Project description:Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) is a member of Coronaviridae family. Our previous research showed that TGEV infection could induce mitochondrial dysfunction and up-regulat miR-222 level. Therefore, we presumed that miR-222 might be implicated in regulating mitochondrial dysfunction induced by TGEV infection. To verify the hypothesis, the effect of miR-222 on mitochondrial dysfunction was detected and showed that miR-222 attenuated TGEV-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. To investigate the underlying molecular mechanism of miR-222 in TGEV-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, a quantitative proteomic analysis of PK-15 cells that were transfected with miR-222 mimics and infected with TGEV was performed. In total, 4151 proteins were quantified and 100 differentially expressed proteins were obtained (57 up-regulated, 43 down-regulated), among which thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) and cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) were down-regulated. THBS1 was identified as the target of miR-222. Knockdown of THBS1 and CD47 increased mitochondrial Ca2+ level and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) level. Together, our data establish a significant role of miR-222 in regulating mitochondrial dysfunction in response to TGEV infection.

Project description:we performed lentiviral CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) by recruiting dCas9 fused with the KRAB domain to the CSMD1 enhancer (fam3) in the neuronal precursor cell line – Lund human mesencephalic (LUHMES). Given that the expression of CSMD1 was not detectable in LUHMES cells we differentiated these cells into neurons. Differentiated neurons with CRISPRi of CSMD1 enhancer showed significantly higher expression of CSMD1 than control.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are aberrant expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue and play a central role in diverse biological processes. We conducted a genome-wide miRNAs screening in 10 pairs of HCC tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues to test the hypothesis that dysregulation of miRNAs in HCC tumor tissue are partially due to aberrant methylation in relevant miRNAs host genes. Taqman low density arrays were used to examine miRNA profiles in paired HCC tissues, and quantitative RT-PCR was used to validate candidate miRNAs for both discovery and validation sets. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 10 HCC tumor tissues and 10 adjacent non-tumor tissues in Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC), which is approved by the Institutional Review Board.

Project description:T cell receptor (TCR) αβ+ CD4- CD8- double negative T cells represent a rare T cell subset implicated in the pathogenesis of several autoimmune diseases. In this study, we investigated the DNA methylation signature of double negative T cells to gain insight into the epigenetic architecture and transcriptional capacity of peripheral blood primary human double negative T cells compared to autologous CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. We identified 2,984 CG sites across the genome with unique loss of DNA methylation in double negative T cells, and showed significant reduction in mRNA expression of DNA methyltransferases DNMT1, DNMT3A, and DNMT3B. DNA methylation was increased in CD8A/CD8B and CD4 consistent with epigenetic repression of both the CD8 and CD4 genetic loci in double negative T cells. Curiously, we show consistent increase in non-CG methylation in double negative T cells, a finding suggestive of pluripotency and previously only known to occur in embryonic stem cells and developing brain tissue. Network analyses of genes hypomethylated in double negative compared to CD4+ and CD8+ T cells indicate a strong relationship between double negative T cells and functions related to cell-cell interaction, cell adhesion, and cell activation pathways. Our data also suggest a robust pro-inflammatory epigenetic signature in double negative T cells, consistent with a transcriptional permissiveness to produce key inflammatory cytokines including IFNγ, IL-17F, IL-12B, IL-5, IL-18, TNFSF11 (RANKL), and TNFSF13B (BLYS or BAFF). These findings highlight an epigenetic basis for a role of double negative T cells in autoimmunity and extend the potential pathogenic transcriptional capacity of this unique T cell subset. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from fresh blood samples of 7 unrelated healthy women (age range 25-60) (Supplementary Table 1) by Ficoll-gradient centrifugation (GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences AB, Uppsala, Sweden). Subsequently, T cells were negatively-selected using the Human Pan T Cell Isolation II kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Cambridge, MA). T cells were then analyzed and sorted into TCRαβ+ CD4+ T cells, TCRαβ+ CD8+ T cells, and TCRαβ+ DN T cell subsets by flow cytometry. DNA was isolated from CD4+, CD8+, and DN T cell subsets using the DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA), then bisulfite-converted using the EZ DNA Methylation kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA) for DNA methylation studies.

