Our findings demonstrate that CDCP1 is a novel modulator of HER2 signalling, and a biomarker for the stratification of breast cancer patients with poor prognosis
Interaction of CDCP1 with HER2 enhances HER2-driven tumorigenesis and promotes trastuzumab resistance in breast cancer.

View SamplesIn the following experiment, three different hESC cell lines (HES2, MEL1 and H9) were grown in the presence of KOSR, KOSR or mTESR containing media respectively. KOSR (Knockout serum replacement medium) is a standard media allowing the growth of hESC without the need for manual passaging - Enzymatic passaging is used instread. mTESR (Ludwig et al., 2007) is a media allowing the growth of hESC on matrigel with enzymatic passaging. At day 7 after passaging, these cells were FACs sorted for the presence of GCTM-2 and CD9 into 4 distinct fractions (p4: GCTM-2-neg, CD9-neg; p5: GCTM-2-low, CD9-low; p6: GCTM-2-medium, CD9-medium and p7: GCTM-2-high, CD9-high). For each cell line-subfraction combination, RNA was harvested and subject to microarray.

View SamplesThe role of post-transcriptional gene regulation in human brain development and cognitive diseases remains mostly uncharacterized. ELAV-like RNA binding proteins are a family of proteins that regulate several aspects of neuronal function including neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission. Here, we identify the downstream transcriptional networks of ELAVL2, an RNA-binding protein with unknown function in the brain. We knockdown expression of ELAVL2 in human neurons and conduct RNA-sequencing, identifying networks of differentially expressed and alternatively spliced genes with altered ELAVL2. These networks contain autism-relevant genes as well as previously identified targets of other RNA binding proteins implicated in autism spectrum disorders such as RBFOX1 and FMRP. ELAVL2-regulated coexpression networks are also enriched for synaptic genes as well as genes with human-specific patterns of gene expression in the frontal pole. Together, these data suggest that ELAVL2 regulation of transcript expression is critical for neuronal functions at risk in autism spectrum disorders and such mechanisms of post-transcriptional gene regulation may have contributed to human brain evolution. Overall design: We carried out RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of human neural progenitors cells. For the RNA-seq, 5 indipendent replicates were used for the neural progenitor cells. Primary human neural progenitor cultures were derived from mid-gestation fetal brain. Cells were transduced with a lentivirus containing a specific shRNA to ELAVL2 or a control shRNA. Cells were differentiated into neurons for 4 weeks and then harvested.
ELAVL2-regulated transcriptional and splicing networks in human neurons link neurodevelopment and autism.
