Ion channels are involved in a large variety of cellular processes including stem cell differentiation. Numerous families of ion channels are present in the organism which can be distinguished by means of, for example, ion selectivity, gating mechanism, composition, or cell biological function. To characterize the distinct expression of this group of ion channels we have compared the mRNA expression levels of ion channel genes between human keratinocyte-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and their somatic cell source, keratinocytes from plucked human hair. This comparison revealed that 26% of the analyzed probes showed an upregulation of ion channels in hiPSCs while just 6% were downregulated.

  • Pharmacological Target-Focused Transcriptomic Analysis of Native Vs Cultured Human and Mouse Dorsal Root Ganglia Andi Wangzhoua, Lisa A
    Research Paper Pharmacological target-focused transcriptomic analysis of native vs cultured human and mouse dorsal root ganglia Andi Wangzhoua, Lisa A. McIlvriedb, Candler Paigea, Paulino Barragan-Iglesiasa, Stephanie Shiersa, Ayesha Ahmada, Carolyn A. Guzmana, Gregory Dussora, Pradipta R. Raya,*, Robert W. Gereau IVb, Theodore J. Pricea Abstract Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons detect sensory inputs and are crucial for pain processing. They are often studied in vitro as dissociated cell cultures with the assumption that this reasonably represents in vivo conditions. However, to the best of our knowledge, no study has directly compared genome-wide transcriptomes of DRG tissue in vivo versus in vitro or between laboratories and culturing protocols. Comparing RNA sequencing-based transcriptomes of native to cultured (4 days in vitro) human or mouse DRG, we found that the overall expression levels of many ion channels and G-protein–coupled receptors specifically expressed in neurons are markedly lower although still expressed in culture. This suggests that most pharmacological targets expressed in vivo are present under the condition of dissociated cell culture, but with changes in expression levels. The reduced relative expression for neuronal genes in human DRG cultures is likely accounted for by increased expression of genes in fibroblast-like and other proliferating cells, consistent with their mitotic status in these cultures. We found that the expression of a subset of genes typically expressed in neurons increased in human and mouse DRG cultures relative to the intact ganglion, including genes associated with nerve injury or inflammation in preclinical models such as BDNF, MMP9, GAL,andATF3. We also found a striking upregulation of a number of inflammation- associated genes in DRG cultures, although many were different between mouse and human.

However, no studies have investigated the modulation of gene expression profiles (GEP) induced by DHA in transformed and benign tissues. Such information is mandatory to clarify the fine molecular mechanism(s) underlying the clinical efficacy of DHA, to identify appropriate therapeutic combinations, and to address safety issues related to their demethylating potential in normal tissues. Thus, utilising a syngeneic mouse model, we investigated the remodelling of GEP of neoplastic and normal tissues induced by systemic administration of DHA. METHODS: The murine mammary carcinoma cells TS/A were injected s.c. into female BALB/c mice that were treated i.p. with four 0 À 1 cycles of the DHA 5-aza-2 -deoxycytidine (5-AZA-CdR) at a fractioned daily dose of 0.75 mg kg (q8 h  3 days, every week).
