The instrinsic regenerative capacity of human fetal cardiac mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) has not been fully characterised. Here we demonstrate that we can expand cells with characteristics of cardiovascular progenitor cells from the MSC population of human fetal hearts with only minor fluctuations over time in culture (from day 15 to day 48).

View SamplesLong-term treatment of Kasumi-1 cells at clinically attained doses of dasatinib led to decreased drug-sensitivity by means of IC50 values (relative to treatment-naive cells). Changes were paralled by profound alterations in c-KIT expression and cell signaling signatures. Upon brief discontinuation of dasatinib treatment, these alterations reversed and drug sensitivity was restored.
Transitory dasatinib-resistant states in KIT(mut) t(8;21) acute myeloid leukemia cells correlate with altered KIT expression.

View SamplesThe polyadenosine RNA binding proteins (Pabs) represent one class of RNA binding proteins that play critical roles in gene expression. This class includes the well-studied nuclear and cytoplasmic Pabs, PABPN1 and PABPC1, respectively, as well as the newly characterized nuclear Pab, zinc finger CCCH-type containing #14, or ZC3H14. ZC3H14 was recently linked to a form of intellectual disability, suggesting a critical role for ZC3H14 in neurons; however, the post-transcriptional function of ZC3H14 is unknown. In this study, we performed a microarray analysis of cells depleted of ZC3H14 or PABPN1 in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. These results revealed that PABPN1 significantly affected ~17% of expressed transcripts as compared to ZC3H14, which affected ~1% of expressed transcripts, suggesting that ZC3H14 has specific mRNA targets. The differentially expressed mRNAs identified in this analysis not only provide information about the classes and types of transcripts that are regulated by these proteins, but also represent a set of transcripts that could be directly bound by ZC3H14 and/or PABPN1.

View SamplesOur study demonstrated that e-cigarettes, both with and without nicotine, induced sex-dependent gene expression change. This RNA-seq study examined the expression profiles of brain frontal cortex samples from mice exposed to classic tobacco flavored bluâ„¢ e-cigarettes during gestation and lactation. Overall design: Brains were extracted and sectioned from ~1-month-old male and female offspring the week following exposure, RNA was isolated and purified from frontal cotrex tissues, and gene expression profiles were analyzed by RNA Sequencing.

View SamplesThe BM-derived CD45+/Sca1+ cells are haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells that have the ability to circulate and migrate and engraft to the muscle tissue, and therefore they are of particular interest. Notably, these cells retain their haematopoietic potential, as revealed both by in vitro and in vivo assays; but they also acquire myogenic potential, as shown by their ability to participate in muscle regeneration. Whether, this latter remarkable ability is the result of the reprogramming of the BM-CD45+/Sca1+ cells and the activation of a myogenic molecular program within these cells, remains controversial. This study aims to clarify this aspect of the process, investigating the role of the muscle microenviroment and key myogenic transcription factors.

View SamplesThe aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms implicated in this mouse model of nemaline myopathy, and to further compare the molecular disease response in different skeletal muscles. For this purpose, snap frozen skeletla muscle specimens from wild type and transgenic for alpha tropomyosin slow mice were studied. Five different muscle types were used (diaphragm, plantaris, extensor digitorum longus, tibialis anterior, gastrocnemus). Mice were sacrificed between 7 and 10 months. RNA pools from 3-5 animals were created and each pool was hybridized to a U74Av2 Affymetrix GeneChip. Datasets from 36 GeneChips were included in this study.
