Description
Cell-autonomous circadian oscillations strongly influence tissue physiology and pathophysiology of peripheral organs. Recent in vivo findings in the heart demonstrate that the circadian clock controls oscillatory gene expression programs in the adult myocardium. However, whether in vitro human embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived cardiomyocytes can establish circadian rhythmicity is unknown. Here we report that while undifferentiated human ES cells do not possess a functional clock, oscillatory expression of known core clock genes emerges during directed cardiac differentiation, with robust rhythms in day 30 cardiomyocytes. Our data reveal a stress related oscillatory network of genes that underlies a time-dependent response to doxorubicin, a frequently used anti-cancer drug with cardiotoxic side effects. These results provide a set of oscillatory genes that is relevant to functional cardiac studies and that can be deployed to uncover the potential contribution of the clock to other processes such as cardiac regeneration. Overall design: Human embryonic stem cells (ES cells) were differentiated via a directed differentiation protocol in vitro towards cardiomyocytes for a period of 30 days. Cardiomyocytes were synchronized with dexamethasone and triplicate samples for RNA extraction and sequencing were taken every 4 hours for 48 hours in total. RNA was then extracted using TRIzol, barcoded and amplified following the CEL-Seq protocol.

Description
Noncoding variants play a central role in the genetics of complex traits, but we still lack a full description of the main molecular pathways through which they act. Here we used molecular data to quantify the contribution of cis-acting genetic effects at each major stage of gene regulation from chromatin to proteins, within a population sample of Yoruba lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs). We performed 4sU metabolic labeled transcripts in 65 YRI LCLs to identify genetic variants that affect transcription rates. As expected, we found an important contribution of genetic variation via chromatin, contributing ~65% of eQTLs (expression Quantitative Trait Loci). The remaining eQTLs, which are not asso- ciated with chromatin-level variation, are highly enriched in transcribed regions, and hence may affect expression through co- or post-transcriptional processes. Overall design: International HapMap lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) derived from YRI (Yoruba in Ibadan, Nigeria); We adapted the 4sU labelling method from (PMID 21516085). Briefly, cell cultures were grown to log phase in volumes sufficient to yield about 300 ng of 4sU-labeled RNA. Cells were incubated with 4sU for the required length of time (0, 30, or 60 minutes), then washed, pelleted, and frozen. Total RNA was extracted, and 4sU-labeled RNA was separated from total RNA using a bead-based biotin-streptavidin purification protocol. We sequenced metabolic labeled transcripts in 65 YRI LCLs 30 minutes and 60 minutes after incubation.

Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
HRE1 and HRE2 are two ERF transcription factors induced by low oxygen. In this work we analyzed the effect of ectopic expression of HRE1 and HRE2 on the arabidopsis transcriptome in aerobic and hypoxic (1% O2) conditions. While HRE1 has a moderate effect on the expression of anaerobic genes under hypoxia, HRE2 does not affect them either under aerobic or hypoxic conditions.

Description
- Background and Aims: Oxygen can fall to low concentrations within plant tissues, either because of environmental factors that decrease the external oxygen concentration or because the movement of oxygen through the plant tissues cannot keep pace with the rate of oxygen consumption. Recent studies document that plants can decrease their oxygen consumption in response to relative small changes in oxygen concentrations to avoid internal anoxia. The molecular mechanisms underlying this response have not been identified yet. The aim of this study was to use transcript and metabolite profiling to investigate the genomic response of Arabidopsis roots to a mild decrease in oxygen concentrations.

Comparison of mRNA expression profiles of LT-HSCs with or without mutations in JAK2 and Ezh2 by RNA sequencing. LT-HSC mRNA was extracted from six different transgenic mice (SclCre, SclCre;Ezh2+/-, SclCre;Ezh2-/-, SclCre; JAK2V617F, SclCre; JAK2V617F;Ezh2+/-, SclCre; JAK2V617F;Ezh2-/-) 10 weeks after tamoxifen injection. Our study represents the first detailed analysis of mRNA expression profile of LT-HSC with or without mutations in JAK2 and Ezh2 , with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. Our results revealed that mRNA expression profile of LT-HSC with different genotype showed specific gene expression patterns, which allows to do biological comprehensive and quantitative analysis for hematopoiesis. Overall design: LT-HSCs mRNA profiles six different transgenic mice (SclCre, SclCre;Ezh2+/-, SclCre;Ezh2-/-, SclCre; JAK2V617F, SclCre; JAK2V617F;Ezh2+/-, SclCre; JAK2V617F;Ezh2-/-) were generated by deep sequencing.

