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:Alterations in RNA Polymerase II kinetics can affect key co-transcriptional processes such as normal splicing and transcript elongation and can influence nonsense mediated decay (Fong et al., 2014; Jonkers and Lis, 2015). Specific types of DNA damage can variably influence RNA Pol II activity. We performed Total RNA Pol ll ChIP-seq to investigate how the chronic DNA damage can affect RNA Pol ll activity in the cerebellum tissues.

Project description:The WRKY family represents a plant-specific class of zinc-finger transcription factors (TF) well known for regulating abiotic and biotic stress tolerance and also for their emergent role in the control of various developmental and physiological processes (Rushton et al. 2010, Schluttenhofer et al. 2015). The well-characterized AtTTG2, PhPH3 and BnTTG2 are ortholog WRKY proteins with interchangeable functions ascribed to an emergent clade whose regulatory functions are mainly associated with vacuolar metabolism (Li et al. 2015, Verweij et al. 2016, Gonzalez et al. 2016). In particular, PH3 of Petunia hybrida and TTG2 of Arabidopsis thaliana both act in the control of vacuolar pH and trafficking influencing the deposition of secondary metabolites in the petal epidermal cells and in the seed coat, respectively (Verweij et al. 2016, Gonzalez et al. 2016). In this study we functional characterized VvWRKY26 identified as the closest grapevine homolog of PhPH3 and AtTTG2 (Wang et al. 2014; Verweij et al. 2016). VvWRKY26 can fulfil the PH3 function in the regulation of vacuolar pH and impact many aspects of transport when constitutively expressed in petunia ph3 mutant. By a global correlation analysis of gene expression and by transient over-expression in Vitis vinifera cv. Sultana, we showed transcriptomic relationships of VvWRKY26 with many genes related to acidification and trafficking in grapevine. Moreover, our results indicate an involvement in flavonoid pathway mainly in the control in PA biosynthesis in grapevine that is supported by its expression profile. Overall, with the identification of VvWRKY26 our studies might pave the way towards the comprehension of regulatory mechanism underlying the acidification that contributes to the final berry quality traits.

Project description:Recurrent mutations in the splicing factors SRSF2 and SF3B1 are common in myelodysplasia (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). These mutations are invariably heterozygous, as cells with splicing factor mutations nevertheless depend on wild-type splicing activity. Disrupting splicing further is lethal, suggesting a therapeutic vulnerability for splicing factor mutant hematopoietic neoplasms. Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) phosphorylates multiple splicing factors, including SRSF2 and SF3B1, and regulates the splicing of a broad range of mRNAs in human cells. Inhibition of GSK-3 disrupts splicing and promotes cell death in hematopoietic cells with heterozygous mutations in SRSF2 or SF3B1 and not in cells with wild-type splicing factors. To characterize how GSK-3 inhibition alters splicing and leads to cell death in SRSF2P95H/+ and SF3B1K700E/+ cells, we have performed deep RNA sequencing on K562 cells with SRSF2P95H/+ or SF3B1K700E/+ knocked into the endogenous locus (provided by Omar Abdel-Wahab (Wang et al; PMID 30799057) and treated with the GSK-3 inhibitor CHIR99021. Parental cells with wild-type splicing factors were included as controls. RNA-Seq data were further analyzed through the rMATS pipeline to assess changes in mRNA splicing (Liu et al, 2023).

