Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST Array (ragene10st)
Description
Liver transplantation is the only therapeutic option for patients with end-stage liver disease. The shortage of donor organs has led to the search for alternative therapies to restore liver function and bridge patients to transplantation. Our previous work has shown that the proliferation of late gestation E19 fetal hepatocytes is mitogen-independent. This is manifested as differences in the control of ribosome biogenesis, global translation, cell cycle progression and gene expression. In the present study, we investigated whether E19 fetal hepatocytes would engraft and repopulate an injured adult liver.

- Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST Array (ragene10st)
Description
We previously identified the mTOR pathway as critical to progenitor cell proliferation in a model of liver injury, we investigated the temporal activation of mTOR signaling in a rat model of hepatic carcinogenesis. The model employed chemical carcinogens and partial hepatectomy to induce progenitor marker-positive HCC. Rats were administered the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin for a three week period and liver harvested one month following cessation of rapamycin treatment. Short-term rapamycin treatment resulted in a significant reduction of focal lesion burden. Microarray analysis was performed to characterize the gene expression signature of persistent focal lesions in the rapamcyin and placebo treated animals. This analysis revealed a persistent effect of short-term mTORC1 inhibition on gene expression that resulted in a genetic signature reminiscent of normal liver.

Description
Tumors have the capacity to trigger the formation of blood vessels allowing them to spread to other body parts. We examined here the stem cells that form arteries and veins within tumors and propose that their inhibition reduces metastatic spread. Overall design: Examination of dynamics and differentiation of tissue resident endothelial hierarchy in a melanoma setting
Publication Title
Endovascular progenitors infiltrate melanomas and differentiate towards a variety of vascular beds promoting tumor metastasis.

Description
Two rat hepatic cell lines, WB-F344 and WB311, were characterized for the effect of rapamycin on gene expression. The WB311 cell line, which is tumorigenic and resistant to the growth inhibitory effects of rapamycin, was originally derived from the WB-F344 parental hepatic epithelial cell line. The goal of this experiment was to identify genes that responded to rapamycin in the sensitive cells but not the resistant cells, thereby providing insight into the mechanism of rapamycin resistance.

Description
The interplay between mitogenic and proinflammatory signaling pathways play key roles in determining the phenotypes and clinical outcomes of breast cancers. We have used global nuclear run-on coupled with deep sequencing to characterize the immediate transcriptional responses of MCF-7 breast cancer cells treated with estradiol, TNFa, or both. In addition, we have integrated these data with chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with deep sequencing for estrogen receptor alpha (ERa), the pioneer factor FoxA1 and the p65 subunit of the NF-?B transcription factor. Our results indicate extensive transcriptional interplay between these two signaling pathways, which is observed for a number of classical mitogenic and proinflammatory protein-coding genes. In addition, GRO-seq has allowed us to capture the transcriptional crosstalk at the genomic locations encoding for long non-coding RNAs, a poorly characterized class of RNAs which have been shown to play important roles in cancer outcomes. The synergistic and antagonistic interplay between estrogen and TNFa signaling at the gene level is also evident in the patterns of ERa and NF-?B binding, which relocalize to new binding sites that are not occupied by either treatment alone. Interestingly, the chromatin accessibility of classical ERa binding sites is predetermined prior to estrogen treatment, whereas ERa binding sites gained upon co-treatment with TNFa require NF-?B and FoxA1 to promote chromatin accessibility de novo. Our data suggest that TNFa signaling recruits FoxA1 and NF-?B to latent ERa enhancer locations and directly impact ERa enhancer accessibility. Binding of ERa to latent enhancers upon co-treatment, results in increased enhancer transcription, target gene expression and altered cellular response. This provides a mechanistic framework for understanding the molecular basis for integration of mitogenic and proinflammatory signaling in breast cancer. Overall design: Using GRO-seq and ChIP-seq (ER, FoxA1 and p65) to assay the molecular crosstalk of MCF-7 cells treated with E2, TNFa or both E2+TNFa.
