Lipocalin 24p3 (24p3) is a neutrophil secondary granule protein. 24p3 is also a siderocalin, which binds several bacterial siderophores. It was therefore proposed that synthesis and secretion of 24p3 by stimulated macrophages or release of 24p3 upon neutrophil degranulation sequesters iron-laden siderophores to attenuate bacterial growth. Accordingly, 24p3-deficient mice are susceptible to bacterial pathogens for which siderophores would normally be chelated by 24p3. Specific granule deficiency ...[more]

Project description:Lipocalin 24p3 (24p3) is a neutrophil secondary granule protein. 24p3 is also a siderocalin, which binds several bacterial siderophores. It was therefore proposed that synthesis and secretion of 24p3 by stimulated macrophages or release of 24p3 upon neutrophil degranulation sequesters iron-laden siderophores to attenuate bacterial growth. Accordingly, 24p3-deficient mice are susceptible to bacterial pathogens whose siderophores would normally be chelated by 24p3. Specific granule deficiency (SGD) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by complete absence of proteins in secondary granules. Neutrophils from SGD patients, who are prone to bacterial infections, lack normal functions but the potential role of 24p3 in neutrophil dysfunction in SGD is not known. Here we show that neutrophils from 24p3-deficient mice are defective in many neutrophil functions. Specifically, neutrophils in 24p3-deficient mice do not extravasate to sites of infection and are defective for chemotaxis. A transcriptome analysis revealed that genes that control cytoskeletal reorganization are selectively suppressed in 24p3-deficient neutrophils. Additionally, small regulatory RNAs (miRNAs) that control upstream regulators of cytoskeletal proteins are also increased in 24p3-deficient neutrophils. Further, 24p3-deficient neutrophils failed to phagocytose bacteria, which may account for the enhanced sensitivity of 24p3-deficient mice to both intracellular (Listeria monocytogenes) and extracellular (Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus) pathogens. Interestingly, Listeria does not secrete siderophores and additionally, the siderophore secreted by Candida is not sequestered by 24p3. Therefore, the heightened sensitivity of 24p3-deficient mice to these pathogens is not due to sequestration of siderophores limiting iron availability, but is a consequence of impaired neutrophil function. Key words: Lipocalin, 24p3, neutrophils, cell motility, chemotaxis, MIRNA-362-3p To address the role of lipocalin 2 in regulating miRNA expression profiling in neutrophils derived from mouse bone marrow, we performed microarray analysis of miRNAs in wild type (N=2) and lcn2 knockout (N=2) neutrophils.

Upon stimulation, neutrophils were treated by fMLP at 10 micromolar for 20 minutes at 37 centigrade.

Project description:Post-transcriptional gene regulation by miRNAs and RNA binding proteins (RBP) is important in development, physiology and disease. To examine the interplay between miRNAs and the RBP ELAVL1 (a.k.a. HuR), we mapped miRNA binding sites on a transcriptome-wide scale in WT and Elavl1 knockout murine bone marrow-derived macrophages. Proximity of ELAVL1 binding sites attenuated miRNA binding to transcripts and promoted gene expression. Transcripts that regulate angiogenesis and macrophage/ endothelial cross talk were preferentially targeted by miRNAs, suggesting that ELAVL1 promotes angiogenesis, at least in part, by antagonism of miRNA function. We found that ELAVL1 antagonized binding of miR-27 to the 3’UTR of Zfp36 mRNA and alleviated miR-27-mediated suppression of the RBP ZFP36 (a.k.a. Tristetraprolin). Thus the miR-27-regulated mechanism synchronizes the expression of ELAVL1 and ZFP36. This study provides a resource for systems-level interrogation of post-transcriptional gene regulation in macrophages, a key cell type in inflammation, angiogenesis and tissue homeostasis. Bone marrow derived macrpohges mRNA profiles of 7-day cultured wild type (WT) and Elavl1l-/- mouse bone marrow cells were generated by deep sequencing, with 4 biologic duplication, using Illumina GAII.

