized to a Mouse Oligo Microarray (Agilent) according to the manufacturerâs protocol. Arrays were scanned with a G2565BA Microarray Scanner System (Agilent). Data were analyzed using GeneSprings GX software (Agilent). We excluded genes whose value fluctuated more than 2-fold between duplicated analyses.

We have previously shown that pluripotent stem cells can be induced from mouse fibroblasts by retroviral introduction of Oct3/4 (also called Pou5f1), Sox2, c-Myc and Klf4, and subsequent selection for Fbx15 (also called Fbxo15) expression. These induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells (hereafter called Fbx15 iPS cells) are similar to embryonic stem (ES) cells in morphology, proliferation and teratoma formation; however, they are different with regards to gene expression and DNA methylation patterns ...[more]

Project description:One Âµg of total RNA from either an; individual rat or from a pooled sample was amplified and labeled with a; fluorescent dye (either Cy3 or Cy5) using the Low RNA Input Linear Amplification Labeling kit (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA) following the manufacturerâ??s protocol. The amount and quality of the resulting fluorescently labeled cRNA was assessed using a Nanodrop ND-100 spectrophometer and an Agilent; Bioanalyzer. Equal amounts of Cy3- or Cy5-labeled cRNA were hybridized to the Agilent Rat Oligo Microarray (Agilent Technologies, Inc., Palo Alto, CA) for 17 hrs, prior to washing and scanning. Data was extracted from the resulting; images using Agilentâ??s Feature Extraction Software (Agilent Technologies, Inc., Palo Alto, CA). For day/night comparisons, two types of complementing hybridizations were performed: hepatic RNA from individual day rats was hybridized against a pool made up of RNA from 12 hour offset night rats, and RNA from individual night rats was hybridized against a pool made up of RNA from 12-hour offset day rats. Specifically, hepatic RNA samples from three individual day rats collected ten hours after light on (CT10) were hybridized against a pooled RNA sample composed of equal aliquots of RNA from the livers of six night rats collected ten hrs after lights off (CT22); and RNA samples from three individual night rats collected at CT22 were hybridized against a pooled RNA sample composed of equal aliquots of RNA from the livers of six day rats collected at CT10. This was replicated in a second study for a total of 24 hybridizations of 12 hour offset samples. For time of day comparisons, equal aliquots of RNA from the livers of six; rats collected at each of four different times of the circadian day (CT4, CT10, C16 and CT22) were pooled. The two replicate studies thus resulted in 8 pools (two replicate pools/time point times four time points); each pool was hybridized against a Universal Rat Reference RNA Standard (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA).

Project description:To date, there is little information on early molecular events in the development of N-nitrosomethylbenzylamine (NMBA) induced esophageal tumorigenesis and of the effects of chemopreventive agents on these events. In this study, we identified genes in rat esophagus that were differentially expressed in response to shortâ??term NMBA-treatment and modulated by co-treatment with phenethylisothiocyanate (PEITC). Rats were fed AIN-76A diet or AIN-76A diet containing PEITC for three weeks. During the third week of dietary treatment, they were administered three s.c. doses of NMBA (0.5 mg/kg b.w.). Rats were sacrificed 24 h after the last treatment, esophagi excised and processed for histological grading, microarray and real-time PCR analysis. Our histopathological data showed that treatment of rats with PEITC had protective effect on NMBA-induced preneoplastic lesions in the rat esophagus. We identified 2261 genes that were differentially expressed in the NMBA-treated vs. control esophagi and 1936 genes in the NMBA+PEITC- vs. NMBA-treated esophagi. The intersection of these two sets resulted in the identification of 1323 genes in NMBA-treated esophagus that were modulated by PEITC to near-normal levels of expression. The measured changes in the expression levels of 10 selected genes were validated using real-time PCR. Principle components analysis (PCA) was applied to all twelve microarrays in the study, which suggested that in terms of global gene expression, PEITC treatment had a genome-wide modulating effect on NMBA-induced gene expression. Samples obtained from animals treated with PEITC alone or co-treated with NMBA were more similar to controls than they were to NMBA treatment alone. Experiment Overall Design: For each treatment we used a pooling strategy to enable the inclusion of samples from numerous animals. Three replicate microarrays were completed for each of the four treatments (control, PEITC, NMBA and NMBA+PEITC) for a total of twelve microarrays. Each microarray was hybridized using a pooled RNA sample, and each pool was created from equal amounts of total RNA from two or three independent RNA samples, representing individual animals. Each of these samples was obtained from a different animal, and no sample was included in more than one pool. In total, samples from nine animals per group were pooled for control, NMBA, PEITC and NMBA+PEITC microarrays. To facilitate comparisons of gene expression across all treatments, we utilized a reference design in which each microarray was co-hybridized with a common reference sample labeled with Cy3, and RNA from the treatment pool was labeled with Cy5. Stratageneâ??s Universal Rat reference RNA (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA) was used as the common reference in all microarrays.

