Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) give rise to adipocytes in response to adipogenic hormones. An in-house cDNA microarray representing 3400 genes was employed to characterize the modulation of genes involved in this process. A total of 197 genes showed temporal gene expression changes during adipogenesis, including genes encoding transcriptional regulators and signaling molecules. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analyses confirmed differential expression at the transcriptional level of several genes identified by cDNA microarray screening. Cluster analysis of the genes regulated during the late phase (from day 7 to day 14) of hMSC adipogenesis indicated that these changes are well correlated with data previously reported for murine preadipocytes. However, during the early phase (day 1-day 5), the modulations of genes differed from those reported for the preadipocytes. These data provide novel information on the molecular mechanisms required for lineage commitment and maturation accompanying adipogenesis of hMSC.

CAN-2409 is a replication-defective adenovirus that delivers the herpes simplex virus (HSV)-thymidine kinase gene to infected cells. Intratumoral administration of CAN-2409 followed by prodrug results in the formation of a toxic metabolite able to induce immunogenic cell death, exposure of tumor-associated antigens, and activation of local and systemic immune responses. We used a dynamic labeling model with MC38 tumor cells implanted in photoconvertible Kaede mice.

Cells preserve and convey certain gene expression patterns to their progeny through the mechanism called epigenetic memory. Epigenetic memory, encoded by epigenetic markers and components, determines germline inheritance, genomic imprinting, and X chromosome inactivation. First discovered long non coding RNAs were implicated in genomic imprinting and X-inactivation and these two phenomena clearly demonstrate the role of lncRNAs in epigenetic memory regulation.

Circadian rhythms driven by biological clocks regulate physiological processes in all living organisms by anticipating daily geophysical changes, thus enhancing environmental adaptation. Time-resolved serial multi-omic analyses in vivo, ex vivo, and in synchronized cell cultures have revealed rhythmic changes in the transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome, involving up to 50 % of the mammalian genome. Mitochondrial oxidative metabolism is central to cellular bioenergetics, and many nuclear genes encoding mitochondrial proteins exhibit both circadian and ultradian oscillatory expression.

Both DNA replication and RNA transcription utilize genomic DNA as their template, necessitating spatial and temporal separation of these processes. Conflicts between the replication and transcription machinery, termed transcription-replication conflicts (TRCs), pose a considerable risk to genome stability, a critical factor in cancer development. While several factors regulating these collisions have been identified, pinpointing primary causes remains difficult due to limited tools for direct visualization and clear interpretation.

Wound healing is a dynamic process involving multiple cell types and signaling pathways. Dermal sheath cells (DSCs), residing surrounding hair follicles, play a critical role in tissue repair, yet their regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. This study used single-cell proteomics with the mouse model to explore DSC function across different healing stages.
