Project description:Cell density affects numerous biological processes, including gene expression and cell fate specification. However, mechanistic understanding of how changes in cell density alter the transcriptome is lacking. Here, we reveal that the expression of thousands of genes in mouse embryonic stem cells is affected by cell density. Furthermore, we find that low cell density enhances the efficiency of differentiation. Mechanistically, β-catenin is localized primarily to adherens junctions during conditions of high cell-cell contact. At low seeding density during differentiation, we observe that β-catenin translocates to the nucleus and co-activates target genes in concert with Tcf7l1, leading to the induction of lineage markers. Meanwhile, Esrrb sustains the expression of high density-specific, pluripotency-associated genes, but low seeding density differentiation reduces its occupancy on its target loci. Our demonstration of factors that transcriptionally regulate genes responsive to cell density contributes to our understanding of gene regulation in stem cells and has implications for reproducibility, as density can vary between substantially labs and experimental protocols.

Project description:In the murine system, Oct4, Sox2, c-Myc and Klf4 are sufficient to convert fibroblasts to induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells that exhibit many characteristics of embryonic stem (ES) cells. Herein, we show that the orphan nuclear receptor Esrrb works in conjunction with Oct4 and Sox2 to mediate reprogramming of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) to iPS cells. Esrrb reprogrammed cells share similar expression and epigenetic signatures as ES cells. These cells are also pluripotent and can differentiate in vitro and in vivo into the three major embryonic cell lineages. Furthermore, these cells contribute to mouse chimeras and are germline transmissible. In ES cells, Esrrb targets many genes involved in selfrenewal and pluripotency. This suggests that Esrrb may mediate reprogramming through the up-regulation of ES cell-specific genes. Our findings also indicate that it is possible to reprogram MEFs without exogenous Klf transcription factors and link a nuclear receptor to somatic cell reprogramming. Global gene expression effects of silencing the Esrrb gene. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression after silencing the Esrrb gene. Keywords: time-course Three biological replicates each for control GFP and Esrrb RNAi. The global gene expression profiles of the Esrrb knockdown cells were compared to control GFP knockdown cells for days 2, 4 and 6.

Project description:In vitro expansion of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) remains a challenge in stem cell research and its application. We hypothesize that high density culture is able to expansion EPCs from bone marrow by mimicking cell-cell interactions of the bone marrow niche. To test the hypothesis, rat bone marrow cells were either cultured in high density by seeding or cultured in regular density. Flow cytometric analyses of the cells cultured for 15 days showed that high density cells exhibited smaller cell size and higher levels of marker expression related to EPCs when compared to regular density cultured cells. Global gene expression pattern difference between the high density and the regular density cultured cells was analyzed by a microarray assay.

Project description:Synthetic glucocorticoids (GCs), such as dexamethasone and prednisone, remain key components of therapy for patients with lymphoid malignancies. For pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), response to GCs remains the most reliable prognostic indicator; failure to respond to GC correlates with poor event-free survival. To uncover GC resistance mechanisms, we performed a genome-wide, survival-based short hairpin RNA screen and identified the orphan nuclear receptor estrogen-related receptor-? (ESRRB) as a critical transcription factor that cooperates with the GC receptor (GR) to mediate the GC gene expression signature in mouse and human ALL cells. Esrrb knockdown interfered with the expression of genes that were induced and repressed by GR and resulted in GC resistance in vitro and in vivo. Dexamethasone treatment stimulated ESRRB binding to estrogen-related receptor elements (ERREs) in canonical GC-regulated genes, and H3K27Ac Hi-chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed increased interactions between GR- and ERRE-containing regulatory regions in dexamethasone-treated human T-ALL cells. Furthermore, ESRRB agonists enhanced GC target gene expression and synergized with dexamethasone to induce leukemic cell death, indicating that ESRRB agonists may overcome GC resistance in ALL, and potentially, in other lymphoid malignancies.
