Project description:Alternatively-activated macrophages (M2) are known to play a critical role in intestinalization of spasmolytic polypeptide-expressing metaplasia (SPEM), which is a precursor to gastric adenocarcinoma. However, the precise mechanism(s) and critical mediators produced by M2 macrophages that lead to SPEM are unknown. Using established murine models of metaplasia in the stomach, the aim of the present study was to determine how M2 macrophages induce intestinalized SPEM. Macrophages from the stomach corpus of mice with SPEM (DMP-777-treated) or advanced intestinalized SPEM (L635-treated) were isolated and RNA sequencing was performed. IL-33 was the most upregulated cytokine in macrophages associated with intestinalized SPEM. L635-treated IL-33 knock out mice did not develop metaplasia, suggesting that IL-33 is required for the induction of SPEM after acute parietal cell loss. While the loss of IL-33 did not reduce macrophage recruitment into the mucosa, infiltrating macrophages were not M2 polarized. We conclude that IL-33 is necessary for both the induction of mucous metaplasia (SPEM) in the stomach and polarization towards M2 in recruited macrophages. Our data suggest that the inflammatory pathway in the stomach after parietal cell loss resembles pathways associated with allergy-induced airway inflammation, which implicates novel treatment options for gastritis patients to prevent gastric cancer.

Project description:Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvH) is the excessive inflammatory response by mature T cells contained in the graft during bone marrow transplantation. The allogeneic T cells recognize self-antigens as foreign and systemically attack multiple organs mostly with epithelial structures such as the skin, liver and gastrointestinal tract. We could show that IL-33 administration during allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) increased regulatory T cell (Treg) numbers and ameliorated the outcome of GvHD. Furthermore, it is known that IL-33 also has an impact on myeloid cell compartments and we showed that IL-33 delivery together with a loss of FoxP3 positive Treg led to a massive expansion of myeloid cells. With the underlying experiment we wanted to further characterize the myeloid cells when Treg are lost, therefore mice were treated with IL-33 and one group had a loss in FoxP3 cells. CD11b+F4/80+Gr-1lo myeloid cells were sorted and analyzed in the microarray. The examined myeloid cell population shows strong activation of the IFNg transcriptome and are prone to M1 macrophage polarization. Therefore, Treg restrain myeloid cell expansion and polarization during IL-33 delivery.

Project description:Introgressed variants from other species can be an important source of genetic variation because they may arise rapidly, can include multiple mutations on a single haplotype, and have often been pretested by selection in the species of origin. Although introgressed alleles are generally deleterious, several studies have reported introgression as the source of adaptive alleles-including the rodenticide-resistant variant of Vkorc1 that introgressed from Mus spretus into European populations of Mus musculus domesticus. Here, we conducted bidirectional genome scans to characterize introgressed regions into one wild population of M. spretus from Spain and three wild populations of M. m. domesticus from France, Germany, and Iran. Despite the fact that these species show considerable intrinsic postzygotic reproductive isolation, introgression was observed in all individuals, including in the M. musculus reference genome (GRCm38). Mus spretus individuals had a greater proportion of introgression compared with M. m. domesticus, and within M. m. domesticus, the proportion of introgression decreased with geographic distance from the area of sympatry. Introgression was observed on all autosomes for both species, but not on the X-chromosome in M. m. domesticus, consistent with known X-linked hybrid sterility and inviability genes that have been mapped to the M. spretus X-chromosome. Tract lengths were generally short with a few outliers of up to 2.7 Mb. Interestingly, the longest introgressed tracts were in olfactory receptor regions, and introgressed tracts were significantly enriched for olfactory receptor genes in both species, suggesting that introgression may be a source of functional novelty even between species with high barriers to gene flow.

