Project description:To identify genes regulated by Rx3 during optic vesicle morphogenesis, adult zebrafish carriers of a null rx3 mutation were mated. Before 13 hours post fertilization (hpf), the earliest time point at which optic vesicle evagination phenotypes could be reliably detected, offspring were phenotypically separated into pools comprising of mutants with an absence of optic vesicles or siblings exhibiting a wild-type phenotype. Three replicates of pooled RNA samples from 13 hpf eyeless mutants (rx3-/-) or phenotypically wild-type siblings (rx3+/+ or rx3+/-), and one replicate of 13 hpf wild-type zebrafish larva were collected for whole transcriptome sequencing.

Project description:To investigate its role during zebrafish development, wnt signalling was either activated by the conditional expression of wnt8b or inhibited by the conditional expression of dickkopf-1b (dkk1b) under the control of the hsp70 heat shock promoter. The transgenic constructs contained a gfp reporter fusion to differentiate between transgenic embryos and their wild type siblings. Transgenic embryos and wild type control embryos at the 48 hours post fertilization stage (hpf) were exposed to heat shock (37 C) for 2 hours and were collected 4 hours after heat shock. The transcriptional response to activated or inhibited wnt signalling was profiled using microarrays and compared to wild type expression.

Project description:Whole transcriptome analysis of dechorinated zebrafish embryos after (static?) exposure to one of five smoke dyes from 6 hours post-fertilization (hpf) to 48 hpf. Smoke dyes tested are Disperse Blue 14, Disperse Red 9, Solvent Red 169, Solvent Violet 47, and Solvent Yellow 33. Results provide insight into the molecular mechanisms of immunological response to the dyes.

Project description:The goal of this study is to compare the relative expression genes in hearts of foxc1a-null mutants and WT siblings. 96hpf hearts of foxc1anju18 and WT siblings were dissected for total RNA extraction. RNA profiles were generated using Illumina deep sequencing. Our study represents the reduced expression of several trabeculation related signaling pathways and cell processes.

Project description:The Hematopoietically-expressed homeobox (Hhex) transcription factor is overexpressed in human myeloid leukemias. Conditional knockout models of murine acute myeloid leukemia (AML) indicate that Hhex maintains leukemia stem cell self-renewal by enabling Polycomb-mediated epigenetic repression of the Cdkn2a tumor suppressor locus, encoding p16Ink4a and p19Arf. However, whether Hhex overexpression also affects hematopoietic differentiation is unknown. To study this, we retrovirally overexpressed Hhex in hematopoietic progenitors. This enabled serial replating of myeloid progenitors, leading to the rapid establishment of IL-3-dependent promyelocytic cell lines. Use of a Hhex-ERT2 fusion protein demonstrated that continuous nuclear Hhex is required for transformation, and structure function analysis demonstrated a requirement of the DNA binding and N-terminal repressive domains of Hhex for promyelocytic transformation. This included the N-terminal Pml interaction domain, although deletion of Pml failed to prevent Hhex-induced promyelocyte transformation, implying other critical partners. Furthermore, deletion of p16Ink4a or p19Arf did not promote promyelocyte transformation, indicating that repression of distinct Hhex target genes is required for this process. Indeed, transcriptome analysis showed that Hhex overexpression resulted in repression of several myeloid developmental genes. To test potential for Hhex overexpression to contribute to leukemic transformation, Hhex-transformed promyelocyte lines were rendered growth factor-independent using a constitutively active IL-3 receptor common b subunit (bcV449E). The resultant cell lines resulted in a rapid promyelocytic leukemia in vivo. Thus Hhex overexpression can contribute to myeloid leukemia via multiple mechanisms including differentiation blockade and enabling epigenetic repression of the Cdkn2a locus.

Project description:Background & Aims: Perturbations in pancreatic ductal bicarbonate secretion often result in chronic pancreatitis. Although the physiological mechanism of ductal secretion is known, its transcriptional control is not well characterized. Here, we investigate the role of the transcription factor Hematopoietically-expressed homeobox protein (Hhex) in pancreatic secretion and pancreatitis. Methods: We derived mice with pancreas-specific, Cre-mediated Hhex gene ablation to determine the requirement of Hhex in the pancreatic duct in early life and in adult stages. Histological and immunostaining analyses were used to detect the presence of pathology. Pancreatic primary ductal cells (PDCs) were isolated to discover differentially expressed transcripts upon acute Hhex ablation. Results: Hhex protein was detected throughout the embryonic and adult ductal trees. Ablation of Hhex in pancreatic progenitors resulted in postnatal ductal ectasia associated with acinar-to-ductal metaplasia, a progressive phenotype that ultimately resulted in chronic pancreatitis. Hhex ablation in adult mice, however, did not cause any detectable pathology. Ductal ectasia did not result from perturbations in primary cilia, but was consistent with the effects of primary ductal hypertension. RNA-seq analysis of Hhex-ablated PDCs indicated the G-protein coupled receptor Natriuretic peptide receptor 3, implicated in paracrine signaling, was upregulated 4.70-fold. Conclusions: Although Hhex is dispensable for adult pancreatic function, ablation of Hhex in pancreatic progenitors results in profound pancreatitis that is consistent with primary ductal hypertension. Our data highlight the critical role of paracrine signaling in maintaining ductal homeostasis, especially in early life, and support ductal hypersecretion as a novel etiology of pediatric chronic pancreatitis. Pancreatic primary ductal cells (PDCs) were isolated from uninduced adult HhexL/L;Sox9CreERT2 (n=2) and littermate control HhexL/L (n=2) mice. PDCs were treated with 500nM 4-hydroxytamoxifen in vitro for 4 days, and then RNA was collected for transcriptome analysis.

Project description:Hhex encodes a homeobox transcriptional regulator that plays a key role in embryonic development and hematopoiesis. Hhex is highly expressed in NK cells and germline deletion of Hhex results in significant defects in lymphoid development, including NK cells. However, whether Hhex is intrinsically required throughout NK cell development or for NK cell function remains unknown. To investigate this, we generated mice that specifically lack Hhex in NK cells. Hhex was intrinsically required for NK cell homeostasis, while NK cell differentiation, IL-15 responsiveness and cytotoxic function were largely normal in the absence of Hhex. Unexpectedly, increased IL-15 availability failed to rescue Hhex-deficient NK cell homeostasis, suggesting that Hhex regulates developmental pathways extrinsic to those dependent on IL-15. Gene expression and functional genetic approaches revealed that Hhex promoted NK cell survival by repressing BIM expression, a key apoptotic mediator in NK cells. This study identifies Hhex as a novel transcription factor essential for NK cell biology.
