Description
The role of the histone mehyltrasferase G9a (also known as Ehmt2) in cardiac hypertrophy has not been studied extensively. To address how G9a promotes cardiac hypertrophy, we assessed the gene expression signature defined by G9a in cardiomyocytes (CM) of mice subject to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) for 1 wk, a surgical procedure that causes cardiac hypertrophy following the induction of pressure overload. To this end, we compared the expression profiles of CMs isolated from mice treated with the G9a inhibitor BIX-01294 and control groups (untreated and DMSO-treated mice at baseline and after TAC). The expression profiles were defined by Illumina arrays .

Description
The role of the histone mehyltrasferase G9a (also known as Ehmt2) in heart has not been extensively studied. To identify the genes regulated by G9a in the normal heart, we first generated a conditional, cardiac-specific KO mouse for this gene using the Cre-Lox approach, crossing G9a flox/flox mice with aMHC-MerCreMer mice (Cre mice were used as controls). Then, we sequenced total RNA (Total-RNA-seq) from cardiomyocyte-enriched populations isolated from G9a-KO and Cre mice, and compared the two expression profiles. Overall design: Profiling of the transcriptome of cardiomyocyte-enriched populations isolated from G9a-KO and Cre mice. Two biological replicates were profiled for each cell type.

Description
Methylation at 5-cytosine (5-mC) is a fundamental epigenetic DNA modification associated recently with cardiac disease. In contrast, the role of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) – 5-mC's oxidation product – is unknown in the context of the heart. Here, we assess the hydroxymethylome in embryonic, neonatal, adult and hypertrophic mouse cardiomyocytes, showing that dynamic modulation of hydroxymethylated DNA is associated with specific transcriptional networks during heart development and failure. DNA hydroxymethylation marks gene bodies of highly expressed genes and distal regulatory regions with enhanced activity. Pathological hypertrophy is characterized by a partial shift towards a fetal-like distribution pattern. We further demonstrate a regulatory function of TET2 and provide evidence that the expression of key cardiac genes, such as Myh7 is modulated by TET2-mediated 5-hmC deposition on the gene body and at enhancers in cardiac cells. We thus provide the first genome-wide analysis of 5-hmC in the cardiomyocyte, and establish the role of this epigenetic modification in heart development and disease Overall design: Profiling of the transcriptome of embryonic, neonatal, adult, 1 week hypertrophic cardiomyocytes, sh-control and sh-TET2 cardiomyocytes. Two biological replicates were profiled for each cell type.

Description
The rapid transit from hypoxia to normoxia in the lung that follows the first breath in newborn mice coincides with alveolar macrophage (AM) differentiation. However, whether sensing of oxygen affects AM maturation and function has not been previously explored. We have generated mice whose AMs show a deficient ability to sense oxygen after birth by deleting Vhl, a negative regulator of HIF transcription factors, in the CD11c compartment (CD11c?Vhl mice). VHL-deficient AMs show an immature-like phenotype and an impaired self-renewal capacity in vivo that persists upon culture ex vivo. VHL-deficient phenotype is intrinsic in AMs derived from monocyte precursors in mixed bone marrow chimeras. Moreover, unlike control Vhlfl/fl, AMs from CD11c?Vhl mice do not revert pulmonary alveolar proteinosis when transplanted into Csf2rb-/- mice, demonstrating that VHL contributes to AM-mediated surfactant clearance. Thus, our results suggest that optimal AM terminal differentiation, self-renewal, and homeostatic function requires their oxygen sensing capacity. Overall design: BAL AMs were pooled from 5-7 age and sex-matched mice per genotype and further purified by positive selection with anti-CD11c-microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec), following manufacturer's instructions. Cell lysis was performed with buffer RLT (Qiagen), containing 10µ/ml ß-mercaptoethanol and RNA was isolated with RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (Qiagen). RNA concentration and integrity were determined with an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Caliper Life Science). Samples with RNA integrity values > 8 were further processed. A total of 3 pools per genotype were used for RNA Seq.

Description
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which joint inflammation lead to progressive cartilage and bone destruction. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) implicated in homeostasis of extracellular matrix (ECM) play a central role in cartilage degradation. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of MMP-8 (collagenase-2) suppression in the K/BxN serum-transfer arthritis model.

Description
Spheroids are 3D multi-cell aggregates formed in non-addherent culture conditions. In ovarian cancer (OC), they serve as a vehicle for cancer cell dissemination in the peritoneal cavity. We investigated genes and networks upregulated in three dimensional (3D) versus two-dimensional (2D) culture conditions by Affymetrix gene expression profiling and identified ALDH1A1, a cancer stem cell marker as being upregulated in OC spheroids. Network analysis confirmed ALDH1A1 upregulation in spheroids in direct connection with elements of the -catenin pathway. A parallel increase in the expression levels of -catenin and ALDH1A1 was demonstrated in spheroids vs. monolayers an in successive spheroid generations by using OC cell liness and primary OC cells. The percentage of Aldefluor positive cells was significantly higher in spheroids vs. monolayers in IGROV1, A2780, SKOV3, and primary OC cells. B-catenin knock-down decreased ALDH1A1 expression and chromatin immunoprecipitation demonstrated that -catenin directly binds to the ALDH1A1 promoter. Both siRNA mediated -catenin knock-down and a novel ALDH1A1 small molecule enzymatic inhibitor described here for the first time, decreased the number of OC spheroids (p<0.001) and cell viability. These data strongly support the role of -catenin regulated ALDH1A1 in the maintenance of OC spheroids and of a stem cell phenotype and propose new ALDH1A1 inhibitors targeting this cell population.
