Project description:Stem cell-derived tissues have wide potential for modelling developmental and pathological processes as well as cell-based therapy. However, it has proven difficult to generate several key cell types in vitro, including skeletal muscle. In vertebrates, skeletal muscles derive during embryogenesis from the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). Using PSM development as a guide to establish conditions for the differentiation of monolayer cultures of embryonic stem (ES) cells into PSM-like cells without the introduction of transgenes or cell sorting. We generated a high resolution transcriptome expression landscape along the PSM of the mouse embryo, by microdissecting consecutive fragment of the PSM along the antero-posterior axis of the embryo. We took advantage of the observation that during development of embryo, the antero-posterior spatial position of the tissue is directly correlated to its differentiation (time) stage, thus generating an expression time-course of presomitic mesoderm development.
Project description:Presomitic mesoderm (PSM) were microdissected from E9.5 mouse embryos (WT and TCre/+;Taf10flox/flox). 3 PSM (17-19 somites stage) were pooled per microarray, in triplicates, per genotypes
Project description:To describe gene expression changes associated with differentiation of mouse presomitic mesoderm (PSM) cells into somites, RNA sequencing (paired-end) was performed using non-cultured, wild-type PSM tissues that were microdissected into tailbud, posterior PSM, anterior PSM, and somite regions. Smart-seq2 protocol was used, and each condition includes six biological replicates.
Project description:To describe chromatin accessibility changes associated with differentiation of mouse presomitic mesoderm (PSM) cells into somites, ATAC sequencing (paired-end) was performed using non-cultured, wild-type PSM tissues that were microdissected into tailbud, posterior PSM, anterior PSM, and somite regions. Omni-ATAC protocol was used, and each condition includes six biological replicates.�
Project description:Global gene expression profiling of human iPSC and the iPSC-derived presomitic mesoderm(PSM), somite(SM), and the derivatives, dermomyotome(DM), dermatome(D), myotome(MYO), sclerotome(SCL) and syndetome(SYN).
Project description:To determine glycolytic flux-responsive genes in mouse presomitic mesoderm (PSM) cells, RNA sequencing (single-end) was performed using tailbud tissues isolated from wild-type and cytoPFKFB3 PSM explants cultured in different glucose conditions. Smart-seq2 protocol was used, and each condition includes three biological replicates. This study is complementary to ENA Project PRJEB55095.
Project description:Somitogenesis is the segmentation of the developing embryonic body axis into somites and is guided by oscillating genes, which create waves of expression that travel across the presomitic mesoderm (PSM) from posterior to anterior. Upon arrival of a wave at the PSM's anterior end, a new somite is formed. To identify genes that are expressed in a wave-like pattern we dissected the PSM of four different mouse embryos (pre-turned), separated the left and right sides, and divided each into five segments, from posterior to anterior (sampling sites 1 to 5). Each segment was used to construct libraries for high-throughput RNA-sequencing. For one embryo, we also sequenced two somites.
