A Stringent Systems Approach Uncovers Gene-Specific Mechanisms Regulating Inflammation [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Much has been learned about transcriptional cascades and networks from large-scale systems analyses of high-throughput data sets. However, analysis methods that optimize statistical power through simultaneous evaluation of thousands of ChIP-seq peaks or differentially expressed genes possess substantial limitations in their ability to uncover mechanistic principles of transcriptional control. By examining nascent transcript RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, and binding motif data sets from lipid A-stimulated macrophages with increased attention to the quantitative distribution of signals, we identified unexpected relationships between the in vivo binding properties of inducible transcription factors, motif strength, and transcription. Furthermore, rather than emphasizing common features of large clusters of co-regulated genes, our results highlight the extent to which unique mechanisms regulate individual genes with key biological functions. Our findings demonstrate the mechanistic value of stringent interrogation of well- defined sets of genes as a complement to broader systems analyses of transcriptional cascades and networks. Bone marrow-derived macrophages were stimulated with lipid A for 0, 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes. Chromatin was immunoprecipitated with antibodies against RelA, SRF, or IRF3.

Characterising the transcriptional profile of murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes with altered expression of IRF3.

Project description:The chronic inflammatory state that accompanies obesity is a major contributor to insulin resistance and other metabolic dysfunction features. Despite recent advances in our understanding of the cellular and secreted factors that promote the inflammatory milieu of obesity, we have much less insight into the transcriptional pathways that drive these processes. While most attention has focused on the canonical inflammatory transcription factor NF-KB, other potentially important factors exist, including members of the interferon regultory factor (IRF) family. Here we show that IRF3 expression is upregulated in the adipocytes of obese mice and humans. TLR3/TLR4 activation induces insulin resistance in adipocytes, which can be prevented by IRF3 knockdown. Furthermore, Irf3KO mice display improved insulin sensitivity, associated with reduced intra-adipose and systemic inflammation in the high-fat fed state, enhanced browning of subcutaneous fat, and increased adipose expression of Glut4. Taken together, our data indicates that IRF3 is a major transcriptional regulator of adipose inflammation to maintain systemic glucose and energy homeostasis. Transcriptional profiling of murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes with altered expression of IRF3. Overexpression or knockdown of IRF3 was achieved by lentivirus transduction for 6 days. 3T3-L1 adipocytes with IRF3 knockdown were further treated in the absence or presence of LPS for 6 days. Samples consist of triplicate replica with appropriate control.

The Mediator MED23 plays opposing roles in directing smooth muscle cell and adipocyte differentiation

Project description:The Mediator complex functions as a control center orchestrating diverse signalings, gene activities, and biological processes. However, how Mediator subunits determine distinct cell fates remains to be fully elucidated. Here, we show that Mediator MED23 controls the cell fate preference that directs differentiation into smooth muscle cells (SMCs) or adipocytes. Med23-deficiency facilitates SMC differentiation but represses adipocyte differentiation from the multipotent mesenchymal stem cells. Gene profiling revealed that the presence or absence of Med23 oppositely regulates two sets of genes: the RhoA/MAL-targeted cytoskeleton/SMC genes and the Ras/ELK1 targeted growth/adipocyte genes. Mechanistically, MED23 favors ELK1-SRF binding to SMC gene promoters for repression, whereas the lack of MED23 favors MAL-SRF binding to SMC gene promoters for activation. Remarkably, the effect of MED23 on SMC differentiation can be recapitulated in zebrafish embryogenesis. Collectively, our data demonstrate the dual, opposing roles for MED23 in regulating the cytoskeleton/SMC and growth/adipocyte gene programs, suggesting its “Ying-Yang” function in directing adipogenesis vs. SMC differentiation.

Transcriptional responses of murine macrophages to the adenylate cyclase toxin of Bordetella pertussis

Project description:Three different recombinant forms of CyaA were used to investigate transcriptional responses of murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) using Affymetrix Mouse Genome Genechips. These forms were enzymically active, invasive CyaA, nonenzymically active, invasive CyaA (CyaA*) and non-enzymically active, non-invasive CyaA (proCyaA*). BMMs, treated with 20 ng/ml of CyaA for 24 h, showed over 1000 significant changes in gene transcription compared with control cells. CyaA caused an increase in transcription of many inflammatory genes and genes associated with various signalling cascades such as those involved in cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A signalling. Most strikingly, CyaA caused down-regulation of numerous genes involved in cell proliferation. CyaA* at 20 ng/ml significantly up-regulated the transcription of only twelve genes after 24 h whereas proCyaA* at this concentration significantly increased the transcription of only two genes. The effect of administration of three different recombinant forms of pertussis toxin to mouse bone marrow derived macrophages are compared with a vehicle only contol 24 hours after treatment in technical triplicate measurements

Gene expression profiles of canonical and non-canonical NF-ÎºB signaling pathways in Hodgkinâs lymphoma

Project description:Malignant Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) cells are characterized by constitutive activation of the canonical as well as the non-canonical NF-ÎºB signaling cascades. We depleted subunit combinations corresponding to either canonical (p50/RelA) or non-canonical (p52/RelB) dimers in the HL cell line L-1236 and performed Affymetrix microarray analysis. Knockdown of p52/RelB affected the expression of a significantly higher number of genes than the knockdown of p50/RelA. The two sets of target genes presented a partial overlap, however they also revealed specific genes that are involved in distinct aspects of tumor biology. The knockdown of subunit combinations corresponding to either canonical (p50/RelA, experimental group 1) or non-canonical (p52/RelB, experimental group 2) NF-ÎºB heterodimers were carried out in L-1236 cells. Two distinct siRNA sequences for every NF-ÎºB subunit and two non-targeting siRNA sequences (control) were used for each experimental group. Experiments were performed in biological triplicates.

