- Affymetrix Rhesus Macaque Genome Array (rhesus)
Description
Rhesus macaques (RMs) inoculated with live-attenuated Rev-Independent Nef simian immunodeficiency virus (Rev-Ind NefSIV) as adults or neonates controlled viremia to undetectable levels and showed no signs of immunodeficiency over 6-8 years of follow-up. We tested the capacity of this live-attenuated virus to protect RMs against pathogenic, heterologous SIVsmE660 challenges

Description
5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) occurs at maximal levels in postmitotic neurons where its accumulation is cell specific and correlated with gene expression. Here we demonstrate that the distribution of 5hmC in CG and non-CG dinucleotides is distinct, and that it reflects the binding specificity and genome occupancy of methylcytosine binding protein 2 (MeCP2). In expressed gene bodies, accumulation of 5hmCG acts in opposition to 5mCG resulting in “functional” demethylation and diminished MeCP2 binding, thus facilitating transcription. Non-CG hydroxymethylation occurs predominantly in CA dinucleotides (5hmCA) and it accumulates in regions flanking active enhancers. In these domains, oxidation of 5mCA to 5hmCA does not alter MeCP2 binding or expression of adjacent genes. We conclude that the role of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in postmitotic neurons is to functionally demethylate expressed gene bodies while retaining the role of MeCP2 in chromatin organization. Overall design: Examination of genome wide cytosine methylation and hydroxymethylation per context in cerebellar granule cells and their function in MeCP2 binding. Nuclear RNA-Seq dataset.

Description
Chronic myeloid leukemia is a disease originated at the level of hematopoietic stem cell, characterized by the abnormal overproduction and accumulation, both in blood and bone marrow, of myeloid cells. Treatment options include tyrosine kinase inhibitors that inhibit BCR-ABL activity, however some patients develop resistance to these drugs and has been asociated to the stem cells

Description
Low Klf4 expression reproducibly gives rise to a homogeneous population of partially reprogrammed iPSCs. Upregulation of Klf4 allows these cells to resume reprogramming, indicating that they are paused iPSCs that remain on the path towards pluripotency. Paused iPSCs with different Klf4 expression levels remain at distinct intermediate stages of reprogramming.
Publication Title
Manipulation of KLF4 expression generates iPSCs paused at successive stages of reprogramming.

Description
Mitochondrial biogenesis and metabolism recently emerged as critical modulators of stemness properties and differentiation programmes. The increase in mitochondrial biogenesis and metabolic shift toward increased oxidative phosphorylations (OXPHOS) appear as hallmarks of stem cell differentiation processes. While several mechanisms support the involvement of mitochondrial biogenesis and function in the regulation of stem cell differentiation, the mechanisms triggering mitochondrial biogenesis in the context of cell differentiation remain elusive. In this study, we performed transcriptomic and bioinformatic analyses in order to get deeper insights into the cross-regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis and hepatogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs). We identified a transcriptional regulatory network involved in the co-regulation of stem cell differentiation and mitochondrial biogenesis. Overall design: Transcriptomics analyses performed at early time points of the hepatogenic differentiation of BM-MSC

Description
COUP-TFII, a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily plays a critical role in angiogenesis and organogenesis during embryonic development. Our results indicate that COUP-TFII expression is profoundly upregulated in prostate cancer patients and might serves as biomarker for recurrence prediction. Thus we conduct transcriptome comparison of control and COUP-TFII depleted PC3 cells to gain genomic insights on the biological processes that COUP-TFII is involved in prostate cancer cells. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) shows that the most prominent altered pathways in the COUP-TFII depleted cells are related to cell growth; cell cycle progression and DNA damage response. Indeed many growth related genes including E2F1, p21, CDC25A, Cyclin A and Cyclin B are changed in COUP-TFII knockdown cells, suggesting that COUP-TFII might be an important regulator for prostate cancer cell growth. Further functional assays from cells and mice genetic studies confirm the hypothesis that COUP-TFII serve as the major regulator to control prostrate cancer growth. Together, results provide insight into the role of COUP-TFII in prostate tumorigenesis.

Description
Studies investigating the causes of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) point to genetic as well as epigenetic mechanisms of the disease. Identification of epigenetic processes that contribute to ASD development and progression is of major importance and may lead to the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Here we identify the bromodomain and extra-terminal domain containing transcriptional regulators (BETs) as epigenetic drivers of an ASD-like disorder in mice. We found that the pharmacological suppression of the BET proteins by a novel, highly selective and brain-permeable inhibitor, I-BET858, leads to selective suppression of neuronal gene expression followed by the development of an autism-like syndrome in mice. Many of the I-BET858 affected genes have been linked to ASD in humans thus suggesting the key role of the BET-controlled gene network in ASD. Our studies also suggest that environmental factors controlling BET proteins or their target genes may contribute to the epigenetic mechanism of ASD.

Autism-like syndrome is induced by pharmacological suppression of BET proteins in young mice.

Description
This project defines the microglial gene expression profile in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer''s, compared to non-transgenic age-matched controls, at a time when amyloid pathology and microgliosis are rampant. Microglia were sorted live from one hemisphere of cerebral cortex, using GFP expressed from Cx3cr1 locus (mice have one intact copy of Cx3cr1). RNA was isolated from sorted microglia using RNeasy mini. Two groups, PS2APP and non-transgenic, with 9 mice/group, aged 14-15 months. The "SAMPLE_ID" sample characteristic is a sample identifier internal to Genentech. The ID of this project in Genentech''s ExpressionPlot database is PRJ0006715 Overall design: Gene expression in Cx3cr1::GFP+ sorted cells from cortex of wildtype or PS2APP at 14-15 months of age.
