Project description:The fusion of bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic cells with hepatocytes to generate BM derived hepatocytes (BMDH) is a natural process, which is enhanced in damaged tissues. However, the reprogramming needed to generate BMDH and the identity of the resultant cells are essentially unknown. In a mouse model of chronic liver damage, here we identify a modification in the chromatin structure of the hematopoietic nucleus during BMDH formation, accompanied by the sequential loss of the key hematopoietic transcription factor PU.1/Sfpi1 (SFFV proviral integration 1) and gain of the key hepatic transcriptional regulator HNF-1A homeobox A (HNF-1A/Hnf1a). Through genome-wide expression analysis of laser captured BMDH, a differential gene expression pattern was detected and the chromatin changes observed were confirmed at the chromatin regulator gene level. Similarly, Tranforming Growth Factor-M-NM-21 (TGF-M-NM-21) and neurotransmitter (e.g. Prostaglandin E Receptor 4 [Ptger4]) pathway genes were over-expressed. In summary, in vivo BMDH generation is a sequential process in which the hematopoietic cell nucleus changes its identity and acquires hepatic features. These BMDHs have their own cell identity characterized by an expression pattern different from hematopoietic cells or hepatocytes. The role of these BMDHs in the liver requires further investigation. C57BL/6JxDBA/2 F1 female mice were subjected to lethal irradiation and intravenously injected with bone marrow cells harvested from C57BL/6J-M-NM-2actinEGFPxDBA/2 F1 male mice. The livers of female mice were injured with CCl4. Liver individual cells were laser captured from frozen sections. Bone marrow derived hepatocytes (BMDH), hematopoietic cells, and hepatocytes, were analyzed individually.

Project description:Considerable information has accumulated about components of bone marrow that regulate survival, self-renewal and differentiation of hematopoietic cells. We have now studied Wnt signaling in that context, assessing influences on human and murine hematopoiesis. Microarray, PCR and staining experiments revealed that OP9 acquired osteoblastic characteristics while down-regulating some features associated with mesenchymal stem cells. This included down-regulation of Angiopoietin 1, c-Kit ligand and VCAM-1 expression. In contrast, production of decorin, tenascins and fibromodulin markedly increased. At least one of these extracellular matrix components, decorin is a regulator of hematopoiesis. That is, addition of the protein to OP9 co-cultures causes changes similar to Wnt3a. Two control samples (LZR1 & LZR2) were analyzed from OP9 mouse stromal cells transfected with vector only, and two experimental samples (W3A1 & W3A2) were analyzed from OP9 cells transfected with vector containing the Wnt3A gene.

Project description:Background: A specific subset of regulatory IL-10 producing B cells has been extensively studied in autoimmune and inflammatory pathologies. These cells are able to constrain exacerbated inflammation by inhibiting T cell mediated responses and maturation of antigen presenting cells. In allergic diseases, observations that increase of regulatory B cells is necessary for allergen tolerance suggest that development of allergic asthma would be associated with a defect in the regulatory B cells compartment. Objective: We sought to (i) characterize regulatory IL-10+ regulatory B cell subset in Balb/c mice by microarray and flow cytometry and (ii) investigate their regulatory capacity in vivo in a house dust mite model of allergic asthma. Results: We identified an IL-10 producing B cells subset able to control T cell proliferation in vitro in both control and asthmatic mice. This subset is decreased in allergic mice. IL-10+ Breg cells express high levels of CD9 and upregulate CD70 and CD73 after activation. Expression of CD9 allows identifying more than 50% of Bregs. Interestingly CD9+ B cells inhibit TH2-TH17 allergic airway inflammation in vivo after adoptive transfer in an IL-10 dependent manner. Conclusions: Herein, we demonstrate that induction of allergic asthma dampens the generation of Bregs contributing to exacerbated airway inflammation. We identified a distinct CD9+ Breg-cell population decreased in lung of HDM mice and able to control asthma and allergic airway inflammation by producing IL-10 after adoptive transfer. This study points B cells as an interesting therapeutic target in allergic asthma.

Project description:Human monocytes are phagocytic leucocytes which circulate in the peripheral blood and play important roles in immunity and inflammation. They also represent circulating M-^QmetabolicM-^R sentinels in plasma, uptake lipids following food intake, and contribute to atherosclerotic plaque formation. We therefore investigated their homeostatic responses to food intake in vivo and to determine the response of human monocytes to food intake. We isolated monocyte subsets from the blood of healthy volunteers one hour before and four hours after a western type lunch.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of subventricular zone (SVZ) progenitors comparing control healthy mice to mice induced to develop an autoimmune demyelination (EAE model). Goal was to unveil genes involved in demyelination-induced reactivity of SVZ progenitors. Two-condition experiment, healthy vs. EAE derived SVZ progenitors. Biological replicates: 2 control replicates, 2 EAE replicates. SVZ progenitors were sorted in two cell populations: neuronal progenitors (PSA-NCAM magnetic sorting) and glial progenitors (NG2 magnetic sorting). Progenitors from healthy mice are reference samples.

Project description:In vivo antigen (Ag)-induced differentiation of B lymphocytes into plasma cells (PCs) takes place in extra-follicular foci and germinal centers of the secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs). Most of these SLO PCs are short-living and only relatively few PCs, characterized by secreting high-affinity antibodies (Ab), travel through the circulation and finally home in specialized survival niches of the bone marrow (BM) and, at a lesser extent, in the SLOs, where they become long-living Ab-secreting PCs. We have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to distinguish between human circulating Ag-induced PCs in comparison with tonsil and BM PCs distinctively regulate genes involved in cell proliferation. Gene expressions in human plasma cells isolated from tonsil (7 samples), blood (6 samples) and bone marrow (7samples) were measured. Each sample was isolated from a different donor.