Project description:To date there are very few tools to reverse the induced dedifferentiation program in CRPC and to improve the response to the androgen deprivation therapy. Here we report that MAT2A is an important oncogenic cofactor of ERG/EZH2 transcriptional reprogramming impacting significantly the androgenic pathway. Using RNA sequencing coupled with ATAC, here we reveal an important link between ERG/MAT2A and EZH2 that impact on AR signaling pathway. This aberrant epigenetic program can be reversed by MAT2A inhibition which establish a near physiologic AR transcriptional program. Targeting MAT2A alone or in combination with EZH2 inhibitors reverse stemness in multiple models including prostatospheres from human PDX and GEM models of aggressive prostate cancer. Targeting MAT2A enhance the sensitivity to the androgenic blockade by Enzalutamide and to EZH2 inhibitors

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are abundant in the circulation and play a central role in diverse biological processes; they may be useful for early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We conducted a two-phase, case-control study (20 pairs for the discovery set and 49 pairs for the validation set) to test the hypothesis that genome-wide dysregulation of circulating miRNAs differentiate HCC cases from controls. Taqman low density arrays were used to examine genome-wide miRNA expression for the discovery set, and quantitative RT-PCR was used to validate candidate miRNAs for both discovery and validation sets. Sixty-six miRNAs were found to be significantly over-expressed in plasma of HCC cases compared to controls after adjusting for false discovery rate (p<0.05). A volcano plot indicated that 7 miRNAs had greater than 2-fold case-control differences with p<0.01. Four significant miRNAs (miR-150, miR-30c, miR-483-5p and miR-520b) detectable in all samples with varied expression levels were further validated in a validation set. MiR-483-5p was statistically significantly over-expressed in HCC cases compared with controls (3.20 vs. 0.82, p<0.0001). HCC risk factors and clinic-pathological characteristics did not influence miR-483-5p expression. The combination of plasma miR-483-5p level and HCV status can significantly differentiate HCC cases from controls with an AUC of 0.908 (p<0.0001). The sensitivity and specificity were, respectively, 75.5% and 89.8%. These preliminary results suggest the importance of dysregulated circulating miR-483-5p as a potential HCC biomarker. Confirmation of aberrant expression of miR-483-5p in a large prospective HCC study will provide support for its application to HCC detection. A hospital-based HCC case-control study including 20 HCC patients and 20 controls is conducted in Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC), which is approved by the Institutional Review Board. Cases were newly diagnosed HCC patients who were treated in the Hepatobiliary Oncology Clinics, CUMC, and examined pathologically. Controls were recruited from volunteers through the Research Recruitment and Minority Outreach (RRMO) core of Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center (HICCC). Flyers were placed at strategic locations around CUMC where hospital visitors and employees frequent or were handed out at inreach events at the hospital or at outreach events in the community. Interested participants were directed to contact the trained recruitment staff from the RRMO and given further information about participation. Interested participants were excluded from the control group if diagnosed for any kind of cancer or liver disease. Eligible controls were asked to fill out the same demographic and epidemiological questionnaire as HCC cases. In the current study, controls were matched with HCC cases on age (M-BM-15 yrs), gender (male/female) and ethnicities (Caucasian/Hispanic/African-American/Asian).

Project description:A major virulence factor in S. enterica is the pathogenicity island Spi2. The goal of the experiment was to determine the impact of the NRAMP-1 (natural resistance-associated macrophage protein-1) on expression of Spi2 in S. enterica wild type (WT) and triple mutant strain (TMS) with deletions in SPI-1 TTSS, SPI-2 TTSS, flagella. The stain 14028 was used for the experiment. Cells were grown in a NRAMP-1 wildtype (plus) or deleted (minus) macrophage background. Total RNA was extracted and processed by qRT-PCR. Two strains ( WT and TMS) grown under 2 conditions (NRAMP-1 wildtype (plus) or NRAMP-1 deleted (minus)) - total 4 samples were analyzed in the study. All PCRs were done in duplicates, located on the same PCR plate. For each duplicate the mean value was calculated and used as a data point for further normalization. We averaged the Cp values for all the data points in a sample and then subtracted this sample average Cp from all the data points of the sample. Only 192 primer pairs from 288 on the platform GPL11111 were used.
