Project description:Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC), is a well-known, ubiquitous estrogenic chemical. To investigate the effects of fetal exposure to low-dose BPA on the development of the prostate, we first examined the alterations of in situ sex steroid hormonal environment in the mouse urogenital sinus (UGS). Next, to investigate the BPA-specific gene alterations related to increases of the E2 levels and aromatase activity, we performed comprehensive gene expression analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip in the BPA-treated or DES-treated male UGS at embryonic day 17th and postnatal day 1st.

Project description:Cancer cells differentiate along specific lineages that largely determine their clinical and biologic behavior. Distinct cancer phenotypes from different cells and organs likely result from unique gene expression repertoires established during lineage commitment in the embryo and maintained after malignant transformation. We used comprehensive gene expression analysis to examine this concept in the prostate, an organ with a readily manipulable developmental program and a high propensity for cancer. We focused on gene expression changes in the murine prostate rudiment (Urogenital Sinus, UGS) at three time points during the first 48 hours of exposure to androgen, which initiates proliferation and invasion of prostate epithelial buds into surrounding mesenchyme. Keywords: time course, prostate gland development Differential gene expression was assessed by direct comparisons of labeled moieties, using dye-swaps as technical replicates. Hybridizations were performed on the Agilent (Santa Clara, CA) Whole Mouse Genome DNA microarray (mgug4122a). Three different time points were analyzed using RNA pooled from different embryos: • UGS of female embryos upon 6 hours of androgen treatment compared to UGS of vehicletreated mice (H6 comparison, 8 different slides); • UGS of female embryos upon 12 hours of androgen treatment compared to UGS of vehicletreated mice (H12 comparison, 6 different slides); • UGS of male embryos compared to UGS of female embryos (MvsF comparison, 10 different slides). Pools from male tissues were hybridized against pools from female litter-mates;

Next, to investigate the BPA-specific gene alterations related to increases of the E2 levels and aromatase activity, we performed comprehensive gene expression analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip in the BPA-treated or DES-treated male UGS at embryonic day 17th and postnatal day 1st. Pregnant female C57BL/6 mice were exposed to BPA (20 μg/kg/day) or synthetic estrogen Diethylstilbestrol (DES: 0.2 μg/kg/day), which were dissolved in tocopherol-stripped corn oil, on embryonic day 13 (E13) to E16. Between E17 and postnatal day 1 (P1), all animals were terminated by an overdose of isoflurane followed by cervical dislocation. Fetuses were collected at E17, E18, P0, and P1. The bladder and urethra were removed and dissected to isolate UGS and collected in RNA later. To isolate pure UGS, other tissues such as the bladder, urethra, Wolffian duct (WD), seminal vesicle (SV), and Mullerian duct (MD) were removed from both the male and female urogenital tracts. The histopathology of the mouse UGS was then examined by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Total RNA was extracted using the Qiagen mini RNA Easy kit. Each RNAs were linearly amplified and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip.