Project description:Antipsychotic drugs are classified as typical and atypical based on extrapyramidal effects. However, since the frontal cortex is one of the most important regions for antipsychotic actions, this study attempted to classify antipsychotic drugs based on gene expression in the frontal cortex. Chlorpromazine and thioridazine were selected as typical antipsychotics, and olanzapine and quetiapine as atypical antipsychotics. Since these drugs have similar chemical structures, the effect of the basic structure on gene expression can be eliminated. Cluster analysis of microarray experiments showed thioridazine and olanzapine constituted a robust cluster. K-means clustering separated 4-drug-administered mice into chlorpromazine-quetiapine and thioridazine-olanzapine groups. This classification scheme is different from that which is based on criteria currently used to group the typical and atypical drugs and suggests that antipsychotic drugs can be further separated into multiple groups. Experiment Overall Design: Male 13-week-old ddY mice (Japan SLC Co., Hamamatsu, Japan) weighing 38-43 g were used. Animals were housed with free access to standard food in an air-conditioned room under a constant dark-and-light cycle (light: 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.) at a temperature of 22 to 24Â°C and 60 to 70% relative humidity. Ether was used for anesthesia during decapitation. All efforts were made to minimize animal suffering and to reduce the number of animals used. The present experiments were carried out after obtaining permission from the Committee of Animal Experimentation of the Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences at Kagoshima University. Experiment Overall Design: Doses of 25 mg/kg chlorpromazine HCl (Sigma-Aldrich Co., St. Louis, MO), 25 mg/kg thioridazine HCl (Sigma-Aldrich Co.), 1.25 mg/kg olanzapine (gift from Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, IN) and 18.75 mg/kg quetiapine fumarate (gift from AstraZeneca, Macclesfield, UK) were used in the study. The dosages for these drugs were determined from therapeutically equivalent doses previously reported (Lehman et al, 2003; Woods, 2003). The drugs were dissolved in acetic anhydride and diluted with 0.9% saline, resulting in a final concentration of acetic acid of 0.5%. The drugs were injected intraperitoneally once daily for 28 consecutive days in a volume of 0.1 ml/10 g body weight. Experiment Overall Design: Microarray experiments were performed using an Agilent G4121A Mouse Oligo Microarray Kit (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA) as per the manufacturerâ??s instructions. The frontal cortex was immediately removed and the RNA was stabilized in RNAlater RNA Stabilization Reagent (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) and stored at -80Â°C until use. Total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). The RNA was amplified and labeled by the Low RNA Input Fluorescent Linear Amplification Kit (Agilent). To synthesize cDNA, 200 ng total RNA was used. Vehicle-injected controls were labeled by cyanine 3 (PerkinElmer Life Sciences, Inc., Boston, MA) and drug-injected mice were labeled by cyanine 5 (PerkinElmer Life Sciences, Inc.). Hybridizations to the microarray were performed using the In situ Hybridization Kit Plus (Agilent). Doses of 750 ng cyanine 3-labeled cRNA, 750 ng cyanine 5-labeled cRNA, and control targets were mixed and fragmented in the kitâ??s fragmentation buffer, and then hybridized to the microarrays for 17 hours at 60Â°C in a hybridization rotator (Agilent) set to rotate at 4 rpm. Microarrays were washed in 6Ã?SSC with 0.005% Triton X-102 at RT for 10 min, followed by 0.1Ã?SSC with 0.005% Triton X-102 at 4Â°C for 5 min. The slides were dried, and then scanned by the Agilent G2565BA Microarray Scanner System. Data were analyzed using the Agilent Feature Extraction Software version 7.1. A rank consistency filter and LOWESS were used for dye normalization. Control mice and drug-injected mice were processed in parallel. The data discussed in this publication are presented in accordance with the MIAME guidelines (http://www.mged.org/Workgroups/MIAME/miame.html) and were deposited in NCBIs Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/). They can be accessed using the GEO series accession number GSE1501. Experiment Overall Design: Cluster analysis was performed using free software written by M. Eisen (http://rana.lbl.gov/EisenSoftware.htm). The cclust package in the â??Râ?? statistical software system (www.cran.r-project.org) was used to find the most appropriate number of clusters (i.e. â??kâ?? in the k-means clustering).
