View SamplesBET-regulated transcriptome and BRD4, BRD2, BRD3 and Pol II ChIP-seq datasets in human ESCs before and after BET inhibition. Transcription factors and chromatin remodeling complexes are key determinants of embryonic stem cell (ESC) identity. In this study, we investigate the role of BRD4, a member of the bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) family of epigenetic reader proteins, in control of ESC identity. We performed RNA-seq analyiss in the presense of small molecule inhibitors of BET proteins to show that BRD4 positively regulates the ESC transcriptome. We also integrated RNA-seq analysis with ChIP-sequencing datasets s for BRD4 (and for other BRD2 and BRD3) to demonstrate that BRD4 binds SEs and regulates the expression of SE-associated pluripotency genes. We have also conducted ChIP-seq analysis for Pol II binding to demonstrate that SE-associated genes depend on BRD4-dependent Pol II binding at TSS and gene body for their productive transcriptional elongation. Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from samples using the RNeasy Qiagen kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Deep sequencing of RNA (1ug) from hESCs FGF- or MS436-treated at day 1 and day 5 was performed as described in (Higgin et al., 2010c). Samples were subjected to PolyA selection using magnetic oligo-dT beads. The resulting RNA samples were then used as input for library construction as described by the manufacturer (Illumina, CA, USA). RNA libraries were then sequenced on the GAIIx system using 50bp single reads. Chromatin for ChIP-sequencing was obtained from FGF-maintained hESCs, vehicle or MS417-treated (at 250nM concentration for 6h) (10 to 20x106 cells/IP). ChIP-Seq libraries were generated using standard Illumina kit and protocol as described in (Ntziachristos et al., 2012). We performed cluster amplification and single read 50 sequencing-method using the Illumina HiSeq 2000, following manufacturer’s protocols.

View SamplesThe estrogen-dependence of breast cancer has long been recognized, however, the role of 17-estradiol (E2) in cancer initiation was not known until we demonstrated that it induces complete neoplastic transformation of the human breast epithelial cells MCF-10F. E2-treatment of MCF-10F cells progressively induced high colony efficiency and loss of ductulogenesis in early transformed (trMCF) cells and invasiveness in Matrigel invasion chambers. The cells that

View SamplesBRAFV600E mutation is the most frequent molecular event in papillary thyroid carcinoma. The relation of this genetic alteration with the factors od poor prognosis has been reported as well as its influence on PTC gene signature.

View SamplesIt is widely accepted that a womans lifetime risk of developing breast cancer at menopause is reduced by early full term pregnancy and multiparity. This phenomenon is associated with the development and differentiation of the breast, which ultimately imprints a specific genomic profile in the mammary epithelium. In the present work we demonstrate that this profile represents a permanent signature that could be associated with the breast cancer risk reduction conferred by pregnancy.

View SamplesPurpose: We investigated the tetrachloroethylene associated changes in kidney transcriptomes among healthy mice, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease mice, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis mice. Overall design: Male C57BL/6J mice were fed a low-fat diet (4% fat), high-fat diet (31% fat), or methionine/choline/folate deficient diet. Following an 8-week diet, mice were administered either a single dose of tetrachloroethylene (PERC, 300 mg/kg/d in 5% Alkamuls-EL620 in saline, 5 mL/kg) and euthanized at 24 hours post dose, or five consecutive daily doses of PERC or vehicle (n=8/diet/treatment) and euthanized at 4hours post dose. The harvested kidneys were subjected to mRNA sequencing using Illumina Hiseq 2500. Jac-NASH-063 was excluded from analysis because it did not have a good yield.
