Project description:Investigating how the Wnt-driven Mll1 epigenome regulates salivary gland and head and neck cancer. We performed mRNA-seq and ChIP-seq of H3K4me1, me2 and me3 on mouse salivary gland cancer cells that are kept in two different growth conditions, adherent culture and non-adherent sphere culture. Mouse salivary gland cancer cells were isolated from salivary gland of transgenic mouse that harbor K14-Cre-induced Wnt/β-catenin gain-of-function and Bmpr1a loss-of-function mutations. Anti-H3K4me1 (C15410194), -me2 (C15410035) and -me3 (C15410003-50) antibodies were purchased from Diagenode. ChIP-seq was performed according to the protocols provided by Diagenode using the iDeal ChIP-seq kit for histones and the iDeal library preparation kit. For mRNA-seq, mRNA was extracted according to the standard TRIzol protocol (Invitrogen) and subjected to library preparation using the TruSeq stranded mRNA library preparation kit. Sequencing was performed with the TruSeq SBS Kit v3-HS (2 X 200 cycles) on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 sequencer.
Project description:The submandibular salivary gland stroma makes up only a small portion of the total salivary gland and the stromal response to salivary gland injury has been understudied. We used single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNAseq) to analyze which cell types are present in deligated and homeostatic salivary glands, how the cell type abundance is altered during regeneration, and how the transcriptome of those cells is being altered. This will allow us to examine which cell types are important contributors torecovery from salivary gland ductal ligation injury.

We used single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNAseq) to analyze which cell types are present in ductal ligated and mock surgery salivary glands, how the cell type abundance is altered during injury, and how the transcriptome of those cells is being altered. This will allow us to examine which cell types are important contributors to recovery from salivary gland ductal ligation injury.
Project description:The submandibular salivary gland stroma makes up only a small portion of the total salivary gland and the stromal response to salivary gland injury has been understudied. We used single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNAseq) to analyze which cell types are present in both control and ligated samples, how the cell type abundance is altered following injury, and how the transcriptome of those cells is being altered. This will allow us to examine which cell types are important contributors to fibrosis induced by salivary gland ductal ligation injury.
Project description:Salivary glands that produce and secret saliva, which is essential for lubrication, digestion, immunity, and oral homeostasis, consist of diverse cells. Maintenance of diverse salivary gland cells in organoids remains problematic. Here, we established human salivary gland organoids, which is composed of multiple cellular subsets, from 3 major salivary glands, including parotid gland (PG), submandibular gland (SMG), and sublingual gland (SLG). Human salivary gland organoids expressed gland-specific genes and proteins of acinar, myoepithelial, and duct cells. Organoids were maintained in growth media (named GEM) and further underwent differentiation in differentiation media (named DAM). Our study will provide an experimental platform for the exploration of mechanisms involvled in tissue regeneration, development, or several salivary gland diseases.
Project description:Salivary glands that produce and secret saliva, which is essential for lubrication, digestion, immunity, and oral homeostasis, consist of diverse cells. The long-term maintenance of diverse salivary gland cells in organoids remains problematic. Here, we established long-term murine salivary gland organoids from 3 major salivary glands, including parotid gland (PG), submandibular gland (SMG), and sublingual gland (SLG). Murine salivary gland organoids expressed gland-specific genes and proteins of acinar, myoepithelial, and duct cells. Organoids were maintained in growth media (named GEM) and further underwent differentiation in differentiation media (named DAM). Our study will provide an experimental platform for the exploration of mechanisms involvled in tissue regeneration, development, or several salivary gland diseases.
Project description:To identify transcription factors important for salivary gland organoids and associated to salivary gland stem/progenitor cells, we performed ATAC-seq of organoids derived from non-irradiated mice of different ages.
Project description:The immortalized normal human salivary gland ductal cells (NS-SV-DC) and acinar cells (NS-SV-AC) have characteristic morphologic differences and useful for organizing knowledge of bio-functional mechanisms of human salivary gland.

Project description:We performed bulk RNA-sequencing analysis of human submandibular gland samples and then compared to expression of multiple human tissues in order to identify a salivary gland gene signature.
