Transcriptomic analyses of Hand2 transgenic embryos

چکیده
In this article, we further provide the data generated for the previously published research article "Specification of jaw identity by the Hand2 transcription factor." To better understand the downstream genes of the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Hand2, we generated double-transgenic mice (Hand2 (NC) ) by intercrossing CAG-floxed CAT-Hand2 mice with Wnt1-Cre mice for conditional activation of Hand2 expression in the neural crest. Altered expression of Hand2 induces transformation of the upper jaw to the lower jaw in Hand2 (NC) mutant mice. This data article provides Tables detailing the differentially expressed genes between wild-type and Hand2 (NC) mutant embryos. The raw array data of our transcriptomes as generated using Affymetrix microarrays are available on the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) browser (Reference number GSE75805).

Loss of Apaf-1 leads to partial rescue of the HAND2-null phenotype.
HAND2 is an essential transcription factor for cardiac, pharyngeal arch, and limb development. Apoptosis in the HAND2-null embryo causes hypoplasia of the right ventricle and pharyngeal arches leading to lethality by embryonic day (E)10.0 from heart failure. In order to investigate the role of apoptosis in inducing the HAND2-null phenotype, we generated mouse embryos lacking both HAND2 and Apaf...
متن کاملDNA binding-dependent and -independent functions of the Hand2 transcription factor during mouse embryogenesis.
The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor Hand2 is required for growth and development of the heart, branchial arches and limb buds. To determine whether DNA binding is required for Hand2 to regulate the growth and development of these different embryonic tissues, we generated mutant mice in which the Hand2 locus was modified by a mutation (referred to as Hand2(EDE)) that abolished...
متن کاملGata3 participates in a complex transcriptional feedback network to regulate sympathoadrenal differentiation.
Gata3 mutant mice expire of noradrenergic deficiency by embryonic day (E) 11 and can be rescued pharmacologically or, as shown here, by restoring Gata3 function specifically in sympathoadrenal (SA) lineages using the human DBH promoter to direct Gata3 transgenic expression. In Gata3-null embryos, there was significant impairment of SA differentiation and increased apoptosis in adrenal chromaffi...
متن کاملA Phox2- and Hand2-dependent Hand1 cis-regulatory element reveals a unique gene dosage requirement for Hand2 during sympathetic neurogenesis.
Neural crest cell specification and differentiation to a sympathetic neuronal fate serves as an important model for neurogenesis and depends upon the function of both bHLH transcription factors, notably Hand2, and homeodomain transcription factors, including Phox2b. Here, we define a 1007 bp cis-regulatory element 5' of the Hand1 gene sufficient to drive reporter expression within the sympathet...
متن کاملA hand for the epicardium.
In mammals, formation of the properly septated 4-chambered heart and coronary vasculature is essential for unidirectional blood flow and survival of the organism. This process involves complex cell-cell interactions, the dysregulation of which can profoundly alter organogenesis, leading to a plethora of structural or functional cardiac defects. No wonder that congenital heart disease (CHD) repr...
