Description
Analysis of chromatin architecture suggests that the 3D structure of the genome plays a major role in regulating gene expression, orchestrating the compartmentalization of chromatin and facilitating specific enhancer-promoter interactions. However, the mechanisms that control this structuring of the genome are not fully understood. We have addressed this issue by analyzing the role of CTCF, a major architectural factor in chromatin structure, in the embryonic heart. Loss of CTCF triggered an overall downregulation of the cardiac developmental program, suggesting that CTCF facilitates enhancer-promoter interactions in the developing heart. Detailed analysis of the IrxA gene cluster showed that CTCF loss leads to disruption of the heart-specific regulatory domain that surrounds Irx4, resulting in changes in expression of IrxA cluster genes and neighboring genes. In contrast to the critical role proposed for CTCF in organizing large-scale chromatin domains, our results show that CTCF preferentially mediates local regulatory interactions. Overall design: RNAseq of mouse embryonic E10.5 hearts in three conditions: 1) control (labeled as WT), 2) heterozygous (labeled as HET) and 3) homozygous (labeled as KO). Three replicates were performed for each condition, each consisting of a pool of 6 hearts. Tissue was mechanically disaggregated and RNA extracted with trizol and purified through columns.

Description
Heart failure (HF) is a major health and economic burden in developed countries. It has been proposed that the pathogenesis of HF may involve the action of mitochondria. Here we evaluate three different models of HF: tachycardiomyopathy, HF with preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, and LV myocardial ischemia and hypertrophy. Regardless of whether LVEF is preserved or reduced, our results indicate that the three models share common molecular features: an increase in mitochondrial ROS, followed by ultrastructural alterations in the mitochondrial cristae and loss of mitochondrial integrity that lead to cardiomyocyte death. We show that the ablation of the mitochondrial protease OMA1 averts cardiomyocyte death in all three experimental HF models, and thus, plays a direct role in cardiomyocyte protection. This finding identifies OMA1 as a potential target for preventing the progression of myocardial damage in HF associated to a variety of etiologies. Overall design: Transcriptome analysis of 12-week-old wild type mice versus OMA1 KO mice under control (non-treated) or treated with Isoproterenol chronically (implanted minipumps) for 7 days in heart tissue. The nuclear genetic background for both genotypes is C57BL/6JOlaHsd.

Description
We postulate here that the two singular characteristics of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system—the integration of three potentially antagonistic functions in the same structure and the double genetic origin of the components that assemble together in these molecular machines—make the evolution of an optimal system impossible. As a consequence the system is intrinsically mismatched and has to be continuously monitored, Adjusted and regulated in order to achieve the necessary and variable performance. Systematic transcriptomic, Metabolomic and biochemical evaluation of animals with identical nuclear DNA but different mtDNA haplotype strongly support the existence of intrinsic mismatch and reveals profound lifelong metabolic consequences on reactive oxygen species generation, Insulin signaling, Tendency towards obesity, And healthy ageing parameters, Including telomere atresia Overall design: Transcriptome analysis of conplastic mice versus WT mice in Liver and Heart tissues Conplastic strains were obtained after 10 generations of backcrossing to create a new line harboring the nuclear genome of one strain and the mtDNA of another (C57BL/6 and NZB were purchased from Harlan Laboratories).

Description
Our study aims to analyze time-dependent changes in neutrophil phenotype, compare them with included neutrophil-specific mutants, and indentify common signatures among the 5 groups Overall design: Blood neutrophils from wild-type and mutants were isolated based on Ly6G staining, then standard RNA extraction procedures were performed. Wild-type samples were extracted at ZT5 and ZT13, all other samples at ZT5.

Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Here, we examined the role of intestinal epithelial specific tumor suppressive function of 53. We provide evidence that p53 plays a dual role during carcinogen-induced tumorigenesis. At the initiation stage, p53 controls DNA damage and survival of initiated epithelia. In contrast, at later stages, loss of p53 is associated with the formation of an inflammatory microenvironment that is linked to epithelial mesenchymal transition, invasion and metastasis and the activation of NF-kappaB and Stat3. Thus, we propose a novel p53 controlled tumor suppressive function during the progression stage of colorectal cancer that is independent of its well-established role in cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and senescence.

Using fluorescence activated cell sorting, we isolated CD45+, CSF1R-GFP+, F4/80+, Ly6G- mouse lung monocytes and macrophages at 7 days after pneumonectomy procedure. We then used microfluidic single cell RNA-sequencing to transcriptional profile unique myeloid subsets. Using the pneumonectomy dataset, we identified 6 cell groups and 4 gene groups that marked several regenerative macrophage subsets including CCR2+, Ly6C+ monocytes and CD206+, Chil3+ M2-like macrophages.
