Description
Regulation of organ size is important for development and tissue homeostasis. In Drosophila, Hippo signaling controls organ size by regulating the activity of a TEAD transcription factor, Scalloped, through modulation of its coactivator protein Yki. The role of mammalian Tead proteins in growth regulation, however, remains unknown. Here we examined the role of mouse Tead proteins in growth regulation. In NIH3T3 cells, cell density and Hippo signaling regulated the activity of Tead proteins by modulating nuclear localization of a Yki homologue, Yap, and the resulting change in Tead activity altered cell proliferation. Tead2-VP16 mimicked Yap overexpression, including increased cell proliferation, reduced cell death, promotion of EMT, lack of cell contact inhibition, and promotion of tumor formation. Growth promoting activities of various Yap mutants correlated with their Tead-coactivator activities. Tead2-VP16 and Yap regulated largely overlapping sets of genes. However, only a few of the Tead/Yapregulated genes in NIH3T3 cells were affected in Tead1-/-;Tead2-/- or Yap-/- embryos. Most of the previously identified Yap-regulated genes were not affected in NIH3T3 cells or mutant mice. In embryos, levels of nuclear Yap and Tead1 varied depending on cell types. Strong nuclear accumulation of Yap and Tead1 were seen in myocardium, correlating with requirements of Tead1 for proliferation. However, their distribution did not always correlate with proliferation. Taken together, mammalian Tead proteins regulate cell proliferation and contact inhibition as a transcriptional mediator of Hippo signaling, but the mechanisms by which Tead/Yap regulate cell proliferation differ depending on cell types, and Tead, Yap and Hippo signaling may play multiple roles in mouse embryos.

Description
The expression of four transcription factors (OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4, and c-MYC) can reprogram mouse as well as human somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Expression of the c-MYC, also known as an oncogene, might induce carcinogenesis and thus, iPS cells produced with the use of c-MYC transduction cannot be used for human therapeutic applications. Furthermore, reprogramming efficiency was significantly reduced in the absence of c-MYC transduction. Here, we generated iPS cells from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from human third molars (wisdom teeth) by retroviral transduction of OCT3/4, SOX2, and KLF4 without c-MYC. Interestingly, clonally expanded MSCs, named 10F-15, could be used for iPS cell generation with 100-fold higher efficiency compared to that of other clonally expanded MSCs and human dermal fibroblasts. These iPS cells resembled human embryonic stem (ES) cells in many aspects, including morphology, ES markers expression, global gene expression, epigenetic states, and the ability to differentiate into the three germ layers in vitro and in vivo. Because human third molars are discarded as clinical waste, our data indicate that MSCs isolated from human third molars are a valuable cell source for the generation of iPS cells.

Description
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have the unique property of immortality, ability to infinitely self-renew and survive in vitro. In contrast to tumor-deribed cells, their immortality are free from any genomic abberations. Instead, they depend on the AKAP-Lbc/Rho signaling cascade. To understand the downstream way, we performed RNA-seq analyses between normal and AKAP-Lbc-depleted hESCs using the doxycyclin-inducible gene silensing strategy. Overall design: We use the genetically modified hESCs in which AKAP-13-targeting shRNA is induced by doxycyclin(dox) treatment. To minimize cell loss during treatment, anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-XL is overexpressed. We collected RNA from dox-treated and untreated cells in biological triplicate. We measured gene expression in these 2 sample groups using RNA-seq (illumina HiSeq) .

Description
Genome instability is a potential limitation to the research and therapeutic application of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Observed genomic variations reflect the combined activities of DNA damage, cellular DNA damage response (DDR), and selection pressure in culture. To understand the contribution of DDR on the distribution of copy number variations (CNVs) in iPSCs, we mapped CNVs of iPSCs with mutations in the central DDR gene ATM onto genome organization landscapes defined by genome-wide replication timing profiles. We show that following reprogramming the early and late replicating genome is differentially affected by CNVs in ATM deficient iPSCs relative to wild type iPSCs. Specifically, the early replicating regions had increased CNV losses during retroviral reprogramming. This differential CNV distribution was not present after later passage or after episomal reprogramming. Comparison of different reprogramming methods in the setting of defective DNA damage response reveals unique vulnerability of early replicating open chromatin to retroviral vectors.

Description
Embryonic stem (ES) cells have a remarkable capacity to self-organize complex, multi-layered optic cups in vitro via a culture technique called SFEBq. During both SFEBq and in vivo optic cup development, Rax (Rx) expressing neural retina epithelial (NRE) tissues utilize Fgf and Wnt/ß-catenin signalling pathways to differentiate into neural retina (NR) and retinal-pigmented epithelial (RPE) tissues, respectively. How these signaling pathways affect gene expression during optic tissue formation has remained largely unknown, especially at the transcriptome scale. Overall design: We generated Day 10 Rx+ optic tissue using SFEBq, exposed these tissues to either Fgf or Wnt/ß-catenin stimulation, and assayed their gene expression at Days 12 and 15 using RNA-Seq. We measured gene expression in these 5 sample groups in biological triplicate using RNA-seq (Illumina HiSeq) .
