Project description:Among its many roles in development, retinoic acid determines the anterior-posterior identity of differentiating motor neurons by activating Retinoic Acid Receptor (RAR)-mediated transcription. RAR is thought to bind the genome constitutively, and only induce transcription in the presence of the retinoid ligand. However, little is known about where RAR binds to the genome or how it selects target sites. We tested the constitutive RAR binding model using the retinoic acid-driven differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into differentiated motor neurons. We find that retinoic acid treatment results in widespread changes in RAR genomic binding, including novel binding to genes directly responsible for anterior-posterior specification, as well as the subsequent recruitment of the basal polymerase machinery. Finally, we discovered that the binding of transcription factors at the embryonic stem cell stage can accurately predict where in the genome RAR binds after initial differentiation. We have characterized a ligand-dependent shift in RAR genomic occupancy at the initiation of neurogenesis. Our data also suggests that enhancers active in pluripotent embryonic stem cells may be preselecting regions that will be activated by RAR during neuronal differentiation. The differentiation of ventral motor neurons is induced by treating embryonic stem cell cultures with retinoic acid. Here, ChIP-seq is used to profile the genome-wide occupancy of RAR isofroms both immediately prior to and during exposure of the cells to retinoic acid. ChIP-seq is also used to profile the genomic occupancy of Pol2 with phosphorylated serine 5 (Pol2-S5P) and phosphorylated serine 2 (Pol2-S2P) after exposure to retinoic acid.

Project description:Retinoic Acid Receptors (RARs) as a functional heterodimer with Retinoid X Receptors (RXRs), bind a diverse series of RA-response elements (RAREs) in regulated genes. Among them, the non-canonical DR0 elements are bound by RXR-RAR with comparable affinities to DR5 elements but DR0 elements do not act transcriptionally as independent RAREs. In this work, we present structural insight for the recognition of DR5 and DR0 elements by RXR-RAR heterodimer using x-ray crystallography, small angle x-ray scattering, and hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled to mass spectrometry. We solved the crystal structure of RXR-RAR DNA-binding domain in complex with the Rarb2 DR5 and RXR DNA-binding domain in complex with Hoxb13 DR0. While cooperative binding was observed on DR5, on DR0 the two molecules bound non-cooperatively on opposite sides of the DNA. In addition, our data unveil the structural organization and dynamics of the multi-domain RXR-RAR DNA complexes providing evidence for DNA-dependent allosteric communication between domains. Differential binding mode between DR0 and DR5 were observed leading to differences in the conformation and structural dynamics of the multi-domain RXR-RAR DNA complex. These results reveal that the topological organization of the RAR binding element confer regulatory information by modulating the overall topology and structural dynamics of the RXR-RAR heterodimers.

Project description:Retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RAR alpha) is a known estrogen target gene in breast cancer cells. The consequence of RAR alpha induction by estrogen was previously unknown. We now show that RAR alpha is required for efficient estrogen receptor-alpha (ER)-mediated transcription and cell proliferation. RAR alpha can interact with ER-binding sites, but this occurs in an ER-dependent manner, providing a novel role for RAR alpha that is independent of its classic role. We show, on a genome-wide scale, that RAR alpha and ER can co-occupy regulatory regions together within the chromatin. This transcriptionally active co-occupancy and dependency occurs when exposed to the predominant breast cancer hormone, estrogen--an interaction that is promoted by the estrogen-ER induction of RAR alpha. These findings implicate RAR alpha as an essential component of the ER complex, potentially by maintaining ER-cofactor interactions, and suggest that different nuclear receptors can cooperate for effective transcriptional activity in breast cancer cells.

RAR alpha silenced breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines or control siRNA in the presence of estrogen or a vehicle. MCF-7 cells were hormone-depleted for 3 d and treated with 100 nM estrogen for 12 h. There were three biological replicates for each of the four different groups.

Project description:Group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) comprise a heterogeneous family of cytotoxic natural killer (NK) cells and ILC1s. We identifiy a population of “liver-type†ILC1s with transcriptional, phenotypic, and functional features distinct from those of conventional and liver-resident NK cells as well as from other previously described human ILC1 subsets. LT-ILC1s were CD49a+CD94+CD200R1+, expressed the transcription factor T-BET, do not express the activating receptor NKp80, or the transcription factor EOMES. Similar to NK cells, liver-type ILC1s produce IFN-γ, TNF-α, and GM-CSF; however, liver-type ILC1s also produce IL-2 and lack perforin and granzyme B. Liver- type ILC1s are expanded in cirrhotic liver tissues, and they can be produced from blood-derived ILC precursors in vitro in the presence of TGF-β1 and liver sinusoidal endothelial cells. Cells with similar signature and function can also be found in tonsil and intestinal tissues. Collectively, our study identifies and classifies a population of human cross-tissue ILC1s.

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are part of the innate immune cell family. Three different subsets of ILCs, ILC1s, ILC2s and ILCPs can be identified in human peripheral blood. Based on their expression of transcription factors and cytokines, they are considered as being the innate counterparts of CD4 T helper subsets, namely Th1s, Th2s and Th17s. However, ILCs and Th cells have different roles in immunity. Therefore, we compared the transcriptomes of sorted ILC1s, ILC2s, ILCPs, Th1s, Th2s and Th17s from the peripheral blood of three different donors. RNA sequencing of ILC and Th subsets revealed differences in the expression of tens to hundreds of genes. These genes are involved in cell trafficking, innate activation and inhibitory functions. ILC and Th cell subsets also differ in their expressions of long-non coding RNAs.

Project description:Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) ?, ?, and ? heterodimerize with Retinoid X receptors (RXR) ?, ?, and ? and bind the cis-acting response elements known as RAREs to execute the biological functions of retinoic acid during mammalian development. RAR? mediates the anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of retinoids in certain tissues and cancer cells, such as melanoma and neuroblastoma cells. Furthermore, ablation of RAR? enhanced the tumor incidence of Ras transformed keratinocytes and was associated with resistance to retinoid mediated growth arrest and apoptosis. We used microarray analysis to identify genes, which upon 8 or 24 hr of treatment with all-trans retinoic acid display differential expression in RAR? knockout (RAR?KO) murine embryonic stem cells relative to CCE WT cells. We demonstrate that following RA treatment the majority of inducible transcripts are present at lower levels in RAR?KO ES cells compared to WT ES cells. Murine embryonic stem cells (WT and RAR?KO) were treated with either all-trans retinoic acid (up to 24 hr) or with vehicle control (EtOH).

Project description:Group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILC1s) are cytotoxic and interferon gamma-producing lymphocytes lacking antigen-specific receptors, which include ILC1s and natural killer (NK) cells. In mice, ILC1s differ from NK cells, as they develop independently of the NK-specifying transcription factor EOMES, while requiring the repressor ZFP683 (ZNF683 in humans) for tissue residency. Here we identify highly variable ILC1 subtypes across tissues through investigation of human ILC1 diversity by single-cell RNA sequencing and flow cytometry. The intestinal epithelium contained abundant mature EOMES− ILC1s expressing PRDM1 rather than ZNF683, alongside a few immature TCF7+PRDM1− ILC1s. Other tissues harbored NK cells expressing ZNF683 and EOMES transcripts; however, EOMES protein content was variable. These ZNF683+ NK cells are tissue-imprinted NK cells phenotypically resembling ILC1s. The tissue ILC1-NK spectrum also encompassed conventional NK cells and NK cells distinguished by PTGDS expression. These findings establish a foundation for evaluating phenotypic and functional changes within the NK-ILC1 spectrum in diseases.
