Id2 is induced by TGF-β and is required for development of cDC1s but is not required for development of cDC2s (30, 31). Furthermore, the balance between Id2 and E2-2 influences cDC1 and pDC development (32–34), and exogenous TGF-β applied to BM progenitors accelerates differentiation to cDCs rather than pDCs (35). Modest decreases in pDC and cDC2 frequency have been observed in mice with conditional deletion of Zeb2 in + CD11c cells, leading to the interpretation that Zeb2 regulates commitment of pDC and cDC2 lineages by controlling Id2 ex- pression (18). However, expression of CD11c occurs coordinately with lineage specification or, in the case of the committed cDC1 progenitor, actually occurs after specification (9). Thus, condi- + tional deletion of Zeb2 in CD11c cells may not fully eliminate the actions of that transcription factor during lineage specification. To address these issues, we used several systems to control the timing of Zeb2 deletion during DC development, and we find that, in contrast to Scott et al. (18), deletion in early progenitors regulates specification to the pDC lineage but not to the cDC2 lineage. This finding is consistent with reports that Id2 is required for the de- velopment of cDC1s but not cDC2s (30, 36). Finally, we found that loss of Zeb2 impaired both the expression of M-CSFR and the development of Ly-6Chi monocytes, implicating Zeb2 activity in the diversification of multiple myeloid lineages. Results We generated mice in which Zeb2 is conditionally deleted in cells expressing Cre recombinase driven by the Itgax promoter (CD11c- Cre) (14). Compared with Zeb2-sufficient (Zeb2fl/fl)mice,CD11c- Cre–driven Zeb2-deficient [Zeb2fl/fl;CD11c-Cre(tg)] mice showed substantially decreased pDC frequency in the spleen and skin- draining LN but not in the BM (Fig. 1A). Within the cDC com- partment, Zeb2-deficient mice showed an increased ratio of splenic cDC1s to cDC2s (identified by expression of CD24 and Sirp-α, respectively) and an increased ratio of equivalent cell types in other organs (Fig. 1 B and C).

  • Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Analysis of KRAS Mutant Cell Lines Ben Yi Tew1,5, Joel K
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis of KRAS mutant cell lines Ben Yi Tew1,5, Joel K. Durand2,5, Kirsten L. Bryant2, Tikvah K. Hayes2, Sen Peng3, Nhan L. Tran4, Gerald C. Gooden1, David N. Buckley1, Channing J. Der2, Albert S. Baldwin2 ✉ & Bodour Salhia1 ✉ Oncogenic RAS mutations are associated with DNA methylation changes that alter gene expression to drive cancer. Recent studies suggest that DNA methylation changes may be stochastic in nature, while other groups propose distinct signaling pathways responsible for aberrant methylation. Better understanding of DNA methylation events associated with oncogenic KRAS expression could enhance therapeutic approaches. Here we analyzed the basal CpG methylation of 11 KRAS-mutant and dependent pancreatic cancer cell lines and observed strikingly similar methylation patterns. KRAS knockdown resulted in unique methylation changes with limited overlap between each cell line. In KRAS-mutant Pa16C pancreatic cancer cells, while KRAS knockdown resulted in over 8,000 diferentially methylated (DM) CpGs, treatment with the ERK1/2-selective inhibitor SCH772984 showed less than 40 DM CpGs, suggesting that ERK is not a broadly active driver of KRAS-associated DNA methylation. KRAS G12V overexpression in an isogenic lung model reveals >50,600 DM CpGs compared to non-transformed controls. In lung and pancreatic cells, gene ontology analyses of DM promoters show an enrichment for genes involved in diferentiation and development. Taken all together, KRAS-mediated DNA methylation are stochastic and independent of canonical downstream efector signaling. These epigenetically altered genes associated with KRAS expression could represent potential therapeutic targets in KRAS-driven cancer. Activating KRAS mutations can be found in nearly 25 percent of all cancers1.

