Description
Background: Although chamber specialization is critical for proper cardiac function, a comprehensive, genome-wide analysis of the cardiac transcriptome, including identification of regional differences in mRNA and lncRNA expression patterns for the four chambers and interventricular septum of the non-failing human heart, has not been performed. Methods and Results: mRNA and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) transcriptional profiling of the left (LA) and right (RA) atria, left (LV) and right (RV) ventricles, and the interventricular septum (IVS) of non-failing human hearts (N=8) was performed by deep sequencing. Analysis of the mRNA and lncRNA expression profiles revealed that the different regions of the heart are distinct. Differential expression analysis of paired tissue samples identified 5,747 mRNAs and 2,794 lncRNAs with chamber-enriched expression patterns. The largest differences in mRNA and lncRNA expression were evident between atria and ventricular samples, including regional differences in ~20% of all cardiac expressed mRNA and lncRNA transcripts. Regional differences in mRNA and lncRNA expression were also evident, although to a lesser extent, between the LA and RA, and between the LV, RV and IVS. Gene ontology classification of differentially expressed gene sets revealed regional differences in chamber specialization, including differences in signaling, metabolism, and muscle contraction. Sex differences in mRNA and lncRNA gene expression profiles were also identified between male and female LA and RA samples. Conclusions: There are marked regional differences in the mRNA and lncRNA expression profiles in non-failing adult human heart, and are associated with chamber specialization. Overall design: 8 human hearts, 5 chambers from each

Description
Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and death in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Patients with CKD and ESRD are at high risk for myocardial dysfunction, ischemia and heart failure. The mechanisms linking impaired renal function and increased risk for cardiovascular diseases, however, remain elusive. In addition, conventional therapeutics proven effective in reducing cardiovascular events in general population fail to provide similar benefits in uremic patients. There is a clear need to identify novel mediators of cardiovascular complications in uremic patients to provide insights into the pathogenesis, to tailor clinical care based on cardiovascular risks, and to develop new therapeutic strategies. It has become increasingly clear that the transcription of the eukaryotic genome is far more pervasive and complex than previously appreciated. While the expression of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) account for only ~1% of all transcribed species, up to 90% of the mammalian genome is transcribed as long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a heterogeneous group of non-coding transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides. LncRNAs have been shown to be functional and involved in specific physiological and pathological processes through epigenetic, transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms. While the roles of lncRNAs in human diseases including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders are beginning to emerge, it remains unclear how lncRNA regulation contributes to cardiovascular complications in patients with renal dysfunction. In this proposal, we seek to apply next-generation sequencing technology to investigate circulating (plasma) lncRNA expression in control subjects and in patients with CKD and ESRD. We will test the hypothesis that circulating lncRNA expression signature can reflect the underlying kidney disease states in patients with CKD and ESRD. In addition, we will determine if circulating lncRNA expression signature could be a sensitive and specific biomarker to predict adverse cardiovascular events in patients with ESRD. Overall design: During the initial exploratory phase, plasma total RNA was isolated from 48 study subjects (28 ESRD, 8 CKD and 12 controls), followed by amplicon-based RNA sequencing (AmpliSeq TranscriptomeTM, Thermo Fisher), which allows simultaneous quantification of 20812 human transcripts, including 2228 lncRNAs. Differential expression analyses following RNASeq identified lncRNAs that were altered with ESRD, compared to control/CKD, as well as lncRNAs that were linked to adverse CV outcomes in uremic patients. The prognostic role of plasma lncRNAs in patients with ESRD were then validated in an independent cohort of 111 subjects.

Description
During gastrulation, cells of the prospective mesoderm ingress through the primitive streak and acquire fates based on complex spatial and temporal cues. Progenitors of the cardiogenic mesoderm are first found at E6.5 in the posterior lateral epiblast and subsequently migrate laterally and anteriorly to form the cardiac crescent at E7.5, when regionalized cell fates are first delineated . Lineage tracing and heterotopic transplantation studies suggest that precursors in the earliest heart field possess potential to generate myocardium, endocardium, and pericardium. The mechanisms by which inductive signals in the primitive streak effect the development of this pancardiac progenitor field, however, remain poorly understood

Description
Purpose: Quiescence is a state of reversible cell cycle exit. Levels of polyadenylation factors decreases when proliferating cells become quiescent. The goals of this study are to determine the differential use of polyadenylation sites (changes in alternative polyadenylation) in quiescent vs. proliferating cells and also upon knockdown of polyadenylation factors. Methods: Two biological replicates of human dermal fibroblasts (12-1 and 12-3) were used for polyadeylation-site enriched RNA-seq on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 to compare quiescent vs. proliferating cells and polyadenylation factor knockdown vs. control cells. The reads were aligned to the human genome (hg19) uisng Tophat (2.0.14). The resulting bam files were used as an input to a python script provided by Gruber et al. (PMID: 27382025) to determine the counts for each polyadenylation site. Results: We observed a shift toward greater use of distal polyadenylation sites when the fibroblasts entered quiescence. We observed significant overlap between the genes that shift to greater distal site use with quiescence and CstF-64 or CPSF73 knockdown. Conclusions: The shift to greater distal site use with quiescence may reflect in part the reduced levels of cleavage and polyadenylation factors. Overall design: Perform polyadenylation site-enriched RNA-Seq on: (1) two biological replicates of proliferating and quiescent (contact-inhibited) cells, and (2) two biological replicates of control and polyadenylation factor (CstF64, CPSF73 or CFIm25) knockdown cells.

Description
Our strategy was to manipulate mTOR signaling in vivo, then characterize the transcriptome and translating mRNA in liver tissue. In adult rats, we used the non-proliferative growth model of refeeding after a period of fasting, and the proliferative model of liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy. We also studied livers from pre-term fetal rats (embryonic day 19-20) in which fetal hepatocytes are asynchronously proliferating. All three models employed rapamycin to inhibit mTOR signaling.

Description
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent lymphoma associated with follicular center B cells, and typically contains the Bcl-2 chromosomal translocation t(14;18), which leads to overexpression of the anti-apoptotic intracellular protein Bcl-2. FLs are sensitive to chemotherapy; however, patient relapses occur and response duration becomes progressively shorter, with the majority of patients eventually dying from the disease. Enzastaurin (LY317615), an acyclic bisindolylmaleimide, was initially developed as an ATP-competitive selective inhibitor of PKC. We found, in agreement with recent reports, that enzastaurin inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis. These results are consistent with decreased phosphorylation of the Akt pathway and its downstream targets. To provide new insights into the anti-tumor action of enzastaurin on non-Hodgkin lymphoma, we investigated its effects on gene expression profiles of the B cell lymphoma RL cell line by oligonucleotide microarray analysis. We identified a set of 41 differentially expressed genes, mainly involved in cellular adhesion, apoptosis, inflammation, and immune and defense responses. These observations provide new insights into the mechanisms involved in the induction of apoptosis by enzastaurin in B cell lymphoma cell lines, and identify possible pathways that may contribute to the induction of apoptosis.
