Project description:The human thymus shows a transient involution along the neonatal period and starts a continuous process of decline between the 1st and 2nd years. The immune alterations associated to thymic aging in humans have been extensively investigated, but the genomic mechanisms underlying this process remain largely unknown. Here we conducted a temporal gene co-expression network analysis in the newborn and infant thymic tissue aiming to identify transcriptional modules associated to age.

Project description:The human thymus suffers a transient neonatal involution, recovers and then starts a process of decline between the 1st and 2nd years of life. Age-related morphological changes in thymus were extensively investigated, but the genomic mechanisms underlying this process remain largely unknown. Through Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) and TF-miRNA-mRNA integrative analysis we studied the transcriptome of neonate and infant thymic tissues grouped by age: 0-30 days (A); 31days-6 months (B); 7-12 months (C); 13-18 months (D); 19-31months (E). Age-related transcriptional modules, hubs and high gene significance (HGS) genes were identified, as well as TF-miRNA-hub/HGS co-expression correlations. Three transcriptional modules were correlated with A and/or E groups. Hubs were mostly related to cellular/metabolic processes; few were differentially expressed (DE) or related to T-cell development. Inversely, HGS genes in groups A and E were mostly DE. In A (neonate) one third of the hyper-expressed HGS genes were related to T-cell development, against one-twentieth in E, what may correlate with the early neonatal depletion and recovery of thymic T-cell populations. This genomic mechanism is tightly regulated by TF-miRNA-hub/HGS interactions that differentially govern cellular and molecular processes involved in the functioning of the neonate thymus and in the beginning of thymic decline.

Expression data of paired human neonatal thymus MSCs vs bone MSCs

Project description:Neonatal thymus MSCs and bone derived MSCs have differential abilities to stimulate angiogenesis and invade extracellular matrix. We utilized microarray to identify differentially expressed genes between these two types of MSCs and analyzed this information in the context of the phenotypic differences between these two cell types.

Minipuberty and Sexual Dimorphism in the Infant Human Thymus

Project description:AIRE expression in thymus is downregulated by estrogen after puberty, what probably renders women more susceptible to autoimmune disorders. Here we investigated the effects of minipuberty on male and female infant human thymic tissue in order to verify if this initial transient increase in sex hormones - along the first six months of life - could affect thymic transcriptional network regulation and AIRE expression. Gene co-expression network analysis for differentially expressed genes and miRNA-target analysis revealed sex differences in thymic tissue during minipuberty, but such sex differences were not detected in thymic tissues from donors aged 7-18 moths of age, the non-puberty group. AIRE expression was essentially the same in both sexes in minipuberty and in non-puberty groups, as assessed by genomic and immunohistochemical assays. However, AIRE-interactors networks showed several differences in all groups regarding gene-gene expression correlation. Therefore, minipuberty and genomic mechanisms interact in shaping thymic sexual dimorphism along the first six moths of life. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.
