Description
Determination of the genes regulated by ERRalpha nuclear receptor in MDA-MB231 cells Overall design: MDA-MB231 cells were inactivated for ERRalpha using siRNA. Three different siRNAs were used (siE1, siE2, siE3). Cells treated with a control siRNA (siC samples) were used for comparison. Duplicate samples were analyzed. Transcriptomic analysis was performed by RNA-Seq

Description
During development of the central nervous system (CNS), cycling uncommitted progenitor cells give rise to a variety of distinct neuronal and glial cell types. As these different cell types are born, they progress from newly specified cells to fully differentiated neurons and glia. In order to define the developmental processes of individual cell types, single cell expression profiling was carried out on developing ganglion and amacrine cells of the murine retina. Individual cells from multiple developmental stages were isolated and profiled on Affymetrix oligonucleotide arrays. These experiments have yielded an expanded view of the processes underway in developing retinal ganglion and amacrine cells, as well as several hundred new marker genes for these cell types. In addition, this study has allowed for the definition of some of the molecular heterogeneity both between developing ganglion and amacrine cells and among subclasses of each cell type.

Description
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is characterized by cystic lung destruction caused by smooth, muscle-like LAM cells which have mutations in the tumor suppressor genes Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) 1 or 2, and the capacity to metastasize. Since chemokines and their receptors function in chemotaxis of metastatic cells, we hypothesized that LAM cells may be recruited by chemokine(s) in the lung. Quantification of 25 chemokines in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from LAM patients and healthy volunteers revealed that concentrations of MCP-1/CCL2, GROa/CXCL1 and ENA-78/CXCL5 were significantly higher in samples from LAM patients than healthy volunteers. In this transcript analysis, expression of chemokine and chemokine receptor mRNA in LAM cells differed from those in melanoma and smooth muscle cells. Subsequent immunohistochemistry of lung sections from 30 LAM patients confirmed protein expression of chemokines and these receptors varied among LAM patient and differed from that seen in breast cancer and melanoma cells. . In vitro, MCP-1/CCL2 induced selective migration of cells showing loss of heterozygosity of TSC2 from a heterogeneous populations of cells grown from explanted LAM lungs. In addition, the frequencies of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the MCP-1 gene promoter region differed significantly in LAM patients and healthy volunteers (p=0.018), and one polymorphism was associated significantly more frequently with the decline of lung function. These observations are consistent with the notion that chemokines such as MCP-1 may serve to specify site of LAM cell metastasis.

Description
Patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) develop hamartomas containing biallelic inactivating mutations in either TSC1 or TSC2, resulting in mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation. Hamartomas overgrow epithelial and mesenchymal cells in TSC skin. The pathogenetic mechanisms for these changes had not been investigated, and the existence or location of cells with biallelic mutations (two-hit cells) that resulted in mTOR activation was unclear. We compared TSC skin hamartomas (facial angiofibromas and periungual fibromas) to normal-appearing skin of the same patient, and observed more proliferation and mTOR activation in hamartoma epidermis. Two-hit cells were not detected in the epidermis. Fibroblast-like cells in the dermis, however, exhibited allelic deletion of TSC2, in both touch preparations of fresh tumor samples and cells grown from TSC skin tumors, suggesting that increased epidermal proliferation and mTOR activation were not caused by second-hit mutations in the keratinocytes but by mesenchymal-epithelial interactions. Gene expression arrays, used to identify potential paracrine factors released by mesenchymal cells, revealed more epiregulin mRNA in fibroblast-like angiofibroma and periungual fibroma cells than in fibroblasts from normal-appearing skin of the same patient. Elevation of epiregulin mRNA was confirmed using real-time PCR, and increased amounts of epiregulin protein were demonstrated using immunoprecipitation and ELISA. Epiregulin stimulated keratinocyte proliferation and phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 in vitro. These results suggest that hamartomatous TSC skin tumors are induced by paracrine factors released by two-hit cells in the dermis, and that proliferation with mTOR activation of the overlying epidermis is an effect of epiregulin.

Description
Mesenchyme-derived cells in the human airway wall including airway smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts and myofibroblasts are known to play important roles in airway remodeling. The lack of specific phenotypic markers makes it difficult to define these cell populations in primary cultures. The objectives of this study were to evaluate reported markers and to identify novel markers to define these cell types.
Publication Title
Can lineage-specific markers be identified to characterize mesenchyme-derived cell populations in the human airways?
