Purpose: To characterize transcriptional changes associated with homozygous inactivation of Dot1l or Mll1 in MN1 driven AML Methods: We sequenced mRNA from murine LSK-cells transformed using forced expression of MN1 (MSCV-MN1-IRES-GFP), and transduced with Cre-vector to inactivate either Dot1l or Mll1. Cells were sorted for Cre-expression (pTomato fluorescent marker) or expression of an inert control vector. Results: Inactivation of either Dot1l or Mll1 in this model leads to a substantial delay or complete abrogation of leukemia development.Loss of Dot1l or Mll1 are associated with gene expression changes that have substantial overlap. In addition, genes that are downregulated follwing inactivation of Dot1l or Mll1 have substantial overlap with the gene set upregulated in MN1 transduced CMPs. Conclusions: MN1 mediated leukemogenesis is associated with a gene expression program that dependes on Mll1 and Dot1l Overall design: Examination of mRNA levels between Dot1l f/f and Dot1l ko, and Mll1 f/f and Mll1 ko.

View SamplesAnalysis of gene expression over serial 150um sections of a single gestational week 14.5 human neocortical specimen. The hypothesis tested with this dataset was that a transcriptional signature of radial glia (neural stem cells) could be isolated via unsupervised gene coexpression analysis due to variation in the abundance of this cell type from section to section. This dataset is the first of its kind generated using this method (Gene Coexpression Analysis of Serial Sections, or GCASS).
Radial glia require PDGFD-PDGFRβ signalling in human but not mouse neocortex.

View SamplesEnhanced understanding of differential gene expression and biological pathways associated with distinct phases of intramembranous bone regeneration following femoral marrow ablation surgery will improve future advancements regarding osseointegration of joint replacement implants, biomaterials design, and bone tissue engineering. A rat femoral marrow ablation model was performed and genome-wide microarray data were obtained from samples at 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 28, and 56 days post-ablation, with intact bones serving as controls at Day 0. Bayesian model-based clustering produced eight distinct groups amongst 9,062 significant gene probe sets based on similar temporal expression profiles, which were further categorized into three major temporal classes of increased, variable, and decreased expression. Differential biological processes and pathways associated with each major temporal group were identified, and significantly expressed genes involved were visually represented by heat maps. It was determined that the increased expression group exclusively contains genes involved in pathways for matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), Wnt signaling, TGF- signaling, and inflammatory pathway. Only the variable expression group contains genes associated with glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, Notch Signaling Pathway, natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity, and B cell receptor signaling pathway, among others. The decreased group exclusively consists of genes involved in heme biosynthesis, p53 signaling pathway, and hematopoietic cell lineage. Significant biological pathways and transcription factors expressed at each time point post-ablation were also identified.

View SamplesThe initiation of the mucosal immune response in Peyers patch (PP) relies on the sampling, processing and efficient presentation of foreign antigens by dendritic cells (DC). PP DC encompass five subsets, among which CD11b+ conventional DC (cDC) and LysoDC have distinct progenitors and functions but share many cell surface markers. This has previously led to confusion between these two subsets. In addition, another PP DC subset, termed double-negative (DN), remains poorly characterized. Here, we have studied the genetic relatedness of the different subsets of PP cDC at steady state and under TLR7 ligand stimulation. We also provide the transcriptional profiles of subepithelial TIM-4- and interfollicular TIM-4+ macrophages.

Results provided insight into molecular processes during the transition from dormancy to flowering in early spring in contrast to the active growth phase in summer.

View SamplesWe report genome-wide expression changes that occur in H9-iMSCs frozen with different freezing methods that include DMSO and non-DMSO experimental solutions such as SGC (sucrose-glycerol-creatinine, SMC (sucrose-mannitol-creatinine), and SGI (sucrose-mannitol-isoleucine). mRNA-Seq analysis shows that DMSO samples cluster with fresh samples in the same clade, while all samples using the experimental solutions cluster together. In addition, we also see that cells frozen using experimental solutions have upregulation of a number of key molecular function pathways including extracellular matrix structural genes, receptor binding, and growth factor expression. Overall design: H9 MSCs were cultured in alpha-MEM base (Life Technologies), 10% FBS (qualified), and 1% non-essential amino acids (Life Technologies). Culture flasks were coated with 0.01% porcine gelatin (Fisher) for a minimum of 2 hours before H9 MSC seeding. H9 MSCs were seeded in gelatin-coated flasks at a density of approximately 2500 cells/cm2. Cells were split when they reached 70% confluence and were used for experiments only from passages 8 to 12. Control cells in media were similarly combined stepwise with DMSO at a 1:1 final volume ratio. Each of these vials was incubated at room temperature for 0, 1, or 2 hours. Experimental solutions were frozen using a 3°C/min cooling rate while DMSO solutions were frozen using a 1°C/min cooling rate. Samples were submerged in a 37ºC bath to just under cap level, and agitated until only a small ice crystal was present. The cells were combined with acridine orange/propidium iodide (AO/PI) and enumerated using a hemocytometer. Samples were diluted, centrifuged and supernatant was aspirated, followed by preparation for RNA isolation. Purified RNA was then submitted for RNA-sequencing.
