Description
We performed RNA-seq from 6 days post fertilization hnf4a-/- and hnf4a+/+ zebrafish larval digestive tracts raised in the absence (Germ Free, GF) or presence (Conventionalized, CV) of microbiota. We found that zebrafish hnf4a activates almost half of the microbiota-suppressed genes, indicating that the microbiota supress Hnf4a trans-activity. We also provide evidence suggesting that microbial suppression of Hnf4a may contribute to IBD pathogenesis. Overall design: Generation and analysis of RNA-seq from hnf4a-/- and hnf4a+/+ zebrafish larvae in the absence (Germ Free, GF) or presence (Conventionalized, CV) microbiota.

Description
We profiled genome-wide accesssible chromatin data and RNA-seq from four species (zebrafish, stickleback, mouse, and human) to identify commonly regulated genes and regulatory metods in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). We identify a group genes that are commonly expressed in IECs and genes that are commonly expressed along the length of the intestine in fish and mammals. Using accessible chromatin data we identified enriched transcription factor binding site motifs In IECs and sites that are commonly accessible in IECs in all species. Finally, we confirm the ability for these regions from multiple species to drive conserved expression in IECs using a zebrafish reporter assay. Overall design: Examination of expression levels and chromatin accessibility in intestinal epithelaial cells in zebrafish

Description
Background: The Spemann/Mangold organizer is a transient tissue critical for patterning the gastrula stage vertebrate embryo and formation of the three germ layers. Despite its important role during development, there are still relatively few genes with specific expression in the organizer and its derivatives. Foxa2 is a forkhead transcription factor that is absolutely required for formation of the mammalian equivalent of the organizer, the node, the axial mesoderm and the definitive endoderm (DE). However, the targets of Foxa2 during embryogenesis, and the molecular impact of organizer loss on the gastrula embryo, have not been well defined.

Description
Pancreas organogenesis is a highly dynamic process where neighbouring tissue interactions lead to dynamic changes in gene regulatory networks that orchestrates endocrine, exocrine and ductal lineage formation. To understand the spatio-temporal regulatory logic we have used the Forkhead transcription factor Foxa2-Venus fusion (FVF) knock-in reporter mouse to separate the FVF+ pancreatic epithelium from the FVF- surrounding mesenchyme and blood vessels to perform a whole genome-wide mRNA expression profiling at embryonic day (E)12.5-15.5. This allowed us to annotate genes and molecular processes differentially regulated in these cell types and compartments of the pancreas to generate a dynamic transcriptional landscape.

Description
The recent identification of novel progenitor populations that contribute to the developing heart in a distinct temporal and spatial manner has fundamentally improved our understanding of cardiac development. However, little remains known about cardiac specification events prior to the establishment of the heart tube, or the mechanisms that direct atrial versus ventricular specification. We have identified a novel progenitor population that gives rise specifically to cardiovascular cells of the ventricles but not the atria, and to the epicardium of the differentiated heart. We determined that this cell population is first specified during gastrulation, when it transiently expresses Foxa2, a gene not previously implicated in cardiac development. Using chimeric mosaic analysis we further demonstrate that Foxa2 is cell-autonomously required for the development of ventricular cells. Finally, we reveal the existence of an analogous Foxa2+ cardiac mesoderm population during in vitro differentiation from embryonic stem cells and illustrate that these cells express genes relevant for heart development. Our data thus describe the first progenitor population identified as early as gastrulation that displays ventricular-specific differentiation potential. Together, these findings provide important new insights into the developmental origin of ventricular and atrial myocytes, and will lead to the establishment of new strategies for generating these cell types from pluripotent stem cells. Overall design: Examination of global gene expression in four different cell types

Description
Missense mutations in coding region of PDX1 predispose to type-2 diabetes mellitus as well as cause MODY through largely unexplored mechanisms. Here, we screened a large cohort of subjects with increased risk for diabetes and identified two subjects with impaired glucose tolerance carrying heterozygous missense mutations in the PDX1 coding region leading to single amino acid exchanges (P33T, C18R) in its transactivation domain. We generated iPSCs from patients with heterozygous PDX1P33T/+, PDX1C18R/+ mutations and engineered isogenic cell lines carrying homozygous PDX1P33T/P33T, PDX1C18R/C18R mutations and a heterozygous PDX1 loss-of-function mutation (PDX1+/-). Using an in vitro ß-cell differentiation protocol, we demonstrated that both PDX1P33T/+, PDX1C18R/+ and PDX1P33T/P33T, PDX1C18R/C18R mutations impair ß-cell differentiation and function. Furthermore, PDX1+/- and PDX1P33T/P33T mutations reduced differentiation efficiency of pancreatic progenitors (PPs), due to downregulation of PDX1-bound genes, including transcription factors MNX1 and PDX1 as well as insulin resistance gene CES1. Additionally, both PDX1P33T/+ and PDX1P33T/P33T mutations in PPs reduced the expression of PDX1-bound genes including the long-noncoding RNA, MEG3 and the imprinted gene NEURONATIN, both involved in insulin synthesis and secretion. Our results reveal mechanistic details of how diabetes-associated PDX1 point mutations impair human pancreatic endocrine lineage formation and ß-cell function and contribute to pre-disposition for diabetes. Overall design: We performed RNA-seq of control and isogenic PDX1 mutant cell lines at PP stage

Description
Objective: Homozygous loss-of-function mutations in the gene coding for the homeobox transcription factor (TF) PDX1 leads to pancreatic agenesis, whereas heterozygous mutations can cause Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young 4 (MODY4). Although the function of Pdx1 is well studied in pre-clinical models during insulin-producing -cell development and homeostasis, it remains elusive how this TF controls human pancreas development by regulating a downstream transcriptional program. Furthermore, many studies reported the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and T2DM and it has been shown that islet enhancers are enriched in T2DM-associated SNPs. Whether regions, harboring T2DM-associated SNPs are PDX1 bound and active at the pancreatic progenitor stage has not been reported so far.
