Description
C/EBPa induces transdifferentiation of B cells into macrophages at high efficiencies and enhances reprogramming into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) when co-expressed with Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and Myc (OSKM). However, how C/EBPa accomplishes these effects is unclear. We now found that transient C/EBPa expression followed by OSKM activation induces a 100 fold increase in iPSC reprogramming efficiency, involving 95% of the cells. During this conversion pluripotency and epithelial-mesenchymal transition genes become dramatically up-regulated and 60% of the cells express Oct4 within 2 days. C/EBPa acts as a pathbreaker since it transiently makes the chromatin of pluripotency genes more accessible to DNase I. It also induces the expression of the dioxygenase Tet2 and promotes its translocation to the nucleus where it binds to regulatory regions of pluripotency genes that become demethylated following OSKM induction. In line with these findings, overexpression of Tet2 enhances OSKM-induced B cell reprogramming. Since the enzyme is also required for efficient C/EBPa-induced immune cell conversion, our data suggest that Tet2 provides a mechanistic link between iPSC reprogramming and B cell transdifferentiation. The rapid iPS reprogramming approach described should help to fully elucidate the process and has potential clinical applications. Overall design: Change in gene expression, comparing primary B-cells treated with estradiol for 18h to induce C/EBPa to untreated cells.

Description
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) play increasingly appreciated gene-regulatory roles. Here, we describe a regulatory network centered on four ncRNAs—a long ncRNA, a circular RNA, and two microRNAs—using gene editing in mice to probe the molecular consequences of disrupting key components of this network. The long ncRNA Cyrano uses an extensively paired site to miR-7 to trigger destruction of this microRNA. Cyrano-directed miR-7 degradation is much more efficient than previously described examples of target-directed microRNA degradation, which come primarily from studies of artificial and viral RNAs. By reducing miR-7 levels, Cyrano prevents repression of miR-7–targeted mRNAs and enables the accumulation of Cdr1as, a circular RNA known to regulate neuronal activity. Without Cyrano, excess miR-7 causes cytoplasmic destruction of Cdr1as, in part through enhanced slicing of Cdr1as by a second miRNA, miR-671. Thus, several types of ncRNAs can collaborate to establish a sophisticated regulatory network. Overall design: mRNA expression profiling by RNA-seq of 10 tissues from wild-type (WT) and Cyrano–/– (CyrKO) mice. This study consists of 96 polyA-selected unstranded Tru-seq libraries prepared from 4–6 biological replicates per genotype for each tissue.

This study consists of 33 polyA-selected stranded NEXTflex libraries prepared from 3-4 biological replicates for each tissue and each genotype. To minimize batch effects, libraries for wild-type tissues were prepared and sequenced for each experiment and only intra-experiment comparisons were made.

Description
We have discovered subsets of axon guidance molecules and transcription factors that are enriched in specific subsets of olfactory sensory neurons. We have demonstrated guidance activity for three of the candidate axon guidance genes we identified, suggesting that this approach is an efficient method for characterizing guidance systems relevant to olfactory axon targeting. Overall design: Single-cell RNASeq of OMP-expressing olfactory sensory neurons was performed by capture on Fluidigm-C1 followed by sequencing on Illumina HiSeq2500

Description
Recent studies have reported that competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) can act as sponges for a miRNA through their binding sites and that changes in ceRNA abundances from individual genes can modulate the miRNA’s activity. Consideration of this hypothesis would benefit from knowing the quantitative relationship between a miRNA and its endogenous target sites. Here, we altered intracellular target-site abundance through expression of a miR-122 target in hepatocytes and livers, and analyzed the effects on miR-122 target genes. Target repression was released in a threshold-like manner at high target-site abundance (=1.5x10^5 added target sites per cell), and this threshold was insensitive to the effective levels of the miRNA. Furthermore, in response to extreme metabolic liver disease models, global target-site abundance of hepatocytes did not change sufficiently to affect miRNA-mediated repression. Thus, modulation of miRNA target abundance is unlikely to cause significant effects on gene expression and metabolism through a ceRNA effect. Overall design: Seventeen mRNA profiles were generated of 1) primary hepatocytes of mice expressing variable levels of a recombinant Adenovirus expressing the transcript of AldolaseA (Ad-AldoA), containing either 1 or 3 sites matching miR-122 or a mutated miR-122 site (no site), 2) primary hepatocytes derived from mice treated with Antagomir-122 (treatment group) or Antagomir-122mm (control group), 3) livers originating of a genetic model (Ldlr deficient mice) causing severe pathological changes in cholesterol metabolism, 4) livers of mice perfused with Insulin or PBS, and 5) livers of mice fed a high-fat or chow diet; most samples were sequenced in duplicate or triplicate by an Illumina HiSeq 2000. One small RNA profile was also generated from livers of mice fed a chow diet by Solexa sequencing.

Description
We used RNA-seq to compare the gene expression profiles of adult mouse prostate luminal cells and luminal cells that have the androgen receptor (AR) gene deleted. Our analyses show that AR-null luminal cells have altered expression levels of genes involved in cell-matrix adhesion, cytoskeleton regulation, and MAPK and TGF-beta signaling pathways. These results are consistent with our finding that AR-null luminal cells have abnormal cell morphology and loss of cell polarity. Overall design: Lineage marked wild-type luminal cells and AR-deleted luminal cells were flow-sorted based on YFP fluorescence respectively, and their expression profiles were analyzed by RNA-seq.

Description
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by autoimmune destruction of pancreatic ß cells. Mounting evidence supports a central role for ß-cell alterations in triggering the activation of self-reactive T-cells in T1D. However, the early deleterious events that occur in ß cells, underpinning islet autoimmunity are not known. We hypothesized that epigenetic modifications induced in ß cells by inflammatory mediators play a key role in initiating the autoimmune response. We analyzed DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns and gene expression in human islets exposed to IFNa, a cytokine associated with T1D development. We found that IFNa triggers DNA demethylation and increases expression of genes controlling inflammatory and immune pathways. We then demonstrated that DNA demethylation was caused by up-regulation of the exoribonuclease, PNPase Old-35 (PNPT1), which caused degradation of miR-26a. This in turn promoted the up-regulation of ten-eleven translocation TET2 enzyme and increased 5-hydoxymethylcytosine levels in human islets and pancreatic ß-cells. Moreover, we showed that specific IFNa expression in the ß cells of IFNa-INS1CreERT2 transgenic mice, led to development of T1D that was preceded by increased islet DNA hydroxymethylation through a PNPT1/TET2-dependent mechanism. Our results suggest a new mechanism through which IFNa regulates DNAm in ß cells, leading to changes in expression of genes in inflammatory and immune pathways that can initiate islet autoimmunity in T1D. Overall design: We exposed human pancreatic islets from three donors to 2000 IU IFNa and assessed gene expression by RNAseq. The cDNA library was prepared using Illumina TruSeq RNA Sample Prep Kits. Next generation sequencing was performed on Illumina HiSeq2000 using the Single-Read Cluster Generation kit v2 and SBS Sequencing kit v3. Image analysis and base calling were conducted using the SDS 2.5/RTA1.5 software.
