Project description:We compared the effects on liver cells of dosing a control antibody or a combination of an antibody-based WNT mimetic plus RSPO2 to activation Wnt signaling. We applied scRNA-seq to dissociated liver cells after each treatment.

Project description:This study investigates the transcriptional consequences of short-duration HIPEC-mimetic exposure to Mithramycin A (MA) in HT-29 colorectal cancer cells. Cells were exposed for 90 minutes to MA (750 nM) or Mitomycin C (4.48 µM) at 37 °C followed by drug washout. RNA sequencing was performed to determine whether transient exposure induces durable transcriptional reprogramming. Differential expression and pathway analyses identified coordinated enrichment of cell-cycle checkpoint programs and modulation of chromatin regulatory networks. One biological replicate (MA2) was excluded due to high duplication rates and low mapping efficiency. Analyses excluding this sample are presented.

Project description:We designed and demonstrated a synthetic strategy to derive mimetic Vγ9Vδ2 T cells endowed with NKRs from iPSCs. We used microarrays to compare mRNA expression profiles of such iPSC-derived mimetic Vγ9Vδ2 T cells with other peripheral blood lymphocytes.

Project description:Although tear replacement and anti-inflammatory treatments have been thoroughly investigated, a method to induce epithelial restoration is lacking. Here, we asked whether WNT signaling activation via an antibody-based WNT mimetic platform might activate lacrimal gland acinar cells and restore tear secretion. Transcriptional and cellular changes were investigated using single cell sequencing. In a mouse model of dry eye disease, and intra-lacrimal gland treatment with a WNT mimetic targeting FZD1, 2, and 7 reversed aqueous tear deficiency. After excretory duct ligation damage, WNT mimetic treatment promoted acinar cell restoration and increased detectable tear volume production. We demonstrate a role for WNT signaling in acinar cell proliferation, and scRNA-seq revealed that the WNT mimetic promotes pathway activation and proliferation in injury-induced states. Our findings extend the potential for WNT pathway activation via a ligand mimetic platform to lacrimal gland regeneration.

Project description:The effect of the Smac mimetic BV6 on the transcriptional regulation in the alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma cell line RH30 was investigated by bulk RNA-sequencing. To this end, RH30 cells were treated with 5 µM BV6 for 24 h, or left untreated. Here, a regulation of several NF-κB target genes could be observed.

Project description:The generation of self-tolerant repertoires of T cells depends on the expression of peripheral self antigens in the thymic epithelium, and the presence of small populations of cells mimicking the diverse phenotypes of peripheral tissues. Whereas the molecular underpinnings of self-antigen expression have been extensively studied, the developmental origins and differentiation pathways of thymic mimetic cells remain to be identified. Moreover, the histological identification of myoid and other peripheral cell types as components of the thymic microenvironment of many vertebrate species raises questions as to the evolutionary origin of this unique tolerance mechanism. Here, we show that during mouse development, mimetic cells appear in the microenvironment in two successive waves. Cells exhibiting transcriptional signatures characteristic of muscle, ionocyte, goblet and ciliated cells emerge before birth, whereas others, for instance those mimicking enterohepatic cells and skin keratinocytes appear postnatally. These two groups also respond differently to modulations of TEC progenitor pools caused by deletions of Foxn1 and Ascl1, expression of a hypomorphic Foxn1 transcription factor, and overexpression of Bmp4 and Fgf7 signalling molecules. Differences in mimetic cell populations were also observed in thymic microenvironments reconstructed by replacement of mouse Foxn1 with evolutionarily ancient Foxn1/4 gene family members, including the Foxn4 gene of the cephalochordate amphioxus, and the Foxn4 and Foxn1 genes of a cartilaginous fish. Whereas some cell types, such as ciliated cells, develop in the thymus in the absence of Foxn1, mimetic cells appearing postnatally, such as enterohepatic cells, require the activity of the vertebrate-specific transcription factor Foxn1. The thymus of cartilaginous fishes and the thymoid of lampreys, a representative of jawless vertebrates that exhibit an alternative adaptive immune system, also harbour cells expressing genes encoding peripheral tissue components, such as the liver-specific protein transthyretin. Our findings suggest an evolutionary model of successive changes of thymic epithelial genetic networks enabling the coordinated contribution of peripheral antigen expression and mimetic cell formation to achieve central tolerance for vertebrate-specific innovations of certain tissues, such as the liver.
