We isolated and selected intestinal adenoma organoids from Apcmin/+; Rosa26LSL-TdTomato; Prox1-CreERT2 mice. After the selection procedure without growth factors, we induced CreERT2 activity and the transcription of tdTomato to label Prox1+ cells by 300 nM 4-hydroxytamoxifen for 16h. tdTomato+ (Prox1+) and tdTomato- cells (enriched for Prox1- cells) were FACS sorted and total RNA was isolated.
Transcription Factor PROX1 Suppresses Notch Pathway Activation via the Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase Complex in Colorectal Cancer Stem-like Cells.

View SamplesIn this analysis we have compared the gene expression profiles of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) isolated from human intestine (iLECs) versus LECs from human skin (dLECs).
Liprin (beta)1 is highly expressed in lymphatic vasculature and is important for lymphatic vessel integrity.
Specimen part
View SamplesWe isolated and selected intestinal adenoma organoids from villin-CreER; Apcflox/flox and villin-CreER; Apcflox/flox; Prox1flox/flox mice and added tamoxifen to induce the deletion of the Apc and Prox1 genes in the intestinal epitheliul ex vivo. Microarray experiments were carried out 7 days after the addition of tamoxifen.
Prox1 promotes expansion of the colorectal cancer stem cell population to fuel tumor growth and ischemia resistance.

View SamplesKaposi sarcoma is the most common cancer in AIDS patients and is typified by red skin lesions.The disease is caused by the KSHV virus (HHV8) and is recognisable by its distinctive red skin lesions. The lesions are KSHV infected spindle cells expressing markers of the lymphatic endothelial and blood vessel endothelial cells as well as other cell types. The effects of KSHV infection of lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) cultured in 3D matrix for three days were assayed using Affymetrix hgu133plus2 chips.
KSHV-initiated notch activation leads to membrane-type-1 matrix metalloproteinase-dependent lymphatic endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition.

View SamplesRecent data from our group, demonstrate that infusion of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG35-55) peptide, leads to induction of MOG35-55-specific Tregs and subsequent suppression of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE), the mouse model of multiple sclerosis. Amelioration of EAE was accompanied by reduced MOG-specific Th1 and Th17 responses in the draining lymph nodes (dLNs). Phenotypic analysis of the dLNs of MOG-infused mice revealed a significant Treg-mediated reduction in the recruitment of 7AAD-CD3-CD19-CD11c+CD11bhighGr-1+ iDCs compared to non-infused control immunized mice. Focusing on the delineation of novel molecules/genes that are involved in the MOG-specific Treg-mediated suppression of autoimmune responses, we have isolated highly purified iDCs from MOG infused and non-infused control immunized mice.
De novo-induced self-antigen-specific Foxp3+ regulatory T cells impair the accumulation of inflammatory dendritic cells in draining lymph nodes.
