View SamplesParathyroid hormone (PTH) plays an essential role in regulating calcium and bone homeostasis in the adult, but whether PTH is required at all for regulating fetal-placental mineral homeostasis is uncertain. To address this we treated Pth-null mice in utero with 1 nmol PTH (1-84) or saline and examined placental calcium transfer 90 minutes later. It was found that placental calcium transfer increased in Pth-null fetuses treated with PTH as compared to Pth-null fetuses treated with saline. Subsequently, to determine the effect of PTH treatment on placental gene expression, in a separate experiment, 90 minutes after the fetal injections the placentas were removed for subsequent RNA extraction and microarray analysis.

View SamplesEstrogens are an important regulator of breast cancer disease progression, and they function by binding the estrogen receptor- (ER) to regulate changes in gene expression. ER is able to both activate and inhibit gene transcription in a gene-specific manner and do so by binding target DNA sequences and recruiting coactivators and corepressors which can modulate the chromatin environment. Silencing mediator of retinoic acid and thyroid hormone receptor (SMRT) is known to act as coactivator and corepressor of ER in a gene-specific manner.
The SMRT coregulator enhances growth of estrogen receptor-α-positive breast cancer cells by promotion of cell cycle progression and inhibition of apoptosis.

View SamplesMyelopoiesis is impaired in Raptor-deleted mice (CreER-Rptor-flox/flox). To evaluate the transcriptional changes in myeloid precursors , we isolated CMP (LinSca-1c-Kit+CD34+FcRII/IIImid), GMP (LinSca-1c-Kit+CD34+FcRII/IIIhigh) and Lin (B220, Ly6C, Ly6G, CD3, Ter-119) negative cells (Lin) from bone marrow of WT or CreER-Rptor-flox/flox mice. RNA was isolated from CMP and GMP immediately after sorting and Lin- cells were cultured for 12 hours with M-CSF (10 ng/mL) in 10% FBS and 1% P/S DMEM before RNA isolation.

View SamplesCD8+ DCs play key role in CD8+ T cell priming, however, the underlying signaling mechansim is unclear. We used a data-driven network-based systems biology approach and identified Hippo signaling kinases as key selective modualtors in CD8+ DCs. We focused on Mst1/Stk4 to further investigate the novel function of Hippo signaling in CD8+ DCs. All transcriptional profies were evalated by microarray.

View SamplesDifferential gene expression was analyzed for FACS sorted Math1::Cre; ROSA-tdTomato from hand dissected cochlear nuclei of wild type and Hoxa2/Hoxb2 mutant mice Overall design: In order to investigate the role of Hoxa2 and Hoxb2 transcription factors in a subset of cells of the cochlear nucleus, we generated double conditional knock-out by crossing the deleter line Math1::Cre crossed with Rosa tdTomato; Hoxa2fl/fl; Hoxb2fl/fl and Rosa tdTomato wild type background. FACS sorted cells from hand dissected cochlear nuclei were than processed and RNA-seq performed (see extract protocol and library construction protocol).
