Description

Nematode derived substances are known to down regulate host immune responses in order to survive in the human host. Brugia malayi is a parasitic nematode responsible for long lasting and disabling infection known as lymphatic filariasis in humans. The therapeutic benefit of a controlled parasitic nematode infection on the course of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been demonstrated in both animal and human models. However the inability of individual purified nematode proteins to recreate this beneficial effect has limited the application of component immunotherapy to human disease. This experiment addresses the hypothesis that the genes regulated by IL8 and recombinant Brugia malayi AsnRS (rBmAsnRS) are different even though it is known that both molecules interact with IL-8 receptors. Furthermore, we theorize that the signal transduction pathways activated by IL-8 and rBmAsnRS are different because it is known that the extracellular G protein loops utilized by IL-8 and rBmAsnRS to activate IL8 receptors, are different. These results obtained with a single recombinant nematode protein, rBmAsnRS, share immunological features with those observed in a whole nematode infection and include desirable features for treatment of idiopathic inflammatory diseases, such as IBD.

Dnmt1 is essential to maintain progenitors in the perinatal intestinal epithelium.
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 10 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIlluminaHiSeq2000

Description

We report that Dnmt1 is crucial during perinatal intestinal development. Loss of Dnmt1 in intervillus progenitor cells causes global hypomethylation, DNA damage, premature differentiation, and apoptosis, and consequently, loss of nascent villi. We further confirm the critical role for Dnmt1 during crypt development using the in vitro organoid culture system, and illustrate a clear differential requirement for Dnmt1 in immature versus mature organoids. These results demonstrate an essential role for Dnmt1 in maintaining genomic stability during intestinal development and the establishment of intestinal crypts. Overall design: We performed RNA-Seq of control and Dnmt1-ablated intestinal progenitor cells isolated from parrafin embedded tissues by laser capture microdissection (LCM).

Temporal analysis of hippocampus in kainate-induced seizures. Koh-7K08NS002068-05-3
  • organism-icon Rattus norvegicus
  • sample-icon 30 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Rat Genome U34 Array (rgu34a)

Description

Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common medically refractory epilepsy syndrome; kainic acid (KA) induced seizures have been studied as a MTLE model as limbic seizures produced by systemic injections of KA result in a distinctive pattern of neurodegeneration in the hippocampus that resembles human hippocampal sclerosis. In our "2-hit" seizure model, animals subjected to seizures during week 2 of life become more susceptible to seizures later in life and sustain extensive hippocampal neuronal injury after second KA seizures in adulthood. Using high-density oligonucleotide gene arrays, we began to elucidate the molecular basis of this priming effect of early-life seizures and of the age-specific neuroprotection against seizure-induced neuronal injury. We seek to identify target genes for epileptogenesis and cell death by selecting transcripts that are differentially regulated at various times in the P15 and P30 hippocampus.

  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Rat Genome U34 Array (rgu34a)

Description

Early childhood convulsions have been correlated with hippocampal neuron loss in patients with intractable temporal lobe epilepsy. Using a "two-hit" rat seizure model, we have shown that animals subjected to kainate (KA)- or hypoxia-induced seizures during early postnatal period showed no cell death, yet sustained more extensive neuronal death after second seizures in adulthood. An early life seizure, without causing overt cellular injury, predisposes the brain to the damaging effect of seizures in later life. Cellular and molecular changes that accompany early seizures and that lead to subsequent epileptogenesis and increased susceptibility to seizure-induced neuronal injury, however, remain poorly understood. We propose to investigate age-specific, time-dependent changes in gene expression that may underlie this priming effect of early-life seizures.

RNA-seq of hippocampus from wild type and CTCF cko animals
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 6 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge IconIllumina HiSeq 2500

Description

CTCF is an organizer of higher-order chromatin structure, and regulates gene expression. Genetic studies have implicated mutations in CTCF in intellectual disabilities. However, there is no knowledge of the role of CTCF-mediated chromatin structure in learning and memory. We show that depletion of CTCF in postmitotic neurons, or depletion in the hippocampus of adult mice through viral-mediated knockout, induces deficits in learning and memory. These deficits in learning and memory at the beginning of adulthood are correlated with impaired long term potentiation and reduced spine density, with no changes in basal synaptic transmission and dendritic morphogenesis and arborization. Cognitive disabilities are associated with downregulation of cadherin and learning-related genes. In addition, CTCF knockdown attenuates fear conditioning-induced hippocampal gene expression of key learning genes and loss of long-range interactions at the BDNF and Arc loci. This study identifies CTCF-dependent gene expression regulation and DNA structure as regulators of learning and memory. Overall design: 3 biological replicates of wild type and 3 biological replicates of CTCF cko mice

