Project description:CD47 is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is ubiquitously expressed in different organs and tissues (Barclay and Van den Berg 2014; Liu, et al. 2017). In the human immune system, CD47 interacts with some integrins, two counter-receptor signal regulator protein (SIRP) family members, and the secreted thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) (Barclay and Van den Berg 2014; Gao, et al. 2016; Kaur, et al. 2013; Oldenborg, et al. 2000). CD47 has two established roles in the immune system. The CD47-SIRPα interaction was identified as a critical innate immune checkpoint, which delivers an antiphagocytic signal to macrophages and inhibits neutrophil cytotoxicity (Martínez- Sanz, et al. 2021). Its interaction with inhibitory SIRPα is a physiological anti-phagocytic “don’t eat me” signal on circulating red blood cells that is co-opted by cancer cells (Matlung, et al. 2017). Many malignant cells overexpress CD47 (Betancur, et al. 2017; Chao, et al. 2011; Jaiswal, et al. 2009; Majeti, et al. 2009; Oronsky, et al. 2020; Petrova, et al. 2017). CD47/SIRPα-targeted therapeutics have been developed to overcome this immune checkpoint for cancer treatment (Kaur, et al. 2020; Matlung, et al. 2017). Secondly, engagement of CD47 on T cells by TSP1 regulates their differentiation and survival (Grimbert, et al. 2006; Lamy, et al. 2007) and inhibits T cell receptor signaling and antigen presentation by dendritic cells (DCs) (Kaur, et al. 2014; Li, et al. 2002; Liu, et al. 2015; Miller, et al. 2013; Soto-Pantoja, et al. 2014; Weng, et al. 2014). TSP1/CD47 signaling has similar inhibitory functions to limit NK cell activation (Kim, et al. 2008; Nath, et al. 2018; Nath, et al. 2019; Schwartz, et al. 2019) and IL1β production by macrophages (Stein, et al. 2016). CD47 is therefore a checkpoint that regulates both innate and adaptive immunity. The recent understanding of CD47 antagonism associated with increased antigen presentation by DCs (Liu, et al. 2016) and natural killer cell cytotoxicity (Nath, et al. 2019) contributes to the heightened interest in CD47 as a therapeutic target (Kaur, et al. 2020).

Project description:We and others have previously observed that adipocytes and preadipocytes taken from different adipose tissue depots are characterized by differential expression of developmental and patterning genes (Dankel et al., 2010; Ferrer-Lorente et al., 2014; Gesta et al., 2006; Lee et al., 2017a; Lee et al., 2013; Macotela et al., 2012; Tchkonia et al., 2007; Yamamoto et al., 2010). To investigate how adipocyte heterogeneity and differences in the expression of developmental genes might impact the biology of adipocytes and preadipocytes, we created preadipocyte cell lines from the stromovascular fraction (SVF) isolated from the scapular white, inguinal, perigonadal, perirenal, and mesenteric fat pads of 6-week old male Immortomouse™ (Jat et al., 1991).During routine culture of the subcutaneous and visceral/perigonadal clonal cell lines, we observed extreme variation in media acidification rates that was unrelated to the fat pad of origin, the differentiation capacity of the cells, or the rate of their proliferation, suggesting metabolic heterogeneity. To further investigate this possibility, 24 clonal cell lines (12 each from subcutaneous and perigonadal fat) were selected based on variable media acidification rates, and their mRNA expression pattern determined by microarray analysis. The expression data was clustered using three different algorythms, and the consensus was used to categorize each type of adipose tissue.

Project description:In recent years, several small molecule cytotoxic drugs have been identified as potential inhibitors of ribosome biogenesis (Drygin et al., 2011; Peltonen et al., 2014a; Peltonen et al., 2014b). CX-5461 is one such drug that has also demonstrated anticancer potential for a wide range of malignancies (Bywater et al., 2012; Cornelison et al., 2017; Devlin et al., 2015; Drygin et al., 2011; Hald et al., 2019; Hein et al., 2017; Ismael et al., 2019; Lawrence et al., 2018; Lee et al., 2017; Negi and Brown, 2015; Taylor et al., 2019; Xu et al., 2017; Yan et al., 2017) (Haddach et al., 2012), and is presently under phase I trials for the treatment of both hematological cancers and solid tumours (Group, 2016; Khot et al., 2019). CX-5461 was initially characterized as an inhibitor of RNA Polymerase I (RPI/PolR1/PolI) that is responsible for the synthesis of the major ribosomal RNAs and the initial step in ribosome biogenesis (Drygin et al., 2011). Since RPI and its corresponding core transcription factors are dedicated to this task alone, they present ideal molecular targets by which to modulate ribosome biogenesis. However, the specificity of CX-5461 has been questioned and it has been suggested that this drug may also act by stabilizing DNA G-quadruplexes or by “poisoning” topoisomerase II (Topo II). Thus, the primary target of this drug and its mode of action are still in doubt. Here we used Deconvolution-ChIP-Seq in NIH3T3 and HEK293T cells treated for different times with CX-5461. The data show that the primary target of CX5461 is the initiation of ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) transcription. CX-5461 blocks transcription initiation in vitro and in vivo by arresting RNA polymerase I (RPI/Pol1) within the preinitiation complex. In contrast to previous suggestions, CX-5461 does not effect recruitment of the TBP-TAF complex SL1 to the rDNA promoter, the recruitment of the initiation competent RPI-Rrn3 complex or ongoing transcription elongation, arguing against a role for G-quadruplex stabilization or topoisomerase II poisoning. Inhibition of transcription by CX-5461 is not reversible, the RPI-Rrn3 complex remains arrested in the preinitiation complex even after drug removal. This leads to nucleolar stress, extensive DNA damage and cell senescence. Our data show that the cytotoxicity of CX-5461 is the downstream result of the highly specific inhibition of rDNA transcription. The observation that this inhibition is irreversible will be important for the future design of chemotherapeutic strategies and the avoidance of drug resistance.

