• KLF16 and SIN3A facilitate endometrial cancer cell proliferation in association with CTD-2377D24.6
  GSE349296Homo sapiens6 个样本2026-10-31

  Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecological malignancy in developed countries. Pathogenetically, most cases arise from uncontrolled proliferative expansion of endometrial cells under prolonged estrogen stimulation, ultimately leading to malignant transformation within the glandular epithelium. Identifying key regulators of aberrant endometrial proliferation is therefore critical for developing novel therapeutic modalities against EC. In the present study, we characterized Kruppel-like factor 16 (KLF16), a transcription factor that drives proliferative signaling across multiple cellular components of the endometrium, including endothelial, epithelial, and smooth muscle cell types. Clinicopathological analysis revealed significantly elevated KLF16 expression in human EC tissues, which was positively associated with both advanced tumor stages and high histological grades. Genetic perturbation experiments demonstrated that knockdown of KLF16 robustly inhibited endometrial cancer cell proliferation in vitro and impeded tumor growth in vivo. Given its role as a master regulator controlling broad transcriptomic programs encompassing both protein-coding genes and non-coding RNAs, we performed unbiased screening and identified lncRNA CTD-2377D24.6 as a potential downstream mediator associated with KLF16 signaling. Notably, overexpression of CTD-2377D24.6 effectively counteracted the anti-proliferative effects induced by KLF16 depletion. Mechanistically, single-cell transcriptomics, coimmunoprecipitation, and functional assays demonstrated that SIN3A interacts with KLF16 and may contribute to the association between KLF16 and CTD-2377D24.6 expression, which is linked to enhanced endometrial cancer cell proliferation. Together, these findings established KLF16 contributes to endometrial cancer progression and highlight the KLF16/SIN3A/CTD-2377D24.6-associated regulatory axis as a potential molecular pathway relevant to EC proliferation.

• Targeting EGR1 Attenuates CCL2 Expression in Inflammatory Keratinocytes and Allergic Skin Inflammation
  GSE349203Homo sapiens5 个样本2026-10-31

  Early growth response 1 (EGR1) is a zinc-finger transcription factor involved in inflammatory gene regulation, but the extent to which pharmacological inhibition of EGR1 DNA-binding activity influences inflammatory transcriptional responses in keratinocytes remains incompletely understood. Here, we explored the transcriptional effects of pharmacological EGR1 inhibition in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα)-stimulated HaCaT keratinocytes. RNA sequencing was employed as an exploratory, hypothesis-generating screen using three structurally related EGR1 inhibitors (IT21, IT23, and IT25) to identify candidate genes showing concordant expression patterns across the three pharmacological perturbations. This analysis suggested broader changes in inflammation-associated transcriptional programs and identified several leukocyte-recruiting chemokines among the candidate genes. CCL2 was selected as a representative candidate for independent biological and mechanistic validation. IT25 treatment and EGR1 knockdown attenuated TNFα-induced CCL2 expression, while promoter-reporter analysis, EGR1-binding site mutagenesis, EGR1 overexpression, and chromatin immunoprecipitation supported EGR1-dependent transcriptional regulation of CCL2 in keratinocytes. Furthermore, topical IT25 treatment attenuated house dust mite-induced atopic dermatitis-like skin inflammation and was associated with reduced epidermal CCL2 expression and inflammatory cell infiltration in vivo. Collectively, these findings establish EGR1-dependent regulation of CCL2 in inflammatory keratinocytes and support further investigation of EGR1 DNA-binding activity as a pharmacological target in cutaneous inflammation.

• Exposure to perfluorooctanoic acid perturbs serotonin signaling in maternal pancreatic islets and induces gestational diabetes in mice
  GSE330582Mus musculus8 个样本2026-10-31

  [working abstract for manuscript, in style of how is required for EHP] Background: Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has been linked to gestational diabetes and other adverse pregnancy outcomes in humans. Despite the association, the mechanisms by which PFOA contributes to GDM have not been studied. The present study investigated whether PFOA exposure resulted in lower pancreatic islet serotonin abundance and β-cell proliferation, glucose intolerance, impaired insulin secretion, insulin resistance, and robust transcriptional changes underlying pancreatic islet adaptation, which provided evidence for a mechanism of PFOA-induced GDM. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess whether PFOA exposure impairs pancreatic islet serotonin-driven β-cell proliferation and causes GDM in a C57BL/6J mouse model. Methods: Analysis of pancreatic islet serotonin abundance and β-cell proliferation were measured by immunofluorescence. Metabolic assays, including glucose tolerance test, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, and insulin tolerance test were used to characterize GDM phenotypes. Bulk RNA sequencing was used to analyze differentially expressed genes and gene set enrichment in pancreatic islets isolated from control and PFOA-exposed mice. Results: PFOA exposure lowered islet serotonin abundance and β-cell proliferation in gestational day (GD) 12.5 pregnant dams. PFOA exposure was associated with glucose intolerance, impaired insulin secretion, and insulin resistance in GD16.5 pregnant dams. β-cell proliferation at GD12.5 and glucose tolerance at GD16.5 was improved in PFOA-exposed dams treated with a serotonin receptor 2B agonist (BW-732C86). RNAseq uncovered four differentially expressed genes and a broad reduction in coordinated transcriptional pathway activity in maternal pancreatic islets of PFOA-exposed GD12.5 dams. Discussion: PFOA-induced glucose intolerance was associated with perturbed pancreatic islet serotonin abundance.

