Project description:Little is known about the global transcriptional program underlying granulocytic (G) commitment, differentiation and maturation. Using DNA microarrays and Q-RT-PCR, we examined the transcriptional profile of G differentiation of human CD34-positive hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells cultured with interleukin-3, interleukin-6 granulocyte colony stimulating factor and stem cell factor. The goal this study was to identify genes involved in the various facets of G differentiation including commitment, expansion, differentiation and functional capacity. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE5917: Temporal expression profile of granulocytic differentiation of primary CD34+ cells cultured under 20% O2 levels; GSE5918: Temporal expression profile of granulocytic differentiation of primary CD34+ cells cultured under 5% O2 levels; GSE6792: The transcriptional patterns of mature normal PB neutrophils (granulocytes) was examined and used as a control against which the transcriptional programs of cultured granulocytes and granulocytic cells lines can be compared. Experiment Overall Design: Refer to individual Series

The goal this study was to identify genes involved in the various facets of G differentiation including commitment, expansion, differentiation and functional capacity. Experiment Overall Design: G-CSF mobilized peripheral blood CD34-positive cells were cultured with IL-3, IL-6, SCF and G-CSF under 5% O2. Three biological replicate experiments were analyzed and approximately 15% of the samples were technically replicated. Hybridizations were performed in a reference design with all samples labeled with Cy3 and a reference RNA pool labeled with Cy5.

Project description:Purpose: Oxygen (O2) levels in cell culture conditions is typically 2-5 fold higher than the physiological O2 levels that most tissues experience in vivo. The ambient atmospheric O2 (21%) is known to induce cell proliferation defects and cellular senescence in stem cell and primary cell cultures. Therefore, culturing these cells under lower O2 levels (2-9%) is currently a standard practice. However, the non-cancerous immortalized cells and cancer cells, which evade cellular senescence are normally cultured under 21% O2 levels and the effects of higher O2 levels on these cells are not fully understood. Methods: Gene expression (RNA seq transcriptomics) analysis of immortalized human bronchial epithelial (BEAS-2B) cells cultured at ambient 21% O2 and lower 10% O2 levels for 3 days and 3 weeks. Further the beneficial effects of cuturing cells under lower oxygen tension is evalulated Results: Our results show NF-κB/RelA mediated activation of pro-inflammatory cytokines as a major outcome of cells being cultured 21% O2. Moreover, we demonstrate increased RelA binding at the NF-κB1/RelA target gene promoters at 21% O2. Interestingly, contrary to cells cultutred at 21% O2, external stress induced by H2O2 exposure did not induce inflammatory response in cells grown at 10% O2, suggesting increased ability to handle external stress in cells cultured at lower O2 levels.

Project description:Reintroduction of CEBPA in MN1-overexpressing hematopoietic cells prevents their hyper-proliferation and restores myeloid differentiation. Forced expression of MN1 in primitive mouse hematopoietic cells causes acute myeloid leukemia and impairs all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) induced granulocytic differentiation. Here, we studied the effects of MN1 on myeloid differentiation and proliferation using primary human CD34+ hematopoietic cells, lineage depleted mouse bone marrow cells, and bipotential (granulocytic/monocytic) human AML-cell lines. We show that exogenous MN1 stimulated the growth of CD34+ cells, which was accompanied by enhanced survival and increased cell cycle traverse in cultures supporting progenitor cell growth. Forced MN1 expression impaired both granulocytic and monocytic differentiation in vitro in primary hematopoietic cells and AML cell lines. Endogenous MN1 expression was higher in human CD34+ cells compared to both primary and in vitro differentiated monocytes and granulocytes. Microarray and real time RT-PCR analysis of MN1-overexpressing CD34+ cells showed down regulation of CEBPA and its downstream target genes. Re-introduction of conditional and constitutive CEBPA overcame the effects of MN1 on myeloid differentiation and inhibited MN1-induced proliferation in vitro. These results indicate that down regulation of CEBPA activity contributes to MN1-modulated proliferation and impaired myeloid differentiation of hematopoietic cells Human BM derived CD34+ cells (Stemcell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada) were expanded for 2 days and transduced with MSCV-IRES-GFP or MSCV-MN1-IRES-GFP retrovirus for another 2 days. One day later RNA was isolated from GFP+/CD34+ FACS-sorted cells using Trizol (Sigma) and samples were subjected to micro array analysis following Affymetrix protocols (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) using the GeneChip Human U133 Plus 2.0 array
