Project description:The CRISPR-Cas9 system enables efficient sequence-specific mutagenesis for creating germline mutants of model organisms. Key constraints in vivo remain the expression and delivery of active Cas9-guideRNA ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) with minimal toxicity, variable mutagenesis efficiencies depending on targeting sequence, and high mutation mosaicism. Here, we established in vitro-assembled, fluorescent Cas9-sgRNA RNPs in stabilizing salt solution to achieve maximal mutagenesis efficiency in zebrafish embryos. Sequence analysis of targeted loci in individual embryos reveals highly efficient bi-allelic mutagenesis that reaches saturation at several tested gene loci. Such virtually complete mutagenesis reveals preliminary loss-of-function phenotypes for candidate genes in somatic mutant embryos for subsequent generation of stable germline mutants. We further show efficient targeting of functional non-coding elements in gene-regulatory regions using saturating mutagenesis towards uncovering functional control elements in transgenic reporters and endogenous genes. Our results suggest that in vitro assembled, fluorescent Cas9-sgRNA RNPs provide a rapid reverse-genetics tool for direct and scalable loss-of-function studies beyond zebrafish applications.

Project description:Measles virus infects serum activated airway epithelial cells and many adenocarcinoma cell lines. A microarray analysis was performed on virus permissive versus non-permissive cells. Membrane protein genes that were upregulated in permissive cells were tested as receptor/entry factors. Membrane protein genes that were upregulated in smooth airway epithelial cells (SAEC) following growth in 10% fetal calf serum that made the cell line permissive to measles virus were identified. Membrane protein genes that were upregulated in adenocarcinoma cells that were permissive to wild type measles virus infection were identified.

[SAEC]: Airway cells (SAEC) grown in serum free media (SAGM) were purchaced from Lonza. Half the cells were cultured in SAGM, the other half were transferred into Dulbecco's 10% fetal calf serum for 24 hrs. RNA was harvested from the cells by the Qiagen RNAeasy [Adenocarcinoma cells]: MCF7, MDA-MB-468, T47D, NCI-H358, NCI-H125, MGH24 cells were permissive and A549 and MDA-MB-231 cells were non-permissive.

Project description:Background
Cancer is one of the leading causes for the morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although substantial studies have been conducted theoretically and experimentally in recent years, it is still a challenge to explore the mechanisms of cancer initiation and progression. The investigation for these problems is very important for the diagnosis of cancer diseases and development of treatment schemes.
Results
To accurately describe the process of cancer initiation, we propose a new concept of gene initial mutation rate based on our recently designed mathematical model using the non-constant mutation rate. Unlike the widely-used average gene mutation rate that depends on the number of mutations, the gene initial mutation rate can be used to describe the initiation process of a single patient. In addition, we propose the instantaneous tumour doubling time that is a continuous function of time based on the non-constant mutation rate. Our proposed concepts are supported by the clinic data of seven patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. The regression results suggest that, compared with the average mutation rate, the estimated initial mutation rate has a larger value of correlation coefficient with the patient survival time. We also provide the estimated tumour size of these seven patients over time.
Conclusions
The proposed concepts can be used to describe the cancer initiation and progression for different patients more accurately. Since a quantitative understanding of cancer progression is important for clinical treatment, our proposed model and calculated results may provide insights into the development of treatment schemes and also have other clinic implications.
