GSE244362 Genome-Wide CRISPR Screen Identifies an NF2-adheren junction mechanistic dependency for cardiac lineage
Contributors : Chang Jie Mick Lee ; Roger S FooSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Homo sapiensCardiac differentiation involves a stepwise clearance of repressors and fate-restricting regulators through the modulation of BMP/Wnt-signaling pathways. However, the mechanisms and how regulatory roadblocks are removed with specific developmental signaling pathways remain unclear. Here, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR screen to uncover essential regulators of cardiomyocyte specification in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and identify NF2, a Moesin-Ezrin-Radixin Like (MERLIN) Tumor Su...

GSE248027 ASXL1/2 links MLL4 and BAP1 on enhancers
Contributors : Xie Guojia ; Lee Ji-Eun ; Ge KaiSeries Type : Genome binding/occupancy profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Mus musculusHistone H3K4 monomethyltransferases MLL3 and MLL4 contain a set of uncharacterized PHD fingers. By structural and biochemical assays, we found a novel function of the PHD2 and PHD3 (PHD2/3) fingers of MLL3 and MLL4, revealing their direct binding to the conserved MBH (MLL binding helix) region of ASXL1/2, components of the Polycomb repressive PR-DUB complex. In mouse embryonic stem cells, we observed that BAP1, the catalytic subunit of the PR-DUB complex, physically interact...

We previously used subcellular fraction-sequencing (Frac-Seq) to reveal an unexpected connection between alternative splicing and isoform-specific mRNA translation. Here we apply comparative transcriptomics to explore alternative splicing coupled translational control (AS-TC) across 13 million years of primate evolution. ...

Contributors : Shi Lan-Lan ; Rui-Ze Niu ; Jia LiuSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Mus musculusBrain aging is a major risk factor for many brain diseases, which seriously affects the quality of life and even life span, and poses an increasingly serious threat to human health. Research shows that anti-aging and an extra year of life expectancy could bring $38 trillion in economic gains. Therefore, it is urgent to study the mechanism of brain aging, find effective ways to improve aging and improve the quality of life of the aging population. In the early stage, we established the c...

GSE202320 Follistatin-like 1 guarantees the immunomodulatory properties of mesenchymal stem cells during liver fibrotic therapy
Contributors : Xiaohong Zheng ; Ying HanSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Homo sapiensMesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy has been shown to be a promising option for liver fibrosis treatment. However, critical factors affecting the efficacy of MSC therapy for liver fibrosis remain unknown. Follistatin-like 1 (FSTL1), a TGF- -induced matricellular protein, is documented as an intrinsic regulator of proliferation and differentiation in MSCs. In the present study, we characterized the potential role of FSTL1 in MSC-based anti-fibrotic therapy and further elucidated the mechanisms ...

Effects of maternal exercise on infant mesenchymal stem cell mitochondrial function, insulin action, and body composition in infancy
AbstractMaternal exercise (ME) has been established as a useful non-pharmacological intervention to improve infant metabolic health; however, mechanistic insight behind these adaptations remains mostly confined to animal models. Infant mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) give rise to infant tissues (e.g., skeletal muscle), and remain involved in mature tissue maintenance. Importantly, these cells maintain metabolic characteristics of an offspring donor and provide a model for the investigation of mechanisms behind infant metabolic health improvements. We used undifferentiated MSC to investigate if ME affects infant MSC mitochond...

Survival After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID): A Worldwide Review of the Prognostic Variables
This study aims to perform an extensive review of the literature that evaluates various factors that affect the survival rates of patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in developed and developing countries. An extensive search of the literature was made in four different databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science). The search was carried out in December 2022 and updated in July 2023, and the terms such as “hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,” “bone marrow transplant,” “mortality,” “opportunistic infections,” and “survival...

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 2080: Application of Cinnamomum burmannii Essential Oil in Promoting Wound Healing
This study analyzed 32 main components and their relative contents of essential oil using GC-MS. Then, network pharmacology was used to predict the possible targets of this essential oil in wound healing. We first proved this essential oil’s effects in vitro and in vivo. Cinnamomum burmannii essential oil could not only promote the proliferation and migration of skin stromal cells, but also promote M2-type polarization of macrophages while inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. This study explored the possible mechanism by which Cinnamomum burmannii essential oil promotes wound healing, prov...

Cancers, Vol. 16, Pages 1754: Antiretroviral Drug Repositioning for Glioblastoma
rine DeMarino John D. Heiss Avindra Nath Ashish H. Shah Outcomes for glioblastoma (GBM) remain poor despite standard-of-care treatments including surgical resection, radiation, and chemotherapy. Intratumoral heterogeneity contributes to treatment resistance and poor prognosis, thus demanding novel therapeutic approaches. Drug repositioning studies on antiretroviral therapy (ART) have shown promising potent antineoplastic effects in multiple cancers; however, its efficacy in GBM remains unclear. To better understand the pleiotropic anticancer effects of ART on GBM, we conducted a comprehensive drug repurposing ana...
