View SamplesIn this study the generic impact of protein aggregation (aggregation of proteins not associated with neurodegenerative disease) on gene expression in cultured cells was investigated by DNA microarray technology. The survey of gene expression showed that the Hsp40, Hsp70 and Hsp105 genes, all of which have documented aggregation suppression activity, were up-regulated. Unexpectedly, the survey also showed increased expression of the MEK5 gene with concomitant silencing of the MEK3 gene. The expression pattern of MEK5 at the mRNA and protein levels aligns with the kinetics of aggregate formation and dissolution. Cell viability was unaffected by protein aggregates. These findings are of particular importance for chronic neurodegenerative diseases where the intraneuronal accumulation of aggregate-prone proteins are a major characteristic of the diseases. The identification of changes in MEK5 gene expression have been observed in Alzheimer-related diseases which provides new diagnostic and therapeutic avenues in these diseases. The molecular neuropathological findings would not have occurred without the generic microarray analyses.

View SamplesTo investigate the basic principles of epigenetic control, we established an orthogonal epigenetic regulatory system in mammalian cells using N6-methyladenine (m6A), a DNA modification not commonly found in metazoan epigenomes. We developed a synthetic initiator module (synI) capable of establishing m6A marks in a sequence-specific manner at designer reporter loci integrated in the human genome, and a synthetic readout module (synR) which selectively reads m6A and consequently induces transcriptional changes. To ensure our orthogonal m6A system has minimal interaction with endogenous human transcriptional machineries, we performed RNA-sequencing analysis and determined that both synI and synR expression have minimal effect on 293FT transcriptome.

View SamplesRecent advancements in cell-based therapies for the treatment of cardiovascular disease (CVD) show continuing promise for the use of transplanted stem and cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs) to promote cardiac restitution. However, a detailed understanding of the molecular mechanisms that control the development of these cells remains incomplete and is critical for optimizing their use in such therapy. Long non-coding (lnc) RNA has recently emerged as a crucial class of regulatory molecules involved in directing a variety of critical biological and cellular processes including development, homeostasis and disease. As such, a rising body of evidence suggests that they also play key regulatory roles in CPC development, though many questions remain regarding the expression landscape and specific identity of lncRNA involved in this process. To address this, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing of two murine CPC populations – Nkx2-5 EmGFP reporter-sorted embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived and ex vivo, cardiosphere-derived – in an effort to characterize their lncRNA profiles and potentially identify novel CPC regulators. The resulting sequencing data revealed an enrichment in both CPC populations for a panel of previously-identified lncRNA genes associated with cardiac differentiation. Additionally, a total of 1,678 differentially expressed and as-of-yet unannotated, putative lncRNA genes were found to be enriched for in the two CPC populations relative to undifferentiated ES cells.
