Project description:Purpose: localized aberrant cell proliferation induced by activation of Yki in ISCs impairs muscle functions. To gain insight into the cross talk between intestine and muscle, we performed a transcriptomic analysis of thoracic muscles in ISC overproliferation flies. Methods: To extract total RNAs for RNA-Seq experiment, we used 10 thoraces dissected out from both esg-Gal4, tub-Gal80ts, UAS-GFP/+ (Con) and esg-Gal4, tub-Gal80ts, UAS-GFP/UAS-Yki-act (Yki) flies incubated for 8 days at 29°C. After assessing RNA quality with Agilent Bioanalyzer, mRNAs were enriched by poly-A pull-down. Then, sequencing libraries constructed with Illumina TruSeq RNA prep kit were sequenced using Illumina HiSeq2000 at the Columbia Genome Center (http://systemsbiology.columbia.edu/genome-center). We multiplexed samples in each lane, which yields targeted number of single-end 100 bp reads for each sample, as a fraction of 180 million reads for the whole lane. Sequence reads were mapped back to the Drosophila genome (flybase genome annotation version r5.51) using Tophat. With the uniquely mapped reads, we quantified gene expression levels using Cufflinks (FPKM values). Next, we performed data normalization on the read counts and applied a negative binomial statistical framework using the Bioconductor package DESeq to quantify differential expression between experimental and control data. Results: Gene list enrichment analysis of the downregulated muscle transcriptome by ISCs Yki overexpressioin revealed a striking enrichment of multiple metabolic processes impinging on carbohydrate metabolism, amino acid metabolism, metabolism of vitamins and cofactors, and metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450. Interestingly, target genes of Foxo, a transcription factor inhibited by insulin/IGF signaling, are enriched in the upregulated muscle transcriptome of ISCs Yki overepxression flies. In particular, induction of InR and Thor, well-characterized targets of Foxo, are validated with qPCR. Conclusions: Our study represents ISCs overproliferation induced by Yki overepxression remotedly regulates muscle function and gene expression probally via modulation of insulin signaling in muscle. Our results show that RNA-seq offers a comprehensive evaluation of signaling network and biological process in organ communication. Thoraces mRNA profiles of both esg-Gal4, tub-Gal80ts, UAS-GFP/+ (Con) and esg-Gal4, tub-Gal80ts, UAS-GFP/UAS-Yki-act (Yki) flies incubated for 8 days at 29°C were generated by deep sequencing, in replicate, using Illumina HiSeq2000.

Project description:Shavenbaby (Svb) transcription factor is involved in the differenciation of epidermal cells and the homeostasis of intestinal stem cells (ISCs). Svb is produced as a long repressor protein called SvbRepressor (SvbREP). In presence of Pri peptides SvbREP is processed into a shorter activator form (SvbACT) through partial proteasomal degradation of the REP domain. In ISCs, Pri triggers SvbREP to ACT maturation, while SvbREP form accumulates in differentiated enterocytes. The absence of Svb promote the apoptosis of the intestinal stem cells. In ISC, the ectopic expression of SvbREP form promote the differenciation and the SvbACT form overexpression promotes hyperplasia. (Al Hayel, et al 2020) Based on these functional analyses, Svb appears to control ISC survival and behavior, balancing proliferation and differentiation through a molecular switch between its 2 antagonistic isoforms. In this study, we determine the Svb target genes in ISCs. To this aim, we analyze the transcriptomes of ISCs upon modulation of Svb function.

Project description:Purpose: Cic is a transcription factor regulating intestinal stem cell (ISC) proliferation as downstream effector of EGFR signaling pathway. ISC-specific mRNA expression profiling and DNA binding mapping using DamID were performed to identify potential target of Cic. Methods: Total RNA was isolated from GFP+ FACS sorted cells and sent for sequencing after amplification. Conclusions: We identified potential target genes of Cic, which is differetially expressed in Cic depleted ISCs and also associated Cic binding peaks.

