Project description:In this study, we generated a novel nuclear-localized red fluorescence knock-in reporter allele (Ins2.Apple) for mouse pancreatic beta-cells. Beta-cells were isolated by FACS from 60-day-old mice, segregated by sex, and RNA-sequencing was performed to assess sex-specific differences in beta-cell gene expression profiles. We also isolated beta-cells (by FACS) from MIP-GFP mice at 60 days of age. RNA-sequencing was performed, and was compared to that of Ins2.Apple beta cells, to assess gene expression changes brought on by the presence of the MIP-GFP transgene.

Project description:To determine the role of Ascl1 in beta cell development, function, and metabolic stress response, we generated beta cell specific Ascl1 knockout mice and assessed their glucose homeostasis, islet morphology, and gene expression after feeding a normal diet, a high fat diet (HFD) for 12 weeks, or on a background of Abcc8 (KATP channel subunit) knockout mice. For the RNA-seq analysis, islets from male Ascl1betaKO and littermate control mice (N = 4 for each genotype and condition) were collected from three different conditions: 1) normal diet fed 2) HFD fed for 12 weeks, 3) on a background of homozygous Abcc8 allele.

Project description:Aging at the cellular level is driven by changes in gene activity and epigenetic state that are only partially understood. We performed a comprehensive epigenomic analysis of the pancreatic ? cell, key player in glucose homeostasis and diabetes, in adolescent and very old mice. Globally, we observe a general methylation drift resulting in an overall more leveled methylome, suggesting that the maintenance of highly differential methylation patterns becomes compromised with advanced age. Importantly, we discover targeted changes in the methylation status of ? cell proliferation and function genes that go against the global methylation drift, are specific to ? cells, and correlate with repression of the proliferation program and activation of metabolic regulators. These targeted alterations frequently occur at distal cis-regulator elements, and are associated with specific chromatin marks and transcription factor occupancy in young ? cells. Strikingly, we find the insulin secretory response to glucose much improved in mature ? cells in mice, as predicted by the changes in methylome and transcriptome and in contrast to the decline in function observed in aged human ? cells. Thus, aging of terminally differentiated cells in mammals is not always coupled to functional decline. RNA-seq was done on 3 biological replicas from old and three from young beta cells. each sample originated from a pool of 5-10 mic.e H3K27me3 ChIP-seq was done with two replicas for old mice (pool of 4-7 mice) and the rest of the ChIPseq (H3K4me1, H3K27ac and young H3K27me3) was sone with one sample (pool of few mice). BIS-seq was done on one sample from a pool of 10 young mice and one sample of a pool of old mice (18-22 months old)

Project description:To model the potential diabetogenic effects of higher level of HSD11B1 in b-cells of the pancreas in vivo, we created a transgenic model overexpressing HSD11B1 under the mouse insulin I promoter (MIP-HSD1) in diabetes-prone C57Bl/KsJ mice. KsJ wild type and MIP-HSD1 heterozygous mice have been high fat fed for 12 weeks. Pancreata have been perfused with collagenase and islets isolated by hand picking. Isolated islets (around 500) coming from at least 3 mice (around 200/mice) have been directly lysed in Trizol. Total RNA have been extracted by Trizol plus RNA Purification Kit (invitrogen). Four biological replicates per group: Wild type KsJ mice on High Fat diet (KsJ1, KsJ2, KsJ3, KsJ4) and MIP-HSD1 transgenic mice on High Fat diet (MIP1, MIP2, MIP3, MIP4) were used to prepare RNA for microarray analysis.

