Project description:micro RNA expression during adipogenesis of human mesenchynal stem cells. Cells transfected with wildtype human C/EBP-alpha (in expression vector pcDNA3.1) and overexpression of C/EBP-alpha for 48 hours were compared to control cells transfected with the empty vector.

Project description:This experiment was designed to identify C/ebp alpha target genes during the process of adipogenesis by means of comparison of differentiating (wild-type) cells to a perturbation model (transgenic cells). For this, gene expression profiling during adipogenesis of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) prepared from wild-type and transgenic mice was performed. The transgene encodes for a dominant-negative A-CEBP protein that abolishes C/EBP DNA-binding activity. Five timepoints were measured for both transgenic and wild-type MEFs during adipogenesis (0h, 10h, 20h, d3 , d8). Every timepoint was hybridized against pre-confluent cells as reference.

Project description:We took a systematic approach to determine the transcriptional programs that are specifically regulated by C/EBP? in mature white adipocytes of mice on chow diet or high fat diet. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that C/EBP?, as a lipogenic transcription factor, has unique direct targets compared to PPAR?. Our inducible adipocyte specific knockout system allows us to test the direct targets of C/EBP? and PPAR? in adipocytes by short-term C/EBP? or PPAR? elimination in mature adipocytes in vivo. Results indicate that although it has been shown that C/EBP? and PPAR? cross-regulate each other, they have distinct direct responsive targets. Moreover, there are very few C/EBP? specific targets in mice on a chow diet, most of the C/EBP? targets in mature adipocytes are genes modulated by HFD feeding. Total RNA obtained from subcutaneous adipose tissue of Adn-C/EBP?-/- mice on doxycycline chow diet for 3 days, doxycycline high fat diet for 3 days or 1 month and Adn-PPAR?-/- mice on doxycycline chow diet for 3 days, compared to control littermates.

Project description:Mutation or epigenetic silencing of the transcription factor C/EBP? is observed in ~10% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In both cases, a common global gene expression profile is observed, but down-stream targets relevant for leukemogenesis are not known. Here we identify Sox4 as a direct target of C/EBP? whereby its expression is inversely correlated with C/EBP? activity. Downregulation of Sox4 abrogated increased self-renewal of leukemic cells and restored their differentiation. Gene expression profiles of leukemia initiating cells (LICs) from both Sox4 overexpression and murine mutant C/EBP? AML models clustered together, but differed from other types of AML. Our data demonstrate that Sox4 overexpression resulting from C/EBP? inactivation contributes to the development of leukemias with a distinct LIC phenotype. K/L (bi-allelic Cebpa mutations) leukemic mice and Sox4 overexprssing leukemic mice were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We compared these microarray samples with the C57/BL6 wild type mice.

Project description:Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is widely recognized for its rapid deterioration in renal function, often resulting in unfavorable clinical outcomes. An increase in the expression of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBP⍺) has been observed in both human and mouse kidneys affected by AKI. We unraveled the downstream pathway of C/EBP⍺ through RNA-sequencing, confirming our findings with qRT-PCR and luciferase reporter assays. Furthermore, we identified a potential target for AKI reversal in a murine AKI model.

Project description:Earlier work has shown that pre-B cells can be converted into macrophages by the transcription factor C/EBP? at very high frequencies. Using this system we have now performed a systematic analysis of the question whether during transdifferentiation the cells transiently reactivate progenitor restricted genes or even retrodifferentiate. A transcriptome analysis of transdifferentiating cells showed that most genes are continuously up or downregulated, acquiring a macrophage phenotype within 5 days. In addition, we observed the transient reactivation of a subset of immature myeloid markers, as well as low levels of the progenitor markers Kit and Flt3 and a few lineage inappropriate genes. However, we were unable to observe the re-expression of cell surface marker combinations that characterize hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), including c-Kit and Flt3. This was the case even when C/EBPalpha was activated in pre-B cells under culture conditions that favor HSPC growth or when the transcription factor was activated in a time limited fashion. Together, our findings are consistent with the notion that the conversion from pre-B cells to macrophages is mostly direct and does not involve overt retrodifferentiation. Our microarray data indicate that most expression changes are direct, and that transdifferentiation does not involve retrodifferentiation. Our data also show that there is a low level transient activation of selected progenitor genes, as well as myeloid precursor genes. Primary mouse pre-B cells were infected with an inducible form of C/EBPa and cells induced to transdifferentiate with beta Estradiol (b-Est) harvested at different time points to analyze expression profiles, using Affymetrix 430.2 arrays.

Project description:Purpose: The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway is fundamental for cell proliferation and survival and is frequently altered and activated in neoplasia, including carcinomas of the lung. In this study we investigated the potential of targeting the catalytic class IA PI3K isoforms in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), which is the most aggressive of all lung cancer types. Experimental Design: The expression of PI3K isoforms in patient specimens was analyzed. The effects on SCLC cell survival and downstream signaling were determined following PI3K isoform inhibition by selective inhibitors or down-regulation by small interfering RNA. Results: Over-expression of the PI3K isoforms p110 -alpha and p110-alpha was shown by immunohistochemistry in primary SCLC tissue samples. Targeting the PI3K p110 -alpha with RNA interference (RNAi) or selective pharmacological inhibitors resulted in strongly affected cell proliferation of SCLC cells in vitro and in vivo, while targeting p110-alph was less effective. Inhibition of p110 -alpha also resulted in increased apoptosis and autophagy, which was accompanied by decreased phosphorylation of Akt and components of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, such as the ribosomal S6 protein, and the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1). A DNA microarray analysis revealed that p110-alpha inhibition profoundly affected the balance of pro- and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins. Finally, p110 -alpha inhibition led to impaired SCLC tumor formation and vascularization in vivo. Conclusion: Together our data demonstrate the key involvement of the PI3K isoform p110 -alpha in multiple tumor-promoting processes in SCLC. 3 control samples, 3 samples for two treaments

Project description:Background: LKB1 is among the most frequently altered tumor suppressors in lung adenocarcinoma. Inactivation of Lkb1 accelerates the growth and progression of oncogenic KRAS-driven lung tumors in mouse models. However, the molecular mechanisms by which LKB1 constrains lung tumorigenesis and whether the aggressive cancer state that stems from Lkb1 deficiency can be reverted remains unknown. Restoration of Lkb1 in established lung tumors promotes the expression of C/EBP target genes as well as features of alveolar type II cell differentiation, which requires the activity of C/EBP transcription factors in the developmental setting. Purpose: To determine the extent to which the disruption of C/EBP transcription factors recapitulates the transcriptional changes induced by the inactivation of Lkb1.Approach: To assess the changes gene expression induced by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated disruption of either C/EBP transcription factors or Lkb1, we induced lung tumors in KrasLSL-G12D/+;R26LSL-tdTomato;H11LSL-Cas9 mice using Lenti-sgNeo1/sgNT/sgNeo2/Cre (sgInert), Lenti-sgLkb1/Cre (sgLkb1), or Lenti-sgCebpa/sgCebpb/sgCebpd/Cre (sgCebpa/b/d). Neoplastic cells were then isolated from lung tumors by FACS for gene expression profiling by RNA-seq. Results: The disruption of C/EBP transcription factors partially recapitulates the gene expression changes induced by Lkb1 inactivation. Among the genes that are jointly dependent upon C/EBP transcription factors and LKB1 is an enrichment of NKX2-1-dependent target genes. Conclusions: C/EBP transcription factors likely operate downstream of LKB1 in an indirect manner, collaborating with another key developmental regulator, NKX2-1, to enforce alveolar type II cell differentiation to constrain tumor growth.
