Project description:We created a mouse model where conditional expression of physiologic levels of an Mll-AF4 fusion oncogene induces development of acute lymphoblastic (ALL) or acute myeloid leukemias (AML). Immunophenotypic and gene expression analysis of the ALL cells demonstrated bone marrow replacement with B-precursor cells which express a gene expression profile that has significant overlap with profiles in human MLL-rearranged ALL. To examine early, pre-leukemic changes in lymphoid cells due to Mll-AF4 expression, we infected 5-FU bone marrow cells from Mll-AF4stop knocking mice with activating (Cre-GFP) or control (MIF-GFP) retrovirus ex vivo and measured expression changes after culture under lymphoid growth conditions. Experiment Overall Design: Mll-AF4stop knock-in mice were treated with 5-FU and 5 days later their bone marrow infected ex vivo with either Cre-GFP to activate the Mll-AF4 fusion construct or with a control MIG-Cre retrovirus. GFP+ cells were sorted 2 days post-infection and cultured for 14 days under lymphoid growth conditions before total RNA was isolated for hybridization to Affymetrix expression microarrays.

Project description:Purpose: To compare bone marrow cell population and gene regulation changes in GATA-1 mutation Knockin mice compared with wild type mice Methods: Flow cytometry sorting mouse bone marrow cells (Lin- Kit+) from GATA-1 mutation Knockin mice and wild type mice were collected and performed single cell RNAseq analysis Results: cell population and gene regulation changes in GATA-1 mutation Knockin mice and wild type mice bone marrow cells were compared
Project description:A transcriptome study in mouse hematopoietic stem cells was performed using a sensitive SAGE method, in an attempt to detect medium and low abundant transcripts expressed in these cells. Among a total of 31,380 unique transcript, 17,326 (55%) known genes were detected, 14,054 (45%) low-copy transcripts that have no matches to currently known genes. 3,899 (23%) were alternatively spliced transcripts of the known genes and 3,754 (22%) represent anti-sense transcripts from known genes. Mouse hematopoietic stem cells were purified from bone marrow cells using negative and positive selection with a Magnetic-Activated Cell Sorter (MACS). total RNA and mRNA were purified from the purified cells using Trizol reagent and magnetic oligo dT beads. Double strand cDNAs were synthesized using a cDNA synthesis kit and anchored oligo dT primers. After NlaIII digestion, 3’ cDNAs were isolated and amplified through 16-cycle PCR. SAGE tags were released from the 3’ cDNA after linker ligation. Ditags were formed, concatemerized and cloned into a pZERO vector. Sequencing reactions were performed with the ET sequencing terminator kit. Sequences were collected using a Megabase 1000 sequencer. SAGE tag sequences were extracted using SAGE 2000 software.

Project description:To identify such targets of leukemia-related miRNAs such as miR-196b, we conducted Affymetrix gene arrays of leukemic BM samples from 24 mice including 9 primary (including 3 each of negative control, MLL-AF9, and miR-196b+MLL-AF9) and 15 secondary (including 3 negative control, 6 MLL-AF9, and 6 miR-196b+MLL-AF9) recipient mice A total of 24 mouse bone marrow samples including 9 primary (including 3 each of negative control, MLL-AF9, and miR-196b+MLL-AF9) and 15 secondary (including 3 negative control, 6 MLL-AF9, and 6 miR-196b+MLL-AF9) obtained from the in vivo mouse bone marrow reconstitution assays were analyzed by use of Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (Affymetirx, Santa Clara, CA)