Project description:Translational research is commonly performed in the C57B6/J mouse strain, chosen for its genetic homogeneity and phenotypic uniformity. Here, we evaluate the suitability of the white-footed deer mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) as a model organism for aging research, offering a comparative analysis against C57B6/J and diversity outbred (DO) Mus musculus strains. Our study includes comparisons of body composition, skeletal muscle function, and cardiovascular parameters, shedding light on potential applications and limitations of P. leucopus in aging studies. Notably, P. leucopus exhibits distinct body composition characteristics, emphasizing reduced muscle force exertion and a unique metabolism, particularly in fat mass. Cardiovascular assessments showed changes in arterial stiffness, challenging conventional assumptions and highlighting the need for a nuanced interpretation of aging-related phenotypes. Our study also highlights inherent challenges associated with maintaining and phenotyping P. leucopus cohorts. Behavioral considerations, including anxiety-induced responses during handling and phenotyping assessment, pose obstacles in acquiring meaningful data. Moreover, the unique anatomy of P. leucopus necessitates careful adaptation of protocols designed for Mus musculus. While showcasing potential benefits, further extensive analyses across broader age ranges and larger cohorts are necessary to establish the reliability of P. leucopus as a robust and translatable model for aging studies.

Project description:Using the highly sensitive miRNA microarray, we screened 107 up-regulated microRNAs and 33 down-regulated microRNAs in the INT-HA-induced M2-like macrophages and we explored the functions of these miRNAs in macrophage polarization. The enrichment results indicated that these miRNAs might participate in the process of macrophage polarization. Furthermore, the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction results showed that miR-935 may play an important role in M2 macrophage polarization which was activated by INT-HA.

Project description:BackgroundCopy number variation is an important dimension of genetic diversity and has implications in development and disease. As an important model organism, the mouse is a prime candidate for copy number variant (CNV) characterization, but this has yet to be completed for a large sample size. Here we report CNV analysis of publicly available, high-density microarray data files for 351 mouse tail samples, including 290 mice that had not been characterized for CNVs previously.ResultsWe found 9634 putative autosomal CNVs across the samples affecting 6.87% of the mouse reference genome. We find significant differences in the degree of CNV uniqueness (single sample occurrence) and the nature of CNV-gene overlap between wild-caught mice and classical laboratory strains. CNV-gene overlap was associated with lipid metabolism, pheromone response and olfaction compared to immunity, carbohydrate metabolism and amino-acid metabolism for wild-caught mice and classical laboratory strains, respectively. Using two subspecies of wild-caught Mus musculus, we identified putative CNVs unique to those subspecies and show this diversity is better captured by wild-derived laboratory strains than by the classical laboratory strains. A total of 9 genic copy number variable regions (CNVRs) were selected for experimental confirmation by droplet digital PCR (ddPCR).ConclusionThe analysis we present is a comprehensive, genome-wide analysis of CNVs in Mus musculus, which increases the number of known variants in the species and will accelerate the identification of novel variants in future studies.

Project description:BackgroundLong terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons make up a large fraction of the typical mammalian genome. They comprise about 8% of the human genome and approximately 10% of the mouse genome. On account of their abundance, LTR retrotransposons are believed to hold major significance for genome structure and function. Recent advances in genome sequencing of a variety of model organisms has provided an unprecedented opportunity to evaluate better the diversity of LTR retrotransposons resident in eukaryotic genomes.ResultsUsing a new data-mining program, LTR_STRUC, in conjunction with conventional techniques, we have mined the GenBank mouse (Mus musculus) database and the more complete Ensembl mouse dataset for LTR retrotransposons. We report here that the M. musculus genome contains at least 21 separate families of LTR retrotransposons; 13 of these families are described here for the first time.ConclusionsAll families of mouse LTR retrotransposons are members of the gypsy-like superfamily of retroviral-like elements. Several different families of unrelated non-autonomous elements were identified, suggesting that the evolution of non-autonomy may be a common event. High sequence similarity between several LTR retrotransposons identified in this study and those found in distantly-related species suggests that horizontal transfer has been a significant factor in the evolution of mouse LTR retrotransposons.
