The long non-coding RNA Morrbid regulates Bim and short-lived myeloid cell lifespan (ChIP-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Neutrophils, eosinophils and “classical” monocytes collectively account for ~70% of human blood leukocytes and are among the shortest-lived cells in the body. Precise regulation of the lifespan of these myeloid cells is critical to maintain protective immune responses while minimizing the deleterious consequences of prolonged inflammation. However, how the lifespan of these cells is strictly controlled remains largely unknown. Here, we identify a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that we termed Morrbid, which tightly controls the survival of neutrophils, eosinophils and “classical” monocytes in response to pro-survival cytokines. To control the lifespan of these cells, Morrbid regulates the transcription of its neighboring pro-apoptotic gene, Bcl2l11 (Bim), by promoting the enrichment of the PRC2 complex at the Bcl2l11 promoter to maintain this gene in a poised state. Notably, Morrbid regulates this process in cis, enabling allele-specific control of Bcl2l11 transcription. Thus, in these highly inflammatory cells, changes in Morrbid levels provide a locus-specific regulatory mechanism that allows for rapid control of apoptosis in response to extracellular pro-survival signals. As MORRBID is also present in humans and dysregulated in patients with hypereosinophilic syndrome, this lncRNA may represent a potential therapeutic target for inflammatory disorders characterized by aberrant short-lived myeloid cell lifespan.

The long non-coding RNA Morrbid regulates Bim and short-lived myeloid cell lifespan (ATAC-Seq)

The long non-coding RNA Morrbid regulates CD8 T cells in response to viral infection

Project description:The transcriptional programs that regulate CD8 T cell differentiation and function in the context of viral infections or tumor immune surveillance have been extensively studied; yet, how long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and the loci that transcribe them contribute to the regulation of CD8 T cells during viral infections remains largely unexplored. Here, we report that transcription of the lncRNA Morrbid is specifically induced by T cell receptor (TCR) and type I IFN stimulation during the early stages of acute and chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. In response to type I IFN, the Morrbid RNA and its locus control CD8 T cell expansion, survival, and effector function by regulating the expression of the pro-apoptotic factor, Bcl2l11, and by modulating the strength of the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. Thus, our results demonstrate that inflammatory cue-responsive lncRNA loci represent fundamental mechanisms by which CD8 T cells are regulated in response to pathogens and potentially cancer.

Expression data from middle-aged and old Drosophila females

Project description:The mechanisms underlying natural variation in lifespan and ageing rate remain largely unknown. We performed microarray experiment to characterise genome-wide expression patterns of a long-lived, natural variant of Drosophila melanogaster resulting from selection for starvation resistance (SR) and compare it with normal-lived control flies (C). We sampled adult females at two time points representing middle age (90% survival) and old age (10% survival) respectively, in three adult diets (malnutrition, optimal food, and overfeeding).

The germline regulates longevity and somatic repair in a sex-specific manner (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Classical evolutionary theories propose tradeoffs between reproduction, damage repair, and lifespan. However, the specific role of the germline in shaping vertebrate aging remains largely unknown. Here, we use the turquoise killifish (N. furzeri) to genetically arrest germline differentiation at discrete stages, and examine how different ‘flavors’ of infertility impact life-history. We first constructed a comprehensive single-cell gonadal atlas, providing cell-type-specific markers for downstream phenotypic analysis. Next, investigating our genetic models revealed that only germline ablation enhanced female damage repair, while arresting germline differentiation did not. Conversely, germline-ablated males were significantly long-lived, indicating that the mere presence of the germline can negatively affect lifespan. Transcriptomic analysis highlighted enrichment of pro-longevity pathways and genes, with functional conservation in germline-ablated C. elegans. Finally, germline depletion extended male healthspan through rejuvenated metabolic functions. Our results suggest that different germline manipulation paradigms can yield pronounced sexually dimorphic phenotypes, implying alternative mechanisms to classical evolutionary tradeoffs.

BATF represses BIM to sustain tolerant T cells in the periphery (RNA-Seq)

Project description:T cells that encounter self-antigens after exiting the thymus avert autoimmunity through peripheral tolerance. Pathways for this include an unresponsive state known as anergy, clonal deletion, and T regulatory (Treg) cell induction. The transcription factor cues and kinetics that guide distinct peripheral tolerance outcomes remain unclear. Here, we found that anergic T cells are epigenetically primed for regulation by the non-classical AP-1 family member BATF. Tolerized BATF-deficient CD4+ T cells were resistant to anergy induction and instead underwent clonal deletion due to pro-apoptotic BIM (Bcl2l11) upregulation. During prolonged antigen exposure, BIM de-repression resulted in fewer PD-1+ conventional T cells as well as loss of peripherally-induced FOXP3+ Treg cells. Simultaneous Batf and Bcl2l11 knockdown meanwhile restored anergic T cell survival and Treg cell maintenance. The data identify the AP-1 nuclear factor BATF as a dominant driver of sustained T cell anergy and illustrate a mechanism for divergent peripheral tolerance fates.