Transcriptional profiling of the Arabidopsis abscission mutant hae hsl2 by RNA-Seq

Project description:The receptor-like protein kinases encoded by HAESA (HAE) and HAESA-LIKE 2 (HSL2) are essential for floral organ abscission in Arabidopsis thaliana and the double hae hsl2 mutant fails to abscise. Expression of HAE and HSL2 is specific to Abscission Zone (AZ) cells and is higher in stage 15 flowers than in earlier developmental stages. By stage 16 floral organs have begun to abscise, suggesting that HAE HSL2 are most active in stage 15 flowers. Samples were enriched for AZ RNA by isolating RNA from flower receptacles, the region from the base of the flower to slightly above the base of attachment of the sepals, petals, and stamen. RNA-seq was then used to analyze and compare the transcriptomes of wild type and hae-3 hsl2-3 mutants. 2034 genes were differentially expressed with a False Discovery Rate adjusted p < 0.05, of which 349 genes 2 fold or greater change. Of these 349, 277 were lower in the mutant and 72 were higher. Differentially expressed genes with lower expression were enriched for hydrolytic enzymes, cell-wall modifying enzymes, and defense related genes. This suggests that HAE HSL2 signaling regulates gene expression of enzymes necessary for abscission. 6 samples were sequenced, 3 biological replicates of Col-0 wild type and 3 biological replicates of the hae-3 hsl2-3 double mutant. Samples were barcoded and all 6 samples multiplexed and sequenced on 3 lanes, each lane on a separate flow cell, of an Illumina HiSeq 2000.

Transcriptome analysis of virus-specific H2-Db-GP33-41+CD8+ T cells from WT or PSGL-1 KO mouse spleens at day 9 post LCMV Cl 13 infection

Project description:Chronic viruses and cancers thwart immune responses in humans by inducing T cell dysfunction. Using a murine chronic virus that models human infections, we investigated the function of the adhesion molecule, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) that is upregulated on responding T cells. PSGL-1-deficient mice unexpectedly cleared the virus due to dramatic increases in the intrinsic survival of multifunctional effector T cells that had downregulated PD-1 and other inhibitory receptors. Notably, this response resulted in CD4+ T cell-dependent immunopathology. Mechanistically, PSGL-1 ligation on exhausted CD8+ T cells inhibited TCR and IL-2 signaling, and upregulated PD-1, leading to diminished survival with TCR stimulation. In models of malignant melanoma where T cell dysfunction occurs, PSGL-1-deficiency led to PD-1 downregulation, improved T cell responses, and tumor control. Thus, PSGL-1 plays a fundamental role in balancing viral control and immunopathology, and also functions as a checkpoint that regulates T cell responses in the tumor microenvironment. WT or PSGL-1 KO mice were infected with 2 x 10^6 PFU LCMV Clone 13. Spleens from 10 WT or 10 PSGL-1 KO animals were pooled and processed. CD8+ T cells were negatively enriched from WT or PSGL-1 KO spleens (EasySep Stemcell). Purified T cells were stained with propidium iodide (PI) for 10 minutes on ice, cells were washed. CD8+ T cells were stained with H2-Db-GP33-41 tetramers (NIH) and FACS sorted (BD FACS Aria). Sorted tetramer+ cells were PI negative and purity was >98%. Experiment was repeated twice to generate 2 WT (WT 1; WT 2) and 2 PSGL-1 KO (KO 1; KO 2) samples that represented 10 pooled spleens per sample.

Transcriptome-wide modulation of splicing by the exon junction complex

Project description:We report that knockdown of EJC core proteins, eIF4A3, Y14, Magoh, causes a transcript-wide changes in alternative splicing, as well as some transcriptional changes. These changes are specific to EJC core proteins, and KD of UPF1 protein caused different sets of alterantive splicing changes. These changes are linked to the rate of transcription. Examination of 4 different knockdown, as well as GFP knockdown in HeLa cells, 2 replicates each condition.

Optimization of transcription factor binding map accuracy by utilizing their knockout-mouse models

Project description:Genome-wide assessment of protein-DNA interactions binding by ChIP-seq is a key technology to study transcription factor (TF) localization and regulation of gene-expression. In ChIP-seq, signal-to-noise-ratio as well as signal specificity depend on many variables including antibody quality, and efforts to improve ChIP-seq data thus far focused mostly on generating better reagents. Here we introduce KOIN (KO implemented normalization) as a novel strategy to increase signal specificity and reduce noise by using TF knockout-mice as a critical control for ChIP-seq. We tested our new peak calling strategy (KO implemented normalization = KOIN) on different ChIP-seq datasets to increase signal specificity and reduce noise.
