Project description:the aim 1 was to evaluate hashing (sample multiplexing) accuracy of TotalSeq-B antibodies and CellPlex (a multiplexing solution from 10x Genomics) on 2 pools of PBMCs from 3 different donors. Thus the genetic difference between donors was used as a ground truth for sample demultiplexing based on antibody or lipid hashing hashing. the aim 2 was to evaluate TotalSeq antibody and lipid hashing on different mice primary tissues using different hashing protocols.

Project description:Our objective was to identify genes differentially expressed between control and Ezh2 cKO decidua, and to compare this set of genes with a previously identified gene set of H3K27me3-marked decidual genes that are putatively silenced by EZH2/PRC2 (Nancy et al. JCI. 2018). RNA was isolated from whole tissue decidua and myometrium of control and Ezh2 cKO mice. Sequencing provided was 731 million total reads with an average of 84.5% of these reads aligning uniquely to the mouse genome. Reads uniquely mapped to known mRNAs were used to identify gene expression changes between housing conditions using DESeq2. We found that 2530 protein-coding genes were differentially expressed within the decidua and 521 were differentially expressed in the myometrium (FDR<0.05, excluding genes whose normalized read counts were less than 30 averaged across samples). Hypergeometric analysis revealed a strong enrichment for previously identified H3K27me3 targets within genes overexpressed in Ezh2 cKO decidua.

Project description:We have generated genome-wide binding and expression datasets in uterine smooth muscle (myometrium) from murine models of pregnancy and labour. ChIP-seq and total RNA-seq experiments were conducted to evaluate changes in the genomic and transcriptomic landscape of the myometrium prior to, during, and after labour onset.

Project description:Context: Increased uterine stretch appears to increase the risk of preterm labour, but the mechanism is unknown. Objectives: To identify a targetable mechanism mediating the effect of stretch on human myometrium. Design: Myometrial explants, prepared from biopsies obtained at elective caesarean delivery, were either studied acutely, or were maintained in prolonged culture (up to 65 h) under tension with either a 0.6 g or 2.4 g mass, and compared using in vitro contractility, whole genome array, and qRT-PCR. Results: Increased stretch for 24 or 65 h increased potassium-induced and oxytocin-induced contractility. Gene array identified 62 differentially expressed transcripts after 65 h exposure to increased stretch. Two probes for gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP), a known stimulatory agonist of smooth muscle, were among the top five up-regulated by stretch (3.4-fold and 2.0-fold). Up-regulation of GRP by stretch was confirmed in a separate series of 10 samples using qRT-PCR (2.8-fold, P = 0.01). GRP stimulated contractions acutely when added to freshly obtained myometrial strips in 3 out of 9 cases, but Western blot demonstrated expression of the GRP receptor in 9 out of 9 cases. Prolonged incubation of stretched explants in the GRP antagonists PD-176252 or RC-3095 (65 and 24 h respectively) significantly reduced potassium chloride and oxytocin-induced contractility. Conclusion: Stretch of human myometrium increases contractility and stimulates the expression of a known smooth muscle stimulatory agonist, GRP. Incubation of myometrium in GRP receptor antagonists ameliorates the effect of stretch. GRP may be a target for novel therapies to reduce the risk of preterm birth in multiple pregnancy. 9 paired samples of human myometrium cultured under low (0.6g) or high (2.4g) tension

Project description:Context: Progesterone is important physiologically and therapeutically to maintain uterine quiescence during pregnancy. It acts in part through controlling myometrial gene expression. Objective: To use expression microarray and qRT-PCR validation to determine the changes in gene expression induced by prolonged exposure to a synthetic progestogen. Design: Myometrial explants, obtained at elective Caesarean section (n=9 patients), were maintained in culture, under 0.6g tension, for 3 days in the presence or absence of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA, 100nM). Expression array was performed using Illumina human-8 v3 beadchip arrays. Approximately 30% of differentially expressed transcripts were validated in biological replicates (n=10) using qRT-PCR. Results: Transcripts from 114 genes were significantly differentially expressed. These were significantly enriched in inflammatory response (P=0.00001), growth factor activity (P=0.0004) and cytokine activity genes (P=0.008). 34 transcripts were validated using qRT-PCR using an additional independent sample set obtained from 10 further women. There was very close agreement in the fold changes obtained by array and qRT-PCR analysis (r2=0.9, P<0.0001). We confirmed significant down-regulation of a number of genes which have been well characterized as progesterone sensitive, such as IL1B, IL6, PTGS2 and GJA1. However, the top and 6th most down-regulated genes encoded two cytokines, IL11 and IL24, respectively, not previously implicated in mediating the effects of progesterone in myometrium. Both were validated by qRT-PCR (4.3-fold and 2.2-fold down-regulated, both P<0.001). Conclusions: Progestogens control expression of multiple genes in myometrium, including many with no previously recognised role, including IL11 and IL24. It is plausible that proteins encoded by some of these genes may have important, but as yet uncharacterized effects in controlling human parturition. 9 paired samples of human myometrium treated with MPA (10-7M) or vehicle
