Description
Ensuring cooperation among formerly autonomous cells has been a central challenge in the evolution of multicellular organisms. One solution is monoclonality, but this option does not eliminate genetic and epigenetic variability, leaving room for exploitative behavior. We therefore hypothesized that embryonic development must be protected by robust regulatory mechanisms that prevent aberrant clones from superseding wild-type cells. Using a genome-wide screen in murine induced pluripotent stem cells, we identified a network of genes (centered on p53, topoisomerase 1, and olfactory receptors) whose downregulation caused the cells to replace wild-type cells, both in vitro and in the mouse embryowithout perturbing normal development. These genes thus appear to fulfill an unexpected role in fostering cell cooperation.

Description
Conditional knockout of the transcription factor Ronin (Thap11) in retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) results in a profound failure cell proliferation resulting in a hypoplastic adult retina that also suffers from photoreceptor degeneration. The goal of this study was to determine which genes are deregulated in response to loss of Ronin transcription factor activity in the developing retina. We generated Ronin flox/flox (Control) and Chx10-Cre::GFP+/tg; Ronin flox/flox (CKO) mice, in which Ronin loss occurs specifically within RPCs, and performed RNA-Seq analysis of embryonic day E14.5 (E14.5) retinae. Three independent pools of control and Ronin CKO retinae were collected consisting of a minimum of 10 retinae per pool and total RNA was extracted followed by polyA selection, fractionation (200-500 nucleotide range) and generation of cDNA. The resulting DNA was then used for standard Illumina adaptor ligation and sequencing. This experiment revealed decreased expression of a large group of mitochondrial genes including components of the electron transport chain (ETC), which have been recently implicated as direct regulators of the cell cycle. Overall design: Retinal mRNA profiles of embryonic day 14.5 (E14.5) Control (Ronin flox/flox) and Ronin CKO (Chx10-Cre::GFP+/tg; Ronin flox/flox) mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate using Illumina HiSeq2500

Description
Analysis of gene expression profile of LSK (Lin-Sca-1+ c-Kit+) isolated from Jmjd1c f/f Vav1Cre or Vav1Cre controls. Loss of Jmjd1c minimally affected HSC in homeostatsis while impiars HSC function in response to stree such as transplantation and 5-Fu treatment. These results provide insight into the role of Jmjd1c in normal hematopoiesis. Overall design: LSK cells were isolated from bone marrow of seven weeks old Jmjd1c f/f Vav1Cre or Vav1Cre controls mice by flow acivated cell sorting and subjected to RNA-seq.

Description
The gut microbiota has been implicated in obesity and cardiometabolic diseases, although evidence in humans is scarce. We investigated how gut microbiota manipulation by antibiotics (7-day administration of amoxicillin, vancomycin, or placebo) affects host metabolism in 57 obese, prediabetic men. Vancomycin, but not amoxicillin, decreased bacterial diversity and reduced Firmicutes involved in short-chain fatty acid and bile acid metabolism, concomitant with altered plasma and/or fecal metabolite concentrations. Adipose tissue gene expression of oxidative pathways was upregulated by antibiotics, whereas immune-related pathways were downregulated by vancomycin. Antibiotics did not affect tissue-specific insulin sensitivity, energy/substrate metabolism, postprandial hormones and metabolites, systemic inflammation, gut permeability, and adipocyte size. Importantly, energy harvest, adipocyte size, and whole-body insulin sensitivity were not altered at 8-week follow-up, despite a still considerably altered microbial composition, indicating that interference with adult microbiota by 7-day antibiotic treatment has no clinically relevant impact on metabolic health in obese humans.

Senescence in WI-38 cell context was induce by RASv12 over expression Cellular senescence is a permanent cell cycle arrest that is triggered by cancer- initiating or promoting events in mammalian cells and is now considered a major tumour suppressor mechanism. Here, we did a transcriptomic analysis and compared WI-38 contol wich is a human fibroblaste cell line and WI-38 that overexpressed RASv12 a G protein that induce senescence. The goal of our project is to compare transciptomic profile of human growing fibroblast (WI-38 control) and senescent human fibroblast (WI-38 OERAS)

Description
In humans, there are four Ago proteins (Ago1–4) and AGO1- and 2 were previously implicated in TGS induced by exogenous siRNAs and microRNAs (miRs) directed against gene promoter transcripts via promotion of changes in histone covalent modifications and DNA methylation. Not-with-standing, many mechanistic details of this process remain poorly defined in human cells, and very little is known about the identity of possible endogenous signals, which may drive this process in human cells. Given the evolutionary conserved role of siRNAs and AGO proteins in TGS and heterochromatin formation, we set out to analyse their possible involvement in senesence-associated repression of E2F target genes. To obtain a detailed picture of AGO-immunoprecipitating miRs (RIP) in senescent cells, we used next-generation sequencing (NGS)(RIP-Seq). We also included histone H3 dimethylated on lysine 9 (H3K9me2) in this analysis to assign potential AGO2-interacting miRs to a repressive chromatin state and unfractionated, cellular RNA from senescent cells for normalisation. Overall design: Determination of AGO AGO-immunoprecipitating miRs in WI-38 senescent human fibroblast

Description
Using array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), a large number of deleted genomic regions have been identified in human cancers. However, subsequent efforts to identify target genes selected for inactivation in these regions have often been challenging. We integrated here genome-wide copy number data with gene expression data and non-sense mediated mRNA decay rates in breast cancer cell lines to prioritize gene candidates that are likely to be tumour suppressor genes inactivated by bi-allelic genetic events. The candidates were sequenced to identify potential mutations. This integrated genomic approach led to the identification of RIC8A at 11p15 as a putative candidate target gene for the genomic deletion in the ZR-75-1 breast cancer cell line. We identified a truncating mutation in this cell line, leading to loss of expression and rapid decay of the transcript. We screened 127 breast cancers for RIC8A mutations, but did not find any pathogenic mutations. No promoter hypermethylation in these tumours was detected either. However, analysis of gene expression data from breast tumours identified a small group of aggressive tumours that displayed low levels of RIC8A transcripts. Real-time PCR analysis of 38 breast tumours showed a strong association between low RIC8A expression and the presence of TP53 mutations (P=0.006). We demonstrate a data integration strategy leading to the identification of RIC8A as a gene undergoing a classical double-hit genetic inactivation in a breast cancer cell line, as well as in vivo evidence of loss of RIC8A expression in a subgroup of aggressive TP53 mutant breast cancers.