  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array (hgu133a2)

Description

Background: Obesity is a risk factor for breast cancer in postmenopausal women and is associated with decreased survival and less favorable clinical characteristics such as greater tumor burden, higher grade, and poor prognosis, regardless of menopausal status. Despite the negative impact of obesity on clinical outcome, molecular mechanisms through which excess adiposity influences breast cancer etiology are not well-defined.

Gene expression profile of Dicer knockout in mouse DP thymocytes
  • organism-icon Mus musculus
  • sample-icon 6 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)

Description

The RNase III enzyme dicer is essential for the processing of microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) from double-stranded RNA precursors. miRNAs and siRNAs regulate chromatin structure, gene transcription, mRNA stability and translation in a wide range of organisms. To provide a model system to explore the role of dicer-generated RNAs in the differentiation of mammalian cells in vivo, we have generated a conditional dicer allele. Deletion of dicer at an early stage of T cell development compromised the survival of lineage cells, while the numbers of -expressing thymocytes were not affected. In developing thymocytes, dicer was not required for the maintenance of transcriptional silencing at pericentromeric satellite sequences (constitutive heterochromatin), the maintenance of cytosine DNA methylation and X chromosome inactivation in female cells (facultative heterochromatin) and the stable shutdown of a developmentally regulated gene (developmentally regulated gene silencing). Most remarkably, given that one-third of mammalian mRNAs are putative miRNA targets, dicer appears to be dispensable for CD4/8 lineage commitment, a process where epigenetic regulation of lineage choice has been well documented. Thus, although dicer appears critical for the development of the early embryo, it may have limited impact on the implementation of lineage-specific gene expression programs.

BCL6 target genes in a Burkitt's lymphoma cell line with inducible BCL6 expression.
  • organism-icon Homo sapiens
  • sample-icon 4 Downloadable Samples
  • Technology Badge Icon Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)

Description

In order to determine BCL6 target genes an EBV negative Burkitt's lymphoma cell line, DG75, was stably transfected with a tetracycline transactivator and tight doxycycline responsive expression of GFP was established. The endogenous BCL6 genes of this cell line were disrupted by homologous recombination and a BCL6 cDNA downstream of tetracycline responsive elements (TRE) was inserted to produce Bcl6-/-:tetBCL6-HA cells. Westerns demonstrated doxycycline dependent BCL6 expression.Bcl6-/-:tet. BCL6-HA cells (clone AB7) were either grown without doxycycline (control) or with 1 ug/ml doxycycline for 16, 48 or 96 hours. Total RNA was extracted using RNeasy minipreps (Qiagen) and concentration and quality were checked on the NanoDrop ND- 1000 spectrophotometer (NanoDrop Technologies, USA) and the RNA Nano 6000 kit (Agilent Technologies) on a 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies). One hundred ng of total RNA was processed with the GeneChip Eukaryotic Whole Transcript Sense Target Labelling Assay kit (Affymetrix) according to the manufacturer's details. Hybridisation and scanning of GeneChips was carried out at the CSC/IC Microarray Centre, MRC Clinical Sciences Centre Imperial College London and data analysis by Bioinformatics Support Service, Imperial College London. Briefly, pre- processing of data was performed using GeneSpring GX 10.0.2 software (Agilent Technologies) which applied the "Exon RMA16" algorhithm to the data set. Exon RMA16 performs background correction, quantile normalisation, median polish summarisation and variance stabilisation of 16. In background correction, intensity values of each individual array are corrected for non-specific binding by subtracting the average signal intensity of the area between spots from each probe set. Normalisation is required so multiple chips can be compared to each other. Quantile normalisation adjusts the distribution of probe intensity of each array analysed and so that the distribution of probe intensities for each array in a set of arrays is the same. Probe summarisation refers to the conversion of probe level values (there are approximately 26 probes per gene on each GeneChip) to a single probe set expression value. Variance stabilisation of 16 refers to the addition of the value 16 to the expression values. By increasing the expression value, the variance of the data set is reduced and the distribution (defined by its mean and its variance) is stabilised.
