The Journal of Immunology Molecular Profile of Tumor-Specific CD8+ T Cell Hypofunction in a Transplantable Murine Cancer Model Katherine A. Waugh,* Sonia M. Leach,† Brandon L. Moore,* Tullia C. Bruno,* Jonathan D. Buhrman,* and Jill E. Slansky* Mechanisms of self-tolerance often result in CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) with a hypofunctional phenotype incapable of tumor clearance. Using a transplantable colon carcinoma model, we found that CD8+ T cells became tolerized in <24 h in an established tumor environment. To define the collective impact of pathways suppressing TIL function, we compared genome-wide mRNA expression of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells from the tumor and periphery. Notably, gene expression induced during TIL hypofunction more closely resembled self-tolerance than viral exhaustion. Differential gene expression was refined to identify a core set of genes that defined hypofunctional TIL; these data comprise the first molecular profile of tumor-specific TIL that are naturally responding and represent a polyclonal repertoire. The molecular profile of TIL was further dissected to determine the Downloaded from extent of overlap and distinction between pathways that collectively restrict T cell functions. As suggested by the molecular profile of TIL, protein expression of inhibitory receptor LAG-3 was differentially regulated throughout prolonged late-G1/early-S phase of the cell cycle. Our data may accelerate efficient identification of combination therapies to boost anti-tumor function of TIL specifically against tumor cells.

Integral to this tool are the \seq2gene" and \gene2pathway" components in series that infer a quantitative pathway-level profile for each sample. The seq2gene function assigns phenotype-associated significance of genomic regions to gene-level scores, where the significance could be p-values of SNPs or point mutations, protein-binding affinity, or transcriptional expression level. The seq2gene function has the feasibility to assign non-exon regions to a range of neighboring genes besides the nearest one, thus facilitating the study of functional non-coding elements[2]. Then the gene2pathway summarizes gene-level measurements to pathway-level scores, comparing the quantity of significance for gene members within a pathway with those outside a pathway.

  • Regulation of Transcription and Regulatory Networks for Muscle Growth * * * * A
    Regulation Of Transcription And Regulatory Networks For Muscle Growth * * * * A. Reverter , N.J. Hudson , Q. Gu and B.P. Dalrymple Introduction The advent of microarray gene expression technology has provided animal scientists with an unprecedented ability to profile the transcriptional changes during skeletal muscle growth. With respect to meat quality, most of the effort has concentrated on the understanding of fat and energy metabolism (reviewed by Hausman et al . (2009)). Graugnard et al . (2009) explored the network among 31 genes associated with aspects of adipogenesis and energy metabolism in bovine skeletal muscle and in response to two distinct diets. Also, Freyssenet (2007) reviewed the roles that energy-sensing molecules and mitochondria have in the regulation of gene expression in muscle. However, other mechanisms such as cell cycle, glycolysis, extra-cellular matrix, ribosomal proteins and the immune system play a significant role in development, and this role can work in a tissue-specific manner. Hudson et al . (2009a) reported various functional modules underpinning the transcriptional regulation of bovine skeletal muscle. The authors integrated a total of six gene co-expression networks, each developed using the PCIT algorithm (Reverter and Chan (2008)), and proposed a Module-to-Regulator heuristic by which those transcription factors (TF) with the highest average absolute correlation co-expression with the genes present in each module are deemed to be the relevant regulators. However, this Module-to-Regulator approach failed to capture some well-known regulators of muscle fibre type composition, and the use of more sophisticated methods such as the differential wiring approach of Hudson et al .

Mice lacking p63 exhibit severe developmental defects such as limb truncations, abnormal skin, and absence of hair follicles, teeth, and mammary glands. Germline missense mutations of p63 have been shown to be responsible for several human developmental syndromes including SHFM, EEC and ADULT syndromes and are associated with anomalies in the development of organs of epithelial origin.

CONSERVED AND NOVEL PROPERTIES OF CLATHRIN- MEDIATED ENDOCYTOSIS IN DICTYOSTELIUM DISCOIDEUM A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of The Rockefeller University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Laura Macro June 2012 © Copyright by Laura Macro 2012 CONSERVED AND NOVEL PROPERTIES OF CLATHRIN- MEDIATED ENDOCYTOSIS IN DICTYOSTELIUM DISCOIDEUM Laura Macro, Ph.D. The Rockefeller University 2012 The protein clathrin mediates one of the major pathways of endocytosis from the extracellular milieu and plasma membrane. Clathrin functions with a network of interacting accessory proteins, one of which is the adaptor complex AP-2, to co-ordinate vesicle formation. Disruption of genes involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis causes embryonic lethality in multicellular animals suggesting that clathrin-mediated endocytosis is a fundamental cellular process. However, loss of clathrin-mediated endocytosis genes in single cell eukaryotes, such as S.cerevisiae (yeast), does not cause lethality, suggesting that clathrin may convey specific advantages for multicellularity.
