Mouse Sptbn5 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Sptbn5 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Sptbn5 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Sptbn5 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_001370938 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000074899 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 2. 66 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAA stop codon in exon 66 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000156159). Exon 15~17 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Sptbn5 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-250P21 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Exon 15 starts from about 25.37% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 15~17 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 14 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 1113 bp, and the size of intron 17 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 923 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1526 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

No significant tandem repeat is found in the dot plot matrix. So this region is suitable for PCR screening or sequencing analysis. Overview of the GC Content Distribution Window size: 300 bp Sequence 12 Summary: Full Length(8026bp) | A(24.33% 1953) | C(25.74% 2066) | T(22.55% 1810) | G(27.37% 2197) Note: The sequence of homologous arms and cKO region is analyzed to determine the GC content. Significant high GC-content regions are found. It may be difficult to construct this targeting vector.

  • Defining Functional Interactions During Biogenesis of Epithelial Junctions
    ARTICLE Received 11 Dec 2015 | Accepted 13 Oct 2016 | Published 6 Dec 2016 | Updated 5 Jan 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms13542 OPEN Defining functional interactions during biogenesis of epithelial junctions J.C. Erasmus1,*, S. Bruche1,*,w, L. Pizarro1,2,*, N. Maimari1,3,*, T. Poggioli1,w, C. Tomlinson4,J.Lees5, I. Zalivina1,w, A. Wheeler1,w, A. Alberts6, A. Russo2 & V.M.M. Braga1 In spite of extensive recent progress, a comprehensive understanding of how actin cytoskeleton remodelling supports stable junctions remains to be established. Here we design a platform that integrates actin functions with optimized phenotypic clustering and identify new cytoskeletal proteins, their functional hierarchy and pathways that modulate E-cadherin adhesion. Depletion of EEF1A, an actin bundling protein, increases E-cadherin levels at junctions without a corresponding reinforcement of cell–cell contacts. This unexpected result reflects a more dynamic and mobile junctional actin in EEF1A-depleted cells. A partner for EEF1A in cadherin contact maintenance is the formin DIAPH2, which interacts with EEF1A. In contrast, depletion of either the endocytic regulator TRIP10 or the Rho GTPase activator VAV2 reduces E-cadherin levels at junctions. TRIP10 binds to and requires VAV2 function for its junctional localization. Overall, we present new conceptual insights on junction stabilization, which integrate known and novel pathways with impact for epithelial morphogenesis, homeostasis and diseases. 1 National Heart and Lung Institute, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 2 Computing Department, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 3 Bioengineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 4 Department of Surgery & Cancer, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

  • Placenta-Derived Exosomes Continuously Increase in Maternal
    Sarker et al. Journal of Translational Medicine 2014, 12:204 http://www.translational-medicine.com/content/12/1/204 RESEARCH Open Access Placenta-derived exosomes continuously increase in maternal circulation over the first trimester of pregnancy Suchismita Sarker1, Katherin Scholz-Romero1, Alejandra Perez2, Sebastian E Illanes1,2,3, Murray D Mitchell1, Gregory E Rice1,2 and Carlos Salomon1,2* Abstract Background: Human placenta releases specific nanovesicles (i.e. exosomes) into the maternal circulation during pregnancy, however, the presence of placenta-derived exosomes in maternal blood during early pregnancy remains to be established. The aim of this study was to characterise gestational age related changes in the concentration of placenta-derived exosomes during the first trimester of pregnancy (i.e. from 6 to 12 weeks) in plasma from women with normal pregnancies. Methods: A time-series experimental design was used to establish pregnancy-associated changes in maternal plasma exosome concentrations during the first trimester. A series of plasma were collected from normal healthy women (10 patients) at 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 weeks of gestation (n = 70). We measured the stability of these vesicles by quantifying and observing their protein and miRNA contents after the freeze/thawing processes. Exosomes were isolated by differential and buoyant density centrifugation using a sucrose continuous gradient and characterised by their size distribution and morphology using the nanoparticles tracking analysis (NTA; Nanosight™) and electron microscopy (EM), respectively. The total number of exosomes and placenta-derived exosomes were determined by quantifying the immunoreactive exosomal marker, CD63 and a placenta-specific marker (Placental Alkaline Phosphatase PLAP).

Abstract To provide a better understanding of dementia at the molecular level, this study aimed to identify the genes and key pathways associated with dementia by using integrated bioinformatics analysis. Based on the expression profiling by high throughput sequencing dataset GSE153960 derived from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between patients with dementia and healthy controls were identified. With DEGs, we performed a series of functional enrichment analyses. Then, a protein–protein interaction (PPI) network, modules, miRNA-hub gene regulatory network and TF-hub gene regulatory network was constructed, analyzed and visualized, with which the hub genes miRNAs and TFs nodes were screened out. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed by using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis.

In most livestock herds, an important issue is controlling the increase in inbreeding coefficient. While this remains a large motive to genotype, producers are often unaware of the other benefits that genotyping could bring. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that SNP chips could be used as an effective herd management tool by utilizing a population of Italian Holstein-Friesian cattle. After filtering, the total number 643 Rev Mex Cienc Pecu 2019;10(3):643-663 of animals and SNPs retained for analyses were 44 and 27,365, respectively. The principal component analyses (PCA) were able to identify a sire and origin-of-sire effect within the herd, while determining that sires do not influence individual genomic selection index values. The inbreeding coefficients calculated from genotypes (FIS) provided a glimpse into the herd’s heterozygosity and determined that the genetic variability is being well maintained.

  • Αii-Spectrin and Βii-Spectrin Do Not Affect Tgfβ1-Induced Myofibroblast Differentiation
    Cell and Tissue Research https://doi.org/10.1007/s00441-018-2842-x REGULAR ARTICLE αII-spectrin and βII-spectrin do not affect TGFβ1-induced myofibroblast differentiation Bram Piersma1 & Olaf Y. Wouters1 & Ruud A. Bank1 Received: 16 May 2017 /Accepted: 10 April 2018 # The Author(s) 2018 Abstract Mechanosensing of fibroblasts plays a key role in the development of fibrosis. So far, no effective treatments are available to treat this devastating disorder. Spectrins regulate cell morphology and are potential mechanosensors in a variety of non-erythroid cells, but little is known about the role of spectrins in fibroblasts. We investigate whether αII- and βII-spectrin are required for the phenotypic properties of adult human dermal (myo)fibroblasts. Knockdown of αII- or βII-spectrin in fibroblasts did not affect cell adhesion, cell size and YAP nuclear/cytosolic localization. We further investigated whether αII- and βII-spectrin play a role in the phenotypical switch from fibroblasts to myofibroblasts under the influence of the pro-fibrotic cytokine TGFβ1. Knockdown of spectrins did not affect myofibroblast formation, nor did we observe changes in the organization of αSMA stress fibers. Focal adhesion assembly was unaffected by spectrin deficiency, as was collagen type I mRNA expression and protein deposition. Wound closure was unaffected as well, showing that important functional properties of myofibroblasts are unchanged without αII- or βII-spectrin. In fact, fibroblasts stimulated with TGFβ1 demonstrated significantly lower endogenous mRNA levels of αII- and βII-spectrin. Taken together, despite the diverse roles of spectrins in a variety of other cells, αII- and βII-spectrin do not regulate cell adhesion, cell size and YAP localization in human dermal fibroblasts and are not required for the dermal myofibroblast phenotypical switch.
