Project description:BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor g (PPAR g) is a nuclear receptor whose activation has been shown to modulate macrophage and epithelial cell-mediated inflammation. The objective of this study was to use a systems approach for investigating the mechanism by which the deletion of PPAR g in T cells modulates the severity of dextran-sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis, immune cell distribution and global gene expression. METHODS: Wild-type (WT) or PPAR g flfl; CD4 Cre+ (CD4cre) mice in a C57BL/6 background were challenged with 2.5% DSS in their drinking water for 0, 2, or 7 days. Mice were scored on disease severity both clinically and histopathologically. Flow cytometry was used to assess lymphocyte and macrophage populations in the blood, spleen, and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN). Global gene expression in colonic mucosa was profiled using Affymetrix microarrays. RESULTS: Both disease severity and inflammation-related body weight loss were accelerated by the deficiency of PPAR g in T cells. Examination of colon histopathology revealed significantly greater epithelial erosion, leukocyte infiltration, and mucosal thickening in the CD4cre mice on day 7. CD4cre mice had more CD8+ T cells than wt mice and fewer CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells (Treg) and IL10+CD4+ T cells in blood and MLN, respectively. Transcriptomic profiling revealed around 3000 genes being transcriptionally altered as a result of DSS challenge in CD4cre mice. These included up-regulated adhesion molecules on day 7 and proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1b, and suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS-3) mRNA expression. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that T cell PPAR g down-regulates inflammation during DSS colitis by inhibiting colonic expression of inflammatory mediators and increasing MLN Treg. Colonic mucosa from wt and CD4cre mice were sampled at 0 (no DSS), 2, and 7 days of DSS-induced experimental colitis

Project description:To investigate the function of Embigin on LTA1 induced-CD4+TRM cells, we immunized CD4cre x Embfl/fl mice with OmpX and LTA1 at Day0 and Day21, and isolated CD4+ cells from Embfl/fl CD4cre-(WT) and Embfl/fl CD4cre+(KO) mice from the lung by magnetic beads. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of CD4+cells from 5 WT and 5 KO mice.

Project description:Primary cilia (PC) are important signaling hubs in cells and we explored their role in colorectal cancer (CRC) and colitis. In the colon we found PC to be mostly present on different subtypes of fibroblasts and exposure of mice to either chemically induced colitis-associated colon carcinogenesis (CAC) or dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced acute colitis decreased PC numbers. We employed conditional knock-out strains for the PC essential genes, Kif3A and Ift88, to generate mice with reduced numbers of PC on colonic fibroblasts. These mice showed an increased susceptibility in the CAC model as well as in DSS-induced colitis. Secretome and immunohistochemical analyses of DSS-treated mice displayed an elevated production of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 in PC-deficient colons. An inflammatory environment diminished PC presence in primary fibroblast cultures. This was triggered by IL-6 as identified by RNAseq analysis together with blocking experiments, suggesting an activation loop between IL-6 production and PC loss. Notably, an analysis of PC presence on biopsies of patients with ulcerative colitis as well as CRC patients revealed decreased numbers of PC on colonic fibroblasts in pathological versus surrounding normal tissue. Taken together, we provide evidence that a decrease in colonic PC numbers promotes colitis and CRC.

Project description:We have demonstrated that the colon and rectum are transcriptionally distinct in mice and that the colon can be differentiated from rectum based on microarray profiles. This transition occurs over the first weeks of life, indicating environmental exposure is an important mediator. Colon and rectum RNA from E18 to 8 week old C57BL/6J mice along with 8 week old gnotobiotic C57BL/6J mice were evaluated with microarray technology. For each array analysis a pool of RNA(2-8) from individual colons or rectums were co-hybridized with a reference pool of 4 RNA samples from mouse small intestine, rectum and colon (SIRC)) to Agilent Mouse Whole Genome 4x44k microarrays and scanned on an Agilent microarray scanner. Files were extracted using Agilent Feature Extraction version 9.5.

Project description:Activation of b-catenin has been causatively linked to the etiology of colon cancer. Conditional stabilization of this molecule in pro-T-cells promotes thymocyte development without the requirement for preTCR signaling. We show here that activated b-catenin stalls the developmental transition from the double-positive (DP) to the single-positive (SP) thymocyte stage and predisposes DP thymocytes to transformation. b-Catenin induced thymic lymphomas have a leukemic arrest at the early DP stage. Lymphomagenesis requires Rag activity, which peaks at this developmental stage, as well as additional secondary genetic events. A consistent secondary event is the transcriptional upregulation of c-Myc, whose activity is required for transformation since its conditional ablation abrogates lymphomagenesis. In contrast, the expression of Notch receptors as well as targets is reduced in DP thymocytes with stabilized b-catenin and remains low in the lymphomas indicating that Notch activation is not required or selected for in b-catenin induced lymphomas. Thus, b-catenin activation may provide a mechanism for the induction of T-ALL that does not depend on Notch activation. Experiment Overall Design: This study was used to compare gene expression patterns of LckCre mice, CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3 mice before and after T-cell transformation. 5 independent Lckcre (control), 5 independent CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3 mice and 8 independent mice with lymphomas were used. Thymocytes or tumor masses were collected from Lckcre, CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3 mice. Total RNA isolation and purification followed by synthesis of dscDNA, Biotinylated cRNA and purification of Biotinylated cRNA. Then the hybridization to Affymetrix âMouse Expression Array 430 Genechipsâ was done. Data was analysed by dchip.

Project description:The methylation status of colon epithelial cells was profiled in wild type mice and mice expressing a Dnmt3b transgene. Genome-scale methylation profiles were generated using reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS), with CpG methylation scored by promoter and also summarized by gene. Dnmt3b expression is associated with a strong increase in de novo methylation of a discrete subset of "methylation sensitive" genes which show a strong concordance with genes methylated in human colon cancer. These results, together with further analysis, indicate that colon epithelial cell methylation in the Dnmt3b mouse model predicts DNA methylation of human colon cancer with high confidence. Three each of Dnmt3b-induced and control mice, each split into two fractions.