An emerging body of literature highlights a role for myelin plasticity as a prominent type of experience-dependent plasticity in the adult brain. Myelin plasticity is driven by oligodendrocytes (OLs) and their precursor cells (OPCs).

  • Embryonic Development of the Hypothalamic Feeding Circuitry: Transcriptional, Nutritional, and Hormonal Influences
    Minireview Embryonic development of the hypothalamic feeding circuitry: Transcriptional, nutritional, and hormonal influences Harry MacKay*, Alfonso Abizaid ABSTRACT Background: Embryonic neurogenesis and differentiation in the hypothalamic feeding circuitry is under the control of a variety of diffused morphogens and intrinsic transcription factors, leading to the unique structural and functional characteristics of each nucleus. Scope of review: The transcriptional regulation of the development of feeding neuroendocrine systems during the period of embryonic neurogenesis and differentiation will be reviewed here, with a special emphasis on genetic and environmental manipulations that yield an adverse metabolic phenotype. Major conclusions: Emerging data suggest that developmental mechanisms can be perturbed not only by genetic manipulation, but also by manipulations to maternal nutrition during the gestational period, leading to long-lasting behavioral, neurobiological, and metabolic conse- quences. Leptin is neurotrophic in the embryonic brain, and given that it varies in proportion to maternal energy balance, may mediate these effects through an interaction with the mechanisms of hypothalamic development.

Gage, The Salk Institute for Biological Studies, San Diego, CA, and approved May 1, 2013 (received for review September 26, 2012) Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is the most common genetic cause of uniparental disomy (or isodisomy), which is often associated with intellectual disability, but the precise molecular mechanisms un- trisomy rescue (Fig. 1D). Short tandem repeats at various loci derlying impaired cognition remain unclear. Elucidation of these indicated that the Ts21 and euploid lines were isogenic other than mechanisms has been hindered by the lack of a model system that the presence of Ts21 (Fig. 1E). To increase statistical power, contains full trisomy of chromosome 21 (Ts21) in a human genome fibroblasts from a second DS individual were reprogrammed us- that enables normal gene regulation. To overcome this limitation, we ing Sendai virus (12), an RNA virus, which yielded another Ts21 created Ts21-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from two sets of iPSC line (Fig. 1C). All iPSC clones were named according to Ts21 human fibroblasts. One of the fibroblast lines had low level standardized naming procedures (Fig. 1F) (13) and used in all mosaicism for Ts21 and yielded Ts21 iPSCs and an isogenic control experiments.

  • Aberrant Dna Methylation in Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
    ABERRANT DNA METHYLATION IN HUMAN NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Romulo Martin Brena, B.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Dr. Christoph Plass, Adviser Dr. Thomas J. Rosol ____________________________________ Dr. Michael C. Ostrowski Adviser Graduate Program in Molecular Genetics Dr. Gregory A. Otterson Dr. Laura J. Rush ABSTRACT Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Given its impact on human health, extensive research is being conducted in an effort to reduce the global lung cancer death toll. Specifically, much interest has been placed on the development of biomarkers and the discovery of novel prognostic factors. Over the past 2 decades it has become evident that the cancer genome is not only affected by genetic abnormalities, such as mutations, deletions and chromosomal rearrangements, but also by epigenetic changes which, together, contribute to the deregulation of transcription profiles. Epigenetic changes are defined as heritable lesions to the DNA affecting gene expression without altering the primary DNA sequence. These lesions typically involve a genomewide reduction in 5-methylcytosine, increased DNA methylation in gene promoter sequences and substitutions in histone tail modifications. Epigenetic changes have been shown to interact with one another, resulting in genomic instability, silencing of tumor suppressor genes, activation of oncogenes and derepression of transposable elements. As opposed to the irreversible nature of genetic lesions, epigenetic lesions can be reversed. Because of their reversibility, epigenetic alterations have become an attractive target for new therapies, which has resulted in the development of new anticancer compounds, several of which are currently in clinical trials.
