Propionate reinforces epithelial identity and reduces aggressiveness of non-small cell lung carcinoma via chromatin remodelling [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: To investigate the effect of sodium propionate (SP) in enhancing the epithelial gene program via epigenetic remodelling in NSCLC, A549 cell line was treated with SP for 3 hours. Chromatin immunoprecipitation DNA-sequencing (ChIP-seq) was performed for the histone mark H3K27ac in A549 cell line treated with SP for 3 hours.

Project description:The aim of this experiment was to develop an approach for the assessment of immunotoxicity in zebrafish embryos (Danio rerio) using transcriptomic profiling. Clobetasol propionate, a highly potent synthetic corticosteroid, which is known to have immunosuppressive effects on vertebrates including zebrafish, was used for continuous exposure from fertilization until extraction. As immunotoxicity can only be comprehensively assessed when the effect is observed during an acute infection, the embryos were injected with a mixture of different pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) consisting of Pam3CSK4 (synthetic lipopeptide), poly(I:C) (synthetic viral dsRNA) and flagellin (isolated from Bacillus subtilis). Functional gene expression analysis from samples obtained by different kinds and combinations of treatments in relation to appropriate controls is used to identify pathways that are upregulated by artificial infection and suppressed by treatment with clobetasol propionate. In a modified version of the zebrafish embryo toxicity test (OECD 236), 20 fertilized eggs were exposed to a sub-lethal concentration (250 nM) of clobetasol propionate for 48 hours under semi-static conditions. The test comprised of three treatments with clobetasol propionate and two negative control (NC) groups and was performed in triplicates. At 46 hours post fertilization (hpf), the eggs were manually dechorinated. At 48 hpf, the embryos were immobilized by anaesthetization using 200 mg/mL tricaine. Using microinjection, 8 nL of the mixed PAMPs (0.33 µg/mL Pam3CSK4, 0.33 µg/mL poly(I:C) and 0.033 µg/mL flagellin) were injected directly into the embryos bloodstream. One of each exposure groups was injected with PAMPs, while another one was injected with ultrapure water to control for effects introduced by the injection process. One control group remained completely untreated. After injection, the embryos were further incubated for 3 hours before 10 embryos were randomly picked for each sample and pooled for RNA and protein extraction with NucleoSpin RNA/Protein kit (Macherey-Nagel). RNA quality was assessed with a 2100 Bioanalyzer system (Agilent) before coding RNA was purified (PolyA selection with TruSeq RNA Library Prep Kit v2) and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 4000 System (Illumina) in 50 bp single read mode. Adapter sequences were removed with trimmomatic and sequences were aligned to the D.rerio reference genome GRCz11 with STAR. Counting of feature mapped reads was performed through featureCounts. Library gene count tables were then merged to a single count matrix as input for differential gene expression analysis with DESeq2.
