Description
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is clinically heterogeneous, comprising different histological and biological subtypes. Multiple studies have implicated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a biological process by which polarized epithelial cells convert into a mesenchymal phenotype, to contribute significantly to this molecular heterogeneity of EOC. From gene expression analyses of a collection of EMT-characterized EOC cell lines, we found that the expression of the transcription factor Grainyhead-like 2 (GRHL2) correlates with E-cadherin expression and the epithelial phenotype. EOC tumors with lower levels of GRHL2 are associated with the Mes (mesenchymal) molecular subtype and show poorer overall survival in patients. Here, we demonstrate that shRNA-mediated knockdown of GRHL2 in EOC cells with an epithelial phenotype resulted in EMT changes, with increased cell migration, invasion and motility. By ChIP-sequencing and gene expression microarray, we identified a variety of target genes regulated by GRHL2, including protein-coding and non-coding genes. Our data suggest that GRHL2 maintains the epithelial phenotype of EOC cells through the regulatory networks of miR-200b/a, ZEB1 and E-cadherin. These findings support GRHL2 as a crucial player in the molecular heterogeneity of EOC.

Description
S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) is the methyl donor for biological methylation modifications that regulate protein and nucleic acid functions. Here we show that methylation of a phospholipid, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), is the major consumer of SAM in budding yeast. The induction of phospholipid biosynthetic genes is accompanied by induction of the enzyme that hydrolyzes S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH), a product and inhibitor of methyltransferases. Beyond its function for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PC), the methylation of PE facilitates the turnover of SAM for the synthesis of cysteine and glutathione. Strikingly, cells that lack PE methylation accumulate SAM, which leads to hypermethylation of histones and the major phosphatase PP2A, dependency on cysteine, and sensitivity to oxidative stress. Without PE methylation, particular sites on histones then become methyl sinks to enable the turnover of SAM. These findings reveal an unforeseen metabolic function for phospholipid and histone methylation intrinsic to the life of a cell. Overall design: Two biological replicates of wild type and cho2? cells in YPL media, in SL media after 1 hour and in SL media after 3 hour were collected for sequencing.

Description
We report RNA sequencing of single olfactory neurons from mouse olfactory epithelium in developmental progression from progenitors to precursors to immature neurons to mature neurons. Most mature neurons expressed only one of ~ 1000 odorant receptor genes (Olfrs) at high levels, whereas many immature neurons expressed low levels of multiple Olfrs. Overall design: Investigating expression of odorant receptors genes in mouse olfactory sensory neurons during development.

Description
TGF is one of most intensively studied regulators of extracellular matrix formation, and has been implicated in the development of pulmonary fibrosis in different models. However, little is know about the role of miRNAs in TGF mediated fibrogenic gene regulation. By using miRNA qRT-PCR array, we have identified miRNAs whose expression are regulated by TGF in IMR-90 cells. Among those down-regulated miRNAs are miR-29 family members. Knockdown miR-29 in IMR-90 cells results in up-regulation of a large number of extracellular matrix and fibrogenic genes including family members of collagen, laminin, integrin, ADAM and MMP, many of them are predicted or confirmed miR-29 targets. Hierarchichal clustering analysis of mRNA array data revealed that many extracellular matrix and fibrogenic genes up-regulated by TGF in IMR-90 cells, are also up-regulated in miR-29 KD cells. Moreover, the similar set of extracellular matrix and fibrogenic genes is also significantly up-regulated in bleomycin treated mouse lungs. Together, our data strongly suggest that downstream of the TGF, miR-29 is a master modulator of genes involved in extracellular matrix formation and might play a significant role in pulmonary fibrosis.

Description
GW182 (Tnrc6a) is a key component of RISC (miRNA-Induced Silencing Complex) that plays a critical role in miRNA-mediated gene silencing. Here, we show that GW182 is expressed in the yolk sac endoderm, and that gene-trap disruption of GW182 leads to growth arrest of yolk sac endoderm, impaired hematopoiesis and embryonic lethality.

Description
As the most widely used mammalian model organism, mice play a critical role in biomedical research for mechanistic study of human development and diseases. Today, functional sequences in the mouse genome are still poorly annotated a decade after its initial sequencing. We report here a map of nearly 300,000 cis-regulatory sequences in the mouse genome, representing active promoters, enhancers and CTCF binding sites in a diverse set of 19 tissues and cell types. This map provides functional annotation to nearly 11% of the genome, and over 70% of conserved, non-coding sequences. We define tissue-specific enhancers and identify potential transcription factors regulating gene expression in each tissue or cell type. Finally, we demonstrate that cis-regulatory sequences are organized into domains of coordinately regulated enhancers and promoters. Our results provide a valuable resource for the annotation of functional elements in the mammalian genome, and study of regulatory mechanisms for tissue-specific gene expression. Overall design: 19 tissues and primary cell types were examined.
