Description
Oxidative DNA damage has been associated with cognitive decline. The Ogg1 and Mutyh DNA glycosylases cooperate to prevent mutations caused by 8-oxoG, a major premutagenic oxidative DNA base lesion. Here, we have examined behavior and cognitive function in mice deficient of these glycosylases. We found that Ogg1-/-Mutyh-/- mice were more active and less anxious and that their learning ability was impaired. In contrast, Mutyh-/- mice showed moderately improved memory compared to WT. There was no change in genomic 8-oxoG levels, suggesting that Ogg1 and Mutyh play minor roles in global repair in adult brain. Notably, transcriptome analysis of hippocampus revealed that differentially expressed genes in the mutant mice belong to pathways known to be involved in anxiety and cognitive function. Thus, beyond their involvement in DNA repair, Ogg1 and Mutyh modulate cognitive function and behavior, and related hippocampal gene expression, suggesting a novel role for 8-oxoG in regulating adaptive behavior. Overall design: The mRNA profiles from hippocampus of WT, Ogg1-/-, Mutyh-/- and Ogg1-/- Mutyh-/- C57BL/6 mice at 6month of age were generated by RNA sequencing using Illumina Hiseq 2000

Description
Differentiation of naive CD4 T cells into type 2 helper (Th2) cells is accompanied by chromatin remodeling and increased expression of a set of Th2-specific genes including those encoding Th2 cytokines. IL-4-mediated STAT6 activation induces high levels of transcription of GATA3, a master regulator of Th2 cell differentiation, and enforced expression of GATA3 induces Th2 cytokine expression. However, it remains unclear whether the expression of other Th2-specific genes is induced directly by GATA3. A genome-wide unbiased ChIP-seq analysis revealed that GATA3 bound to 1,279 genes selectively in Th2 cells, and 101 genes in both Th1 and Th2 cells. Simultaneously, we identified 26 highly Th2-specific STAT6-dependent inducible genes by a DNA microarray analysis-based three-step selection processes, and among them 17 genes showed GATA3 binding. We assessed dependency on GATA3 for the transcription of these 26 Th2-specific genes, and 10 genes showed increased transcription in a GATA3-dependent manner while 16 genes showed no significant responses. The transcription of the 16 GATA3-nonresponding genes was clearly increased by the introduction of an active form of STAT6, STAT6VT. Therefore, although GATA3 has been recognized as a master regulator of Th2 cell differentiation, many Th2-specific genes are not regulated by GATA3 itself but in collaboration with STAT6.

Description
A distinct type of macrophages helps breast cancer cells to overcome rate-limiting steps in the metastatic process and establish lethal metastatic tumors. Since only a minor population of cancer cells can establish macroscopic metastatic tumors, we hypothesized that this metastatic cancer cell population have higher expression of receptors for macrophage-derived ligands compared to their parental cells.

Description
Retinoid X receptor (RXR)-gamma is a nuclear receptor-type transcription factor expressed mostly in the skeletal muscle, and regulated by nutritional conditions. Previously, we established transgenic mice overexpressing RXR-gamma in the skeletal muscle (RXR-gamma mice), which showed lower blood glucose than the control mice. We used microarrays to investigate their glucose metabolism gene expression change.

Description
The polycomb group (PcG) proteins function in gene silencing through histone modifications. They form chromatin-associated multiprotein complexes, termed polycomb repressive complex (PRC) 1 and PRC2. These two complexes work in a coordinated manner in the maintenance of cellular memories through transcriptional repression of target genes. EZH2 is a catalytic component of PRC2 and trimethylates histone H3 at lysine 27 to transcriptionally repress the target genes. PcG proteins have been characterized as general regulators of stem cells, but recent works also unveiled their critical roles in cancer.

Description
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations have shown a dramatic response to EGFR inhibitors (EGFR-TKI). EGFR T790M mutation and MET amplification have been recognized as major mechanisms of acquired resistance to EGFR-TKI. Therefore, MET inhibitors have recently been used in NSCLC patients in clinical trials. In this study, we tried to identify the mechanism of acquired resistance to MET inhibitor. We analyzed the antitumor effects of two MET inhibitors, PHA-665752 and crizotinib, in 10 NSCLC cell lines. EBC1 cells with MET amplification were the only cells that were sensitive to both MET inhibitors. We established PHA-665752-resistant EBC1 cells, namely EBC1-R cells. EBC1-R cells showed overexpression of ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1) as well as phosphorylation of MET. EBC1-R cells grew as cell spheres that exhibited cancer stem cell-like (CSC) properties and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). The levels of two miRNAs, miR-374a and miR-138 which targeted ABCB1, were decreased in EBC1-R cells. ABCB1 siRNA and ABCB1 inhibitor elacridar could reduce sphere numbers and suppress EMT. Elacridar could also reverse the resistance to PHA-665752 in EBC1-R cells. Our study demonstrated that ABCB1 overexpression which was associated with CSC properties and EMT was involved in the acquired resistance to MET inhibitor. Inhibition of ABCB1 might be a novel therapeutic strategy for NSCLC patients with acquired resistance to MET inhibitor.