• HOXA9 Couples Transcriptional Control with Higher-Order Chromatin Architecture in Acute Myeloid Leukemia [HiC]
  GSE306376Homo sapiens6 个样本2026-10-30

  The three-dimensional (3D) genome is organized by architectural proteins such as CTCF and cohesin, while transcription factors (TFs) typically regulate enhancer–promoter (E–P) and enhancer-enhancer (E-E) communications without major structural effects. How these layers intersect remains unclear. Here, we reveal that the homeobox TF HOXA9—overexpressed in ~50% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML)—exerts a non-canonical architectural role. HOXA9 depletion in AML cells disrupts topologically associating domain (TAD) boundaries, dissolves chromatin loops, and perturbs cell-specific gene programs. We identify a distinct class of long-range “hybrid” loops (>250 kb) co-anchored by HOXA9 and convergent CTCF, frequently linked to TAD boundaries. Integrative analysis defines a 3D genome informed HOXA9 network and identifies NHLRC2 as a direct downstream target essential for leukemogenesis. Our findings establish HOXA9 as a dual-function TF that couples transcriptional control with higher-order genome architecture, offering a new mechanism for its pervasive activation across molecularly diverse AML subtypes.

• Prenatal maternal cold stress exposure drives sex-specific neurodevelopmental disruptions in the fetal hypothalamus
  GSE328919Mus musculus3 个样本2026-10-29

  The prevalence of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) is increasing, with growing evidence implicating the intrauterine environment as a critical regulator of fetal brain development. Gestational perturbations such as maternal stress can increase NDD risk; however, the mechanism(s) by which prenatal maternal stress reshape fetal neurodevelopment remain unclear. Accordingly, the objective of my project was to characterize how maternal cold stress exposure during pregnancy disrupts neural stem and progenitor cell (NSPC) developmental programs in the fetus and the impact this has on neurodevelopment in the hypothalamus. Pregnant mice were exposed to 4°C for 30 minutes daily from embryonic day 11.5 (E11.5) to E15.5—a critical period of neurodevelopment in the hypothalamus. To assess how maternal cold stress impacts neural stem cell (NSC) behaviours, we employed the neurosphere assay, quantifying the number and size of primary and secondary neurospheres as a measure of NSC proliferation and self-renewal, respectively. Our findings revealed no change in NSC proliferation or self-renewal when comparing control and maternal cold stress male and female neurospheres. However, differentiation of dissociated NSCs revealed that neurons from both sexes had longer axons following maternal cold stress exposure. Interestingly, only male-derived cultures exhibited a significant increase in the number TUJ1+ neurons in response to maternal cold stress exposure, whereas only female-derived maternal cold stress cultures showed enhanced dendritic arborization. To explore the molecular basis of these changes, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on E15.5 fetal hypothalamic NSPCs. Analysis of differentially expressed genes uncovered basal sex differences between the transcriptional signatures of control male and female Cycling NSPCs and suggested that maternal cold stress shifts female Cycling NSPCs toward a more male-like transcriptional profile. Gene ontology analysis revealed that maternal cold stress upregulates pathways linked to neuronal growth, development, and GABAergic neuron differentiation, but only in females. Importantly, ligand-receptor analysis suggested that maternal cold stress exposure disrupts neurodevelopmental programs through altered cell-cell signalling within Cycling NSPCs predominantly in females. These findings demonstrate that prenatal maternal cold stress exposure drives sex-specific effects on fetal neurodevelopment and uncover distinct cellular pathways that may contribute to sex differences seen in the presentation and risk of many NDDs.