Project description:Several studies indicate that plant MIR genes are transcribed by RNA Pol II, similar to what is found in animals (Cai et al., 2004; Lee et al., 2004). By sequencing the 5' transcript ends Xie et al. (2005) mapped the transcription start sites (TSSs) for 52 MIR genes. This list was expanded upon through computational prediction of the core promoters (Zhou et al., 2007). In addition to the TATA box sequence motifs located upstream of the TSSs (Xie et al. 2005), Megraw et al. (2006) identified other transcription factor binding motifs in the promoter of Arabidopsis MIR genes. They showed that within the 800 nucleotides region upstream of TSSs, sequences resembling the binding sites for the transcription factors AtMYC2, ARF, SORLREP3, and LFY were overrepresented relative to protein-coding gene promoters and randomly sampled genomic sequences (Megraw et al. 2006). While these previous studies are instrumental in establishing our working understanding of MIR gene transcription in plants, there are several major knowledge gaps that urgently need to be addressed. Binding of RNA Pol II to the identified MIR promoter regions has not been tested. Because expression of MIR genes does not involve translation, transcriptional control by RNA Pol II might be different from protein-coding genes. In addition, few of the predicted cis elements have been functionally tested. Futher, the number of annotated miRNA genes has since increased from 199 to 232 (miRBase release 17; Kozomara and Griffiths-Jones, 2011). None of the newly identified genes have been subject to examination for promoter and regulatory sequences. Compared to the previously known miRNAs, these genes have narrower phylogenetic distribution and exhibit weaker expression level and more prominent tissue-specific expression (Rajagopalan et al., 2006; Fahlgren et al. 2007; Yang et al., 2011). Based on these observations, it has been argued that continuous gene birth and death allows beneficial miRNAs to be maintained while deleterious ones avoided (Rajagopalan et al., 2006; Fahlgren et al. 2007; Chen and Rajewsky, 2007; Axtell and Bowman, 2008). Identification of the promoter regions of these MIR genes and their comparison to those of the conserved are highly desirable to fully elucidate miRNA based gene regulation. In the current study, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-chip for the Pol II complex using the Affymetrix 'At35b_MR_v04' array. We designed a computational approach using genome-wide RPol II binding patterns to identify the promoter region and transcription start site of pri-miRNAs that are actively transcribed.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed with modification of the protocols described before (Lee et al., 2006; Lilja et al., 2007). Briefly, the chorion was removed from 12-hour old embryos, cross-linked using 2% paraformaldehyde and resuspended in storage buffer (50mM Tris-HCl pH8.0, 1 mM EDTA). Embryos were then lysed in SDS-lysis buffer (1.0 ml 5 M NaCl, 2.5 ml 1 M Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.5 ml 0.5M EDTA, 2.5 ml 10 % SDS), resuspended in SDS-lysis and Triton buffer (1.0 ml 5 M NaCl, 5.0 ml 1 M Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.5 ml 0.5M EDTA, 2.5 ml Triton X-100, protease inhibitor cocktail) and sonicated on ice to an average length of 350 bp. The resulting sheared chromatin (25Izg) was subjected to immunoprecipitation using anti-Myc antibody (Santa Cruz) as described previously (Lee et al., 2006). ChIP-sequencing libraries were constructed following manufactureras instructions (Illumina). The resulting DNA libraries were sequenced using Illumina platform (University of Massachusetts Medical School Core Facility).

