Overexpression of c-Jun in mouse Schwann cells of uninjured nerves

ABSTRACT: Two mouse lines, OE/+ and OE/OE were generated expressing graded elevation (6 fold and 28 fold, respectively) of c-Jun protein selectively in Schwann cells. The effects of this on global gene expression and cellular structure in uninjured nerves was analysed during development and in the adult. Changes in gene expression and cellular arrangements were mild but detectable in c-Jun OE/+ mice, while nerves in c-Jun OE/OE mice showed obvious de-myelination and gene expression changes, including up- and down-regulation of genes previously shown to be controlled by c-Jun in Schwann cells.

Schwann cell c-Jun is implicated in adaptive and maladaptive functions in peripheral nerves. In injured nerves, this transcription factor promotes the repair Schwann cell phenotype and regeneration and promotes Schwann-cell-mediated neurotrophic support in models of peripheral neuropathies. However, c-Jun is associated with tumor formation in some systems, potentially suppresses myelin genes, and has been implicated in demyelinating neuropathies. To clarify these issues and to determine how c-Ju ...[more]

Failures of nerve regeneration caused by aging or chronic denervation are rescued by restoring Schwann cell c-Jun

Project description:After nerve injury, myelin and Remak Schwann cells reprogram to repair cells specialized for regeneration. Normally providing strong regenerative support, these cells fail in aging animals, and during the chronic denervation that results from slow axon growth. This impairs axonal regeneration and causes a significant clinical problem. We find that aging and chronically denervated repair cells express reduced c-Jun protein and the regenerative support provided by these cells is also reduced. In both cases, genetically restoring Schwann cell c-Jun levels restores regeneration to that in controls. We identify potential gene candidates mediating this effect and implicate Shh in the control of Schwann cell c-Jun levels. These experiments reveal that a common mechanism, reduced c-Jun in repair cells, underlies two major reasons for regeneration failure in the PNS. They underscore the central importance of Schwann cell c-Jun as a regulator of nerve repair, and point to molecular pathways that can be manipulated for improving the clinical outcome of nerve injuries.

Transgenic mice overexpressing Neuregulin-1 model neurofibroma-malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor progression and implicate specific chromosomal copy number variations in tumorigenesis.

Project description:Patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) develop benign plexiform neurofibromas that frequently progress to become malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs). A genetically engineered mouse model that accurately models plexiform neurofibroma-MPNST progression would facilitate the identification of somatic mutations driving this process. We have previously reported that transgenic mice overexpressing the growth factor neuregulin-1 in Schwann cells (P0-GGF?3 mice) develop MPNSTs. To determine whether P0-GGF?3 mice accurately model neurofibroma-MPNST progression, cohorts of these animals were followed to death and necropsied. 94% of the mice developed multiple neurofibromas, with 70% carrying smaller numbers of MPNSTs; nascent MPNSTs were identified within neurofibromas, suggesting that these sarcomas arise from neurofibromas. Although neurofibromin expression was maintained, P0-GGF?3 MPNSTs, like human NF1-associated MPNSTs, demonstrated Ras hyperactivation. P0-GGF?3 MPNSTs also showed abnormalities in the p16INK4A-cyclin D/CDK4-Rb and p19ARF-Mdm-p53 pathways analogous to their human counterparts. Array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) demonstrated reproducible chromosomal alterations in P0-GGF?3 MPNST cells (including universal chromosome 11 gains) and focal gains and losses affecting 39 genes previously implicated in neoplasia (e.g., Pten, Tpd52, Myc , Gli1, Xiap, Bbc3/PUMA). Array CGH also identified recurrent focal copy number variations affecting genes not previously linked to neurofibroma or MPNST pathogenesis. We conclude that P0-GGF?3 mice represent a robust model of neurofibroma-MPNST progression that can be used to identify novel genes driving neurofibroma and MPNST pathogenesis.

