Description
We had previously discovered that the transcription factor Cited2 was highly induced during trophoblast differentiation. In this study, we used an lentiviral shRNA strategy to decrease Cited2 expression in Rcho-1 trophoblast cells. A RNA-seq approach was used to determine global transcript differences inRcho-1 knockdown cells compared to control cells. Overall design: Rcho-1 cells transduced with control shRNAs were used as controls. Cells transduced with shRNAs targetingCited2 were used as treatment.Cells were differentiated for 8 days and the analyses were done.

Description
Purpose: Assess whether knocking out the UMLILO lncRNA altered the expression of genes transcribed within the CXCL chemokine TAD Outcome: To confirm whether the effect of UMLILO was limited to the CXCL TAD. Adeno-associated viral vectors (AAVs) were constructed that contain CRISPR/Cas9 and guides targeting UMLILO to delete the full length UMLILO transcript. RNAseq was performed on a transduced THP-1 population to verify genome-wide effects of UMLILO depletion. This revealed that IL8, CXCL1, 2, 3 transcription was abrogated, but a similar effect was not seen for genes located outside of the CXCL TAD boundary Overall design: AAVs were constructed that contain CRISPRs that harness non homologous end joining (NHEJ) to target UMLILO by deleting the genomic region encoding UMLILO, but not its promoter. The THP-1 monocytic cell line was transduced with the AAVs containing the CRISPRs for 1.5 weeks. Controls were transduced with AAV vector plasmids expressing SpCas9.

Description
Mammalian interphase chromosomes interact with the nuclear lamina (NL) through hundreds of large Lamina Associated Domains (LADs). We report a method to map NL contacts genome-wide in single human cells. Analysis of ~400 maps reveals a core architecture of gene-poor LADs that contact the NL with high cell-to-cell consistency, interspersed by LADs with more variable NL interactions. The variable contacts are more sensitive to a change in genome ploidy than the consistent contacts. Single-cell maps indicate that NL contacts involve multivalent interactions over hundreds of kilobases. Moreover, we observe extensive intra-chromosomal coordination of NL contacts, even over tens of megabases. Such coordinated loci exhibit preferential interactions as detected by Hi-C. Finally, single-cell gene expression and chromatin accessibility analysis shows that loci with consistent NL contacts are expressed at lower levels and are more consistently inaccessible than loci with lower contact frequencies. These results highlight fundamental principles of single cell chromatin organization. Overall design: In this dataset, single-cell mRNA sequencing results from 96 single KBM7 cells have been deposited

Description
We describe Hi-C, a method that probes the three-dimensional architecture of whole genomes by coupling proximity-based ligation with massively parallel sequencing. We constructed spatial proximity maps of the human genome with Hi-C at a resolution of 1Mb. These maps confirm the presence of chromosome territories and the spatial proximity of small, gene-rich chromosomes. We identified an additional level of genome organization that is characterized by the spatial segregation of open and closed chromatin to form two genome-wide compartments. At the megabase scale, the chromatin conformation is consistent with a fractal globule, a knot-free conformation that enables maximally dense packing while preserving the ability to easily fold and unfold any genomic locus. The fractal globule is distinct from the more commonly used globular equilibrium model. Our results demonstrate the power of Hi-C to map the dynamic conformations of whole genomes.

Description
Telogen (resting phase) hair follicles are more radioresistant than anagen (growth phase) ones. Irradiation of BALB/c mice in the anagen phase with -rays at 6 Gy induced hair follicle dystrophy, whereas irradiation in the telogen phase induced the arrest of hair follicle elongation without any dystrophy after post-irradiation depilation. In contrast, FGF18 was highly expressed in the telogen hair follicles to maintain the telogen phase and also the quiescence of hair follicle stem cells. Therefore, the inhibition of FGF receptor signaling at telogen induced the dystrophy after post-irradiation depilation. In addition, the administration of recombinant FGF18 suppressed cell proliferation in the hair follicles and enhanced the repair of radiation-induced DNA damage, so FGF18 protected the anagen hair follicles against radiation damage to enhance hair regeneration. Moreover, FGF18 reduced the expression of cyclin B1 and cdc2 in the skin and FGF18 signaling induced G2/M arrest in the keratinocyte cell line HaCaT, although no obvious change of the expression of DNA repair genes was detected by DNA microarray analysis. These findings suggest that FGF18 signaling for the hair cycle resting phase causes radioresistance in telogen hair follicles by arresting the proliferation of hair follicle cells.

Description
Although various mechanisms have been inferred for combinatorial actions of multiple carcinogens, these mechanisms have not been well demonstrated in experimental carcinogenesis models. We evaluated mammary carcinogenesis initiated by combined exposure to various doses of radiation and chemical carcinogens. Female rats at 7 weeks of age were -irradiated (0.22 Gy) and/or exposed to 1-methyl-1-nitrosourea (20 or 40 mg/kg, single intraperitoneal injection) or 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (40 mg/kg/day by gavage for 10 days) and were observed until 50 weeks of age. The incidence of mammary carcinoma increased steadily as a function of radiation dose in the absence of chemicals; mathematical analysis supported an additive increase when radiation was combined with a chemical carcinogen, irrespective of the chemical species and its dose. Hras mutations were characteristic of carcinomas that developed after chemical carcinogen treatments and were overrepresented in carcinomas induced by the combination of radiation and MNU (but not PhIP), indicating an interaction of radiation and MNU at the level of initiation. The expression profiles of seven classifier genes, previously shown to distinguish two classes of rat mammary carcinomas, categorized almost all examined carcinomas that developed after individual or combined treatments with radiation (1 Gy) and chemicals as belonging to a single class; more comprehensive screening using microarrays and a separate test sample set failed to identify differences in gene expression profiles among these carcinomas. These results suggest that a complex, multilevel interaction underlies the combinatorial action of radiation and chemical carcinogens in the experimental model.

Description
The goal of this study was to investigate the role of intragenic CTCF in alternative pre-mRNA splicing through a combined CTCF-ChIP-seq and RNA-seq approach. CTCF depletion led to decreased inclusion of weak upstream exons. Overall design: CTCF ChIP-seq was performed in BJAB and BL41 B cell lines and normalized relative to Rabbit Ig control IP-seq reads. RNA-seq was performed in BJAB and BL41 cells transduced with shRNA against CTCF or RFP as a control, and in untransduced cells as well.

Description
Cholesteatoma arises from a tympanic membrane and expands in the middle ear. It erodes the surrounding bone and leads to hearing loss or brain abscess which is lethal complication. Currently, the only effective treatment is the complete surgical removal of cholesteatoma. However, possibility of recurrence is not satisfactory, other clinical treatment is desired. A mechanism of bone erosion in rheumatoid arthritis, which is one of the bone destructive disease, is progressing to be clarified. Receptor activator of NF-?B ligand (RANKL) secreted by synovial fibroblasts, T cells, and B cells lead to differentiation and activation of osteoclast precursor in rheumatoid arthritis. In contrast it has been still unclear why cholesteatoma erodes bone. In the current study we studied that osteoclasts statistically increased in cholesteatoma, and that fibroblasts in the prematrix of cholesteatoma express RANKL. In this study we studied that osteoclasts statistically increased in cholesteatoma, and that fibroblasts in the prematrix of cholesteatoma express RANKL. We investigated upstream of RANKL from RNA sequence results by Ingenuity Pathways Analysis, which is data base of abundance information about molecular biology. Overall design: To generate the transcriptome profiles of the permatrix of cholesteatoma and dermis cut by laser micro dissection from cholesteatoma, three pairs of both sample from the same patients were adapted to RNA sequencing.
