Project description:Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a biphasic clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorder driven by the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-encoded BCR::ABL1 oncogene. The blast phase (BP) in CML progressed from indolent chronic phase (CP), usually has a dismal outcome. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) have identified the pretreatment features linked to therapy resistance and disease progression. We performed the scRNA-seq on bone marrow cells derived from paired CML-CP and CML-BLBC samples, and found that CD24 displayed a striking upregulation in CML-BLBC samples when compared with both the CML-CP and Ph+ B-ALL samples, suggesting the potential as a target in the future therapy of patients with CML-BLBC. Therefore, we profiled the BM samples from patients with CML-CP (n = 16), CML-BLBC (n = 8), and de novo Ph+ B-ALL (n = 13) using bulk RNA sequencing to validate the upregulated expressio of CD24 in patients with CML-BLBC.
Project description:Embryonic genome activation (EGA) marks the onset of embryonic program and enables the transition toward the first lineage specification. However, the molecular features of EGA and the transcription factors (TFs) orchestrating this process remain unclear. Here, by performing single-cell RNA-seq on bovine embryos, we reveal that major EGA is asynchronously initiated among blastomeres at the 8-cell stage. Integrative analyses reveal distinctive protein accumulation compared to transcription and translation activation during bovine EGA. Furthermore, we investigate the role of SP1, a TF activated at the minor EGA stage, with motifs enriched in accessible chromatin during major EGA stage in bovine and human embryos. SP1 deficiency leads to morula arrest in bovine and impairs EGA in human embryos. Multi-omics analysis demonstrates that SP1 promotes early lineage gene expression by modulating nearby chromatin states in bovine and directly targets key EGA genes in human embryos. Together, our study delineates the dynamics of bovine EGA and uncovers the conserved and species-specific roles of SP1 in regulating EGA and early development in mammals.
Project description:BCR-ABL1 lymphoblastic leukaemia is characterized by the deletion of Ikaros. The Philadelphia chromosome, encoding BCR-ABL1, is the defining lesion of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and a subset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cases. To define oncogenic lesions that cooperate with BCR-ABL1 to induce ALL, we performed genome-wide analysis of leukemic samples from 23 CML cases and 304 ALL cases, including 43 BCR-ABL1 B-ALL cases. IKZF1 (encoding the transcription factor Ikaros) was deleted in 83.7% of BCR-ABL1 B-ALL cases, but not in chronic phase CML. Deletion of IKZF1 was also identified as an acquired lesion in lymphoid blast crisis of CML. The IKZF1 deletions resulted in haploinsufficiency, expression of a dominant negative Ikaros isoform or the complete loss of Ikaros expression. Sequencing of IKZF1 deletion breakpoints suggested that aberrant V(D)J recombination is responsible for the deletions. These findings suggest that genetic lesions resulting in the loss of Ikaros function are a key event in the development of BCR-ABL1 ALL. *** Due to privacy concerns, the primary SNP array data is no longer available with unrestricted access.

Project description:We characterize the transcriptome of germline stem cell (GSC)-like cells isolated from bag of marbles (bam) mutant Drosophila ovaries by next generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and compare it to the transcriptome of germline cells isolated from wild type ovaries. We further refine this dataset by utilizing an RNA-immunoprecipitation strategy to identify transcripts bound to the master differentiation factor Bam.
Project description:This is the inaugural dataset for the new GRIP-seq method to map cis-regulatory regions genome-wide. This dataset is for the purple sea urchin embryo, S. purpuratus, at 24 hours post fertilization. There are two experimental samples using an anti-Pol(II) antibody to pull down regulatory region-promoter complexes and one control using IgG alone. Full details of the GRIP-seq methodology are available in the linked manuscript. Bam index (bai) files and tiled data (tdf) files are also available at http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-MTAB-3607/files/
Project description:Embryonic genome activation (EGA), a pivotal transcriptional event during preimplantation development, is accompanied by post-transcriptional regulation of maternal mRNAs. Disentangling the transcriptional output of the newly activated embryonic genome from concomitant post-transcriptional processing is important for decoding EGA dynamics.Here, using optimized low-input SLAM-seq (thiol(SH)-linked alkylation for the metabolic sequencing) in mouse embryos, we delineates the temporal hierarchy of EGA nascent transcription during mouse preimplantation embryogenesis and uncovers a mechanistic link between EGA and the first lineage specification, providing new insights into the regulatory architecture of early mammalian development.
