Description
Telogen (resting phase) hair follicles are more radioresistant than anagen (growth phase) ones. Irradiation of BALB/c mice in the anagen phase with -rays at 6 Gy induced hair follicle dystrophy, whereas irradiation in the telogen phase induced the arrest of hair follicle elongation without any dystrophy after post-irradiation depilation. In contrast, FGF18 was highly expressed in the telogen hair follicles to maintain the telogen phase and also the quiescence of hair follicle stem cells. Therefore, the inhibition of FGF receptor signaling at telogen induced the dystrophy after post-irradiation depilation. In addition, the administration of recombinant FGF18 suppressed cell proliferation in the hair follicles and enhanced the repair of radiation-induced DNA damage, so FGF18 protected the anagen hair follicles against radiation damage to enhance hair regeneration. Moreover, FGF18 reduced the expression of cyclin B1 and cdc2 in the skin and FGF18 signaling induced G2/M arrest in the keratinocyte cell line HaCaT, although no obvious change of the expression of DNA repair genes was detected by DNA microarray analysis. These findings suggest that FGF18 signaling for the hair cycle resting phase causes radioresistance in telogen hair follicles by arresting the proliferation of hair follicle cells.

Description
Although various mechanisms have been inferred for combinatorial actions of multiple carcinogens, these mechanisms have not been well demonstrated in experimental carcinogenesis models. We evaluated mammary carcinogenesis initiated by combined exposure to various doses of radiation and chemical carcinogens. Female rats at 7 weeks of age were -irradiated (0.22 Gy) and/or exposed to 1-methyl-1-nitrosourea (20 or 40 mg/kg, single intraperitoneal injection) or 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (40 mg/kg/day by gavage for 10 days) and were observed until 50 weeks of age. The incidence of mammary carcinoma increased steadily as a function of radiation dose in the absence of chemicals; mathematical analysis supported an additive increase when radiation was combined with a chemical carcinogen, irrespective of the chemical species and its dose. Hras mutations were characteristic of carcinomas that developed after chemical carcinogen treatments and were overrepresented in carcinomas induced by the combination of radiation and MNU (but not PhIP), indicating an interaction of radiation and MNU at the level of initiation. The expression profiles of seven classifier genes, previously shown to distinguish two classes of rat mammary carcinomas, categorized almost all examined carcinomas that developed after individual or combined treatments with radiation (1 Gy) and chemicals as belonging to a single class; more comprehensive screening using microarrays and a separate test sample set failed to identify differences in gene expression profiles among these carcinomas. These results suggest that a complex, multilevel interaction underlies the combinatorial action of radiation and chemical carcinogens in the experimental model.

Description
The goal of this study was to investigate the role of intragenic CTCF in alternative pre-mRNA splicing through a combined CTCF-ChIP-seq and RNA-seq approach. CTCF depletion led to decreased inclusion of weak upstream exons. Overall design: CTCF ChIP-seq was performed in BJAB and BL41 B cell lines and normalized relative to Rabbit Ig control IP-seq reads. RNA-seq was performed in BJAB and BL41 cells transduced with shRNA against CTCF or RFP as a control, and in untransduced cells as well.

Description
We found that a small molecule inhibitor of PRMT4 inhibited cell growth of a subset of multiple myeloma cell lines. To identify biomarkers that predict the sensitivity of myeloma cells to PRMT4 inhibition, we performed transcriptomic analysis of multiple myeloma cell lines. Overall design: Amplicon sequencing of thirteen multiple myeloma cell lines was performed on the Ion Torrent platform. Steady-state gene expression profile of sensitive cells were compaired with that of insensitive cells.

Description
Sensitivity to different pain modalities has a genetic basis that remains largely unknown. The use of closely related inbred mouse strains can facilitate gene mapping of nociceptive behaviors in preclinical pain models. We previously reported enhanced sensitivity to acute thermal nociception in C57BL/6J (B6J) versus C57BL/6N (B6N) substrains. Here, we expanded on pain phenotypes and observed an increase in inflammatory nociceptive behaviors induced by hindpaw formalin injections in B6J versus B6N mice (Charles River Laboratories). No strain differences were observed in mechanical or thermal hypersensitivity or in paw diameter following the Complete Freund s Adjuvant (CFA) model of inflammatory pain, indicating specificity in the inflammatory nociceptive stimulus. In the chronic nerve constriction injury (CCI), a model of neuropathic pain, no strain differences were observed in baseline mechanical threshold or in mechanical hypersensitivity up to one month post-CCI. We replicated the enhanced thermal nociception in B6J mice in the 52.5 C hot plate test relative to B6N mice from The Jackson Laboratory. Using a B6J x B6N-F2 cross (N=164), we mapped a major QTL underlying hot plate sensitivity to chromosome 7 that peaked at 26 Mb (LOD = 3.81, 8.74 Mb-36.50 Mb) that was more pronounced in males. Genes containing expression QTLs (eQTLs) associated with the peak nociceptive marker that have been implicated in pain and inflammation include Ryr1, Cyp2a5, Pou2f2, Clip3, Sirt2, Actn4, and Ltbp4 (FDR < 0.05). Future studies involving positional cloning and gene editing will determine the quantitative trait gene(s) and potential pleiotropy of this locus across other pain modalities. RNA-seq data and genotype information from striatum punches of F2 C57BL/6J (B6J) cross C57BL/NJ (B6NJ) oxycodone-treated mice. Genotypes are given relative to B6J allele, eg 0 = homozygous B6J. Overall design: C57BL/6J (B6J) and C57BL/NJ (B6NJ) mice were purchased from JAX at 7 weeks of age and were habituated in the vivarium one week prior to experimental testing that occurred next door. B6J females were crossed to B6NJ males to generate B6J x B6NJ-F1 mice and B6J x B6NJ F1 offspring were intercrossed to generate B6J x B6NJ F2 mice. Mice were 50-100 days old at the time of testing. F2 mice recieved four daily oxycodone injections (20 mg/kg, i.p.). Ninety SNP markers spaced approximately 30 Mb (approximately 15 cM) apart were genotyped using a custom-designed Fluidigm array.

Description
Cholesteatoma arises from a tympanic membrane and expands in the middle ear. It erodes the surrounding bone and leads to hearing loss or brain abscess which is lethal complication. Currently, the only effective treatment is the complete surgical removal of cholesteatoma. However, possibility of recurrence is not satisfactory, other clinical treatment is desired. A mechanism of bone erosion in rheumatoid arthritis, which is one of the bone destructive disease, is progressing to be clarified. Receptor activator of NF-?B ligand (RANKL) secreted by synovial fibroblasts, T cells, and B cells lead to differentiation and activation of osteoclast precursor in rheumatoid arthritis. In contrast it has been still unclear why cholesteatoma erodes bone. In the current study we studied that osteoclasts statistically increased in cholesteatoma, and that fibroblasts in the prematrix of cholesteatoma express RANKL. In this study we studied that osteoclasts statistically increased in cholesteatoma, and that fibroblasts in the prematrix of cholesteatoma express RANKL. We investigated upstream of RANKL from RNA sequence results by Ingenuity Pathways Analysis, which is data base of abundance information about molecular biology. Overall design: To generate the transcriptome profiles of the permatrix of cholesteatoma and dermis cut by laser micro dissection from cholesteatoma, three pairs of both sample from the same patients were adapted to RNA sequencing.
