Description
CTSK-mGFP positive cells from Day 6 old mouse femurs were sorted as single cells into 384 well plates pre-loaded with unique barcoded RT-primers. After sorting, cells were snap frozen on dry ice before being submitted to the New York Genome Center (NYGC) for cDNA synthesis and library preparation. The FACS profile for all the sored cells were collected to co-relate with gene expression. Overall design: Mouse femur was obtained from mice within the same litter. Femur samples was subjected to collagenase digestion, and single cell suspension was obtained. The samples were stained for FACS antibodies and single cell sorting was performed into two individual 384 well plates. The experiment has two replicates from two independant animals. The samples were always kept discrete.

Description
We report that TAF3, a TBP-associated core promoter factor, is highly enriched in ES cells. In addition to its role in the core promoter recognition complex TFIID, genome-wide binding studies reveal that TAF3 localizes to chromosomal regions bound by CTCF and cohesin. Enrichment for TAF3/CTCF/cohesin bound regions distinguishes TAF3-activated from TAF3-repressed genes. Our findings support a new role of TAF3 in mediating long-range chromatin regulatory interactions to safeguard the finely-balanced transcriptional programs that give rise to pluripotency. Overall design: Comparison of genome-wide expression patterns between TAF3-knockdown and WT embryonic stem cells using mRNA-Seq. Significantly differentially expressed protein-coding genes were identified by comparing control and knock-down samples at each timepoint (ES, embryoid body day 3 (EB3), EB6). Single and paired-end samples were combined at each timepoint, resulting in 3 tests for each gene (based on 8, 4, 4 independent measurements at ES ,EB3, EB6, respectively).

Description
Motherhood involves a switch in natural rewards, whereby offspring become highly rewarding. Nucleus accumbens (NAC) is a key CNS region for natural rewards and addictions, but to date no study has evaluated on a large scale the events in NAC that underlie the maternal change in natural rewards. In this study we utilized microarray and bioinformatics approaches to evaluate postpartum NAC gene expression changes in mice. Modular Single-set Enrichment Test (MSET) indicated that postpartum (relative to virgin) NAC gene expression profile was significantly enriched for genes related to addiction and reward in 5 of 5 independently curated databases (e.g., Malacards, Phenopedia). Over 100 addiction/reward related genes were identified and these included: Per1, Per2, Arc, Homer2, Creb1, Grm3, Fosb, Gabrb3, Adra2a, Ntrk2, Cry1, Penk, Cartpt, Adcy1, Npy1r, Htr1a, Drd1a, Gria1, and Pdyn. ToppCluster analysis found maternal NAC expression profile to be significantly enriched for genes related to the drug action of nicotine, ketamine, and dronabinol. Pathway analysis indicated postpartum NAC as enriched for RNA processing, CNS development/differentiation, and transcriptional regulation. Weighted Gene Coexpression Network Analysis identified possible networks for transcription factors, including Nr1d1, Per2, Fosb, Egr1, and Nr4a1. The postpartum state involves increased risk for mental health disorders and MSET analysis indicated postpartum NAC to be enriched for genes related to depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Mental health related genes included: Fabp7, Grm3, Penk, and Nr1d1. We confirmed via quantitative PCR Nr1d1, Per2, Grm3, Penk, Drd1a, and Pdyn. This study indicates for the first time that postpartum NAC involves large scale gene expression alterations linked to addiction and reward. Because the postpartum state also involves decreased response to drugs, the findings could provide insights into how to mitigate addictions.

Description
The Wnt signaling pathway plays a fundamental role during the development of metazoans, where it functions in the regulation of diverse processes including cell fate specification, cell migration, and stem cell renewal. Activation of the beta-catenin dependent or canonical Wnt signaling pathway upregulates expression of Wnt target genes to mediate an appropriate cellular response. In the nematode C. elegans, a Wnt signaling pathway similar to the canonical pathway regulates several processes during larval development, however few target genes of this pathway have been identified. To address this deficit, we conditionally activated Wnt signaling in living animals during a defined stage of larval life by expressing a dominant, activated beta-catenin protein, then used microarray analysis to identify genes showing altered expression compared to control animals. In this way we identified 166 differentially expressed genes, of which 104 were upregulated. A subset of the upregulated genes were validated by qPCR and showed altered expression in Wnt pathway mutants with decreased or increased Wnt signaling; we consider these genes to be candidate Wnt pathway targets in the C. elegans hermaphrodite larva. Amongst these was a group of 6 genes, including the cuticular collagen genes, bli-1 col-38, col-49 and col-71, that show a peak of expression in the mid L4 stage during normal development. The L4 expression of these genes suggests they may be expressed for use in the adult cuticle, and consistent with this, reduction of function for several of the genes leads to phenotypes suggestive of defects in cuticle function or integrity. Therefore this work has identified a large number of putative Wnt pathway target genes during larval life, including a small subset of Wnt-regulated collagen genes that may function in synthesis of the adult cuticle.

Description
Coordinated gene expression changes across the CNS help to produce the mammalian maternal phenotype. Lateral septum (LS) is a brain region critically involved with aspects of maternal care, and we recently examined gene expression of whole septum (LS and medial septum) in selectively bred maternal mice. Here, we expand on the prior study by 1) conducting microarray analysis solely on LS in virgin and postpartum mice, 2) using outbred mice, and 3) evaluating the role of sensory input on gene expression changes. Large scale changes in genes related to neuronal signaling were identified, including nine GABAA receptor subunits (p<0.05). Subunits 4 and were downregulated in maternal LS, likely reflecting a reduction in the extrasynaptic, neurosteroid-sensitive 4/ containing receptor subtype. Conversely, subunits and were increased in maternal LS. Sixteen K+ channel related genes showed altered expression, as did dopamine receptors Drd1a and Drd2 (both downregulated), hypocretin receptor 1 (Hcrtr1), kappa opioid receptor 1 (Oprk1), and transient receptor potential channel 4 (Trpc4). Expression of a large number of genes linked to developmental processes or cell differentiation were also altered in postpartum LS, including chemokine (C-X-C) motif ligand 12 (Cxcl12), fatty acid binding protein 7 (Fabp7), plasma membrane proteolipid (Pllp), and suppressor of cytokine signaling 2 (Socs2). Additional genes that are linked to anxiety, such as glutathione reductase (Gsr), exhibited altered expression. Pathway analysis also identified changes in genes related to cyclic nucleotide metabolism, chromatin structure, and the Ras gene family. The sensory presence of pups was found to contribute to the altered expression of a subset of genes across all categories. This study suggests that both large changes in neuronal signaling and the possible terminal differentiation of neuronal and/or glial cells play important roles in producing the maternal state.