Project description:Studies centered at the intersection of embryogenesis and carcinogenesis have identified striking parallels involving signaling pathways that modulate both developmental and neoplastic processes. In the prostate, reciprocal interactions between epithelium and stroma are known to influence neoplasia and also exert morphogenic effects via the urogenital sinus mesenchyme. In this study, we sought to determine molecular relationships between aspects of normal prostate development and prostate carcinogenesis. We first characterized the gene expression program associated with key points of murine prostate organogenesis spanning the initial in utero induction of prostate budding through maturity. We identified a highly reproducible temporal program of gene expression that partitioned according to the broad developmental stages of prostate induction, branching morphogenesis, and secretory differentiation. Comparisons of gene expression profiles of murine prostate cancers arising in the context of genetically engineered alterations in the Pten tumor suppressor and Myc oncogene identified significant associations between the profile of branching morphogenesis and both cancer models. Further, the expression of genes comprising the branching morphogenesis program, such as PRDX4, SLC43A1, and DNMT3A, was significantly altered in human neoplastic prostate epithelium. These results indicate that components of normal developmental processes are active in prostate neoplasia and provide further rationale for exploiting molecular features of organogenesis to understand cancer phenotypes. Whole male UGS (E14.5, E15.5, E16.5, and E17.5) or separated prostate lobes (P7, P30, and DP90) were dissected from C57BL6/J mice and snap frozen in liquid nitrogen. For each biological replication, we pooled 3 to 10 mice representing one or two litters. RNA from pools of UGS or specific prostate lobes (vp, ap, and dlp) was prepared using the Qiagen RNeasy Mini kit. We included an on-column DNaseI treatment to remove contaminating DNA. Before RNA amplification, we combined equal quantities of RNA from vp, ap, and dlp for the postnatal prostate samples. We amplified 1 ug of total RNA from each sample through one round using the Arcturus RiboAmp kit. For the E14.5 UGS reference sample, a second round of amplification was done to provide enough RNA for all microarrays. Each developmental sample was hybridized against the E14.5 UGS reference sample with a dye swap, for a total of 42 arrays. Warning: the normalized data for this study which was made public on December 1, 2009, was swapped for some samples. All normalized data has now been corrected as of February 25, 2010. Raw data was not affected.

Project description:The goal of the study was to sequence mRNA expression from sorted medullary thymic epithelial cell (mTEC) subsets in inducible Aire-CreERT2.R26-Stopfl-tdTomato lineage tracing mice after a pulse chase. Four cell subsets were sorted 7 days after a single 2mg pulse of tamoxifen administered by oral gavage. 4 biological replicates (1,2,3,4) were collected derived from 12 pooled thymi per replicate. From the DAPI-;CD45-;EpCAM+ TEC pool, cells were sorted as: pre-Aire (MHCIIlo;RFP-), early-Aire (MHCIIhi;RFP-), late-Aire (MHCIIhi;RFP+), and post-Aire (MHCIIlo;RFP+). The data were used to identify differentially expressed genes across the four mTEC subsets to examine mTEC heterogeneity and identify novel mTEC subpopulations.

Project description:To study the contribution of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in tumor metastasis, we established an EMT lineage tracing model in a multiple-transgenic mouse (MMTV-PyMT/Fsp1-Cre/Rosa26mT/mG, Tri-PyMT). In this model, breast tumor cells that underwent EMT would irreversibly switch their expression of the fluorescent marker from RFP+ to GFP+ due to the mesenchymal specific Cre expression. Surprisingly, we found that metastatic tumor cells did not convert from RFP+ to GFP+. Lung metastases were predominantly composed of RFP+ tumor cells persistently exhibiting epithelial phenotypes. These findings challenge the concept that EMT is required for metastasis, and have attracted vigorous discussion about its true contributions to metastasis. One of the major concerns with the EMT lineage tracing model is that expression of GFP only indicates the complete EMT transition. The partial-EMT programming, a novel concept describing tumor cells exhibiting both epithelial and mesenchymal features, could possibly fail to launch the Fsp1-Cre-mediated fluorescent marker switch. To address this concern, we evaluated the EMT status of Tri-PyMT cells on the single cell level by performing single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq). We found that the expression of epithelial markers (i.e. Epcam and Krt18) and mesenchymal markers (i.e. Vim and S110a4) were largely confined to RFP+ and GFP+ subpopulations, respectively. Based on the differentially expressed EMT related genes, we observed an EMT spectrum in which the low EMT score end was enriched with RFP+ cells, whereas the high EMT score end was enriched with GFP+ cells. Indeed, the fluorescent marker switch in Tri-PyMT cells predicted their EMT status with high specificity and sensitivity. Tri-PyMT cells which were derived from the primary breast tumor of triple transgenic mouse (MMTV-PyMT:Fsp1-cre:Rosa26mT/mG) were sorted into RFP+ or GFP+ populations by FACS and subjected for Drop-seq analysis.