• RNA sequence, structure, and cell type specific features drive pseudouridylation by PUS7
  GSE314741synthetic construct8 个样本2026-10-28

  Pseudouridines are abundant mRNA modifications that can impact splicing, translation, and stability to tune gene expression. PUS7 is one of the major mRNA pseudouridine synthases whose dysregulation leads to neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer, underscoring the critical function of PUS7-dependent pseudouridines. Beyond a short and degenerate consensus sequence, the molecular mechanisms underlying PUS7-mediated pseudouridylation remain unknown. A lack of targeted, high-throughput pseudouridine detection methods limits simultaneous interrogation of PUS7 regulatory features across many experimental conditions. We developed novel Nanopore sequencing tools, including Nano-Mod-Amp, to reveal pseudouridine stoichiometry, its RNA structural context, and dependence on PUS7 levels at specific sites across biological conditions. We established that RNA sequence and structural features are important for efficient mRNA modification by PUS7. Perturbing structure through mutations or antisense oligos modulates pseudouridylation levels. Pseudouridines are largely responsive to PUS7 protein levels, demonstrating the regulatory potential of varying PUS7 levels across cellular conditions. Conversely, PUS7 activity is also regulated in a cell-type specific manner, independent of PUS7 expression levels in a manner consistent with regulation by RNA structure and RNA binding proteins. Together, we uncovered regulatory features guiding PUS7 activity using new Nanopore sequencing tools, enabling site specific modulation of PUS7-dependent pseudouridines. Our framework can be applied to other RNA-modifying enzymes to query the regulation of the epitranscriptome.

• Micro-C-TALE: BAC-based targeted high-resolution measurement of 3D chromatin interactions [Micro-C-TALE]
  GSE351910Homo sapiens2 个样本2026-10-27

  Chromosome conformation capture methods have greatly advanced our understanding of genome organization, but obtaining high-resolution interaction maps of selected genomic regions remains costly due to the sequencing requirements. Here, we introduce Micro-C-TALE, a new chromosome conformation capture method that combines Micro-C, which uses micrococcal nuclease to the resolution and sensitivity of chromatin interaction measurements, and C-TALE, which uses probes generated from bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) for targeted enrichment. This combination enables the generation of high-resolution interaction maps without requiring custom synthesis of capture oligonucleotides. We applied Micro-C-TALE to a 214 kb region in human HAP1 cells, obtaining detailed interaction maps with approximately ~5-6 million sequenced read pairs. Compared with published genome-wide Micro-C data, Micro-C-TALE yielded a higher amount of informative interactions within the targeted region despite ~550-fold lower sequencing depth. To evaluate the sensitivity of the method to fine-scale changes in genome organization, we introduced a CTCF binding site into the targeted region using CRISPR-Cas9. Comparing Micro-C-TALE to the restriction enzyme-based C-TALE, we found Micro-C yielded a ~5-fold higher fraction of informative reads and detected novel CTCF-mediated point interactions associated with the inserted CTCF site, which were barely discernible using C-TALE. Our results demonstrate that Micro-C-TALE provides a flexible and cost-effective approach for targeted high-resolution measurement of chromatin interactions, facilitating the investigation of fine-scale genome organization and its response to genetic perturbations.

• Microglial lipid signaling drives glioblastoma invasion and represents a therapeutic vulnerability
  GSE348401Mus musculus8 个样本2026-10-27

  Glioblastoma (GBM) is characterized by diffuse infiltration into the surrounding brain, limiting complete surgical resection, the strongest determinant of patient survival. The mechanisms driving this invasive growth remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify a lipid-mediated paracrine signaling axis through which tumor-associated microglia/macrophages promote glioma invasion. Integrating single-cell transcriptomics, spatial lipidomics, and functional perturbation across mouse models and human GBM samples, we show that invading tumor cells engage and reprogram myeloid cells via CSF1R–PI3K signaling. This induces lipid metabolic reprogramming and secretion of bioactive lipids, including lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs) and lysophosphatidic acids (LPAs), which promote GBM invasion through distinct downstream pathways. Disruption of this myeloid–GBM axis, reduces lipid secretion and suppresses invasion. Targeting downstream LPA–LPAR or YAP/TAZ signaling further constrains invasion in a context-dependent manner. Together, these findings define a lipid-driven circuit linking the tumor microenvironment to glioma invasion and identify strategies to reduce infiltration and improve surgical resection.

  C17orf58 is a poorly characterized gene implicated in the survival and proliferation of T-cell malignancies. To characterize transcriptional changes associated with C17orf58 depletion, RNA sequencing was performed in Jurkat T cells following lentiviral transduction with shRNAs targeting C17orf58. Two independent C17orf58-targeting shRNA constructs were evaluated, with scrambled shRNA and luciferase-targeting shRNA serving as negative controls. RNA was collected 72 hours after lentiviral transduction and subjected to RNA sequencing to identify gene-expression changes and molecular pathways associated with C17orf58 depletion.
