Purpose: NGS has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cell signaling pathways. The goal of this study is to determine the effects of PPARD in gastric corpus epithenial cell transcriptomes in relation to gastric progenitor cell transfromation and gastric tumorigenesis.; Methods: NGS-derived mRNA transcriptome profiles of gastric corpus epithelial cells from villin-PPARD and their age and sex matched WT mice at 10, 25 and 55 weeks were generated by deep sequencing (4-5 mice per group) using Illumina HiSeq4000 .The transcriptomes of villin-PPARD and WT mice were compared to determine the differentially expressed genes. Differentially expressed genes in the top canonical pathways will be examined and validated by qRT-PCR.; Results: The raw data was aligned to the MM10 genome with Tophat2/2.0.14, and the number of reads per gene was counted with HTSeq/0.6.1.The read counts were normalized with "DESeq2". We used cutoff: FDR< 0.01 and fold change larger than 2 to identify 407 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) for 10 weeks, 717 DEGs for 25 weeks and 2694 DEGs for 55 weeks. Among those DEGs, 255 are shared by the 3 ages, in which 219 were upregulated and 36 were downregulated in villin-PPARD mice compared with the WT mice. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis for the 255 DGEs among the 3 age groups showed that IFN-g signaling was the top canonical pathway that PPAR-d activated, with an overlap ratio of 36.1% of the known genes involved in this pathway. The next two top canonical pathways, with overlap ratios of 23.7% and 15.9%, were the antigen presentation pathway and the pathway for activation of IRF by cytosolic pattern recognition receptors, respectively, both of which are related to IFN-g signaling pathway activation and immune inflammation.; Conclusions: Our study represents the detailed analysis of PPARD transcriptomes in gastric corpus epithelial cells regulated by villin-promoter, generated by mRNA-seq technology. Our results show that NGS offers a comprehensive and accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluations of mRNA contents in cells. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions.
