Project description:Peripheral blood leukocytes of three human donors (Donors 2, 4, and 5) were isolated from blood bank buffy-coat preparations by Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient centrifugation, and T-cells were purified with high affinity negative selection human CD3+ T-cell enrichment columns. The cells were resuspended in RPMI-1640 with 10% FCS with approximately 3-8 millions cells/mL at room temperature overnight. T-cells were then either unactivated (1g 0 hr), activated (1g 4 hr) with a final concentration of 5 mg/mL Con A + 4 mg/mL anti-CD28 antibody and incubated for 4 hours at 37°C, or loaded onto a RPM rotating at 60°/s (vg). T-cells loaded on the RPM were cultured for 2 hours prior to collection or activation to allow equilibration of cells to the new environment. After incubation, 1 mL of 4 M guanidinium isothiocyanate in 750 mM sodium citrate buffer, pH 7, with N-lauroylsarcosine and ß-mercaptoethanol was added to lyse cells and stabilize RNA.

Project description:This study tested the hypothesis that transcription of immediate early genes is inhibited in T cells activated in microgravity (mg). Immunosuppression during spaceflight is a major barrier to safe long-term human space habitation and travel. The goals of these experiments were to prove that mg was the cause of impaired T cell activation during spaceflight as well as understand the mechanisms controlling early T cell activation. T cells from 4 human donors were stimulated with concanavalin A (ConA) and anti-CD28 onboard the International Space Station (ISS). An onboard centrifuge was used to generate a 1g simultaneous control to isolate the effects of mg from other variables of spaceflight. Microarray expression analysis after 1.5 hours of activation demonstrated that mg- and 1g-activated T cells had distinct patterns of global gene expression and identified 47 genes that were significantly differentially down-regulated in mg. Importantly, several key immediate early genes were inhibited in mg. T cells were isolated from human volunteers. T cells from each donor were kept separate and loaded into individual chambers in separate cassettes for the following treatments: mg non-activated, mg activated, and 1g activated. Therefore, samples represent biological triplicates. Experimental units were launched into space and placed into the KUBIK facility onboard the International Space Station. The 1g units were placed in the central centrifuge positions and centrifuged with an applied 1g force. The mg units were place in the static positions for continued mg exposure. After 30 minutes of pre-incubation, mg non-activated units were fixed by addition of RNALater (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA), removed from the incubator, and stored in 4M-BM-0C. The mg and 1g activated units were injected with final concentration 10mg/ml Con A and 4mg/ml anti-CD28. These cassettes were replaced into KUBIK on either the centrifuge or static positions and activated for 1.5 hours. Activation was stopped with the addition of RNALater and the units were then moved to 4M-BM-0C storage. All units were returned to Earth for analysis.

Project description:The objective of this experiment was to compare the transcriptional profile of T cells modified to express CAR, TBBR and 4/7 ICR (i.e. SmarT-cells) against control 1G CAR T cells expressing CD3z endodomain. RNA samples were isolated from trangenic T cells generated from three independent donors.

Project description:The chromatin fraction was isolated from 5x107 HeLa cells. Chromatin was digested in 100 mL of MNase (40 units/ mL ) reaction buffer for 3 min at 37 °C in a thermomixer (1,400 rpm). After addition of 10 L EGTA (25mM) to inactivate MNase, soluble digested chromatin was collected by 13,000 rpm centrifuge for 5 min. 10 mg of Pol II antibody was conjugated to magnetic protein A beads. The supernatant was diluted with 400 mL of NET-2 buffer and pSer2-Pol II antibody-conjugated beads were added. Incubated the IP reaction at 4 °C for 1 hr. The beads were washed with 1 mL of NET-2 buffer six times and 100 mL of 1xPNKT (1xPNK buffer and 0.05% Triton X-100) buffer once. Washed beads were incubated in 50 mL PNK reaction mix (1xPNKT, 1 mM ATP and 0.05 U/ml T4 PNK (NEB)) in Thermomixer at 37 °C, 1,400 rpm for 6 min. Beads were washed with 1 mL of NET-2 buffer once and RNA was extracted with Trizol reagent. RNA was suspended in urea Dye (7M Urea, 1xTBE, 0.1% BPB and 0.1% XC) and resolved on 6% TBU gel (Invitrogen) at 200 V for 5 min. Gels with 30-160 nt RNAs were collected. 0.2 mL tube was prepared with holes made with 25G needle and placed in a 1.5 mL tube. Gel fragments were placed in the layered tube and broken down by centrifugation at 12,000 rpm for 1 min. The small RNAs were eluted from gel using RNA elution buffer (1 M NaOAc and 1 mM EDTA) at 25 °C for 1 hr in Thermomixer (900 rpm). Eluted RNA was purified with SpinX column (Coster) with 2 glass filters (Millipore) and the flow-through RNA was ethanol precipitated.

Project description:We recently revealed that myeloid master regulator PU.1 directly represses metallothionein (MT)-1G through its epigenetic activity, but the functions of MT-1G in myeloid differentiation remain unknown. To clarify this, we established MT-1G-overexpressing acute promyelocytic leukemia NB4 (NB4MTOE) cells, and investigated whether MT-1G functionally contributes to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-induced NB4 cell differentiation. Real-time PCR analyses demonstrated that the inductions of CD11b and CD11c and reductions in myeloperoxidase and c-myc by ATRA were attenuated in NB4MTOE cells. Since G1 arrest is a hallmark of ATRA-induced NB4 cell differentiation, we observed a decrease in G1 accumulation, as well as decreases in p21WAF1/CIP1 and cyclin D1 inductions, by ATRA in NB4MTOE cells. Nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction assays revealed that the proportions of NBT-positive cells were decreased in NB4MTOE cells in the presence of ATRA. Microarray analyses showed that the changes in expression of several myeloid differentiation-related genes (GATA2, azurocidin 1, pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase 1, defensin-4, C-X3-C motif receptor 3, matrix metallopeptidase -8, S100 calcium-binding protein A12, neutrophil cytosolic factor 2 and oncostatin M) induced by ATRA were disturbed in NB4MTOE cells. Collectively, overexpression of MT-1G disturbs the proper differentiation of myeloid cells. The present study provides evidence that expression analysis of MT-1G in acute promyelocytic leukemia patients may be a good prediction marker to estimate the efficacy of ATRA. Cell culture and generation of MT-1G-overexpressing cells: To generate MT-1G-overexpressing cells and their control cells, the MT-1G expression vector and its parental pcDNA 3.1/myc-His(-) version A vector (Invitrogen) were transfected using a CLB-Transfection device (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland). NB4 clones stably transfected with the vectors were isolated by limiting dilution and selection with 400 µg/ml of neomycin in RPMI (Gibco BRL, Rockville, MD) containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (HIFBS). Cells were cultured under 5% CO2 at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere. Microarray analyses: MT-1G-overexpressing (NB4MTOE) cells and their control cells were seeded at a density of 1×105 cells/ml and treated with 1 µM all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). The cells were harvested after 72 h and total cellular RNA was isolated from control (NB4pcDNA4, 6, 7) cells and NB4MTOE (NB4MT22, 23, 25) cells using an RNA Mini Purification Kit (Qiagen, Miami, FL) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Aliquots containing 10 µg of RNA from each sample of control cells were mixed and used as controls. Similarly, 10 µg of RNA from each sample of NB4MTOE cells were mixed and used as NB4MTOE cells. The samples were subjected to microarray analyses using a CodeLink Human 54K Whole Genome Bioarray (Filgen, Nagoya, Japan).
