Description
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the accumulation of lipid-loaded macrophages in the arterial wall. Intimal macrophages internalize modified lipoproteins such as oxidized LDL (oxLDL) through scavenger receptors, leading to storage of excess cholesteryl esters in lipid bodies and a "foam cell" phenotype. In addition, stimulation of macrophage Toll-like receptors (TLRs) has been shown to promote lipid body proliferation. We investigated the possibility that there are transcriptional regulators that are common to both pathways for stimulating foam cell formation (modified lipoproteins and TLR stimulation), and identified the transcription factor ATF3 as a candidate regulator.

Description
During cortical development neurons are generated sequentially from basal progenitors (BPs) which specifically express the transcription factor Tbr2. We used fluorescent-activaed cell sorting (FACS) to isolate BPs from Tbr2GFP knockin reporter mice (Arnold SJ et al. Genesis, 2009) at early (embryonic day, E13) and late (embryonic day, E16) stages of cortical neurogenesis and determined mRNA expression profiles using mouse mRNA microarray (Illumina MouseWG-6 v2). Comparison of E13 and E16 mRNA expression profiles allowed us to identify regulatory gene networks for maintaining stage specific homeostasis of BPs throughout neurogenesis.

Description
We performed RNAseq analysis to determine the effect of MFN1 deletion on oocyte global gene expression profile. RNAseq revealed a total of 982 genes were significantly differentially expressed (p<0.05) in Mfn1-/- oocytes compared to WT (654 up-regulated and 337 down-regulated). Pathway analysis indicated significant over-representation of elements involved in regulation of ceramide biosynthesis, death receptor signaling and adherens junction signaling. Differential expression of these genes (Bad, G2e3, Cdh17 and Myh2) was also confirmed by qRT-PCR.Our findings provide new insight into the role of MFN1 in the oocytes, and may help understand the potential mechanism of infertility and reproductive aging associated with MFN1-deficiency. Overall design: Secondary follicle-enclosed oocytes were collected from 8-week-old Mfn1-/- and WT mice (n=3 for each group) and 5 oocytes from each group were pooled for RNA sequencing analysis.

Description
The tumor suppressor p53 can induce various biological responses. Yet it is not clear whether it is p53 in vivo promoter selectivity that triggers different transcription programs leading to different outcomes. Our analysis of genome-wide chromatin occupancy by p53 using ChIP-seq (deposited in Sequence Read Archive database as SRP007261) revealed p53 default program, i.e. the pattern of major p53-bound sites that is similar upon p53 activation by nutlin3a, RITA or 5-FU in breast cancer cells, despite different biological outcomes triggered by these compounds. Parallel analysis of gene expression allowed identification of 280 previously unknown p53 target genes, including p53-repressed AURKA. The consensus p53 binding motif was present more frequently in p53-induced, than in repressed targets, indicating different mechanisms of gene activation versus repression. We identified several possible cofactors of p53, and found that STAT3 antagonised p53-mediated repression of a subset of genes, including AURKA. Finally, we showed that the expression of the novel p53 targets correlates with p53 status and survival in breast cancer patients.

Description
Since its discovery as a tumour suppressor some fifteen years ago, the transcription factor p53 has attracted paramount attention for its role as the guardian of the genome. TP53 mutations occur so frequently in cancer, regardless of patient age or tumour type, that they appear to be part of the life history of at least 50% of human tumours. In most tumours that retain wild-type p53, its function is inactivated due to deregulated HDM2, a protein which binds to p53 and which can inhibit the transcriptional activity of p53 and induce its degradation.
Publication Title
Ablation of key oncogenic pathways by RITA-reactivated p53 is required for efficient apoptosis.
