ABSTRACT CHAROENPANICH, ADISRI. Analyses of Human ABSTRACT CHAROENPANICH, ADISRI. Analyses of Human Adipose Derived Stem Cells and Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Functional Tissue Engineering using Biomimetic Physical Stimuli. (Under the direction of Elizabeth G. Loboa.) Autologous stem-cell-based tissue engineering holds great potential for treating trauma and pathologies in a patient specific manner. Adult stem cells can be derived from various source tissues such as bone marrow, epidermal tissue, and adipose tissue. Initially, bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) received the most attention for musculoskeletal tissue engineering applications given their direct lineage capability. More recently however, adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) have received increasing interest for tissue engineering applications due to their relative ease of harvest, abundance, and multi- lineage differentiation potential. To better implement the use of stem and progenitor cells for cell-based therapy and tissue repair, understanding of how these cells are committed to, or differentiate into, a specific cell lineage is needed. Previous studies have shown the ability of hMSC and hASC to differentiate into bone, fibrous tissue, cartilage, and smooth muscle cells in response to appropriate chemical and/or mechanical stimuli. In this dissertation, the effect of allograft extracellular matrix, soluble inductive factors, and a specific mechanical stimulus (10% uniaxial cyclic tensile strain) on hASC/hMSC osteo- and chondrogenic differentiation and gene expression were examined. In the first study, hASC were seeded into a decellularized human meniscal allograft to determine the effects of inherent soluble cues provided by the extracellular matrix (ECM) on hASC viability, proliferation, differentiation and histology of the hASC-seeded meniscus. In the second study, hASC osteogenic differentiation and response to combined chemical and mechanical stimuli were investigated. Gene expression profiles of proliferating or osteogenically induced hASC in 3D collagen I culture in the presence and absence of 10% uniaxial cyclic tensile strain were examined using microarray analysis. In the final study, hMSC isolated from aged, postmenopausal osteoporotic donors were cultured in three-dimensional (3D) collagen constructs and analyzed for changes in mRNA expression in response to 10% uniaxial cyclic tensile strain in an attempt to identify potential mechanisms underlying the use of appropriate mechanical loading for prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. The results of the first study show promising initial results of the use of hASC combined with a decellularized meniscal allograft for improved approaches for meniscal allograft transplants. The following studies of hASC and hMSC in response to tensile strain expanded findings from the first study to determine the effects of combined chemical and mechanical stimuli for regeneration of other musculoskeletal tissues in addition to fibrocartilage, with particular emphasis on bone formation. Application of cyclic tensile strain at different magnitudes is a stimulus for fibrous tissue, fibrocartilage and bone formation during normal secondary fracture healing or distraction osteogenesis. Specifically, our lab has previously shown that 10% cyclic tensile enhances osteogenesis of both hASC and hMSC in vitro. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this potential are not yet known. The research performed in this thesis identified angiogenesis as a potential mechanism in response of hMSC and hASC to 10% cyclic tensile strain. Potential key genes identified to play important roles in hASC and hMSC in response to 10% tensile strain included PDLIM4, an actin binding protein. PDLIM4 knockdown was also shown to increase hMSC osteogenesis via enhanced expression of bone marker genes and alkaline phosphatase activity. © Copyright 2013 by Adisri Charoenpanich All Rights Reserved Analyses of Human Adipose Derived Stem Cells and Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Functional Tissue Engineering using Biomimetic Physical Stimuli by Adisri Charoenpanich A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of North Carolina State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Biomedical Engineering Raleigh, North Carolina 2013 APPROVED BY: _______________________________ ______________________________ Dr. Elizabeth Loboa Polefka Dr. Albert Banes Committee Chair _______________________________ ______________________________ Dr. Susan Bernacki Dr. Gregory McCarty ________________________________ Dr. Jeffrey T.

