View SamplesPTIP (Pax2 transactivation domain-interacting protein) is a nuclear protein containing six BRCT domains. It has been shown that PTIP affects gene expression by controlling the activity of the transcription factor Pax2 and histone H3 lysine 4 methyltransferase complexes. In addition to its role in transcriptional regulation, PTIP has been implicated in DNA damage response. To ask if the depletion of PTIP affects the expression level of genes encoding DNA damage response factors , we compared the whole transcripts between wild-type and PTIP deficient chicken DT40 B cell lines.
PTIP promotes DNA double-strand break repair through homologous recombination.

View SamplesGlioma initiating cells (GICs) are considered responsible for the therapeutic resistance and recurrence of malignant glioma. To clarify the molecular mechanism of GIC maintenance/differentiation, we established GIC clones from GBM patient tumors having the potential to differentiate into malignant gliomas in mouse intracranial xenograft, and established an in vitro glioma induction system by using serum stimulation.
Glioma initiating cells form a differentiation niche via the induction of extracellular matrices and integrin αV.

View SamplesGrowing evidences are suggesting that extra-long genes in mammals are vulnerable for full-gene length transcription and dysregulation of long genes is a mechanism underlying human genetic disorders. Skeletal muscle expresses Dystrophin which is 2.26 Mbp in length; however, how long-distance transcription is achieved is totally unknown. We had discovered RNA-binding protein SFPQ preferentially binds to long pre-mRNAs and specifically regulates the cluster of neuronal genes > 100 kbp. Here we investigated the roles of SFPQ for long gene expression, target specificities, and also physiological functions in skeletal muscle. Loss of Sfpq selectively downregulated genes >100 kbp including Dystrophin and caused progressive muscle mass reduction and metabolic myopathy characterized by glycogen accumulation and decreased abundance of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation complexes. Functional clustering analysis identified metabolic pathway related genes as the targets of SFPQ. These findings indicate target gene specificities and tissue-specific physiological functions of SFPQ in skeletal muscle. Overall design: We analyzed polyA-tailed RNA profiles including transcribing RNAs in gastrocnemius skeletal muscle ( from 3 control and 3 Sfpq-/- P35 male mice) using Ion-proton.

View SamplesWe collected and compared samples from the cohort consisted of six groups as follows: methotrexate (MTX) monotherapy, combination therapy of MTX and infliximab (IFX), tocilizumab (TCZ) monotherapy, age- and gender-matched HC, and a small number of synovial fluid samples. In order to reduce variation due to the proportion of cells at each developmental stage, we performed transcriptome analysis after sorting CD4+ and CD8+ T cells according to developmental stage. We created a gene list that was significantly expressed in RA T cells, and revealed that pathways such as mTORC1, IL-2-stat5, Cell cycle and interferon-related genes were significantly enriched among them.
