To study mechanisms of long bone growth regulation, p21 misexpression was induced in the left hindlimb of mouse embryos using an intersectional approach that requires both Cre and (r)tTA activity. Doxycycline was provided to the pregnant female at embryonic day (E)12.5 to activate the transgene, and embryos were collected at E17.5. Distal femur and proximal tibia growth plates were dissected out, keeping left and right separated, deprived of perichondrium and flash frozen. After RNA extraction, mRNA libraries were prepared and all samples were deep sequenced in parallel Overall design: 6 samples (left and right growth plates from embryos #386, #387, #388) were sequenced in parallel

View SamplesGenetic factors contribute to the development of ischemic stroke but their identity remains largely unknown. We tested the association with ischemic stroke of 210 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with pathways functionally related to stroke. We observed an association between the rs7956957 SNP in LRP1 and next performed microarrays analysis in healthy individuals to investigate possible associations of LRP genotypes with the expression of other genes.

View SamplesPhosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)-a inhibitors are clinically active in squamous carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck (H&N) bearing mutations or amplification of PIK3CA. We aimed to identify potential mechanism of resistance and have observed that SCCs cells overcome the antitumor effects of the PI3Ka inhibitor BYL719 by maintaining PI3K-independent activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). The persistent mTOR activation is mediated by the tyrosine kinase receptor AXL. We found that AXL is overexpressed in resistant tumors, dimerizes with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), phosphorylates EGFR tyrosine 1173, resulting in activation of phospholipase C? (PLC?)- protein kinase C (PKC) that, in turn, activates mTOR. Finally, simultaneous treatment with PI3Ka and either EGFR, AXL or PKC inhibitors reverts this resistance. Overall design: RNAseq from acquired resistant cells CAL33B, K180B were compared to their parental counterpart CAL33 and K180, respectively. K180 is a shortcut of KYSE180, and B stands for BYL719. Duplicate of parental sensitive cells and K180B, and triplicate for CAL33B.

View SamplesAlthough liganded nuclear receptors have been established to regulate RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-dependent transcription units, their role in regulating Pol III-transcribed DNA repeats remains largely unknown. Here we report that ~2-3% of the ~100,000-200,000 total human DR2 Alu repeats located in proximity to activated Pol II transcription units are activated by the retinoic acid receptor (RAR) in human embryonic stem cells to generate Pol III-dependent RNAs. These transcripts are processed, initially in a DICER-dependent fashion, into small RNAs (~28-65 nt) referred to as repeat-induced RNAs that cause the degradation of a subset of crucial stem-cell mRNAs, including Nanog mRNA, which modulate exit from the proliferative stem-cell state. This regulation requires AGO3-dependent accumulation of processed DR2 Alu transcripts and the subsequent recruitment of AGO3-associated decapping complexes to the target mRNA. In this way, the RAR-dependent and Pol III-dependent DR2 Alu transcriptional events in stem cells functionally complement the Pol II-dependent neuronal transcriptional program. Overall design: RNA-sequencing of polyA selected RNA molecules in NTera2/D1 cells and Global Run On (GRO) assay followed by high throughput sequencing (GRO-seq).
