Project description:Elucidating the top of the mammary epithelial cell hierarchy is highly important for understanding its regeneration capabilities and identifying target cells for transformation. Aiming for enriched mammary epithelial stem cell population, CD200highCD200R1high epithelial cells were identified. These cells represent ~50% of the mammary repopulating units (MRUs, CD49fhigh CD24med ) and termed MRUCD200/CD200R1. Gene expression of these cells was compared to all other MRU cells, termed MRUnot CD200/CD200R1, as well as individual CD200+ population (MRU-CD200R1-) and CD200R1+ population (MRU-CD200-).

Project description:Fibroblasts are key orchestrators of inflammation. Little is known whether these cells change phenotype during resolution of inflammation. We adopted a method to visualise fibroblast activation during inflammation in humans in vivo, which is based on a fibroblast activation protein (FAP) tracer detected by positron emission tomography (PET). While tracer accumulation was high in active arthritis, it decreased significantly after TNF- and IL-17A inhibition. Biopsy-based scRNA-seq analyses in experimental arthritis demonstrated that FAP signal reduction reflected a phenotypic switch from pro-inflammatory MMP3+/IL6+ fibroblasts (high FAP internalisation) to pro-resolving CD200+DKK3+ fibroblasts (low FAP internalisation). Spatial transcriptomics of human joints revealed that pro-resolving niches of CD200+DKK3+ fibroblasts clustered with innate lymphoid cells (ILC)2, whereas MMP3+/IL6+ fibroblasts were co-localised with inflammatory immune cells. CD200+DKK3+ fibroblasts stabilised the ILC2 phenotype and induced resolution of arthritis via CD200/CD200R1 pathway. Taken together, these data suggest a dynamic molecular regulation of the mesenchymal compartment during resolution of inflammation.

Project description:Compared to the initiation and elongation stages of transcription, the role of chromatin in transcription termination is poorly understood. Through a yeast genetic screen, we identified histone H3 and H4 substitutions that cause transcription to read through the terminator of a small noncoding gene. The substitutions map to the nucleosome DNA entry-exit site, a region that controls nucleosome stability and certain histone modifications. Genome-wide studies on the strongest mutants revealed evidence of transcription read-through of noncoding and coding genes and reduced nucleosome occupancy. Replacement of the native sequence downstream of a gene with a “superbinder” sequence that increases nucleosome occupancy in vivo increased termination efficiency and suppressed the effect of a DNA entry-exit site substitution at this locus. Our results highlight the importance of the DNA entry-exit site in maintaining the integrity of the transcriptome and suggest that nucleosomes can facilitate termination by serving as a barrier to RNA polymerase.

Project description:CD81 is a protein found in the cells of all vertebrates, including humans. CD81 performs an important role in the natural biology of a cell: it organises collections of proteins at the cell surface, allowing them to function together. Through this role, CD81 facilitates the activation of immune cells and the fusion of sperm and egg cells during fertilisation. As well these normal functions, CD81 is a receptor for hepatitis C virus, and malaria, to gain entry to liver cells. It was recently suggested that CD81 may be able to sense cholesterol at the cell surface, resulting in a switch-like movement in CD81, however, it is unknown whether this feature affects CD81 function. In this study, we generated variants of CD81 with disruptions in cholesterol sensing, and its associated switching mechanism. Our experiments suggest that HCV entry is dependent on the cholesterol-bound form of CD81, in which the switch is in a closed position. Our study provides evidence that cholesterol sensing is important for CD81 function; this work paves the way for future investigations into the role of CD81 in both health and disease.

Project description:Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS), induced by the adoptive transfer of myelin-reactive CD4+ T cells into naive syngeneic mice. It is widely used as a rodent model of multiple sclerosis (MS). The development of EAE lesions is initiated when transferred CD4+ T cells access the CNS and are reactivated by local antigen-presenting cells (APCs) bearing endogenous myelin peptide/MHC class II complexes. The identity of the CNS-resident, lesion-initiating APCs is widely debated. Here we demonstrate that classical dendritic cells (cDCs) normally reside in the meninges, brain, and spinal cord in the steady state. These cells are unique among candidate CNS APCs in their ability to stimulate naive, as well as effector, myelin-specific T cells to proliferate and produce proinflammatory cytokines directly ex vivo. cDCs expanded in the meninges and CNS parenchyma in association with disease progression. Selective depletion of cDCs led to a decrease in the number of myelin-primed donor T cells in the CNS and reduced the incidence of clinical EAE by half. Based on our findings, we propose that cDCs, and the factors that regulate them, be further investigated as potential therapeutic targets in MS.
