Description
UMR106-01 osteoblastic cells are a model for studying bone mineralization. We have shown that mineralization is temporally synchronized within cultures grown under defined conditions . Cells are plated at time zero and differentiate into osteoblastic phenotype by 64 h later. If an exogenous phosphate source is added to the cultures, the cells form and deposit hydroxyapatite mineral within distinct extracellular supramolecular lipid protein complexes termed biomineralization foci (BMF) starting 12 h later. Mineralization is largely complete by 24 h later (88 h after plating). We have also shown that AEBSF, covalent serine protease inhibitor, blocks mineralization within BMF and inhibits the fragmentation of several proteins related to biomineralization. The present experiment was designed to test whether AEBSF treatment for 12 h has an effect on transcription by UMR106-01 osteoblastic cells. AEBSF is known to inactivate several serine proteases including SKI-1 (site 1, subtilisin kexin protease-1).SKI-1 functions intracellularly to activate transmembrane bound transcription factor precursors releasing the transcriptionally active N-terminal portions to imported into the nucleus. Thus, if AEBSF blocks transcription of mineralization related genes, it would support a role for SKI-1 in gene regulation in mineralizing UMR106-01 osteoblastic cells.

Description
Skeletal muscle adapts to exercise training of various modes, intensities and durations with a programmed gene expression response. This study dissects the independent and combined effects of exercise mode, intensity and duration to identify which exercise has the most positive effects on skeletal muscle health. Full details on exercise groups can be found in: Kraus et al Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2001 Oct;33(10):1774-84 and Bateman et al Am J Cardiol. 2011 Sep 15;108(6):838-44.
Publication Title
Metabolite signatures of exercise training in human skeletal muscle relate to mitochondrial remodelling and cardiometabolic fitness.

Description
The rediscovery of estrogen receptor (ESR1) mutations in metastatic breast cancer is current clinical scenario. We have modeled the three most frequent ESR1 mutations using stable lentiviral vectors in human breast cancer cell lines, and determined that they confer relative resistance to tamoxifen (Tam) in a cell-type specific manner due to distinct epigenetic changes. Resistance was only observed with concomitant engagement and activation of the insulin growth factor signaling pathway (IGF1R). The ESR1 mutants also exhibited enhanced binding with insulin growth factor receptor beta (IGF1R). The selective estrogen degrader, fulvestrant, significantly reduced the anchorage-independent growth of ESR1 mutant-expressing cells, while the combination treatment with the mTOR inhibitor everolimus, restored Tam sensitivity. Since we detected relatively high frequencies of these three mutations in primary breast tumors, our results suggest that clinical targeted sequencing of both primary and metastatic tumors may be justified and comination therapies considered.
Publication Title
ESR1 mutations affect anti-proliferative responses to tamoxifen through enhanced cross-talk with IGF signaling.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
Purpose of arrays were to determine what the effect of deletion of Mbtps1 gene was on gene expression of osteocytes in bone in vivo. DMP1 cre driver was used to delete the Mbtps1 gene in osteocytes and osteoblasts in bone. We then isolated osteocyte enriched bone particles from 40 week old male mice to determine the effect of this deletion on gene expression. We have previously shown that Mbtps1 is needed for transcription of Phex, DMP1, and MEPE genes in osteoblasts in culture. Arrays showed these genes were reduced as expected in osteocytes in vivo. Controls represent osteocyte enriched bone from 40 week old littermates. Also, as expected, Mbtps1 expression was reduced in these knockout mice

Description
Purpose: Parturition is delayed by approximately 12 hours in transgenic mice expressing human corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) in placenta. The goal of the study was to identify the pathways in reproductive tissues (uterus and placenta) altered by placental expression of human CRH. Methods: Human BAC RP11-366K18 (CHORI) containing human CRH and cis-regulatory region was inserted into the mouse genome by microinjection and random integration to create the BAC1 line. The CRISPR/Cas9 system was used to delete a CRH regulatory element from the BAC1 line to create the CR1 line, eliminating expression of CRH in placenta. Total expression of uterus and placenta by RNA-seq at embryonic day 18.5 were compared between BAC1, CR1, and nontransgenic mice. Results: Genes known to be associated with luteolysis and initiation of parturition (Cav1, Gja1, Oxtr, Ptgs1, Ptgs2) were not differentially expressed in uterus of this model. Conclusions: CRH-mediated delay of parturition is likely independent of luteolysis. Overall design: mRNA-seq was performed on uterus and placenta harvested at embryonic day 18.5 from nontransgenic mice, Tg(BAC1) mice, and Tg(CR1) mice.
