Project description:Six1, Six4 and Myogenin are transcription factors that are known to be required for skeletal myogenesis. Currently, very little is known about the genes targeted by Six1 and Six4. Gene expression profiling when one or both transcription factors were knock-down by siRNA was performed to identify genes affected by their absence. We also hypothesized that Six1 and Six4 can work in cooperation with the myogenic regulatory factor (MRFs) family of transcription factors, such as Myogenin. Therefore, we performed the same type of experiment where the myogenin was knocked-down by siRNA to identify genes that are possibly regulated by the Six1 or Six4 in conjunction with Myogenin. C2C12 Myoblasts were transfected with siRNA against Six1, Six4, Six1 with Six4, Myogenin, or control 24h before start of differentiation. The cells were allowed to differentiate in differentiation medium for 24h and were harvested for gene expression profiling. Four replicates per siRNA were performed.

Project description:Identification of the gene targets of the SIX transcription factors in myogenic stem cells and in whole back muscles during murine fetal development Pax7 expression marks stem cells in developing skeletal muscles and adult satellite cells during homeostasis and muscle regeneration. The genetic determinants that control the entrance into the myogenic program and the appearance of PAX7+ cells during embryogenesis are poorly understood. SIX homeoproteins are encoded by the Sine oculis homeobox related Six1-Six6 genes in vertebrates. Six1, Six2, Six4 and Six5 are expressed in the muscle lineage. Here we tested the hypothesis that Six1 and Six4 could participate in the genesis of myogenic stem cells. We show that fewer PAX7+ cells occupy a satellite cell position between the myofiber and its associated basal lamina in Six1 and Six4 (s1s4KO) at E18. However, PAX7+ cells are detected in remaining muscle masses present in the epaxial region of the double mutant embryos and are able to divide and contribute to muscle growth. To further characterize the properties of s1s4KO PAX7+ cells, we analyzed their transcriptome and tested their properties after transplantation in adult regenerating tibialis anterior (TA) muscle. Mutant stem cells form hypotrophic myofibers that are not innervated but retain the ability to self-renew.

Project description:The aim of the experiment was to compare the transcriptome of Six1-/-Six4-/- and control embryos in order to identify genes under the control of Six proteins at E18.5. E18.5 RNAs from back muscles of three SixdKO and two control embryos were hybridized on Affymetrix mouse genome 430A2.0 arrays (Affymetrix, Strasbourg - France).

Project description:The overexpression of Six1, a member of the Six family of homeodomain transcription factors, has been found in various human cancers, and is associated with tumor progression and metastasis. We previously determined that the expression of Six1 mRNA increased during in vitro progression of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16)-immortalized human keratinocytes (HKc/HPV16) toward a differentiation-resistant (HKc/DR) phenotype. However, if Six1 promotes HPV16-mediated transformation or not remains unknown. HKc/DR were transfected with a Six1 or control vector and RNA isolated from these cells were used in an Agilent two-color gene expression profiling experiment. The goal was to determine the effects of Six1 on global gene expression. Two-condition experiment, Six1 vs. Control HKc/DR cells. Biological replicates: 4 Six1-transfected replicates and 4 control-transfected replicates.

Project description:Craniofacial development requires intricate cooperation of multiple transcription factors and signaling pathways. Six1 is a critical transcription factor regulating craniofacial development. However, the exact function of Six1 during craniofacial development remains elusive. In this study, we investigated the function of Six1 in mandible development using a Six1 knockout mouse model (Six1-/-) and a cranial neural crest-specific, Six1 conditional knockout mouse model (Six1f/f; Wnt1-Cre). The Six1-/- mice exhibited multiple craniofacial deformities, including severe microsomia, high-arched palate, and uvula deformity. Importantly, the Six1f/f; Wnt1-Cre mice recapitulate the microsomia phenotype of Six1-/- mice, thus demonstrating that the expression of Six1 in ectomesenchyme is critical for mandible development. We further showed that the knockout of Six1 led to abnormal expression of osteogenic genes within the mandible. Moreover, the knockdown of Six1 in C3H10 T1/2 cells reduced their osteogenic capacity in vitro. Using RNA-seq, we showed that both the loss of Six1 in the E18.5 mandible and the Six1 knockdown in C3H10 T1/2 led to the dysregulation of genes involved in embryonal skeletal development. In particular, we showed that Six1 binds to the promoter of Bmp4, Fat4, Fgf18, and Fgfr2, and promotes their transcription. Collectively, our results suggest that Six1 plays a critical role in the regulation of mandibular skeleton formation during mouse embryogenesis.

Project description:To identify Six1 target genes, we chose the mK4 cell line that represents later metanephric mesenchyme of the embryonic kidney. The cells were infected with adenovirus vectors (AxCAwt) overexpressing VP16-Six1wt or VP16-Six1W171R and cultured for 24h. Total RNA was extracted using Isogen reagent (Nippon Gene), treated with RNase-free DNase (Roche Diagnostics) and purified with RNeasy Midi Kit (QIAGEN). Poly A+ RNA was selected using Oligotex-dT30 latex beads (TaKaRa). Poly A+ RNA (20 µg) was reverse transcribed using an oligo(dT) primer in the presence of aminoallyl dUTP without the addition of spike-in controls. Then, single-stranded cDNAs were coupled with Cy3 (AxCAwt VP16-Six1wt infected sample) or Cy5 (AxCAwt VP16-Six1W171R infected sample) dyes, and the labeled probes were purified with QIAquick PCR Purification kit (QIAGEN). Hybridization to the microarray was carried out at 65°C for 17h according to the manufacturer's instruction. The arrays were washed, dried and scanned using ScanArray 5000 (GSI Lumonics) at two different PMT voltage settings (high and low) to avoid signal saturation. Cy3 and Cy5 intensities for each spot on the array were determined by QuantArray software (Version 3.0.0.0, GSI Lumonics). The raw data thus obtained was processed and the Cy3 to Cy5 ratios were calculated as follows: 1) subtraction of the fluorescence intensity of negative control spots as background from the intensity of each of the Cy3 and Cy5 spots, 2) normalization of the entire data set using the global normalization method, 3) elimination of spots with high background intensity for either dye, and 4) determination of the Cy3 to Cy5 ratios. To identify Six4 target genes, we chose the mK4 cell line that represents later metanephric mesenchyme of the embryonic kidney.