Project description:Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta protects against obesity by reducing dyslipidemia and insulin resistance via effects in various organs, including muscle, adipose tissue, liver, and heart. However, nothing is known about the function of PPAR-beta in pancreas, a prime organ in the control of glucose metabolism. To gain insight into so far hypothetical functions of this PPAR isotype in insulin production, we specifically ablated Ppar-beta in pancreas. The mutated mice developed a chronic hyperinsulinemia, due to an increase in both beta-cell mass and insulin secretion. Gene expression profiling indicated a broad repressive function of PPAR-beta impacting the vesicular compartment, actin cytoskeleton, and metabolism of glucose and fatty acids. Analyses of insulin release from the islets revealed an increased second-phase glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Higher levels of PKD, PKC-delta and diacyglycerol in mutated animals lead to an enhanced formation of trans-Golgi network (TGN)-to-plasma-membrane transport carriers in concert with F-actin disassembly, which resulted in increased insulin secretion and its associated systemic effects. Taken together, these results provide evidence for PPAR-beta playing a repressive role on beta-cell growth and insulin exocytosis, which shed new light on its anti-obesity action. Pancreas-specific knock-out animals were generated by breeding mice harbouring a floxed Ppar-beta (PPARbetafl/fl) to mice expressing the Cre transgene under the control of the Pdx1 promoter (Pdx1Cre). Islets from 3 different animals from the knock-out group Pdx1Cre;PPARbetafl/fl and the control littermates group PPARbetafl/fl were compared.

Project description:The interior of the neuronal cell nucleus is a highly organized 3-dimensional (3D) structure in which regions of the genome that are millions of bases apart participate in specialized sub-structures with dedicated functions. To investigate neuronal chromatin organization and dynamics in vivo, we generated bitransgenic mice that express histone GFP-tagged H2B in principal neurons of the forebrain. Surprisingly, the expression of this chimeric histone in mature neurons causes chromocenter declustering and disrupts the association of heterochromatin with the nuclear lamina. The loss of these structures does not affect neuronal viability but is associated with specific transcriptional and behavioral deficits related to serotonergic dysfunction. Overall, our results demonstrate that the 3D-organization of chromatin in the neuronal nucleus supports an additional level of epigenetic regulation of gene expression that critically influences neuronal function and indicate that some loci associated with neuropsychiatric disorders may be particularly sensitive to changes in chromatin architecture. Genome-wide profiling by high throughput sequencing of H3K27me3 in the adult hippocampus of CaMKII-tTA/tetO-H2BGFP (H2BGFP) and their wild-type littermates mice (WT). Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was carried out using pooled hippocampal tissue from 3 mice (one hippocampus per mouse). One DNA library was constructed per genotype. Each DNA library was prepared from pooled immunoprecipitated DNA from 4 independent ChIP assays. In total, tissue from 12 different mice was used to prepare each DNA library. 60% of a lane was used to perform single end (1x50bp) multiplex sequencing in HiSeq 2500 apparatus (Illumina). Each library, was sequenced in duplicate (in two independent sequencing runs. Technical replicates).

Project description:Islet β-cells from newborn mammals need a maturation process to become mature functional beta cells. The detailed molecular mechanisms were not completely understood. This study was designed to reveal the dynamic gene expression changes during pancreatic beta-cell maturation in postnatal mice. We also want to understand how genetic mutations that impair beta-cell function change the genetic networks involved in the beta-cell maturation process. For these aims, pancreatic beta cells were isolated at P1 islets based on the expression of a MipeGFP transgene in a genetic background with pancreatic specific inactivation of Myt1, Myt1L, and St18 (denoted as MytDelpanc; MipeGFP).

Project description:Insulin-producing beta cells become dedifferentiated during diabetes progression. An impaired ability to select substrates for oxidative phosphorylation, or metabolic inflexibility, sets the stage for progression from beta cell dysfunction to beta cell dedifferentiation. In this study, we sought to isolate and functionally characterize failing beta cells, as a preliminary step to identify pathways to reverse dedifferentiation. Using various experimental models of diabetes, we found a striking enrichment in the expression of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 isoform A3 (ALDH+) as beta cells become dedifferentiated. Flow-sorted ALDH+ islet cells demonstrate impaired glucose-induced insulin secretion, are depleted of Foxo1 and MafA, and include a Neurogenin3-positive subset. RNA sequencing analysis demonstrates that ALDH+ cells are characterized by: (i) impaired oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial complex I, IV, and V; (ii) activated RICTOR; and (iii) progenitor cell markers. We propose that impaired mitochondrial function marks the progression from metabolic inflexibility to dedifferentiation in the natural history of beta cell failure. RNA-Sequencing analysis of 2 different cell types in 2 different genotype categories.