Description
Floodings already have a nearly 60% share in the worldwide damage to crops provoked by natural disasters. Climate change will cause plants to be even more frequently exposed to oxygen limiting conditions (hypoxia) in the near future due to heavy precipitation and concomitant waterlogging or flooding events in large areas of the world. Although the homeostatic regulation of adaptive responses to low oxygen stress in plants is well described, it remained unknown by which initial trigger the molecular response to low-oxygen stress is activated. Here, we show that a hypoxia-induced decline of the ATP level of the cell reduces LONG-CHAIN ACYL-COA SYNTHETASE (LACS) activity, which leads to a shift in the composition of the acyl-CoA pool. High oleoyl-CoA levels release the transcription factor RELATED TO APETALA 2.12 (RAP2.12) from its interaction partner ACYL-COA BINDING PROTEIN (ACBP) at the plasma membrane to induce low oxygen-specific gene expression. We show that different acyl-CoAs provoke unique molecular responses revealing a novel role as cellular signalling component also in plants. In terms of hypoxia signalling, dynamic acyl-CoA levels integrate the cellular energy status into the oxygen signalling cascade with ACBP and RAP2.12 being the central hub. The conserved nature of the ACBP:RAP2.12 module in crops and the novel mechanistic understanding of how low-oxygen stress responses are initiated by oleoyl-CoA in plants provide useful leads for enhancing future food security. Overall design: 1 control and 3 treatments with different forms of acyl-CoA in triplicate biological replicates

Description
Purpose: The goal of the present study is to provide an independent assessment of the retinal transcriptome signatures of the C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (D2) mice and to enhance existing microarray datasets for accurately defining the allelic differences in the BXD recombinant inbred strains. Methods: Retinas from both B6 and D2 mice (3 of each) were used for the RNA-seq analysis. Transcriptome features were examined for both strains. Differentially expressed genes between the 2 strains were identified and bioinformatic analysis was performed to analyze the transcriptome differences between B6 and D2 strains, including Gene ontology (GO) analysis, Phenotype and Reactome enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis. The RNA-seq data were then directly compared with one of the microarray datasets (DoD Retina Normal Affy MoGene 2.0 ST RMA Gene Level Microarray Database) hosted on GeneNetwork (www.genenetwork.org). Results: RNA-seq provided an in-depth analysis of the transcriptome of the B6 and D2 retina with a total of more than 30,000,000 reads per sample. Over 70% of the reads were uniquely mapped, resulting in a total of 18,100 gene counts for all 6 samples. 1,665 genes were differentially expressed, with 858 of these more highly expressed in B6 and 807 more highly expressed in D2. Several molecular pathways were differentially active between the two strains, including the retinoic acid metabolic process, endoplasmic reticulum lumen, extracellular matrix organization, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. The most enriched KEGG pathways were the pentose and glucuronate interconversions pathway, the cytochrome P450 pathway, protein digestion and absorption pathway and the ECM-receptor interaction pathway. Each of these pathways had a more than 4-fold enrichment. The DoD normal retina microarray database provided expression profiling for 26,191 annotated transcripts for B6 mouse, D2 mouse and 53 BXD strains. A total of 13,793 genes in this microarray dataset were comparable to the RNA-seq dataset. For both B6 and D2, the RNA-seq data and microarray data were highly correlated with each other (Pearson's r = 0.780 for B6 and 0.784 for D2). Our results suggest that the microarray dataset can reliably detect differentially expressed genes between the B6 and D2 retinas, with a positive predictive value of 45.6%, and a negative predictive value of 93.6%. Examples of true positive and false positive genes are provided. Conclusions: Retinal transcriptome features of B6 and D2 mouse strains provide a useful reference for a better understanding of the mouse retina. Generally, the microarray database presented on GeneNetwork shows good agreement with the RNA-seq data, while we note that any allelic difference between B6 and D2 should be verified with the latter. Overall design: Retinal mRNA profiles of 2 strains of mice, C57BL/6J and DBA/2J, were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA kit.
