Description
Molecular mechanisms of cell cycle exit are poorly understood. A group of genes required for cell cycle exit and maintenance of cell quiescence in human fibroblasts following serum deprivation has been recently identified. Studies on lymphocytes following growth factor deprivation-induced cell cycle exit have predominantly focused on the initiation of apoptosis. A set of genes involved in lymphocyte quiescence have also been identified among genes highly expressed in resting lymphocytes and down-regulated after cell activation. In our study, proliferating IL-2-dependent human T cells were forced to exit cell cycle by growth factor withdrawal, and their gene expression profiles were examined.

Description
The primary objective of the study was to investigate the uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1) associated features of human epicardial adipose tissue (eAT) using next generation deep sequencing. In addition, paired mediastinal adipose tissue (mAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (sAT) samples colleced from patients undergoing cardic surgeries at our center were included in the study. Overall design: Paired biopsies of eAT, mAT and sAT obtained from cardiac surgery patients (n=10), with specific criteria of high- and low- expression of UCP1 in eAT, were subjected to RNA sequencing. While the primary objective was to compare high- vs. low UCP1 expression in eAT, our study design further allowed us to investigate depot- and disease specific transcriptomic shifts in these patients. Specifically, 10 patients provided 30 samples (n = 10 each for eAT, mAT and sAT) that could be compared based on depot specificity (n = 10), obesity (n = 5 lean, n = 5 obese) and coronary artery disease (CAD) (n = 6 CAD, 4 = Non-CAD).

Description
Macrophages in tumor microenvironment have been characterized as M1- and M2-polarized subtypes. This study sought to investigate the effects of different macrophage subtypes on the biological behavior and global gene expression profiles of lung cancer cells. Expression microarray and bioinformatics analyses indicated that the different macrophage subtypes mainly regulated genes involved in cell cycle, cytoskeletal remodeling, coagulation, cell adhesion and apoptosis pathways in A549 cells, a pattern that correlated with the altered behavior of A549 cells observed after coculture with macrophage subtypes.

Description
The mammary gland at early stages of pregnancy undergoes fast cell proliferation, yet the mechanism to ensure its genome integrity is largely unknown. Here we show that pregnancy enhances expression of genes involved in numerous pathways, including most genes encoding replisomes. In mouse mammary glands, replisome genes are positively regulated by estrogen/ERa signaling but negatively regulated by BRCA1. Upon DNA damage, BRCA1 deficiency markedly enhances DNA replication initiation. BRCA1 deficiency also preferably impairs DNA replication checkpoints mediated by ATR and CHK1 but not by WEE1, which inhibits DNA replication initiation through CDC7-MCM2 pathway and enables BRCA1-deficient cells to avoid further genomic instability. Thus, BRCA1 and WEE1 inhibit DNA replication initiation in a parallel manner to ensure genome stability for mammary gland development during pregnancy.
Publication Title
BRCA1 represses DNA replication initiation through antagonizing estrogen signaling and maintains genome stability in parallel with WEE1-MCM2 signaling during pregnancy.

Description
We report the high-throughput profiling of brain RNA from three Drosophila stains: dBRWD3PX2/+, dBRWD3PX2/PX2 and dBRWD3PX2/PX2, yemGS21861/GS21861. By obtaining over 50 million reads of sequence, WE compared the transcriptomic differences among the brains from these three stains. We found that the expression of 871 genes was significantly different between heterozygous control and homozygous dBRWD3 mutant brains (484 upregulated genes, 387 downregulated genes, p<0.05). Gene ontology (GO) analysis of the 871 genes revealed a broad spectrum of biological processes, ranging from synaptic activity to housekeeping metabolism subjective to dBRWD3 regulation. Among the 387 downregulated genes, the expression of 360 genes (92.8%) was increased in the dBRWD3, yem double mutant brains compared with dBRWD3 mutant. Among the 484 upregulated genes, the expression of 412 genes (85.1%) was decreased in the double mutant brains. These differential genes were evenly distributed on X chromosome and autosomes (149 on X, 178 on 2L, 154 on 2R, 166 on 3L, and 207 on 3R). These analyses indicate that dBRWD3 regulates gene expression in the brain mainly through the HIRA/YEM complex. Overall design: Examination of brain transcriptome in 3 Drosophila strains.

Description
The majority of the human genome is transcribed, yielding a rich repository of non-coding transcripts that are involved in a myriad of biological processes including cancer. However, how non-coding transcripts such as Long Non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) function in prostate cancer is still unclear. In this study, we have identified a novel set of clinically relevant androgen-regulated lncRNAs in prostate cancer. Among this group, we found LINC00844 is a direct androgen regulated target that is actively transcribed in AR-dependent prostate cancer cells. In clinical analysis, the expression of LINC00844 is higher in normal prostate compared to malignant and metastatic prostate cancer samples and patients with low expression demonstrate poor prognosis and significantly increased biochemical recurrence suggesting LINC00844 may function in suppressing tumor progression and metastasis. From in-vitroloss-of-function studies, we showed LINC00844 prevents prostate cancer cell migration and invasion. Moreover, in gene expression studies we demonstrate LINC00844 functions in trans, affecting global androgen-regulated gene transcription. Mechanistically, we provide evidence to show LINC00844 is important in facilitating AR binding to the chromatin. Finally, we showed LINC00844 mediates its phenotypic effects in part by activating the expression of NDRG1, a crucial cancer metastasis suppressor. Collectively, our findings indicate LINC00844 is a novel coregulator of AR that plays an important role in the androgen transcriptional network and the development and progression of prostate cancer.

Description
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) Rta is a latent-lytic molecular switch evolutionarily conserved in all gamma-herpesviruses. In previous studies, doxycycline-inducible Rta was shown to potently produce an irreversible G1 arrest followed by cellular senescence in 293 cells. Here, we demonstrate that in this system the inducible Rta not only reactivates resident genome of EBV but also that of Kaposis sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), to similar efficiency. However, Rta-induced senescence program was terminated by the robust viral lytic cycle replication that eventually caused cell death. Furthermore, prior to the abrupt expression of immediate-early protein (EBV BZLF1 or KSHV RTA), Rta simultaneously down-regulates cell cycle activators (c-Myc, CDK6, CCND2) and up-regulates senescence-related genes (p21, 14-3-3s). Since Rta is a viral immediate-early transcriptional activator, it is envisioned that during the initial stage of viral reactivation, Rta may engage to modulate the host transcriptome, to halt cell cycle progression, and to maintain an ideal environment for manufacturing infectious virions.