Project description:Adipose tissue is a plentiful and easily accessible source of mesenchymal stem cells that have been shown to be multi potent and possibly have immuno suppressive capacity(Zuk, Zhu et al. 2002; McIntosh, Zvonic et al. 2006; Prichard, Reichert et al. 2008). Several studies have identified hypoxia and the molecular effector of reduced oxygen tension, HIF1α to be essential in the differentiation processes, stem cell proliferation and survival as well as in maintenance of stem cell characteristics (Lennon, Edmison et al. 2001; Goda, Ryan et al. 2003; Wang, Fermor et al. 2005; Lin, Lee et al. 2006; Malladi, Xu et al. 2007; Ohnishi, Yasuda et al. 2007). The fact that oxygen has a central role in cell development and metabolism makes the regulation of oxygen tension a valuable tool in the attempt of exploiting stem cells to their full potential. In the current study we investigate the transcriptional changes caused by two weeks of monolayer hypoxic expansion of human adipose tissue derived stem cells (ASCs). Application of the XVivo hypoxic workstation (BioSpherix, Redfield, NY) made it possible to conduct the expansion of six ASC lines at four different hypoxic conditions in parallel covering the range from mild (15% oxygen) to full hypoxic (1% oxygen) conditions. In this comprehensive investigation the Illumina bead microarray platform was employed to give a profound and new insight in the molecular changes effectuated by hypoxic expansion. The findings of this study demonstrate the significance of biologic variation in the transcriptional response to mild hypoxic expansion and display evidence that full hypoxic growth conditions at 1% oxygen tension selects for a more prolific cell population of reduced chondrogenic potential.

Project description:Galectin-1 is a prototype member of the galectin family of b-galactoside-binding proteins with several immunoregulatory activities (Sundblad et al., 2017). Although this lectin exerts extracellular activities by cross-linking cell surface glycoconjugates, the mechanisms and molecular machinery involved in its secretion are uncertain as it lacks the classical signal sequence required for ER-Golgi release (Camby, 2006; Croci et al., 2014). To assess the global impact of galectin-1 on LPS-induced transcriptomic response, we performed RNAseq analysis of total RNAs from the spleen and the lungs of wild-type and Lgals1-/- mice injected with LPS.

Project description:The vacuole occupies a large portion of plant cell volume, it is especially true to fruit tissues. Berry flesh cell vacuole serves as storage organelle for water, sugars, acids, secondary metabolites and others, which largely determining berry quality (Fontes et al., 2011a, b; Shiratake and Martinoia, 2007, Conde et al., 2006). However, the molecular basis of these compartmentation processes is still poorly understood. As in many species, the major bottle neck to study these aspects in grapevine is to obtain highly purified vacuoles with a good yield (Fontes et al., 2010). Up to date, several vacuole or tonoplast proteome researches were applied on a few plants mainly on Arabidopsis thaliana, vacuoles or tonoplast were derived from mesophyll cells (Carter et al., 2004, Endler et al., 2006, Schulze, et al., 2012) or cell culture (Jaquinod et al 2006, Shimaoka et al 2004), cauliflower buds (Schmidt et al., 2007) and sugar beet taproots (Jung et al., 2015). Though the grape berry protoplasts and intact vacuoles were successfully isolated from Cabernet Sauvignon berry suspension-cultured cells (Fontes et al., 2010), the vacuoles isolated from grape berry or different development and ripening stages of grape berry mesocarp tissues were not achieved.

Project description:Intraocular tuberculosis (IOTB) is a significant cause of visual morbidity in TB-endemic countries. However, pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) in the ocular compartment is poorly defined. IOTB is paucibacillary in a vast majority of patients although M. tb has been detected in both the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells (Rao et al. 2006) and in the intraocular fluid (IOF) (Aggarwal et al., 2016; Bajgai et al., 2017) in some cases. In this study, we have examined the replication and whole genome transcriptome of M. tb in an IOF model (artificial IOF; AIOF) (Macri et al., 2015). Results show that, as reported for transcriptional profiles of M. tb in sputum (Sharma et al., 2017) and in a starvation model (PBS) (Betts et al., 2002), genes involved in active replication and aerobic respiration are either downregulated or not differentially expressed in the AIOF. In ARPE-19 cells (human RPE cell line), M. tb replicates poorly and exhibits a quiescent phenotype (Abhishek et al., 2018). As in sputum, PBS, and ARPE-19 cells, M. tb in AIOF downregulates genes of the DosR regulon indicating the suppression of dormancy. Importantly, genes encoding ESAT-6 and ESAT-6-like proteins are also downregulated or not differentially expressed in sputum, AIOF and ARPE-19 cells. This is stark contrast to the transcriptome of M. tb in alveolar epithelial cells (Ryndak et al., 2015) and in blood (Ryndak et al. 2014). These results paint a scenario wherein M. tb acquires a replicative and invasive phenotype when it infects a new host and disseminates systemically. However, M. tb acquires a quiescent phenotype upon reaching its final niche in an extrapulmonary site, the ocular environment.

Project description:The compaction degree of chromatin is intimately related to its functionality and active cis-regulatory elements typically exist within open chromatin regions depleted in nucleosomes (Heintzman et al. 2007; Boyle et al. 2008). These domains can be identified using Formaldehyde-Assisted Isolation of Regulatory Elements (FAIRE) that allows for enrichment of nucleosome-depleted genomic regions when cross-linked chromatin is subjected to phenol-chloroform extraction (Nagy et al. 2003; Hogan et al. 2006) Here, chromatin structure was analyzed in MCF7 and LNCaP cells using Formaldehyde-Assisted Isolation of Regulatory Elements (FAIRE) (Nagy et al. 2003; Hogan et al. 2006) Keywords: FAIRE-chip
