Description
We used wild-type 129 mice to understand the mechanism of action behind SRT3025’s hematopoiesis-enhancing effect. Transcriptome analysis of cKit+ Sca1+ Lin- cells (KSL) cells discovered that a list of genes changed their expression levels significantly after SRT3025 administration in wild-type mice. Most notably, the cell cycle regulator p21 was down-regulated by 2.1 fold after SRT3025 administration. It is possible that the transcriptional suppression of p21 by SRT3025 might contribute to the compound’s beneficial effects on hematopoiesis. It has to be pointed out that, since our transcriptome analysis was limited to hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell population, we cannot rule out the possibility that SRT3025 works through the regulation of other cells such as certain important HSC niche components. The HSC niche is known to regulate stem cell pool size. Among the other genes suppressed by SRT3025, Thbs1 and Fosl2 encode thrombospondin 1 and Fos-like antigen 2, respectively. Both proteins are components of the HSC niche. Overall design: The goal of this study is to investigate gene expression changes in wild-type 129 mice in response to SRT3025 treatment. The study focuses on bone marrow cKit+ Sca1+ Lin- cells (representing hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells). These cells were sorted twice by FACS to ensure the purity. Cells of interest were collected in Trizol. RNA were isolated using RNAeasy mini prep kit and mRNAs were positively selected using oligo(dT)- Dynobeads. Then RNAseq libraries were then made using Illumina TruSeq RNA Sample Prep Kit and sequeced on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 genome analyzer.

Description
We used Fancd2-/- mice to understand its mechanism of action. Transcriptome analysis of cKit+ Sca1+ Lin- (KSL) cells discovered that only four genes changed their expression levels significantly after chronic OXM administration in both Fancd2-/- and wild-type mice: mKi67 and Cenpf were up-regualted by 1.4 fold; Spp1 and Oasl2 were significantly down-regulated by 10.5 and 1.5 fold, respectively. Both mKi67 and Cenpf genes are cell cycle-regulated genes and proliferation markers. Their up-regulation was consistent with our observation in flow cytometry analysis that oxymetholone stimulated the proliferation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. RNAseq analysis showed no effects on mTert mRNA expression with chronic androgen therapy, but instead suggested down-regulation of Spp1 and Oasl2 as an important mechanism for the drug’s action. Our RNAseq analysis also revealed that Fancd2-/- KSL cells showed clear changes in mRNA expression profiles compared to wild-type controls: 430 genes were down-regulated by more than 1.5 fold, whereas 159 genes were up-regulated. Gene ontology analysis revealed key pathways to be significantly altered in Fancd2-/- KSL cells. Besides the abnormal cell cycle status expected from our earlier flow cytometry analysis, surprisingly we noticed that a group of genes involved in immune responses and inflammation, comprising Cfp (Properdin), Socs2, Ccr1, Ccr2, Ccr5, Chga (Chromogranin A), Ifi30 (Interferon Gamma-Inducible Protein 30), Lgmn, Txn, and Sell (selectin L), were up-regulated in Fancd2-/- KSL cells. We therefore hypothesize that some genes up-regulated in FA HSPCs may be part of an innate immune response to DNA damage. In addition, whole bone marrow cells were also analyzed in parallel with KSL cells. As compared to whole bone marrow cells, the genes enriched in KSL cells in wild-type mice were listed in details in the corresponding publication. This information can be a good resource for the future gene expression analysis of HSPCs. Finally, we compared the gene expression profiles of early progenitors between OXM-treated and placebo-treated mice. There were no significant differences at all in gene expression between OXM-treated wild-type erythroid progenitors and their placebo-treated wild-type counterparts, with no genes displaying an expression change higher than 1.2 fold. Importantly, no up-regulation of EPO-inducible genes such as Socs1, Socs2, Socs3, and Cish was seen in wild-type mice treated with OXM. Furthermore, there was no differential expression of the well-known EPO target transferrin receptor or any other major players of the Epo-R signaling network such as Bcl2l1, Cdc25a, Btg3, Ccnd2, Lyl1, Pim3, and Tnfrsf13c. These results indicate that EPO might not play a role in the action of OXM in the erythroid lineage. Overall design: The goal of this study is to investigate gene expression changes in Fancd2 knockout mice in response to oxymetholone treatment. The study focuses on two bone marrow cell populations: cKit+ Sca1+ Lin- cells (representing hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells) and Ter119+/CD71high/FSChigh cells (representing proerythroblasts and basophilic erythroblasts). Both populations were sorted twice by FACS to ensure the purity. Cells of interest were collected in Trizol and RNA was isolated using RNAeasy mini prep kit. mRNAs were positively selected using oligo(dT)- Dynobeads and treated with DNase I. RNAseq libraries were then constructed using Illumina TruSeq RNA Sample Prep Kit and sequenced as 51 base-length reads on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 genome analyzer. For KSL libraries, each sample represented total mRNA isolated from pooled KSL cells of 5 individual mice; for basophilic erythroblast libraries, each library represented total mRNA isolated from basophilic erythroblasts of one individual mouse; for whole bone marrow libraries, each sample represented a combined library originally from 5 individual mice. All reads were mapped to the mouse reference genome (version mm9) using Bowtie short read aligner software (http://bowtie-bio.sf.net). Most of the data analysis was performed using EdgeR GLM algorithms. For the comparison of oxymetholone KSL libraries vs placebo KSL libraries, more stringent pair-wise comparisons were used to keep a consistent flow cytometric setting among each pair. The common gene list was the one shared by all three comparisons: COM17 vs HSC_101b, HSC_13 vs HSC_18, and HSC_23 vs QZ_35 for Fancd2-/- KSL cells; HSC_3 vs QZ_36, HSC_22 vs HSC_24, and COM15 vs COM16 for wild-type KSL cells. Data-mining and pathway analysis were carried out with the MetaCore integrated software suite (Thomson Reuters, New York, USA).

