Whole genome transcription profile of antigen receptor activated B cells expressing wildtype or Calmodulin (CaM) - resistant E12

ABSTRACT: To elucidate the genome-wide role of Ca2+/ calmodulin inhibition of E2A in regulation of BCR activation, we performed DNA microarray analysis of activated splenic B cells expressing wildtype or CaM-resistant E12 mutant m8N47 with and without anti-IgM treatment for 3 hour.The expression of a remarkably large set of genes differed significantly. Primary splenic B-lymphocytes were purified from mice heterozygous for the deletion of E2A gene and infected with retroviruses expressing either wildtype or mutant E12 after activation with CD40L plus IL-4 for 14 h. After 12 h incubation, the infection was repeated for 12 h, followed by incubation for a further 22 h post-infection in fresh complete medium with the stimulants to allow expression of GFP and E12. In addition to CD40L plus IL-4, the medium was supplemented with LPS (200 ng/ml) during retroviral infection incubations to improve infection efficiency. To study gene expression following B-cell receptor activation, anti-mouse IgM (2.5 M-NM-

Signaling from the BCR is used to judge Ag-binding strengths of the Abs of B cells. BCR signaling enables the selection for successive improvements in the Ag affinity over an extremely broad range of affinities during somatic hypermutation. We show that the mouse BCR is subject to general negative feedback regulation of the receptor proteins, as well as many coreceptors and proteins in signal pathways from the receptor. Thus, the BCR can downregulate itself, which can enable sensitive detection ...[more]

Project description:Expression of CD40 in non-hematopoietic cells has been linked to inflammation. We presented evidence that CD40, a T-cell costimulatory molecule, is expressed in human Î²-cells and the engagement of CD40 in insulinoma cells activated the NFKB and ERK1/2 pathways. CD40 activation in human islets cells induced secretion of IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1 Î², which is abrogated by inhibitors of NFkB and ERK1/2 inhibitors. In this study, we have studied gene expression mediated by CD40-CD40L interaction in islet cells. This approach identified 90 genes and transcripts exhibiting at least a 1.7 fold increase in their expression intensity after treatment with soluble CD40L. A significant number of genes were related to inflammation and oxidative stress. We have a strong overexpression of CXCL1 (GroÎ±), CXCL2 (Mif2) and CXCL3; chemokines belonging to CXC family structurally related to Il-8. 11 genes were selected from this group and further quantified by Real Time PCR, including CXCL1. Activation of islet cells with CD40L induced the secretion of CXCL1 in a NFKB dependent manner. Engagement of CD40 in islet cells did not induce apoptosis, neither Î²-cell death and did not enhanced TNF-Î± mediated cell death as observed in insulinoma cells. CD40 activation in insulinoma cells, results in ERK1/2 dependent phsophorylation of synapsin I, a protein associated with the exocytosis machinery in neurons and Î²-cells. However, treatment of islets with soluble CD40L did not affect glucose induced insulin secretion. It has been reported that ductal cells always present in human islet preparations express CD40 constitutively (ref). We found that CD40-CD40L interaction in ductal cells, unlike in Î²-cells, induces secretion of diabetogenic cytokines IFNÎ³ and TNF-Î±. Furthermore, incubation of islets containing ductal cells with CD40L decreased Î²-cells viability as assessed by measurement of their mitochondrial membrane potential Experiment Overall Design: We isolated islet cells from three patients. Part of islet cells from each patient has been treated with CD40L. We compared gene expression in treated cells vs untreated for each patient using dye-swap.
