Journal ArticleDOI
p53 inhibits CRISPR–Cas9 engineering in human pluripotent stem cells
Robert J. Ihry,Kathleen A. Worringer,Max R. Salick,Elizabeth Frias,Daniel J. Ho,Kraig M. Theriault,Sravya Kommineni,Julie Chen,Marie Sondey,Chaoyang Ye,Ranjit Randhawa,Tripti Kulkarni,Zinger Yang,Gregory McAllister,Carsten Russ,John S. Reece-Hoyes,William C. Forrester,Gregory R. Hoffman,Ricardo E. Dolmetsch,Ajamete Kaykas +19 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that Cas9 toxicity creates an obstacle to the high-throughput use of CRISPR/Cas9 for genome engineering and screening in hPSCs, and as h PSCs can acquire P53 mutations14, cell replacement therapies using CRISpr/cas9-enginereed hPSCS should proceed with caution, and such engineered hPSPs should be monitored for P53 function.
Journal ArticleDOI
YAP, but Not RSPO-LGR4/5, Signaling in Biliary Epithelial Cells Promotes a Ductular Reaction in Response to Liver Injury.

Lugus,Feng Cong,Gregory McAllister,Gregory R. Hoffman,Guglielmo Roma,Jan S. Tchorz +38 more
TL;DR: It is found that BECs lack and do not require LGR4/5-mediated WNT/β-catenin signaling during a DR, whereas YAP and mTORC1 signaling are required for this process.
Journal ArticleDOI
TMEM41B is a novel regulator of autophagy and lipid mobilization.
Francesca Moretti,Phil Bergman,Stacie Dodgson,David Marcellin,Isabelle Claerr,Jonathan M. Goodwin,Rowena DeJesus,Zhao Kang,Christophe Antczak,Damien Begue,Debora Bonenfant,Alexandra Graff,Christel Genoud,John S. Reece-Hoyes,Carsten Russ,Zinger Yang,Gregory R. Hoffman,Matthias Mueller,Leon Murphy,Ramnik J. Xavier,Beat Nyfeler +20 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that TMEM41B is a novel ER‐localized regulator of autophagosome biogenesis and lipid mobilization and Immunostaining and interaction proteomics data suggest that TM EM41B localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
Journal ArticleDOI
Diverse repertoire of human adipocyte subtypes develops from transcriptionally distinct mesenchymal progenitor cells.
So Yun Min,Anand Desai,Zinger Yang,Agastya Sharma,Tiffany DeSouza,Ryan M.J. Genga,Alper Kucukural,Lawrence M. Lifshitz,Søren Nielsen,Camilla Scheele,René Maehr,Manuel Garber,Silvia Corvera +12 more
TL;DR: The finding of a broad adipocyte repertoire derived from a distinct set of mesenchymal progenitors, and of the transcriptional regulators that can control their development, provides a framework for understanding human adipose tissue function and role in metabolic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene expression analysis in pregnant women and their infants identifies unique fetal biomarkers that circulate in maternal blood
Jill L. Maron,Kirby L. Johnson,Donna K. Slonim,Chao-Qiang Lai,Marco F. Ramoni,Gil Alterovitz,Zina Jarrah,Zinger Yang,Diana W. Bianchi +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that fetal and placental mRNA circulates in the blood of pregnant women and placedental genes are more easily detected in plasma.
