Project description:Quiescent canine valvular interstitial cells (n=3) and activated valvular interstitial cells (n=3) were grown in 2% FBS. Quiescent cells were treated with either TGFB1 or vehicle for 3 days and activated cells were treated with SB431542 for 4 days. mRNA was extracted using the qiagen RNeasy minikit and assessed by the agilent 2200 bioanalsyser. all samples passed quality control and transcriptomic analysis was performed by edinburgh genomics using the Affymetrix GeneChip™ Canine Gene 1.1ST Array. Results were reported as CEL files and then analysed in Affymetrix expression console (version 1.4.1.46) using the canine 1.1ST library files from Affymetrix. Robust Multi-array Average (RMA) was used to perform gene level normalisation and signal level summarisation.Following this, quality control assessment was performed on the data set. This included assessment of hybridisation (spike in) controls, labelling (poly-A) controls and area under the curve (AUC) control, probe cell intensity boxplots, a signal histogram graph and principle component analysis (PCA) plot. Following this assessment, the datasets were exported with annotation as a text file or as a CHT file. Affymetrix transcriptome analysis console (version 3.1.0.5) was used to perform paired or unpaired one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).

Project description:We are currently studying the mechanisms that confer tumour initiating potential upon SP, and as part of this work, we undertook gene profiling studies comparing expression between SP and non-SP cells, initially focusing on the most common soft tissue sarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma (or MFH) Sarcomas contain a subpopulation of cells which exclude Hoechst dye (SP cells) and are enriched for tumor initiating potential. The persistence of SP cells could be responsible for relapse or a failed response to therapy. Expression profiles were compared between the SP and non-SP cells from malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) tumors using microarray. The Hedgehog and Notch pathways were activated in SP cells. Blocking these pathways in MFH xenografts established in NOD-SCID mice depleted the abundance of SP cells and reduced tumor growth. Intriguingly, treatment also substantially inhibited the potential for successful secondary transplantation. The data provides support that SP cells act as tumor initiating cells in sarcomas and suggests targeting the SP as an enticing approach for sarcoma therapy. In this study, we studied six MFH tumours, and identified a number of signaling pathways that were consistently activated in the SP population compared to the non-SP population.

Project description:Telomeres are the ends of linear chromosomes and consist of repetitive double- and single-stranded DNA sequences. Telomeres are bound by dedicated protein complexes, such as shelterin in mammals. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, a comprehensive understanding of the proteins interacting with the telomere sequence is lacking. Here, we harnessed a quantitative proteomics approach to screen for proteins binding to C. elegans telomeres, and identified TEBP-1 and TEBP-2, two paralogs that associate to telomeres in vitro and in vivo. TEBP-1 and TEBP-2 form a telomeric complex with the known single-stranded telomere-binding proteins POT-1, POT-2, and MRT-1. tebp-1 and tebp-2 mutants display strikingly distinct phenotypes: tebp-1 mutants have longer telomeres than wild-type animals, while tebp 2 mutants display shorter telomeres and a mortal germline, a phenotype characterized by transgenerational germline deterioration. Notably, tebp 1;tebp-2 double mutant animals are synthetic sterile, with germlines showing signs of severe mitotic and meiotic arrest. These results define the first telomere-binding complex of C. elegans, including TEBP-1 and TEBP-2, two double-stranded telomere binders required for fertility.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) exert important functions in the extracellular space and in cell-to-cell communication. Ultracentrifugation, the most frequently used EV isolation technique, requires specialized equipment and provides relatively low purity and yield. A more recently applied and easily accessible EV isolation technique is size exclusion chromatography (SEC). Here, we hypothesized that EVs isolated from dilute cell culture media by concentration on a 10 kDa filter followed by SEC are suitable for proteomic and functional studies. We also hypothesized that the protein-rich SEC fractions are suitable controls to assess biological effects of the non-EV associated secretome. Cell-depleted medium from BEAS-2B bronchial epithelial cells (60 ml) was 0.22 µm filtered, concentrated to 0.5 ml by 10 kDa UF and run over a sepharose CL-4B column. Fractions were assessed for protein and EV content. EV-rich and protein-rich fractions were concentrated by 10 kDa UF. EV concentrates were characterized by tuneable resistive pulse sensing, cryo transmission electron microscopy and nanoLC-MS/MS. Finally, we assessed the effect of EVs or free secreted protein from unexposed cells or cells exposed to 1% (v/v) cigarette smoke extract (CSE) on IL-8 release by naïve BEAS-2B cells or on adhesion of THP-1 monocytes to endothelial cells. UF concentrated the EVs with approximately 100% recovery. Most of EVs eluted in SEC fractions 6-11, while protein became detectable at fraction 12. The final EV recovery was 40 ± 4%, as compared to 27 ± 8% by ultracentrifugation. Mass Spectrometry of the EV fractions identified 388 different proteins, including various EV markers. Only the protein, but not the EV fractions from media of CSE-exposed cells induced IL-8 release by naïve bronchial epithelial cells, whereas only EVs, but not the protein fractions induced THP-1 adhesion to endothelial cells. Thus, UF followed by SEC provides EV isolates with sufficient yield and purity for proteomic studies and allows directly comparing the functional effects of EVs and the non-EV associated secretome.

Project description:Chromosome conformation capture (3C) and derivative (4C, 5C and Hi-C) methods employ ligation of diluted cross-linked chromatin complexes, intended to favor proximity-dependent, intra-complex ligation. We previously described an alternative Hi-C protocol with ligation in preserved nuclei rather than in solution. Here we directly compare Hi-C methods employing "in-nucleus ligation" and the standard "in-solution ligation". The results show that in-nucleus ligation captures chromatin interactions more consistently over a wider range of distances, and significantly reduces both experimental noise and bias. Thus in-nucleus ligation not only simplifies the experimental procedures, but also produces higher quality data with benefits for the entire range of 3C applications. We created Hi-C libraries by two different methods, in-solution ligation and in-nucleus ligation, from two biological replicates each of mouse foetal liver cells (mouse-1 and mouse-2) and human ES cells (human-1 and human-2) or the mixture of these two species. We also sequenced a random ligation library prepared by reversal of the cross-links and purification of the DNA prior to ligation.

Project description:Here, we profiled transcription across the cell cycle in single human myxoid liposarcoma cells, without prior synchronization. Flourescence-activated cell sorting was used to infer G1, S or G2/M cell cycle stages after staining cells for DNA content. Single-cell RNA-sequencing was performed according to the Smart-seq2 protocol.

Project description:The RELMα+ macrophage phenotype associates with the presence of anti-inflammatory macrophages and work in other model systems has demonstrated that the balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory macrophages is critically important in enabling the resolution of inflammation. Moreover, in the context of type 2 immunity, RELMα+ anti-inflammatory macrophages are associated with the activation of macrophages via the IL4Ra. Despite a breadth of inflammatory pathologies associated with the large intestine, including those that accompany parasitic infection, it is not known about how large intestinal macrophages are activated towards an anti-inflammatory phenotype.
