Project description:Glucocorticoids (GCs) exert potent anti-inflammatory effects in innate immune cells through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Dendritic cells (DCs), central actors for coordinating immune responses, acquire tolerogenic properties in response to GCs. Tolerogenic DCs (tolDCs) have emerged as a potential treatment for different inflammatory diseases. To date, the underlying cell type-specific regulatory mechanisms orchestrating GC-mediated acquisition of immunosuppressive properties remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the transcriptomic and epigenomic remodeling associated with differentiation to DCs in the presence of GCs. Our analysis demonstrates a major role of MAFB in this process, in synergy with GR. Both GR and MAFB interact with methylcytosine dioxygenase TET2 and bind to genomic loci that undergo specific demethylation in tolDCs. We also show that the role of MAFB is more extensive, binding to thousands of genomic loci in tolDCs. Finally, MAFB knockdown erases the tolerogenic properties of tolDCs and reverts the specific DNA demethylation and gene upregulation. The preeminent role of MAFB is also demonstrated in vivo for myeloid cells from synovium in rheumatoid arthritis following GC treatment. These results support that, once directly activated by GR, MAFB takes over the main roles to orchestrate the epigenomic and transcriptomic remodelling that define the tolerogenic phenotype.

Project description:MafA and MafB transcription factors have been shown to be key regulators of insulin and glucagon transcription. MafB is essential for alpha and beta cell differentiation, as MafB deficient mice produced fewer insulin+ and glucagon+ cells during development, with MafA expressed in remaining insulin+ cells. In contrast, beta cell development was reported to be normal in a total MafA knock out, although the animals developed beta cell dysfunction and diabetes as adults. However, we have found that MafB expression is elevated during development and retained in adult insulin+ cells after conditional removal of MafA in the pancreas. These studies will evaluate the broader significance of these insulin and glucagon regulators in alpha and beta cell development and function. Our efforts will focus on determining if the concerted actions of MafA and MafB factors are significant to beta cell formation, and we specifically plan to: Determine how alpha and beta cell differentiation is affected in MafA/MafB compound mutant mice during pancreas development. cDNA microarray studies (pancchip 6.0) with wild type, MafAKO, MafB-/-, and MafAKOMafB-/- mutant E18.5 pancreata will be performed to comprehensively identify genes controlled by MafA and MafB in developing alpha and beta cells.

Project description:The intent of this experiment was to determine MAFB binding sites in human pancreatic beta cells. This is particularly relevant as MAFB is not expressed in mature rodent beta cells; thus, it may perform unique functions in human. Sequencing was performed following IP with an anti-MAFB antibody using chromatin isolated from the human pancreatic beta cell line, EndoCBH2 cells. Cells were proliferating and untreated when collected.

Project description:MafB is a member of the large Maf family of transcription factors that share similar basic region/leucine zipper DNA binding motifs and N-terminal activation domains.Although it is well known that MafB is specifically expressed in macrophages, characterization of the null mutant phenotype in these tissues has not been previously reported. To investigate suspected MafB functions macrophages, we generated mafB/green fluorescent protein (GFP) knock-in null mutant mice. MafB deficiency was found to dramatically suppress F4/80 expression in nonadherent macrophages. To investigate detail function of MafB in nonadherent macrophages, we performed microarray analysis. Macrophages were derived from day 14.5 fetal livers of mafB- /- and WT mice. Suspensions of single fetal liver cells were prepared by mechanical disruption . A total of 106 cells in suspension were centrifuged at 1,200 rpm for 5 min, and the cell pellet was resuspended in Dulbeccoâs modified Eagleâs medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (heat inactivated), streptomycin and penicillin (100 units/ml), and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) (10 ng/ml) and then seeded either onto a nonadhesive dishes coated with hydrophilic polymers (Hydrocell; Cell Seed, Tokyo). The culture medium was not changed throughout the experiment. M-CSF (final concentration, 10 ng/ml) was added every day from day 4 onwards. One, 2, 4, and 6 days after seeding, the cells were harvested and analyzed by flow cytometry. After 6 day culture, macrophages of Mafb-/- and WT were use microarray analysis .

Project description:The transcription factor MafB is essential for differentiation and foot process formation of podocytes. In order to identify the downstream targets of MafB, we analyzed the Mafb-deficient podocyte by RNA-seq. We found slit diaphragm-related protein (Nphs1, Magi2), Rho GTPase-activating protein (Arhgap24, Iqgap2) and podocyte-specific transcription factor (Tcf21) were significantly reduced in MafB cKO glomeruli. This indicates that one of these factors might be directly regulated by MafB to maintain its function in podocyte maintenance.
