View SamplesDevelopment requires the cooperation of tissue-specific and ubiquitously expressed transcription factors, such as Sp-family members. However, the molecular details of how ubiquitous factors participate in developmental processes are still unclear. We previously showed that during the differentiation of embryonic stem cells lacking Sp1 DNA binding activity (Sp1deltaDBD/deltaDBD cells), early blood progenitors are formed. However, gene expression during differentiation becomes progressively deregulated and terminal differentiation is severely compromised. Here we studied the cooperation of Sp1 and its closest paralogue Sp3 in hematopoietic development and demonstrate that Sp1 and Sp3 binding sites largely overlap. Sp3 cooperates with Sp1deltaDBD/deltaDBD but is unable to support hematopoiesis in the complete absence of Sp1. Using single cell gene expression analysis, we show that the lack of Sp1 DNA binding leads to a distortion of cell fate decision timing, indicating that stable chromatin bi nding of Sp1 is required to maintain robust differentiation trajectories. Overall design: RNA-Seq in ESC, Flk, HE1, HE2 and progenitor cells with WT, Sp1deltaDBD or Sp3KO

View SamplesThe mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a master regulator of cell growth that is commonly deregulated in human diseases. Here we find that mTORC1 controls a transcriptional program encoding amino acid transporters and metabolic enzymes through a mechanism also used to regulate protein synthesis. Bioinformatic analysis of mTORC1-responsive mRNAs identified a promoter element recognized by activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), a key effector of the integrated stress response. ATF4 translation is normally induced by phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 alpha (eIF2a) through a mechanism that requires upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the ATF4 5'' UTR. mTORC1 also controls ATF4 translation through uORFs, but independent of changes in eIF2a phosphorylation. mTORC1 instead employs the 4E-binding protein (4E-BP) family of translation repressors. These results link mTORC1-regulated demand for protein synthesis with an ATF4-regulated transcriptional program that controls the supply of amino acids to the translation machinery. Overall design: RNA-seq analysis of wild-type and ATF4-null HEK293T cells treated with Torin 1 or tunicamycin for 6 h, and ribosome profiling analysis of HEK293T cells treated with Torin 1 for 24 h.

View SamplesBased on preliminary data demonstrating that macrophages are critical regulators of Helicobacter pylori colonization and gastric pathology in mice, we sought to investigate how macrophages may serve as bacterial reservoirs of intracellular H. pylori. Overall design: BMDM were isolated from WT and PPARg-/- mice and cultured with M-CSF for 7 days to promote macrophage differentiation. Fully differentiation macrophages were challenged with H. pylori strains SS1 at an MOI of 10 for 15 minutes. Extracellular bacteria was then eliminated by gentamycin treatment. Cells were collected at 0, 60, 120, 240, 360 and 720 minutes post gentamycin treatment to ascertain whole transcriptome differential gene expression during infection.

View SamplesMice lacking the zinc finger transcription factor Specificity protein 3 (Sp3) die prenatally in the C57Bl/6 background. To elucidate the cause of mortality we analyzed the potential role of Sp3 in embryonic heart development. Sp3 null hearts display defective looping at E10.5, and at E14.5 the Sp3 null mutants have developed a range of severe cardiac malformations. In an attempt to position Sp3 in the cardiac developmental hierarchy, we analysed the expression patterns of >15 marker genes in Sp3 null hearts. Expression of Cardiac ankyrin repeat protein (Carp) was downregulated prematurely after E12.5, while expression of the other marker genes was not affected. ChIP analysis revealed that Sp3 is bound to the Carp promoter region in vivo. Microarray analysis indicates that small molecule metabolism and cell-cell interactions are the most significantly affected biological processes in E12.5 Sp3 null myocardium. Since the epicardium showed distension from the myocardium, we studied expression of Wt1, a marker for epicardial cells. Wt1 expression was diminished in epicardium-derived cells in the myocardium of Sp3 null hearts. We conclude that Sp3 is required for normal cardiac development, and suggest that it has a crucial role in myocardial differentiation. (

View SamplesCg.5XFAD females (MMRRC Stock No #34848-JAX) were bred to males from BXD strains. The resulting F1 progeny were monitored throughout their lifepan to evaluate the effect of genetic background on cognitive and pathological traits. Samples here come from various AD-BXD lines at either 6 or 14 months of age. An earlier dataset of similar design (plus Non-transgenic littermates) was deposited as GSE101144. Ntg littermates of mice sampled here will be deposited as a separate GEO series. Overall design: 88 AD samples. For final by-strain analysis, samples were averaged into strain/age/genotype/sex groups (For example, all D2 6mo 5XFAD males were averaged for final by-strain analysis)

View SamplesCorrelative controls (influences of one organ over another organ) of seeds over maternal growth are one of the most obvious phenotypic expressions of the trade-off between growth and reproduction. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we characterize the physiological and molecular effects of correlative inhibition by seeds on Arabidopsis thaliana inflorescences, i.e. global proliferative arrest (GPA) during which all maternal growth ceases upon the production of a given number of seeds. We use laser-assisted microdissection and RNA-seq or Affymetrix GeneChip hybridizations to compare sterile growing, fertile growing and fertile arrested meristems or whole inflorescences. In shoot tissues, we detected the induction of stress- and senescence-related gene expression upon fruit production and GPA, and a drop in chlorophyll levels - suggestive of altered source-sink relationships between vegetative shoot and reproductive tissues. Levels of shoot reactive oxygen species, however, strongly decreased upon GPA - a phenomenon that is associated with bud dormancy in some perennials. Indeed, gene expression changes in arrested apical inflorescences after fruit removal resembled changes observed in axillary buds following release from apical dominance. This suggests that GPA represents a form of bud dormancy, and that dominance is gradually transferred from growing inflorescences to maturing seeds - allowing offspring control over maternal resources, simultaneously restricting offspring number.
