RNA from two murine mesothelioma cell lines (AC29 and AB1) was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix Microarrays to compare gene expression. Both mesothelioma cell lines were established following intraperitoneal introduction of crocidolite (asbestos) fibers (Davis et al. 1992) in CBA mice (AC29 cell line), and BALB/c mice (AB1).

Transcriptional network analysis in muscle reveals AP-1 as a partner of PGC-1α in the regulation of the hypoxic gene program.
Specimen part, Treatment
View SamplesSkeletal muscle tissue shows an extraordinary cellular plasticity, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are still poorly understood. Here we use a combination of experimental and computational approaches to unravel the complex transcriptional network of muscle cell plasticity centered on the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor coactivator 1 (PGC-1), a regulatory nexus in endurance training adaptation. By integrating data on genome-wide binding of PGC-1 and gene expression upon PGC-1 over-expression with comprehensive computational prediction of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), we uncover a hitherto underestimated number of transcription factor partners involved in mediating PGC-1 action. In particular, principal component analysis of TFBSs at PGC-1 binding regions predicts that, besides the well-known role of the estrogen-related receptor (ERR), the activator protein-1 complex (AP-1) plays a major role in regulating the PGC-1-controlled gene program of hypoxia response. Our findings thus reveal the complex transcriptional network of muscle cell plasticity controlled by PGC-1.

View SamplesThe peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor co-activator 1 (PGC-1) coordinates the transcriptional network response to promote an improved endurance capacity in skeletal muscle, e.g. by co-activating the estrogen-related receptor (ERR) in the regulation of oxidative substrate metabolism. Despite a close functional relationship, the interaction between these two proteins has not been studied on a genomic level. We now mapped the genome-wide binding of ERR to DNA in skeletal muscle cell line with elevated PGC-1 and linked the DNA recruitment to global PGC-1 target gene regulation. We found that, surprisingly, ERR co-activation by PGC-1 is only observed in the minority of all PGC-1 recruitment sites. Nevertheless, a majority of PGC-1 target gene expression is dependent on ERR. Intriguingly, the interaction between these two proteins is controlled by the genomic context of response elements, in particular the relative GC and CpG content, monomeric and dimeric repeat binding site configuration for ERR, and adjacent recruitment of the transcription factor SP1. These findings thus not only reveal an unprecedented insight into the regulatory network underlying muscle cell plasticity, but also strongly link the genomic context of DNA response elements to control transcription factor - co-regulator interactions.
