Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
The epiblast (foremost embryonic ectoderm) generates all three germ layers and therefore has crucial roles in the formation of all mammalian body cells. Regulation of epiblast gene expression is poorly understood due to the difficulty of manipulating epiblast tissues in vivo. In the present study, using the self-organizing properties of embryonic stem cells (ESCs), we generated and characterized epiblast-like tissue in three-dimensional (3D) culture. We identified significant genome-wide expression changes in this epiblast-like tissue. Additionally, we identified the significance of the Fgf/Erk and ectoderm formation pathways, using the bioinformatics resource IPA and DAVID. We first focused on Fgf5, which ranked in the top 10 among discovered genes. Toward functional analysis of Fgf5, we developed efficient methods of genome engineering (CRISPR/Cas9) and RNA interference (RNAi). Notably, we show one-step generation of an Fgf5 reporter line, null and in/del mutants. Furthermore, mutation types correlated well with CRISPR/Cas9 activity. For time- and dose-dependent depletion of Fgf5 over the course of development, we generated an ESC line harboring a drug-inducible short hairpin RNA cassette integrated by the Tol2 transposon system (pRNAi). Our methods provide a framework for a broad array of applications in the areas of mammalian genetics and molecular biology to understand development and to improve future therapeutics.

Description
Analysis of the roles of Irx3 and Irx5 transcription factors in mouse heart development and postnatal heart function. Results show that show that Irx3 and Irx5 have redundant function in the in the endocardium to regulate atrioventricular canal morphogenesis and outflow tract formation. A postnatal deletion of Irx3 and Irx5 surprisingly results in a restoration of the repolarization gradient that is altered in Irx5 mutant hearts, suggesting a model whereby postnatal Irx3 activity is normally repressed by Irx5.

Description
Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology allows for the generation of patient-specific pluripotent stem cells, from somatic cell sources, thereby providing a novel cell therapy platform for severe degenerative diseases. One of the key issues for clinical-grade iPSC derivation is the accessibility of donor cells used for reprogramming and subsequent feasiblity of reprogramming into a pluripotent state.

Description
Plant hormones interact with each other and regulate gene expression to control plant growth and development. To understand the complex network, accumulation of comprehensive and integrative data of gene expression and hormone concentration is important. Using microarray, global gene expression profile was analyzed to compare with plant hormone concentration in 14 parts of rice at reproductive stage.

Description
To delineate the mechanism by which human mitochondrial transcriptional factor A (hTFAM) suppresses AD pathology in the neuron model of AD, we first performed microarray analyses using using RNAs prepared from PS1P117L and wild-type neurons. Next, we performed microarray analyses using PS1P117L neurons with or without recombinant hTFAM protein treatment.

Description
The Fosb gene encodes subunits of the activator protein-1 transcription factor complex. Two mature mRNAs, Fosb and Fosb, encoding full-length FOSB and FOSB proteins respectively, are formed by alternative splicing of Fosb mRNA. Fosb products are expressed in several brain regions. Moreover, Fosb-null mice exhibit depressive-like behaviors and adult-onset spontaneous epilepsy, demonstrating important roles in neurological and psychiatric disorders. Study of Fosb products has focused almost exclusively on neurons; their function in glial cells remains to be explored. In this study, we found that microglia express equivalent levels of Fosb and Fosb mRNAs to hippocampal neurons and, using microarray analysis, we identified six microglial genes whose expression is dependent on Fosb products. Of these genes, we focused on C5ar1 and C5ar2, which encode receptors for complement C5a. In isolated Fosb-null microglia, chemotactic responsiveness toward the truncated form of C5a was significantly lower than that in wild-type cells. Fosb-null mice were significantly resistant to kainate-induced seizures compared with wild-type mice. C5ar1 mRNA levels and C5aR1 immunoreactivity were increased in wild-type hippocampus 24 hours after kainate administration; however, such induction was significantly reduced in Fosb-null hippocampus. Furthermore, microglial activation after kainate administration was significantly diminished in Fosb-null hippocampus, as shown by significant reductions in CD68 immunoreactivity, morphological change and reduced levels of Il6 and Tnf mRNAs, although no change in the number of Iba-1-positive cells was observed. These findings demonstrate that, under excitotoxicity, Fosb products contribute to a neuroinflammatory response in the hippocampus through regulation of microglial C5ar1 and C5ar2 expression.