Abstract Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is one of the most common types of malignancy of the urinary system. The pathogenesis and effective diagnosis of ccRCC have become popular topics for research in the previous decade. In the current study, an integrated bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify core genes associated in ccRCC. An expression dataset (GSE105261) was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, and included 26 ccRCC and 9 normal kideny samples. Assessment of the microarray dataset led to the recognition of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which was subsequently used for pathway and gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis.

    Supplemental information to Mammadova-Bach et al., “Laminin α1 orchestrates VEGFA functions in the ecosystem of colorectal carcinogenesis” Supplemental material and methods Cloning of the villin-LMα1 vector The plasmid pBS-villin-promoter containing the 3.5 Kb of the murine villin promoter, the first non coding exon, 5.5 kb of the first intron and 15 nucleotides of the second villin exon, was generated by S. Robine (Institut Curie, Paris, France). The EcoRI site in the multi cloning site was destroyed by fill in ligation with T4 polymerase according to the manufacturer`s instructions (New England Biolabs, Ozyme, Saint Quentin en Yvelines, France). Site directed mutagenesis (GeneEditor in vitro Site-Directed Mutagenesis system, Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France) was then used to introduce a BsiWI site before the start codon of the villin coding sequence using the 5’ phosphorylated primer: 5’CCTTCTCCTCTAGGCTCGCGTACGATGACGTCGGACTTGCGG3’. A double strand annealed oligonucleotide, 5’GGCCGGACGCGTGAATTCGTCGACGC3’ and 5’GGCCGCGTCGACGAATTCACGC GTCC3’ containing restriction site for MluI, EcoRI and SalI were inserted in the NotI site (present in the multi cloning site), generating the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. The SV40 polyA region of the pEGFP plasmid (Clontech, Ozyme, Saint Quentin Yvelines, France) was amplified by PCR using primers 5’GGCGCCTCTAGATCATAATCAGCCATA3’ and 5’GGCGCCCTTAAGATACATTGATGAGTT3’ before subcloning into the pGEMTeasy vector (Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France). After EcoRI digestion, the SV40 polyA fragment was purified with the NucleoSpin Extract II kit (Machery-Nagel, Hoerdt, France) and then subcloned into the EcoRI site of the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. Site directed mutagenesis was used to introduce a BsiWI site (5’ phosphorylated AGCGCAGGGAGCGGCGGCCGTACGATGCGCGGCAGCGGCACG3’) before the initiation codon and a MluI site (5’ phosphorylated 1 CCCGGGCCTGAGCCCTAAACGCGTGCCAGCCTCTGCCCTTGG3’) after the stop codon in the full length cDNA coding for the mouse LMα1 in the pCIS vector (kindly provided by P.

  • RNA Expression Patterns in Serum Microvesicles from Patients With
    Noerholm et al. BMC Cancer 2012, 12:22 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2407/12/22 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access RNA expression patterns in serum microvesicles from patients with glioblastoma multiforme and controls Mikkel Noerholm1,2*, Leonora Balaj1, Tobias Limperg1,3, Afshin Salehi1,4, Lin Dan Zhu1, Fred H Hochberg1, Xandra O Breakefield1, Bob S Carter1,4 and Johan Skog1,2 Abstract Background: RNA from exosomes and other microvesicles contain transcripts of tumour origin. In this study we sought to identify biomarkers of glioblastoma multiforme in microvesicle RNA from serum of affected patients. Methods: Microvesicle RNA from serum from patients with de-novo primary glioblastoma multiforme (N = 9) and normal controls (N = 7) were analyzed by microarray analysis. Samples were collected according to protocols approved by the Institutional Review Board. Differential expressions were validated by qRT-PCR in a separate set of samples (N = 10 in both groups). Results: Expression profiles of microvesicle RNA correctly separated individuals in two groups by unsupervised clustering. The most significant differences pertained to down-regulated genes (121 genes > 2-fold down) in the glioblastoma multiforme patient microvesicle RNA, validated by qRT-PCR on several genes. Overall, yields of microvesicle RNA from patients was higher than from normal controls, but the additional RNA was primarily of size < 500 nt. Gene ontology of the down-regulated genes indicated these are coding for ribosomal proteins and genes related to ribosome production. Conclusions: Serum microvesicle RNA from patients with glioblastoma multiforme has significantly down- regulated levels of RNAs coding for ribosome production, compared to normal healthy controls, but a large overabundance of RNA of unknown origin with size < 500 nt.

