Description
Pseudoautosomal regions (PAR1 and PAR2) in eutherians retain homologous regions between the X and Y chromosomes that play a critical role in the obligatory X-Y crossover during male meiosis. Genes that reside in the PAR1 are exceptional in that they are rich in repetitive sequences and undergo a very high rate of recombination. Remarkably, murine PAR1 homologs have translocated to various autosomes, reflecting the complex recombination history during the evolution of the mammalian X chromosome. We now report that the SNF2-type chromatin remodeling protein ATRX controls the expression of eutherians ancestral PAR1 genes that have translocated to autosomes in the mouse. In addition, we have identified two potentially novel mouse PAR1 orthologs. We propose that the ancestral PAR1 genes share a common epigenetic environment that allows ATRX to control their expression.

Description
New insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells are formed primarily by self-replication during adult life. To identify small molecules that can induce beta cell replication, a large chemical library was screened for proliferation of growth-arrested, reversibly immortalized mouse beta-cells using an automated high-throughput screening platform. A number of structurally diverse, active compounds were identified including phorbol esters, which likely act through protein kinase C, and a group of thiophene-pyrimidines that stimulate beta-cell proliferation by activating the Wnt signaling pathway. A group of dihydropyridine (DHP) derivatives was also shown to reversibly induce beta-cell replication in vitro by activating L-type calcium channels (LTCCs). Our data indicate that the LTCC agonist 2a affects the expression of genes involved in cell cycle progression and cellular proliferation. Furthermore, treatment of beta-cells with both LTCC agonist 2a and the Glp-1 receptor agonist Ex-4 showed an additive effect on beta-cell replication. The identification of small molecules that induce beta-cell proliferation suggests that it may be possible to reversibly expand other quiescent cells to overcome deficits associated with degenerative and/or autoimmune diseases.

Accumulating evidences suggest that sex affects lung development. During the fetal period, male lung maturation is delayed compared with female and surfactant production appears earlier in female than in male fetal lungs.

Foxl2 is a forkhead transcription factor expressed only in the female, but not in the male gonad. We have created mice homozygous mutant for the Foxl2 gene (KO) as well as mice carrying a conditional mutant Foxl2 allele (floxed).

Description
To examine the role of CREB overexpression in hematopoiesis, we created a model of leukemia in zebrafish by overexpressing the human CREB in the myeloid hematopoietic lineage. Whole transcriptome analysis of kidney-marrow revealed 171 genes differently expressed between CREB- and control-zebrafish (five per group). Interestingly, the integration of this signature with human deposited data revealed that this tumor resembled a human AML at transcriptome level.

Description
The newly identified claudin-low subtype of cancer is believed to represent the most primitive breast malignancies, having arisen from transformation of an early epithelial precursor with inherent stemness properties and metaplastic features. Challenging this hypothesis, we show both in vitro and in vivo that transcription factors inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition can drive the development of claudin-low tumors from differentiated mammary epithelial cells, by playing a dual role in cell transformation and dedifferentiation.
