Gene expression profiling of supraclavicular brown, interscapular brown, inguinal white, and epididymal white adipose tissues from C57BL/6 male mice was performed by RNA-sequencing. Overall design: Total of 12 RNA samples (3 RNA samples from each adipose tissue type) from adipose tissues were used for RNA-sequencing analysis.

View SamplesWe used RNA sequencing to quantify the gene expression levels in the intestinal stem cells (ISCs) or their progeny during the suckling period of mouse colon development. Overall design: Lgr5-EGFP mice were used to identify ISC populations in the colons. RNA sequencing was performed using EGFP labeled Lgr5+ ISCs and epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) labeled epithelial cells isolated at the beginning and end of the suckling period (postnatal day 0-P0 and P21).
Postnatal epigenetic regulation of intestinal stem cells requires DNA methylation and is guided by the microbiome.

View SamplesAlthough liganded nuclear receptors have been established to regulate RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-dependent transcription units, their role in regulating Pol III-transcribed DNA repeats remains largely unknown. Here we report that ~2-3% of the ~100,000-200,000 total human DR2 Alu repeats located in proximity to activated Pol II transcription units are activated by the retinoic acid receptor (RAR) in human embryonic stem cells to generate Pol III-dependent RNAs. These transcripts are processed, initially in a DICER-dependent fashion, into small RNAs (~28-65 nt) referred to as repeat-induced RNAs that cause the degradation of a subset of crucial stem-cell mRNAs, including Nanog mRNA, which modulate exit from the proliferative stem-cell state. This regulation requires AGO3-dependent accumulation of processed DR2 Alu transcripts and the subsequent recruitment of AGO3-associated decapping complexes to the target mRNA. In this way, the RAR-dependent and Pol III-dependent DR2 Alu transcriptional events in stem cells functionally complement the Pol II-dependent neuronal transcriptional program. Overall design: RNA-sequencing of polyA selected RNA molecules in NTera2/D1 cells and Global Run On (GRO) assay followed by high throughput sequencing (GRO-seq).

View SamplesFOXO1 is highly expressed in normal B cells and in most types of non-Hodgkinl lymphoma. In Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells of classical Hodgkin lymphoma(cHL) expression of FOXO1 is low or absent. We overexpressed constitutively active mutant of FOXO1 fused in frame with estrogen receptor ligand-binding domain (FOXO1(3A)ER), which can be activated by 4-Hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT), in cHL cell lines KM-H2 and L428. Activation of the FOXO1 with 4-OHT resulted in inhibition of proliferation and apoptosis. Using gene-expression array we found that FOXO1 activates transcription of known and potential tumor suppressor genes: CDKN1B, PMAIP1, BCL2L11, TNFSF10, FBXO32, CBLB). Of note, FOXO1 repressed transcription of several cytokines and cytokine receptors, which are known tobe involved in pathogenesis of cHL (e.g. CCL5, CXCR5, TNFRSF8). Taken togather our data indicate important role of FOXO1 repression in pathogenesis of cHL.

View SamplesThe identification of genes and deduced pathways from the mature human oocyte can help us better understand oogenesis, folliculogenesis, fertilization, and embryonic development. Human metaphase II oocytes were used within minutes after removal from the ovary, and its transcriptome was compared with a reference sample consisting of a mixture of total RNA from 10 different normal human tissues not including the ovary. RNA amplification was performed by using a unique protocol. Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 GeneChip arrays were used for hybridizations. Compared with reference samples, there were 5,331 transcripts significantly up-regulated and 7,074 transcripts significantly down-regulated in the oocyte. Of the oocyte up-regulated probe sets, 1,430 have unknown function. A core group of 66 transcripts was identified by intersecting significantly up-regulated genes of the human oocyte with those from the mouse oocyte and from human and mouse embryonic stem cells. GeneChip array results were validated using RT-PCR in a selected set of oocyte-specific genes. Within the up-regulated probe sets, the top overrepresented categories were related to RNA and protein metabolism, followed by DNA metabolism and chromatin modification. This report provides a comprehensive expression baseline of genes expressed in in vivo matured human oocytes. Further understanding of the biological role of these genes may expand our knowledge on meiotic cell cycle, fertilization, chromatin remodeling, lineage commitment, pluripotency, tissue regeneration, and morphogenesis.