Project description:Intestinal epithelia are protected by a layer of mucin secreted by goblet cells against mechanical and chemical injuries, potent causes of inflammation, and the most abundant secreted intestinal mucin is encoded by the Muc2 gene. Genetic deletion of Muc2 causes intestinal inflammation in early stage and tumors after 3 months. The underlying mechanisms are not clear, but epigenetic alterations, particularly, up- and down-regulated microRNAs are involved in the malignant transformation from colitis to cancer. We used miRNA array to profile the differential expression of the miRNAs in Muc2-/- mouse colonic epithelial lin comparison with those in wild-type mice. Total RNA were extracted from mouse colonic epithelial cells and Muc2-/- and +/+, and the RNA were hybridized on Affymetrix miRNA microarray to determine the alterations of miRNAs during colitis development and its malignant transformation from colitis to cancer. To the end, we found miRNA were differential expressed in the Muc2-/- mice, among them 20 miRNAs were significantly downregulated and 71 miRNAs were significantly upregulated in Muc2-/- mice, in comparison with Muc2+/+ mice (change fold >2 or <0.5; T<0.01, p value< 0.05, q value< 0.05).

Project description:To understand whether hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) take part in emergency granulopoiesis, WT C57BL6 mice were treated intraperitoneally with 35 ug of lipopolysacharide (LPS) to induce emergency granulopoiesis, or PBS control. Mice were sacrificed 4 hours after the treatment and HSCs (Lin-c-Kit+Sca-1+CD48-CD150+) were sorted and subjected to bulk ATACseq.

Project description:miRNA expression from breast tumor tissue obtained from two groups of breast cancer (BC) patients: one group formed by women younger than 36 years and the other group by women older than 65 years. We selected breast tumor tissue samples from 21 women under 36 years old and 12 women above 65 years old, without BRCA mutation and without metastases. We selected a pool of samples in which all the subtypes were representated, in young patients as well as in older patients, to avoid expression biass. We add three samples from breast tissue of cancer-free women to minimize the age-related expression biass. Our aim was to compare miRNA expression between young women and older women, considering normal tissue as a reference.

Project description:The human BTG1 and BTG2 genes are targeted by genetic alterations in hematological malignancies. In this study we examined the unique and overlapping functions of Btg1 and Btg2 in mouse B cell development. Mice deficient for Btg1 and Btg2 displayed the strongest phenotype with a decrease in B cell numbers in bone marrow due to impaired B cell commitment and immature B cell differentiation. To determine the underlying mechanism, microarray expression analyis was performed on early (B220+ CD43+) and late (B220+ CD43-) B cells of WT and Btg1;Btg2 dKO mice. Total RNA obtained from sorted B220+ CD43+ ( Hardy fractions ABC) and B220+ CD43- (Hardy fractions DEF) BM cells of WT and Btg1-/-;Btg2-/- mice. In total 4 samples were analyzed and no replicates were included.

Project description:Objective: Microarray analysis was used to determine the molecular mechanism underlying Fancd2 and Foxo3a double knockout mice HSCs exhaustion. Methods: SLAM cells were obtained from WT, Fancd2KO, Foxo3aKO and DKO bone marrow cells. Total RNA from SLAM cells was purified by RNeasy kit (Qiagen) following the manufacturer’s procedure. And then the RNA was fluorescently labeled and hybridized to Affmetrix Mogene 2.0 ST array. Data was analyzed by Genespring GX11 software. Results: a large proportion of differentially expressed genes in dKO HSCs belonged to cell cycle control. Another group of up-regulated genes were those involved in the differentiation of HSCs. Other differentially regulated transcripts included genes known to be involved in oxidative stress response, or to have roles in DNA repair. Conclusion: Cell cycle, DNA repair, DNA binding and hematopoietic lineage differentiation pathways might have been perturbed in HSC exhaustion. Mouse Femurs and tibias from WT, Fancd2KO, Foxo3aKO and DKO mice were flushed to dissociate the BM fraction. The mononuclear cells were isolated by Ficoll (GE Healthcare) gradient centrifugation. Single SLAM (Lin-ckit+Sca-1+CD34-) cells were sorted. RNA was extracted, labelled, and quantified using the Mouse ST-2 microarray.