Project description:Ependymomas are neuroepithelial tumors of the central nervous system (CNS), presenting in both adults and children but accounting for almost 10% of all pediatric CNS tumors and up to 30% of CNS tumors in children under 3 years (Bouffet et al., 2009; McGuire et al., 2009; Rodriguez et al., 2009). In children, most ependymomas arise in the posterior fossa, while most adult ependymomas present around the lower spinal cord and spinal nerve roots. Ependymomas display a wide range of morphological features, and several variants are listed in the World Health Organization (WHO) classification (Ellison et al., 2016). These variants are assigned to three WHO grades (I-III), but the clinical utility of this classification is acknowledged to be limited (Ellison et al., 2011). An increasing understanding of the genomic landscape of ependymoma and the discovery of distinct molecular groups by DNA methylation or gene expression profiling have begun to refine approaches to disease classification and prognostication, but have yet to be translated into clinical routine (Hoffman et al., 2014; Mack et al., 2014; Pajtler et al., 2017; Pajtler et al., 2015; Parker et al., 2014; Wani et al., 2012; Witt et al., 2011). Our comprehensive study of DNA methylation profiling across the entire disease demonstrated three molecular groups for each major anatomic compartment: supratentorial (ST), posterior fossa (PF), and spinal (SP) (Pajtler et al., 2015). In the ST compartment, two molecular groups (ST-EPN-RELA and ST-EPN-YAP1) align with tumors harboring specific genetic alterations, RELA and YAP1 fusion genes, which were initially discovered in a whole genome sequencing study (Parker et al., 2014). Among PF ependymomas, two of three molecular groups, PFA (PF-EPN-A) and PFB (PF-EPN-B), account for nearly all tumors; PF-SE tumors are rare, generally showing the morphology of a subependymoma (Pajtler et al., 2015). PFA tumors are found mainly in infants and young children (median age ≈ 3yrs) and have a relatively poor outcome, while PFB tumors are generally found in young adults (median age ≈ 30yrs) and are associated with a better prognosis (Pajtler et al., 2015; Witt et al., 2011). PFA tumors show few copy number alterations (CNAs), while PFB tumors harbor multiple CNAs that tend to affect entire chromosomes. While recurrent structural variants (SVs) are found in ST ependymomas, recurrent SVs or other mutations, such as single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and insertions or deletions (indels), have not been identified in PF ependymomas to date (Mack et al., 2014; Parker et al., 2014).

Project description:Lewy body (LB) pathology and loss of dopaminergic neurons are imprints of Parkinson’s disease (PD). LBs are mainly comprised of alpha-Synuclein (Dijkstra et al., 2014). Strolling detection of LBs in brain regions contribute to progressive construct of PD pathology to which molecular mechanisms are not clear (H. Braak & Del Tredici, 2017). Two key facets of LB formation are protein aggregation via misfolding and transmission of misfoldled proteins to various brain regions, eventually causing neuronal death (Goedert, Spillantini, Del Tredici, & Braak, 2013; Pacelli et al., 2015). Misfolding requires alterations in intracellular physiology (Carbone, Costa, Provensi, Mannaioni, & Masi, 2017; Funes et al., 2014; Guzman et al., 2018; Pacelli et al., 2015) and detection of misfolded proteins in exosomes confirms exosomatic transmission (Ngolab et al., 2017). High levels of neurotropic-factors (Brockmann et al., 2017) and changes in bioenergetics are found in PD patients, these can bring physiological alterations (Smith et al., 2018). En masse, these evidences and hipocampal association with synucleopathies (Flores-Cuadrado, Ubeda-Bañon, Saiz-Sanchez, de la Rosa-Prieto, & Martinez-Marcos, 2016) allowed us to probe other volunerable PD proteins in cell-lysate and exosomal proteomes of bFGF treated hippocampal neurons. Using WPCNA we developed co-expression modules and spotted many PD related proteins; which can act as precursors during diseased or onset stage.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments were conducted as previously described (Ito et al, 2013) using anti-H3K4me3 (Millipore, #07-473), anti-H3K4me1 (Abcam, #ab8895), or anti-Kdm5C (Iwase et al., 2016). Hippocampi derived from two different animals were pooled together for each sample and two independent biological replicates per condition were sequenced according to manufacturer instructions in a HiSeq2500 apparatus (Illumina, Inc). Information on library preparation method, size of the libraries, and mapping to reference genome can be found in Supplementary Material accompanying the manuscript. ChIP-seq reads were aligned to the mouse genome (Mus_musculus.GRCm.38.83) using bowtie2 (v2.2.9) (Langmead and Salzberg, 2012) and further processed using samtools (v1.3.1) (Li et al., 2009). Peak calling was performed using MACS2 (v2.1.0) (Zhang et al., 2008) with default parameters except for Kdm5c that were as follows: -q 0.01 --nomodel --extsize 131 --broad --broad-cutoff 0.1. Read counts on aligned bam files were performed using Rsubread (v1.22.3) (Liao et al., 2014). Differential peak methylation analysis for H3K4me3 chromatin mark was performed using DESeq2 (v1.10.0) (Love et al., 2014) of the bioconductor suite (Huber et al., 2015) in the R (v3.3) statistical computing platform. For consideration of differentially methylated regions between conditions, we used adjusted p-value < 0.05 as indicated in the manuscript.