Project description:We previously demonstrated that SRCAP regulates the self-renewal of ESCs and modulates lymphoid lineage commitment. We further validated that SRCAP was mainly distributed in liver, spleen and intestine by Northern blot. SRCAP was also highly expressed in Lgr5+ ISCs. We then sought to explore the physiological role of SRCAP in the regulation of self-renewal maintenance of ISCs.We identified that Srcap deficiency impairs the self-renewal of ISCs and intestinal epithelial regeneration. Through SRCAP ChIP-sequencing, we sough to identify the key gene regulated by SRCAP in ISC self-renewal.

Project description:Purpose: identify global changes in gene expression in thorax tissues caused by the presence of gut tumors generated by yki expression in intestine stem cells. Note that the thorax of adult flies is composed mainly by muscle tissue but fat body is also present. Changes in gene expression do not exclusively reflect the muscle transcriptome Methods: To extract total RNAs for RNA-Seq experiment, we used 8-10 thoraces dissected out from both esg-Gal4, tub-Gal80ts, UAS-GFP/+ (Con) and esg-Gal4, tub-Gal80ts, UAS-GFP/UAS-yki-act (yki) flies, making sure the gut of these flies was completely removed. Crosses were kept at 18°C to avoid expression of yki during development. Adult males were collected every 24-48 hours and then shifted to 29°C to induce gut yki-tumors. To assess transcriptional changes during the recovery phase, flies were moved to 18°C after a period of 14 days at 29°C in order to shutdown yki expression in the gut and suppress tumor growth. 6-day time points were analyzed during the recovery phase and included T20R, T26R, T32R and T38R. After assessing RNA quality with Agilent Bioanalyzer, rRNA depletion was performed. Then, sequencing libraries constructed with Illumina TruSeq RNA prep kit were sequenced using. We multiplexed samples in each lane, which yields targeted number of single-end 75 bp reads for each sample, as a fraction of 180 million reads for the whole lane. Sequence reads were mapped back to the Drosophila genome (flybase genome annotation version r6.30) using STAR. With the uniquely mapped reads, we quantified gene expression levels using Cufflinks (FPKM values). Next, differentially expressed genes between experimental and control data were analyzed with DESeq2. Results: Gene list enrichment analysis of the downregulated muscle transcriptome by yki overexpression in intestine stem cells revealed a striking enrichment of multiple metabolic processes impinging on carbohydrate metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and energy metabolism. Interestingly, target genes of Foxo, a transcription factor inhibited by insulin/IGF signaling, are enriched in the upregulated thorax transcriptome of ISCs yki overexpression flies and downregulated during recovery (T20R, T26R, T32R and T38R). In particular, induction of InR and Thor, well-characterized targets of Foxo, are validated with qPCR. Also, the transcription factor REPTOR that is modulated by mTOR signaling and regulates metabolism, was found to be upregulated in thoraces of flies with yki-tumors and downregulated during recovery. Conclusions: Our study discovered that the generation of yki-tumors in the gut drives the upregulation of REPTOR in the thorax of adult flies.

We further validated that SRCAP was mainly distributed in liver, spleen and intestine by Northern blot. SRCAP was also highly expressed in Lgr5+ ISCs. We then sought to explore the physiological role of SRCAP in the regulation of self-renewal maintenance of ISCs.We then generated Srcapflox/flox mice through insertion of loxP sequences flanking at the exon5 of Srcap gene locus. We established Srcapflox/flox;Lgr5GFP-CreERT2 mice through crossing Srcapflox/flox mice with Lgr5GFP-CreERT2 mice. With administration of tamoxifen (TAM), Srcap was completely deleted in Lgr5+ ISCs. We identified that Srcap deficiency impairs the self-renewal of ISCs and intestinal epithelial regeneration. Through RNA-sequencing, we sough to identify the key gene regulated by SRCAP in ISC self-renewal.
