Description
The ability of transcriptional regulators to drive lineage conversion of somatic cells offers great potential for the treatment of human disease. While current research in this field is focused on the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells or direct lineage transdifferentiation, less attention has been paid to the possibility of reprogramming cells to produce cytokines, growth factors and hormones. To explore the concept of switching on specific target genes in heterologous cells, we developed a model system to screen candidate factors for their ability to activate the archetypal megakaryocyte-specific chemokine platelet factor 4 (PF4) in fibroblasts. We found that co-expression of the transcriptional regulators GATA1 and FLI1 resulted in a significant increase in levels of PF4, which became magnified over time. We also determined that inclusion of a third factor, TAL1, further enhanced upregulation of PF4 expression. Our study therefore identified of TAL1 as an important component in the combination of transcriptional regulators that contribute to megakaryocyte programming, and demonstrated that such combinations can be used to produce potentially beneficial chemokines in readily available heterologous cell types.

Description
Human diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG) are an aggressive form of pediatric brain tumors that arise in the pons in young children thus resulting in significant morbidity and very poor survival. Recent data suggest that mutations in the histone H3.3 variant are often found in these tumors, though the mechanism of their contribution to oncogenesis remains to be elucidated. Here we report that the combination of constitutive PDGFRA activation and p53 suppression as well as expression of the K27M mutant form of the histone H3.3 variant leads to neoplastic transformation of hPSC-derived neural precursors. Our study demonstrates that human ES cells represent an excellent platform for the modeling of human tumors in vitro and in vivo, which could potentially lead to the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying neoplastic transformation and the identification of novel therapeutic targets.

- Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
Several lipocalin genes from higher plants were shown to be responsive to both high and low temperature stresses and have been named as temperature-induced lipocalin (Til). In this study, a reverse genetic approach was taken to elucidate the role of Arabidopsis Til1 (At5g58070) in thermotolerance. We showed that Til1 proteins was constitutively expressed and increased significantly after heat shock treatment. A T-DNA knockout line of Til1, designated as til1-1, could not produce Til1 and showed severe defects in basal and acquired thermotolerance. Introducing a wild type copy of Til1 gene into til1-1 complemented the mutant phenotype. Over-expression of Til1 in the wild type plant did not enhance thermotolerance. Til1 is peripherally associated with plasma membrane, suggesting a regulatory or protective role of this protein in membrane function. Transcriptomic analysis showed that the heat shock response in til1-1 was not altered as compared to the wild type plants. The temperature threshold for heat shock protein induction was not affected by the level of Til1. Ion leakage analysis revealed no significant difference in membrane stability between the wild type and til1-1 seedlings. These results suggested that Til1 is not involved in regulating membrane fluidity or stability. Nevertheless, the level of malondialdehyde was significantly higher in til1-1 than in the wild type after severe heat treatment. The mutant plants were also more sensitive than the wild type to tert-butyl hydroperoxide, a reagent that induces lipid peroxidation. Taken together, our data indicate that Til1 is an essential component for thermotolerance probably by acting against lipid peroxidation induced by severe heat stress.
