Analysis of the regulation of gene expression profiles by retinoblastoma-1 in Sertoli cells. Conditional knockout of Rb1 in Sertoli cells led to progressive infertiliy in male mice that occured between 10 and 14 weeks of age. Results of gene expression studies performed on 6 week-old purified Sertoli cells helped elucidate the key role of RB1 in mature, differentiated Sertoli cells.
Retinoblastoma protein plays multiple essential roles in the terminal differentiation of Sertoli cells.

View SamplesPlant 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.

View SamplesGATA6 is a zinc finger transcription factor that is required for the proliferation, development and specific gene regulation in the gastrointestinal tract. We have recently reported that GATA6-mediated induction of the intestinal stem cell marker LGR5 is required for the tumorigenicity of colon cancer cells. However, knockdown of LGR5, unlike GATA6, does not affect the proliferation of these cells under adherent conditions. Here we show that REG4, a member of the regenerating islet-derived (REG) family, is a target of GATA6. We further demonstrate that REG4 is downregulated by overexpression of miR-363, which suppresses GATA6 expression. Moreover, we show that GATA6-mediated activation of REG4 causes an acceleration of the growth of colon cancer cells under adherent conditions. These results suggest that GATA6 simultaneously activates the transcription of genes required for growth (REG4) and clonogenicity (LGR5), and the miR-363-GATA6-REG4/LGR5 pathway is critical for colorectal tumorigenesis.

View SamplesRetinal development requires precise temporal and spatial coordination of cell cycle exit, cell-fate specification, cell migration and differentiation. When this process is disrupted, retinoblastoma, a developmental tumor of the retina, can form. Epigenetic modulators are central to precisely coordinating developmental events, and many epigenetic processes have been implicated in cancer. Studying epigenetic mechanisms in development is challenging because they often regulate multiple cellular processes; therefore, elucidating the primary molecular mechanisms involved can be difficult. Here we explore the role of Brg1 in retinal development and retinoblastoma by using molecular and cellular approaches. Brg1 regulated retinal size by controlling cell cycle length, cell cycle exit, and cell survival during development. Brg1 was not required for cell-fate specification but was required for photoreceptor differentiation and cell adhesion/polarity programs that contribute to proper retinal lamination during development. The combination of defective cell differentiation and lamination led to retinal degeneration in Brg1-deficient retinae. Despite the hypocellularity, premature cell cycle exit, increased cell death, and extended cell cycle length, retinal progenitor cells persisted in Brg1-deficient retinae, thereby making them more susceptible to retinoblastoma. ChIP-seq analysis provided insight into the underlying molecular mechanisms of these complex Brg1-regulated cellular processes during retinal development.
Brg1 coordinates multiple processes during retinogenesis and is a tumor suppressor in retinoblastoma.