WI- 38, ZR-75-1, SK-BR-3 and MDA-MB-436 cells were grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Invitrogen) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). DNA Methylation analysis. We bisulfite-treated 2 µg of genomic DNA using Epitect bisulfite kit (Qiagen). Bisulfite converted DNA was amplified with bisulfite primers listed in Table S3. All primers incorporated a T7 promoter tag, and PCR conditions are available upon request. We analyzed PCR products by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry after in vitro transcription and specific cleavage (EpiTYPER by Sequenom®). For each amplicon, we analyzed two independent DNA samples and several CG sites in the CpG Island. Design of primers and selection of best promoter region to assess (approx. 500 bp) were done by a combination of UCSC Genome Browser (http://genome.ucsc.edu) and MethPrimer (http://www.urogene.org). All the primers used are listed (Table S3). NB: MAGEC2 CpG analysis have been done with a combination of two CpG island identified in the gene core. Analysis of RNA allelic expression profiles (based on Human SNP Array 6.0) DNA and RNA hybridizations were normalized by Genotyping console.

The propagation of the most ancient SVA type A took place about 13.5 Myrs ago, and the youngest SVA types appeared in the human genome after the chimpanzee divergence. Functional enrichment analysis of genes associated with SVA insertions demonstrated their strong link to multiple ontological categories attributed to brain function and the disorders. SVA types that expanded their presence in the human genome at different stages of hominoid life history were also associated with progressively evolving behavioural features that indicated a potential impact of SVA propagation on a cognitive ability of a modern human.

  • A Rapid Transcriptome Response Is Associated with Desiccation Resistance in Aerially-Exposed Killifish Embryos
    A Rapid Transcriptome Response Is Associated with Desiccation Resistance in Aerially-Exposed Killifish Embryos Ange`le Tingaud-Sequeira1¤a, Juan-Jose´ Lozano2, Cinta Zapater1, David Otero1, Michael Kube3¤b, Richard Reinhardt3¤c, Joan Cerda` 1* 1 Institut de Recerca i Tecnologia Agroalimenta`ries (IRTA)-Institut de Cie`ncies del Mar, CSIC, Barcelona, Spain, 2 Bioinformatics Platform, CIBERHED, Barcelona, Spain, 3 Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Berlin-Dahlem, Germany Abstract Delayed hatching is a form of dormancy evolved in some amphibian and fish embryos to cope with environmental conditions transiently hostile to the survival of hatchlings or larvae. While diapause and cryptobiosis have been extensively studied in several animals, very little is known concerning the molecular mechanisms involved in the sensing and response of fish embryos to environmental cues. Embryos of the euryhaline killifish Fundulus heteroclitus advance dvelopment when exposed to air but hatching is suspended until flooding with seawater. Here, we investigated how transcriptome regulation underpins this adaptive response by examining changes in gene expression profiles of aerially incubated killifish embryos at ,100% relative humidity, compared to embryos continuously flooded in water. The results confirm that mid-gastrula embryos are able to stimulate development in response to aerial incubation, which is accompanied by the differential expression of at least 806 distinct genes during a 24 h period. Most of these genes (,70%) appear to be differentially expressed within 3 h of aerial exposure, suggesting a broad and rapid transcriptomic response. This response seems to include an early sensing phase, which overlaps with a tissue remodeling and activation of embryonic development phase involving many regulatory and metabolic pathways.