Description
During early development, the correct establishment of the body axes is a critical step. The anterior pole of the mouse embryo is established when Distal Visceral Endoderm (DVE) cells migrate to form the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Asymmetrical expression of Lefty1, Cerl and Dkk determines the direction of DVE migration and the future anterior side. Besides being implicated in the establishment of Anterior-Posterior axis the AVE has also been correlated with anterior neural specification. In order to better understand the role of the AVE in these processes, this cell population was isolated using a cerlP-EGFP transgenic mouse line, and a differential screening was performed using Affymetrix GeneChip technology. From this differential screening, 175 genes were found to be upregulated in the AVE, whereas 35 genes were upregulated in the Proximal-posterior sample. Using DAVID, here we characterize the AVE cell population regarding cellular component, molecular function and biological processes. Among the genes that were found to be upregulated in the AVE, several novel genes with expression in the AVE were identified. Four of the identified transcripts displaying high-fold change were further characterized by in situ hybridization in early stages of development in order to validate the screening. From those four selected genes, ADTK1 was chosen to be functionally characterized by targeted inactivation in ES cells. ADTK1 encodes for an unknown serine/threonine kinase. ADTK null mutants present short limbs and defects in the eye and ear. Taken together, these data point to the importance of reporting novel genes present in the AVE.

Description
To determine the temporal variation of mRNA levels, we collected and sequenced poly-adenylated RNA from all cell extracts, cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions of a conditional Dicer mutant [DTCM23/49 XY (Nesterova et al. 2008)] mouse Embryonic Stem Cells before induction of Dicer excision (day 0) and at days 4, 8, 10 and 12 following Dicer loss of function. coverage. Overall design: RNA from whole cell extracts was collected at days 0, 4, 8, 10 and 12 following loss of Dicer function and from the cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions of cell at day 0 and 12. Three biological replicates were obtained for all samples. Poly-adenylated directional 100 base paired-end sequencing libraries were prepared for all extracts and sequenced by BGI solutions (Hong Kong).
