Project description:The aim of the experiment is to elucidate changes in tumor heterogeneity upon chemotherapy treatment. The experiment includes non-treated samples, samples right after chemotherapy treatment (FOLFIRI) and organoids recovered from FOLFIRI. It was conducted in two different genetic backgrounds, AKP (Apc KO, KrasG12D and P53 KO) and APS (Apc KO, P53 and Smad4KO). In addition to that, the organoids carry an inducible Cre-ERT2 knock-in allele in the mex3a locus. Upon 4-OH-Tamoxifen induction, Mex3a cells will recombine the tracing allele stop-TdTomato, enabling the tracing of this subpopulation. To understand the fate of the traced cells, samples right after chemotherapy and in the recovery setting were sorted based on their tomato expression. This enables a single cell tracing experiment.
Project description:Mex3a is an RNA binding protein of unknown function. To elucidate the contribution of Mex3a to tumoral heterogeneity, Mex3a KO organoids engineered by CRISPR were sequenced in three different conditions. Live organoids (DAPI negative) were sorted in Control, after 2 days of FOLFIRI and after 5 days of treatment. Two WT organoids (parental and a derived clone) and two KO (KO1 and KO2, two independent clones) were used for this experiment.
Project description:This submission contains the mass spectrometry files for the manuscript by Aurelie Lacouture et al. that describes the quantitative proteomics analysis of mouse mammary gland epithelial organoids proteome. Experiments were performed from mammary glands organoids derived from mouse and the MS files were acquired on Orbitrap Fusion mass spectrometer.

Project description:To assess the role of LSD1 in human intestinal epithelium, human small intestinal organoids were treated with an inhibitor for LSD1 (GSK-LSD1) and compared to untreated organoids. The organoids were grown with specific conditions where Paneth cells are present in the organoids as similar experiments in mice show that Paneth cells disappear upon GSK-LSD1 treatment. Similar to mouse intestinal organoids, Paneth cells dissappear upon GSK-LSD1 treatment. Furthermore, we used these gene set enrichment analysis on these microarray data to show that these human intestinal organoids have a similar phenotype as mice epithelium without LSD1.
Project description:We aimed to investigate gene expression changes in intestinal organoids from different mouse genotypes after treatment with interferon-gamma. Wild-type, villinCreER;KrasG12D/+;Trp53fl/flRosa26N1icd/+ (KPN), and villinCreER;Apcfl/fl;KrasG12D/+;Trp53fl/flTgfbrIfl/fl (AKPT) intestinal organoids were plated, and the media was supplemented with 1 ng/mL of recombinant mouse interferon-gamma protein on Day 3. RNA was collected 24h later and processed for RNA sequencing.
Project description:We aimed to investigate gene expression changes in intestinal organoids from different mouse genotypes after treatment with TGF-beta. Wild-type, villinCreER;KrasG12D/+;Trp53fl/flRosa26N1icd/+ (KPN), and villinCreER;Apcfl/fl;KrasG12D/+;Trp53fl/flTgfbrIfl/fl (AKPT) intestinal organoids were plated, and the media was supplemented with 5ng/mL of recombinant mouse TGFß1 protein on Day 3. RNA was collected 24h later and processed for RNA sequencing.
Project description:We performed single-cell RNA sequencing of dorsal forebrain organoids at day 53 of differentiation upon treatment with Hyper-IL-6. The study aimed at investigation of the effects of Hyper-IL-6 on transcriptional profiles of dorsal forebrain organoids at single-cell level.
