Project description:BPH-1 prostate epithelial cells when cultured in Matrigel form 3D acini which closely recapitulate the tissue architecture of the prostate. The presence of primary stroma increases epithelial adhesions and causes changes in morphology. To identify the stromal signals which control actin/cadherin dynamics in epithelial cells we performed a microarray analysis on the stroma using Affymetrix U133 plus 2.0 arrays. Primary stroma from 7 different patients were cultured with (PSE) or without (PS) 3D BPH-1 epithelial acini to determine the gene expression changes within the stroma. The RNA from the Primary epithelia and stromal cultures were used at passages 1 or 1-3, respectively.

Project description:Protein Arginine MethylTransferase 5 (PRMT5) is known to mediate epigenetic control on chromatin and to functionally regulate components of the splicing machinery. In this study we show that selective deletion of PRMT5 in different organs leads to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. At the molecular level, PRMT5 depletion results in reduced methylation of Sm proteins, aberrant constitutive splicing and in the Alternative Splicing (AS) of specific mRNAs. We identify Mdm4 as one of these mRNAs, which due to its weak 5’-Donor site, acts as a sensor of splicing defects and transduces the signal to activate the p53 response, providing a mechanistic explanation of the phenotype observed in PRMT5 conditional knockout mice. Our data demonstrate a key role of PRMT5, together with p53, as guardians of the transcriptome. This will have fundamental implications in our understanding of PRMT5 activity, both in physiological conditions, as well as pathological conditions, including cancer and neurological diseases. Total RNA was extracted from control and Prmt5 depleted Neural Stem/Progenitors Cells (NPCs) and Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts (MEFs). Prmt5 depleted cells were treated with 4-OHT 24 hours before splitting to induce PRMT5 knockout and final libraries were sequenced in triplicates on Illumina HiSeq 2000.

Project description:Humanin (HN) is a 24 amino acid peptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA MT-RNR2 (16S ribosomal RNA [rRNA]). It was previously shown, that HN protects tumor cells from damage during chemotherapy. To get mechanistic insight of HN induced singaling cascades involved in brain tumor growth, we performed a global phosphoproteomic analysis total and phosphorylated proteins on human brain tumor cells after treatment with the peptide Humanin.

Project description:Prostate cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers in men. Prostate tumor staging and disease aggressiveness are evaluated based on the Gleason scoring system, which is further used to direct clinical intervention. The Gleason scoring system provides an estimate of tumor aggressiveness through quantitation of the serum level of prostate specific antigen (PSA) and histologic assessment of Grade Group, determined by the Gleason Grade of the tumor specimen. To improve our understanding of the proteomic characteristics differentiating low- versus high-grade prostate cancer tumors, we performed a deep proteomic characterization of laser microdissected epithelial and stromal subpopulations from surgically resected tissue specimens from patients with Gleason 6 (n=23 specimens from n=15 patients) and Gleason 9 (n=15 specimens from n=15 patients) prostate cancer via quantitative high-resolution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis.

Project description:The endometrial perivascular microenvironment is rich in mesenchymal stem-like cells that express type 1 integral membrane protein Sushi domain containing 2 (SUSD2) but the role of these cells in the decidual transformation of this tissue in pregnancy is unknown. We used an antibody directed against SUSD2 (W5C5) to isolate perivascular (W5C5+) and non-perivascular (W5C5-) fibroblasts from mid-luteal biopsies. We show that SUSD2 expression, and hence the ratio of W5C5+ to W5C5- cells, changes in culture depending on cell-cell contact and activation of the Notch signaling pathway. RNA sequencing revealed that cultures derived from W5C5+ progenitor cells remain phenotypically distinct by the enrichment of novel and established endometrial perivascular signature genes. In an undifferentiated state, W5C5+-derived cells produced lower levels of various chemokines and inflammatory modulators when compared to their W5C5- counterparts. This divergence in secretomes became more pronounced upon decidualization, which transformed perivascular W5C5+ cells into the dominant source of a range of trophic and immunomodulatory cytokines, including leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF). Our findings indicate that the decidual response is spatially organized with differentiating perivascular cells establishing distinct cytokine and chemokine gradients that could direct trophoblast towards maternal vessels and govern local immune responses in pregnancy. Analysis of paired human endometrial stromal cultures, originating from either W5C5+ or W5C5- cells, from four biological replicates - a total of 8 samples - by Illumina RNAseq.

Project description:Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types forming connective tissue and skeleton, and are essential participants in the development of all organs. However, MSC precursors remain largely unknown. In human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) directed to mesendodermal differentiation through coculture with OP9 stromal cells, we identified a population of mesodermal cells by surface expression of apelin receptor (APLNR1). APLNR+ cells were enriched with precursors generating compact spheroid colonies in semisolid suspension culture. Being formed by single cells, these colonies consisted of a uniform population of mesenchymal cells with a transcriptional profile representative of embryonic mesenchyme originating from lateral plate/extraembryonic mesoderm. Mesenchymal colony formation required serum-free medium and FGF2 as a colony-forming factor, could be significantly enhanced by PDGF-BB, but suppressed by VEGF. When transferred to the adherent cultures in serum-free medium with FGF2, individual colonies gave rise to multipotential mesenchymal cell lines with typical phenotype (CD146+CD105+CD73+CD31-CD43-CD45-), differentiation (chondro-, osteo-, and adipogenesis) and proliferation (>80 doublings) potentials. Consistent with lineage-restricted differentiation pattern, neither endothelial nor hematopoietic cells could be produced from adherent mesenchymal cultures, however endothelial cells could be derived from mesenchymal colonies in the early days of colony-forming culture suggesting that mesenchymal cells arose from cells with primary angiogenic potential (mesangioblasts). Together these studies identified mesangioblasts as the earliest clonogenic mesenchymal precursors at this stage of their specification from mesoderm. This set (8 samples) of expression data is a time-course experiment of hESC (H1) differentiated in OP9 coculture for 1-7 days.

This set (11 samples) of expression data is sequential stages of MSC development from hESCs (H1), namely ALPNR+ mesodermal precursors isolated on day 2 and day 3 differentiation, mesangioblast (MB) cores (Day 2 H1-derived cores), hemangioblast (HB) cores (day 3 H1-derived cores), mesangioblast (MB) and hemangioblast (HB) colonies, and colony-derived MSC lines at passage 1 and 5.
