Project description:Cytosine methylation of DNA CpG dinucleotides in gene promoters is an epigenetic modification that regulates gene transcription. While many methods exist to interrogate methylation states, no current methods offer large-scale, targeted, single CpG resolution. We report an approach combining bisulfite treatment followed by RainDance microdroplet PCR with next-generation sequencing to assay the methylation state of 50 genes in the regions 1 kb upstream and downstream of their transcription start sites. Wildtype and hypermethylated Jurkat DNA (New Englad Biolabs) was treated with bisulfite to convert all unmethylated cytosines to uracil. Following bisulfite treatment, targeted amplification was carried out using a custom primer library and microdroplet PCR. PCR product was sheared to 200 bp and ligated to sequencing adapters following standard protocols. Sequencing was conducted with single-end 100 bp reads on an Illumina GAIIx for wild type Jurkat DNA or Jurkat CpG DNA with a single sample per lane.

Project description:Memory T cells are primed for rapid responses to antigen; however, the molecular mechanisms responsible for priming remain incompletely defined. CpG methylation in promoters is an epigenetic modification, which regulates gene transcription. Using targeted bisulfite sequencing, we examined methylation of 2100 genes (56,000 CpG) mapped by deep sequencing to T cell activation in human naïve and memory CD4 T cells. 466 CpGs (132 genes) displayed differential methylation between naïve and memory cells. 21 genes exhibited both differential methylation and gene expression before activation, linking promoter DNA methylation states to gene regulation; 6 genes encode proteins closely studied in T cells while 15 genes represent novel targets for further study. 39 genes exhibited reduced methylation in memory cells coupled with increased gene expression with activation compared to naïve cells, revealing specific genes more rapidly expressed in memory compared to naïve cells and potentially regulated by DNA methylation. These findings define a DNA methylation signature unique to memory CD4 T cells and correlated with activation-induced gene expression. Targeted bisulfite sequencing of primary human naïve and memory CD4 T cells at rest and 48 hours post-activation.

Project description:DNA barcodes can be used to identify single cells in a sequencing data space while optical codes can be used to track single live cells in an image data space. We have developed dual image and DNA (ID)-coding, which identifies individual single cells in both live image and sequencing data spaces. Samples provided here are relevant to proof-of-concept studies of ID-coding presented in the associated publication. DNA barcoded micro-particles were encapsulated in hydrogel droplets with or without single cells. The hydrogel droplets were then subjected to “single-droplet sequencing” where whole polyA-bearing nucleic acid components within a hydrogel droplet (i.e. mRNA from cells and synthetic DNA on beads) were concatenated by the same cell barcodes.

Project description:Cell lines have been used for drug discovery as useful models of cancers; however, they do not recapitulate cancers faithfully, especially in the points of rapid growth rate and microenvironment independency. Consequently, the majority of conventional anti-cancer drugs are less sensitive to slow growing cells and do not target microenvironmental support, although most primary cancer cells grow slower than cell lines and depend on microenvironmental support. Here, we developed a novel high throughput drug screening system using patient-derived xenograft (PDX) cells of lymphoma that maintained primary cancer cell phenotype more than cell lines. The library containing 2613 known pharmacologically active substance and off-patent drugs were screened by this system. We could find many compounds showing higher cytotoxicity than conventional anti-tumor drugs. Especially, pyruvinium pamoate showed the highest activity, and its strong anti-tumor effect was confirmed also in vivo. We extensively investigated its mechanism of action and found that it inhibited glutathione supply from stromal cells to lymphoma cells, implying the importance of the stromal protection from ox 1 idative stress for lymphoma cell survival and a new therapeutic strategy for lymphoma. Our system introduces a primary cancer cell phenotype into cell-based phenotype screening and sheds new light on anti-cancer drug development. Global gene expression profiles of PDX cells showed high similarity to those of original primary cells. The correlation coefficient of gene expression profiles between PDX cells and the originalprimary cells was 0.814-0.890.

Project description:Leaf-cutting ants of the genera Acromyrmex and Atta live in mutualistic symbiosis with a basidiomycete fungus (Leucocoprinus gongylophorus), which they cultivate as fungal gardens in underground nest chambers. The ants provide the fungus with a growth substrate consisting of freshly cut leaf fragments. After new leaf fragments are brought into the nest, the ants chew them into smaller pieces and apply droplets of fecal fluid to the leaf pulp before depositing this mixed substrate in the fungus garden and inoculating it with small tufts of mycelium from older parts of the garden. Previous work has shown that the fecal fluid contains a range of digestive enzymes including proteases, amylases, chitinases, cellulases, pectinases, hemicellulases and laccases, and that most of these enzymes are produced by the fungal symbiont in specialized structures called gongylidia that the ants eat. After ingestion, the enzymes apparently pass unharmed through the alimentary channel of the ants and end up in the fecal fluid. Most likely this complex system is an adaptation of the ant-fungus symbiosis to a herbivorous lifestyle, as the ancient ancestors of the ants and the fungus lived as hunter-gatherers and saprotrophs, respectively. The promise of fecal fluid for getting insight into the molecular adaptations that enables the ant-fungus holosymbiont to live as a herbivore, led us to investigate the fecal fluid proteome using LC-MS/MS in order to get a more comprehensive picture of the repertoire of proteins present.

Project description:Post-lactational involution of the mammary gland provides a unique model to study breast cancer susceptibility and metastasis. We have shown that the short isoform of Singleminded-2 (Sim2s), a bHLH/PAS transcription factor, plays a role in promoting lactogenic differentiation, as well as in maintaining mammary epithelial differentiation and malignancy. Sim2s is dynamically expressed during mammary gland development, with expression peaking during lactation, and decreasing in early involution. To determine the role of Sim2s in involution, we used transgenic mice expressing Sim2s under the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV-Sim2s) promoter. Over-expression of Sim2s in the mouse mammary gland resulted in delayed involution, indicated by a lower proportion of cleaved caspase-3 positive cells and slower re-establishment of the mammary fat pad. Immunohistochemical and quantitative RNA analysis showed a decrease in apoptotic markers and inflammatory response genes, and an increase in anti-apoptotic genes, which were accompanied by inhibition of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) activity. Microarray analysis confirmed that genes in the Stat3 signaling pathway were repressed by Sim2s expression, along with NFκB and other key pathways involved in mammary gland development. Multiparous MMTV-Sim2s females displayed a more differentiated phenotype compared to wild-type controls, characterized by enhanced β-casein expression and alveolar structures. Together, these results suggest a role for Sim2s in the normal involuting gland, and identify potential down-stream pathways regulated by Sim2s. Gene expression was measured in 6 mammary gland samples using CodeLink Mouse Whole Genome microarrays. 3 samples were from wild-type mice harvested at 72 hours post weaning and 3 samples were MMTV-Sim2s mice harvested at 72 hours post weaning.
