Promoter Janus Kinase 3 Proximal Characterization and Analysis Of
The Journal of Immunology Characterization and Analysis of the Proximal Janus Kinase 3 Promoter1 Martin Aringer,2*† Sigrun R. Hofmann,2* David M. Frucht,* Min Chen,* Michael Centola,* Akio Morinobu,* Roberta Visconti,* Daniel L. Kastner,* Josef S. Smolen,† and John J. O’Shea3* Janus kinase 3 (Jak3) is a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase essential for signaling via cytokine receptors that comprise the common ␥-chain (␥c), i.e., the receptors for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21. Jak3 is preferentially expressed in hemopoietic cells and is up-regulated upon cell differentiation and activation. Despite the importance of Jak3 in lymphoid development and immune function, the mechanisms that govern its expression have not been defined. To gain insight into this issue, we set out to characterize the Jak3 promoter. The 5-untranslated region of the Jak3 gene is interrupted by a 3515-bp intron. Upstream of this intron and the transcription initiation site, we identified an ϳ1-kb segment that exhibited lymphoid-specific promoter activity and was responsive to TCR signals. Truncation of this fragment revealed that core promoter activity resided in a 267-bp fragment that contains putative Sp-1, AP-1, Ets, Stat, and other binding sites. Mutation of the AP-1 sites significantly diminished, whereas mutation of the Ets sites abolished, the inducibility of the promoter construct. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays showed that histone acetylation correlates with mRNA expression and that Ets-1/2 binds this region. Thus, transcription factors that bind these sites, especially Ets family members, are likely to be important regulators of Jak3 expression. -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

Transcriptome-Wide Profiling of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Transcriptome-wide Profling of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations Patients Reveal Important Long noncoding RNA molecular signatures Santhilal Subhash 2,8, Norman Kalmbach3, Florian Wegner4, Susanne Petri4, Torsten Glomb5, Oliver Dittrich-Breiholz5, Caiquan Huang1, Kiran Kumar Bali6, Wolfram S. Kunz7, Amir Samii1, Helmut Bertalanfy1, Chandrasekhar Kanduri2* & Souvik Kar1,8* Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are low-fow vascular malformations in the brain associated with recurrent hemorrhage and seizures. The current treatment of CCMs relies solely on surgical intervention. Henceforth, alternative non-invasive therapies are urgently needed to help prevent subsequent hemorrhagic episodes. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) belong to the class of non-coding RNAs and are known to regulate gene transcription and involved in chromatin remodeling via various mechanism. Despite accumulating evidence demonstrating the role of lncRNAs in cerebrovascular disorders, their identifcation in CCMs pathology remains unknown. The objective of the current study was to identify lncRNAs associated with CCMs pathogenesis using patient cohorts having 10 CCM patients and 4 controls from brain. Executing next generation sequencing, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis and identifed 1,967 lncRNAs and 4,928 protein coding genes (PCGs) to be diferentially expressed in CCMs patients. Among these, we selected top 6 diferentially expressed lncRNAs each having signifcant correlative expression with more than 100 diferentially expressed PCGs. The diferential expression status of the top lncRNAs, SMIM25 and LBX2-AS1 in CCMs was further confrmed by qRT-PCR analysis. Additionally, gene set enrichment analysis of correlated PCGs revealed critical pathways related to vascular signaling and important biological processes relevant to CCMs pathophysiology. -

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes. -