NANOG-OCT4-SOX2 Regulatory Module in Human Embryonic Stem Cells (dataset 4)

Project description:The transcription factors Nanog, Oct4 and Sox2 are the master regulators of pluripotency in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), however, their functions in human ESCs (hESCs) have not been rigorously defined. Here we show that the requirements for NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2 in hESCs differ from those in mESCs. Both NANOG and OCT4 are required for self-renewal and repress differentiation. OCT4 controls both extraembryonic and epiblast-derived cell fates in a BMP4-dependent manner. OCT4-depleted hESCs commit to trophectoderm and primitive endoderm in the presence of BMP4, but undergo neuroectoderm differentiation in the absence of BMP4. NANOG represses neuroectoderm and neural crest commitment, but has little or no effect on the other lineages. We find that SOX2 is not required for self-renewal because it is redundant with SOX3, which is induced in SOX2-depleted hESCs. Simultaneous depletion of both SOX2 and SOX3 induces differentiation into the primitive streak. Unexpectedly, we identify significant variability in the usage of pluripotency factors by individual hESC lines, suggesting that the pluripotency network is remodelled to support a continuum of developmental states. Our study revises the general view of how NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2 orchestrate self-renewal in hESCs. Total RNA obtained from EF1a-control-, OE-NANOG-, OE-OCT4- or OE-SOX2-transduced hESCs.

Chip-chip from mouse olfactory epithelium (OE) and liver with antibodies against H3K9me3 and H4K20me3

Project description:The Olfactory Receptor (OR) genes are specifically expressed in the MOE in a monogenic and monoallelic fashion. Only 1 out of 2800 alleles is expressed in each olfactory sensory neuron in mice. ChIP-chip from mouse olfactory epithelium (OE) and liver for H3K9me3 and H4K20me3 revealed that the ORs are highly enriched for these modifications in OE but not in liver. 24 samples were analyzed (20 from OE and 4 from liver) with matching inputs as controls. For the OE samples, there were 2-3 replicates for each array.

RNA-seq of soybean hairy roots in which GmMYB176 transcription factor was silenced or overexpressed

Project description:GmMYB176, an R1 MYB transcription factor regulates isoflavonoid biosynthesis in soybean. In the current experiment, GmMYB176 was silenced (GmMYB176-Si) or overexpressed (GmMYB176-OE) in soybean hairy roots and their effect on transcriptome was studied. RNA-Seq analyses of GmMYB176-Si and GmMYB176-OE along with control non-transformed soybean hairy roots revealed that alteration of gene expression of GmMYB176 affects gene regulation of hundreds of genes in soybean.

Jun-mediated changes in cell adhesion contribute to embryonic stem cell exit from ground state pluripotency

Project description:Embryonic stem cells (ESC) are able to give rise to any somatic cell type. A lot is known about how ESC pluripotency is maintained, but comparatively less is known about how differentiation is promoted. Cell fate decisions are regulated by interactions between signalling and transcriptional networks. Recent studies have shown that the overexpression or downregulation of the transcription factor Jun can affect the ESC fate. Here we have focussed on the role of the Jun in the exit of mouse ESCs from ground state pluripotency and the onset of early differentiation. Transcriptomic analysis of differentiating ESCs reveals that Jun is required to upregulate a programme of genes associated with cell adhesion as ESCs exit the pluripotent ground state.

Elevated expression of the H3K36me2 demethylase Kdm8/Jmjd5, a direct Miz1 target gene causes prolonged postnatal Schwann cell proliferation in the murine Miz1∆POZ neuropathy

Project description:The deletion of the POZ domain of the transcription factor Miz1 leads to a late onset neuropathy with subsequent spontaneous regeneration in mice. In this study, we aim to identify genes that are involved in the development of this neuropathy. We traced first gene regulatory changes in sciatic nerve tissue from Miz1∆POZ mice to 30 days after birth. At this time point, we harvested samples of sciatic nerve tissue from several mice and performed RNAseq analysis to identify differentially expressed genes between Miz1∆POZ and wild type mice.
