These interactions and growth factor circuits tions in mesenchymal stem cells from 21 myeloma patients ultimately lead to the activation of pleiotrophic signalling (MM-MSCs) and 12 normal donors (ND-MSCs) after in vitro cascades, which promote proliferation, cell survival, anti- culture expansion. Whereas ND-MSCs were devoid of genomic apoptotic signalling, drug resistance and migration of MM imbalances, several non-recurrent chromosomal gains and cells.4,5,7 Furthermore, crosstalk of myeloma cells with other losses (41 Mb size) were detected in MM-MSCs.

  • TRANSCRIPTIONAL REGULATION of Hur in RENAL STRESS
    TRANSCRIPTIONAL REGULATION OF HuR IN RENAL STRESS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sudha Suman Govindaraju Graduate Program in Biochemistry The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Beth S. Lee, Ph.D., Advisor Dr. Kathleen Boris-Lawrie, Ph.D. Dr. Sissy M. Jhiang, Ph.D. Dr. Arthur R. Strauch, Ph.D Abstract HuR is a ubiquitously expressed RNA-binding protein that affects the post- transcriptional life of thousands of cellular mRNAs by regulating transcript stability and translation. HuR can post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression and modulate cellular responses to stress, differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, senescence, inflammation, and the immune response. It is an important mediator of survival during cellular stress, but when inappropriately expressed, can promote oncogenic transformation. Not surprisingly, the expression of HuR itself is tightly regulated at multiple transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Previous studies demonstrated the existence of two alternate HuR transcripts that differ in their 5’ untranslated regions and have markedly different translatabilities. These forms were also found to be reciprocally expressed following cellular stress in kidney proximal tubule cell lines, and the shorter, more readily translatable variant was shown to be regulated by Smad 1/5/8 pathway and bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) signaling. In this study, the factors that promote transcription of the longer alternate form were identified. NF-κB was shown to be important for expression of the long HuR mRNA, as was a newly identified region with potential for binding the Sp/KLF families of transcription factors.

  • In Silico Prediction of High-Resolution Hi-C Interaction Matrices
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13423-8 OPEN In silico prediction of high-resolution Hi-C interaction matrices Shilu Zhang1, Deborah Chasman 1, Sara Knaack1 & Sushmita Roy1,2* The three-dimensional (3D) organization of the genome plays an important role in gene regulation bringing distal sequence elements in 3D proximity to genes hundreds of kilobases away. Hi-C is a powerful genome-wide technique to study 3D genome organization. Owing to 1234567890():,; experimental costs, high resolution Hi-C datasets are limited to a few cell lines. Computa- tional prediction of Hi-C counts can offer a scalable and inexpensive approach to examine 3D genome organization across multiple cellular contexts. Here we present HiC-Reg, an approach to predict contact counts from one-dimensional regulatory signals. HiC-Reg pre- dictions identify topologically associating domains and significant interactions that are enri- ched for CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) bidirectional motifs and interactions identified from complementary sources. CTCF and chromatin marks, especially repressive and elongation marks, are most important for HiC-Reg’s predictive performance. Taken together, HiC-Reg provides a powerful framework to generate high-resolution profiles of contact counts that can be used to study individual locus level interactions and higher-order organizational units of the genome. 1 Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, 330 North Orchard Street, Madison, WI 53715, USA. 2 Department of Biostatistics and Medical Informatics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI 53715, USA. *email: [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2019) 10:5449 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13423-8 | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13423-8 he three-dimensional (3D) organization of the genome has Results Temerged as an important component of the gene regulation HiC-Reg for predicting contact count using Random Forests.

Here, we report zonation- dependent transcriptomic changes in aged mouse brain endothelial cells (ECs), which pro- minently implicate altered immune/cytokine signaling in ECs of all vascular segments, and functional changes impacting the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and glucose/energy metabolism especially in capillary ECs (capECs). An overrepresentation of Alzheimer disease (AD) GWAS genes is evident among the human orthologs of the differentially expressed genes of aged capECs, while comparative analysis revealed a subset of concordantly downregulated, functionally important genes in human AD brains. Treatment with exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, strongly reverses aged mouse brain EC transcriptomic changes and BBB leakage, with associated attenuation of microglial priming. We thus revealed tran- scriptomic alterations underlying brain EC ageing that are complex yet pharmacologically reversible.

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes.
