View SamplesMelanoma is a highly aggressive cancer with increasing incidence rates and a poor survival, particularly in patients with AJCC stage IV and advanced stage III. Deregulation of NF-kB is linked to different pathological states, including melanoma. To identify the involvement of NF-kB pathway regulation in melanoma progression, we manipulated NF-kB pathway activation and profiled gene expression using RNA-sequencing. Overall design: mRNA profiles of IM-0223 cells overexpressing KPC1 (KPC1) or control (V0) generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2500.

View SamplesWe identified that downregulation of RNF20/H2Bub1 is involved in HGSOC progression through altering key immune signaling pathways. The goal of this RNA-seq is to analyze gene expression profile in FTSEC cells (FT190 and FT194 cell lines) with RNF20 knockdown (shRNF20) or control shRNA. Integrating the data from ATAC-seq for same samples, we observed that expression of immune signaling pathways have significantly changed by RNF20/H2Bub1 downregulation. Overall design: mRNA profiles of FT190 and FT194 shRNF20 (RNF20 knockdown) or control shRNA cells were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2500, in triplicate.

View SamplesArgonaute (Ago) proteins, which act in post-transcriptional gene regulation directed by small RNAs, are vital for normal stem cell biology. Here we report the genomic characterization of stable Ago-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC) and determine the direct, primary and system level response to loss of Ago-mediated regulation. We find mESCs lacking all four Ago proteins are viable, do not repress microRNA (miRNA)-targeted cellular RNAs, and show distinctive gene network signatures. Profiling of RNA expression and epigenetic activity in an Ago mutant genetic series indicates that early responses to Ago loss are driven by transcriptional regulatory networks, in particular the Tgf-ß/Smad transcriptional network. This finding is confirmed using a time course analysis of Ago depletion and Ago rescue experiments. Detailed analysis places Tgf-ß/Smad activation upstream of cell cycle regulator activation, such as Cdkn1a, and repression of the c-Myc transcriptional network. The Tgf-ß/Smad pathway is directly controlled by multiple low-affinity miRNA interactions with Tgf-ß/Activin receptor mRNAs and receptor-mediated activation is required for Tgf-ß/Smad target induction with Ago loss. Our characterization reveals the interplay of post-transcriptional regulatory pathways with transcriptional networks in maintaining cell state and likely coordinating cell state transitions. Overall design: mRNA seq from stable genetic Dicer and Dgcr8 mutant mouse embryonic stem cells.

View SamplesPurpose: The purpose of this experiment is to expand the repertoire of C. elegans edited transcripts and identify the roles of ADR-1 as indirect regulator of editing and ADR-2 as the only active deaminase in vivo. Methods: Strand-specific RNA sequencing of wild-type and adr mutant worms, followed by a novel RNA variant calling and comparative analysis pipeline. Results: Despite lacking deaminase function, ADR-1 affects editing of over 60 adenosines within the 3’ UTRs of 16 different mRNAs. Furthermore, ADR-1 interacts directly with ADR-2 substrates, even in the absence of ADR-2; and mutations within its dsRNA binding domains abolished both binding and editing regulation. Conclusions: ADR-1 acts as a major regulator of editing by binding ADR-2 substrates in vivo and raises the possibility that other dsRNA binding proteins, including the inactive human ADARs, regulate RNA editing by deaminase-independent mechanisms. Overall design: Strand-specific RNA sequencing of wild-type and adr mutant worms, followed by a novel RNA variant calling and comparative analysis pipeline.
The dsRBP and inactive editor ADR-1 utilizes dsRNA binding to regulate A-to-I RNA editing across the C. elegans transcriptome.

View SamplesV600E being the most common mutation in BRAF, leads to constitutive activation of the MAPK signaling pathway. The majority of V600E BRAF positive melanoma patients treated with the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib showed initial good clinical responses but relapsed due to acquired resistance to the drug. The aim of the present study was to identify possible biomarkers associated with the emergence of drug resistant melanoma cells. To this end we analyzed the differential gene expression of vemurafenib-sensitive and vemurafenib resistant brain and lung metastasizing melanoma cells.
Vemurafenib resistance selects for highly malignant brain and lung-metastasizing melanoma cells.

View SamplesLIN28 is a conserved RNA binding protein implicated in pluripotency, reprogramming and oncogenesis. Previously shown to act primarily by blocking let-7 microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis, here we elucidate distinct roles of LIN28 regulation via its direct messenger RNA (mRNA) targets. Through cross-linking and immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput sequencing (CLIP-seq) in human embryonic stem cells and somatic cells expressing exogenous LIN28, we have defined discrete LIN28 binding sites in a quarter of human transcripts. These sites revealed that LIN28 binds to GGAGA sequences enriched within loop structures in mRNAs, reminiscent of its interaction with let-7 miRNA precursors. Among LIN28 mRNA targets, we found evidence for LIN28 autoregulation and also direct but differing effects on the protein abundance of splicing regulators in somatic and pluripotent stem cells. Splicing-sensitive microarrays demonstrated that exogenous LIN28 expression causes widespread downstream alternative splicing changes. These findings identify important regulatory functions of LIN28 via direct mRNA interactions. Overall design: CLIP-seq for LIN28-V5 in stable human Flp-In-293 cells, and LIN28 in hES cells; strand-specific mRNA-seq for uninfected, control KD, and LIN28 KD human H9 ES cells; and strand-specific smallRNA-seq for uninfected, control KD, and LIN28 KD human H9 ES cells.
