Project description:Genes specific to Sox9+ pancreatic progenitors were identified by comparing the gene expression in embryonic and adult Sox9+ cells. We used microarray analysis to detail the global changes in gene expression as Sox9 positive embryonic pancreatic progenitors differentiatiate into adult ductal cells or the endocrine lineage.

Project description:Genes specific to Sox9+ pancreatic progenitors were identified by comparing the gene expression in embryonic and adult Sox9+ cells. We used microarray analysis to detail the global changes in gene expression as Sox9 positive embryonic pancreatic progenitors differentiatiate into adult ductal cells or the endocrine lineage. GFP positive cells from Sox9-EGFP mouse pancreas were isolated by FACS at different stages of development (e10.5, e15.5, and p23) for RNA extraction and hybridization to Affymetrix microarrays. To obtain populations highly enriched in Sox9 expression, we collected only GFP Hi populations for analysis. To identify gene expression changes specific to the differentiation of progenitors to ductal cells or endocrine cells, we also isolated and analyzed the gene expression profile of GFP negative cells isolated at p23, as well as GFP positive cells isolated from Ngn3-EGFP mouse pancreas at e15.5. These two populations allow the identification of genes whose expression is associated with the newly differentiated endocrine progeny in the embryo (Ngn3-GFP positive) and adult acinar and endocrine cells at p23.

Project description:A major event in mammalian male sex determination is the induction of the testis determining factor Sry and its downstream gene Sox9. The current study provides one of the first genome wide analyses of the downstream gene binding targets for SRY and SOX9 to help elucidate the molecular control of Sertoli cell differentiation and testis development. A modified ChIP-Chip analysis using a comparative hybridization was used to identify 71 direct downstream binding targets for SRY and 109 binding targets for SOX9. Interestingly, only 5 gene targets overlapped between SRY and SOX9. In addition to the direct response element binding gene targets, a large number of atypical binding gene targets were identified for both SRY and SOX9. Bioinformatic analysis of the downstream binding targets identified gene networks and cellular pathways potentially involved in the induction of Sertoli cell differentiation and testis development. The specific DNA sequence binding site motifs for both SRY and SOX9 were identified. Observations provide insights into the molecular control of male gonadal sex determination. The current study provides one of the first genome wide analyses of the downstream gene binding targets for SRY and SOX9 to help elucidate the molecular control of Sertoli cell differentiation and testis development. At embryonic day 13 (E13) of pregnancy rats were euthanized and embryonic gonads were collected for chromatin. A modified ChIP-Chip analysis using a comparative hybridization was used to identify direct downstream binding targets for SRY and for SOX9. Then, bioinformatic analysis of the downstream binding targets was done to identify gene networks and cellular pathways that are potentially involved in the induction of Sertoli cell differentiation and testis development.

Project description:Human ß cell dedifferentiation as a potent mechanism of diabetes is gaining prominence. Several data suggest an upregulation of the transcription factor SOX9, a progenitor and duct cell marker during ß cell dedifferentiation. However, its targets in such cells need more understanding. Here, we overexpressed SOX9 and a constitutively active mutant (VP16-SOX9∆TAD) in Human pancreatic beta EndoC-ßH1 cells in order to understand its targets.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive form of cancer with high mortality. The cellular origins of PDAC are largely unknown, however, ductal cells, especially centroacinar cells (CACs), have several characteristics in common with PDAC, such as expression of SOX9 and components of the Notch-signaling pathway. Mutations in KRAS and alterations to Notch signaling are common in PDAC; and, both these pathways regulate the transcription factor SOX9. To identify genes regulated by SOX9, we performed siRNA knockdown of SOX9 followed by RNA-seq in PANC-1 cells, a human PDAC cell line. We report 93 differentially expressed (DE) genes, with convergence on alterations to Notch-signaling pathways and ciliogenesis. These results point to SOX9 and Notch activity being in a positive feedback loop; and, SOX9 regulating cilia production in PDAC. We additionally performed ChIP-seq in PANC-1 cells to identify direct targets of SOX9 binding and integrated these results with our DE gene list. Nine of the top ten downregulated genes have evidence of direct SOX9 binding at their promoter regions. One of these targets was the cancer stem cell marker EpCAM. Using whole-mount in situ hybridization to detect epcam transcript in zebrafish larvae, we demonstrated that epcam is a CAC marker and that Sox9 regulation of epcam expression is conserved in zebrafish. Additionally, we generated an epcam null mutant and observed pronounced defects in ciliogenesis during development. Our results provide a link between SOX9, EpCAM, and ciliary repression that can be exploited in improving our understanding of the cellular origins and mechanisms of PDAC.

Project description:We compared Sox9-association at chondrocyte targets to a broad catalogue of regulatory indicators of chromatin organization and transcriptional activity to determine Sox9’s direct regulatory actions in normal developing chondrocytes. Sox9-associated regions resolve into two distinct regulatory categories. Class I regions closely associate with transcriptional start sites (TSSs). Their targets reflect general regulators of basal cell activities that Sox9 engages indirectly through a likely association with the basal transcriptional complex. In contrast, Class II regions outside of the local TSS domains highlight evolutionarily conserved, active enhancers directing expression of chondrocyte specific target genes, though DNA binding of Sox9-dimers at target sites with sub-optimal binding affinity. The level of associated chondrocyte gene expression correlates with the number of enhancer modules around the target gene and grouping into super-enhancer clusters. Comparison of Sox9 programs between neural crest and mesoderm-derived chondrocytes points to similar modes of chondrocyte specification in distinct chondrocyte lineages. These data provide the first insight into mammalian Sox family actions at the genome scale in the vivo setting. The resulting enhancer sets provide a key resource for further dissection of the regulatory programs of mammalian chondrogenesis. Incorportation of ChIP-seq data of Sox9 and histone modification marks for chromatin status together with micorarray gene expression profiling in neonatal mice chondrocytes to uncover Sox9 regulatory system.
