View SamplesDisplacement of Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal (BET) proteins from chromatin has promise for cancer and inflammatory disease treatments, but roles of BET proteins in metabolic disease remain unexplored. Small molecule BET inhibitors, such as JQ1, block BET protein binding to acetylated lysines, but lack selectivity within the BET family (Brd2, Brd3, Brd4, Brdt), making it difficult to disentangle contributions of each family member to transcriptional and cellular outcomes. Here, we demonstrate multiple improvements in pancreatic -cells upon BET inhibition with JQ1 or BET-specific siRNAs. JQ1 (50-400 nM) increases insulin secretion from INS-1 cells in a concentration dependent manner. JQ1 increases insulin content in INS-1 cells, accounting for increased secretion, in both rat and human islets. Higher concentrations of JQ1 decrease intracellular triglyceride stores in INS-1 cells, a result of increased fatty acid oxidation. Specific inhibition of both Brd2 and Brd4 enhances insulin transcription, leading to increased insulin content. Inhibition of Brd2 alone increases fatty acid oxidation. Overlapping yet discrete roles for individual BET proteins in metabolic regulation suggest new isoform-selective BET inhibitors may be useful to treat insulin resistant/diabetic patients. Results imply that cancer and diseases of chronic inflammation or disordered metabolism are related through shared chromatin regulatory mechanisms.

View SamplesWe investigated whether in vitro expansion of human alveolar epithelial type II cells is possible. We found that human endogenous human alveolar epithelial type II cells can be cultured and passaged. The culture system enabled retroviral gene transduction into human alveolar epithelial type II cells. We performed RNA sequencing of human alveolar epithelial type II cells transduced with mutant surfactant protein C or control vector. Overall design: Cultured human alveolar epithelial type II cells were transfected with retroviral vector containing mutant surfactant protein C or control retroviral vector. The retroviral vector contained LNGFR as a marker. After gene transduction, transduced cells were purified by magnetic-activated cell sorting. The transcriptome of the cells was generated by 5'Tag-seq using Ion Genestudio S5 Sequencer.

View SamplesIn the alveoli, lung fibroblasts are in close contact with alveolar epithelial cells type 2, and are considered to support alveolar epithelial cells, forming an alveolar stem cell niche. However, what fibroblast-to-epithelial cell interactions occur during the alveolar maturation stage remains unclear. To understand the lung fibroblast-to-epithelial cell interactions, we performed time-course 3´SAGE-seq analysis of lung epithelial cells and fibroblasts. Overall design: Lung epithelial cells and lung fibroblasts from various developmental stages (E18.5, P0.5, P2, P7, P28, and P56) were purified by cell sorting. The time series transcriptome of the epithelial cells and fibroblasts was generated by 3'SAGE-seq using Ion Proton sequencer.
