Project description:Once activated, B cells produce the antibodies needed to fight against infection. B cells are necessary for adaptive or specific immunity, which focuses on the destruction of foreign invaders that have gotten past the bodies initial defenses. Heat shock protein family is a group of highly conserved molecular chaperones with important functions in protein folding such as antibody and in signal transduction. Stch (Heat shock 70 kDa protein 13) is a member of the heat shock protein 70 family and is found associated with microsomes. Members of this protein family play a role in the processing of cytosolic and secretory proteins. To explore the role of Stch in B-cell activation and antibody production, we evaluated the transcriptional events and the role of stch pathway on the activation and antibody production of B cells by single cell RNAseq. Splenic lymphocytes were isolated from 7-9-week-old female Stchf/f wildtype (WT) mice and B-cell specific Stch knocked-out (CD19creStchf/f) mice (3 mice/group) using Ficoll (Ficoll-Paque Plus, GE Healthcre). B cells were sorted using B220 microbeads (Cat No. 130-049-501, Miltenyi Biotec, Germany). Their transcriptomes were captured using a 10x chromium system.

Project description:T cell antigen receptor δ (Tcrd) variable region exons are assembled by RAG-initiated V(D)J recombination. Here, we employ a high throughput method to map hundreds of thousands of RAG-initiated Tcrd D segment (Trdd1 and Trdd2) rearrangements in developing thymocytes. We find that Trdd2 joins directly to Trdv, Trdd1, and Trdj segments, but Trdd1 joining is ordered with joining to Trdd2 a prerequisite for further rearrangement. We also find frequent, previously unappreciated Trdd1 and Trdd2 rearrangements that inactivate Tcrd. Moreover, we find numerous RAG off-targets that are generated via unidirectional RAG tracking across the loop-domain containing Trdd1, Trdd2 and Trdj. Correspondingly, disruption of the upstream domain boundary causes spreading of on- and off-target RAG activity to the proximal Trdv domain. RAG-initiatd Tcrd D segment rearrangements in developing thymocytes were generated by deep sequencing using illumine Miseq

Project description:Chromatin looping mediated by the CCCTC binding factor CTCF regulates V(D)J recombination at antigen receptor loci. CTCF-mediated looping can influence recombination signal sequence accessibility by regulating enhancer activation of germline promoters. CTCF-mediated looping has also been shown to limit directional tracking of the RAG recombinase along chromatin, and to regulate through-space interactions between recombination signal sequences, independent of the RAG recombinase. However, in all prior instances in which CTCF-mediated looping was shown to influence V(D)J recombination, it was not possible to fully resolve the relative contributions to the V(D)J recombination phenotype of changes in accessibility, RAG-tracking, and RAG-independent long-distance interactions. Here, to assess mechanisms by which CTCF-mediated looping can impact V(D)J recombination, we introduced an ectopic CTCF binding element (CBE) immediately downstream of Eδ in the murine Tcra-Tcrd locus. The ectopic CBE impaired inversional rearrangement of Trdv5 in the absence of measurable effects on Trdv5 transcription and chromatin accessibility. Moreover, although the ectopic CBE limited directional RAG tracking from the Tcrd recombination center, such tracking cannot account for Trdv5-to-Trdd2 inversional rearrangement. Rather, the defect in Trdv5 rearrangement could only be attributed to a reconfigured chromatin loop organization that limited RAG-independent through-space interactions between the Trdv5 and Trdd2 RSSs. We conclude that CTCF can regulate V(D)J recombination by segregating RSSs into distinct loop domains and inhibiting RSS synapsis, independent of any effects on transcription, RSS accessibility and RAG tracking. RAG-initiatd Tcrd D segment rearrangements in developing thymocytes were generated by deep sequencing using illumine Miseq

Project description:'Non-coding transcripts originating upstream of the immunoglobulin constant region (I-transcripts) are required to direct activation-induced deaminase to initiate class switching in B cells. Differential regulation of I and I1 transcription in response to interleukin-4 (IL-4), hence class switching to IgE and IgG1, is not fully understood. Here we combine novel mouse reporters and single-cell RNA-seq to reveal the heterogeneity in IL-4 induced I-transcription. Transgenic mice were generated with one allele labelled with an eGFP fluorescent reporter gene in the first exon of the gamma-1 non-coding RNA and one allele with a tdTom fluorescent reporter gene in the first exon of the epsilon non-coding RNA. Ex vivo splenic B cells from these mice were stimulated with IL-4, lipopolysaccharide and B cell activating factor. After 24 hours culture, cell were sorted according to their fluorescence and used for single-cell mRNA-sequencing. Two independent experiments were performed (labelled as ''batch 1'' and ''batch 2'').'

Project description:Both multiple myeloma (MM) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are characterized with abnormal production of plasma cells. In both diseases, the process of B cells differentiate into plasmablast/plasma cell is disordered. Despite the continuous research on the development of prognostic factors and introduction of new agents, dysregulation of plasmablast/plasma cells in MM and SLE is still uncontrolled. Thus, it is necessary to explore the novel therapeutic target to plasmablast/plasma cells. Because of plasmablast-like, Mus musculus myeloma SP 2/0 cell line was selected to explore the novel therapeutic target to plasmablast/plasma cells. To explore the novel therapeutic target to plasmablast/plasma cells, we determined mRNA profiles in SP 2/0 cells compared to naive B cells by RNA-seq. RNA-seq was done with an Illumina HiSeq 2500 instrument at GENEWIZ, Suzhou, China.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM), also known as plasma cell myeloma, is a cancer of plasma cells, a type of white blood cell normally responsible for producing antibodies. There is no cure for MM. In addition, the mechanism underlying abnormal production of plasma cells is not clear. In this experiment, peripheral blood was obtained from normal healthy donors and multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were separated by Ficoll separation solution. Samples of four donors were pooled and Samples of four MM patients were pooled. The aim was to characterize the mRNA profile of MM patients compared to healthy donors and find the new target of diagnosis or treatment for MM.

Project description:Somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations contribute to the pathogenesis of age-related disorders, including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The accumulation of mitochondria harboring mtDNA mutations in patients with these disorders suggests a failure of normal mitochondrial quality-control systems. The mtDNA-mutator mice acquire somatic mtDNA mutations via a targeted defect in the proofreading function of the mtDNA polymerase, PolgA, and develop macrocyticanemia similar to that of patients with MDS. We observed an unexpected defect in clearance of dysfunctional mitochondria at specific stages during erythroid maturation in hematopoietic cells from aged mtDNA-mutator mice. Mechanistically, aberrant activation of mechanistic target of rapamycin signaling and phosphorylation of uncoordinated 51-like kinase (ULK) 1 in mtDNA-mutator mice resulted in proteasome mediated degradation of ULK1 and inhibition of autophagy in erythroid cells. To directly evaluate the consequence of inhibiting autophagy on mitochondrial function in erythroid cells harboring mtDNA mutations in vivo, we deleted Atg7 from erythroid progenitors of wildtype and mtDNA-mutator mice. Genetic disruption of autophagy did not cause anemia in wild-type mice but accelerated the decline in mitochondrial respiration and development of macrocytic anemia in mtDNA-mutator mice. These findings highlight a pathological feedback loop that explains how dysfunctional mitochondria can escape autophagy-mediated degradation and propagate in cells predisposed to somatic mtDNA mutations, leading to disease. We used microarrays to identify expression profiles and pathways that are differentially activated or suppressed in Ter119+ bone marrow cells isolated from phlebotomized wildtype or Polg mutant mice
