Supplementary Figure 1: Specificity of Anti-TIGIT Antibody 1G9. TIGIT-Specific Antibodies Were Generated in TIGIT-/- Mice (Clone 1G9) Supplementary Figure 1: Specificity of anti-TIGIT antibody 1G9. TIGIT-specific antibodies were generated in TIGIT-/- mice (clone 1G9). (A) 1G9 was titrated in an ELISA against recombinant mouse TIGIT or a control protein. (B) Anti-TIGIT antibody 1G9 was used to stain P815 cells transfected with mouse TIGIT (solid line) or the parental untransfected cell line as control (shaded histogram) and samples were analyzed by flow cytometry. (C) Primary T cells from B6 or TIGIT-/- mice were activated for 48h and stained using anti-TIGIT antibody 1G9 (solid line) or an isotype control (shaded histogram) and analyzed by flow cytometry. Samples are gated on the CD4+ population. Representative examples of 5 (A) or over 10 (B and C) independent experiments are shown. Supplementary Figure 2: TIGIT acts on APCs and on T cells. (A) CD4+ T cells were isolated and labeled with CFSE. Wild type B6 or TIGIT-/- CD4+ T cells were stimulated with anti-CD3 in the presence of irradiated APCs from wild type B6 or TIGIT-/- mice. Proliferation was analyzed after 60h using flow cytometry. (B) CD45.1 B6 recipients received 105 CD62L+CD4+ 2D2 or 2D2 x TIGIT-/- cells i.v. one day before s.c. immunization with 100μg MOG35-55 peptide in CFA. On day 7 spleens and lymph nodes (LN) were harvested and frequencies and absolute numbers of transferred CD45.2+ T cells were determined by flow cytometry (B; n=4). (C-E) TIGIT-specific antibodies were generated in Armenian hamsters (clone 4D4). (C) 4D4 was titrated in an ELISA against recombinant mouse TIGIT or a control protein. (D) P815 cells transfected with mouse TIGIT (solid line) or the parental cell line (shaded histogram) were stained with anti- TIGIT antibodies and analyzed by flow cytometry. (E) Primary T cells from B6 or TIGIT-/- mice were activated for 48h and stained with anti-TIGIT antibody 4D4 (solid line) or isotype control (shaded histogram) and analyzed by flow cytometry (gated on CD4+ cells). Supplementary Figure 3: TCR activation and survival pathways are differentially activated upon TIGIT engagement. Expression values of all analyzed genes (A) or genes contained in the TCR activation (B) and T cell survival (C) gene sets are displayed. Normalized log2 expression values in wild type CD4+ T cells treated with agonistic anti- TIGIT (B6 4D4) are plotted against the mean of the isotype and TIGIT-/- controls (controls). Plots were produced in the statistical environment R (http://www.r- project.org/). Molecules driving the association are marked in red and their names are given. Overall, the T cell survival gene set shows higher expression in the B6 4D4 sample (most genes are on the right side of the diagonal), while the T cell activation molecules are expressed to a higher extent in the control samples (more genes on the left side of the diagonal line). Supplementary Figure 4: Signaling pathways downstream of TIGIT. (A and B) Expression of genes involved in the TCR activation (A) and T cell survival (B) were differentially expressed in wild type CD4+ T cells stimulated with agonistic anti-TIGIT antibody compared to the controls (isotype and TIGIT-/- controls). Molecules are represented as nodes (see legend for different shapes), and the biological relationships between different nodes are indicated. The node color indicates if a gene is up- (green) or down- (red) regulated (p-value smaller or equal to 0.1, and fold change greater or equal to 2 1.2, or smaller or equal to 0.8 was regarded as significant). Complexes formed by molecules that were both up- and down-regulated are shaded in red and green. White nodes represent molecules that are not part of the data set. Figures generated within Ingenuity. (C and D) CD4+ T cells were sorted from B6 and TIGIT-/- mice and stimulated with plate-bound anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 plus 4D4 or isotype control Ab. After 24h RNA was isolated and expression of genes involved in TCR activation (C) or T cell survival (D) was assessed by quantitative RT-PCR (triplicate wells, one of three experiments). 3 100 100 100 80 80 80 60 60 60 % of Max % of Max % of Max 40 40 40 20 20 20 0 0 0 100 101 102 103 104 100 101 102 103 104 100 101 102 103 104 ! 100 40! 80! 30! 60! 20! 40! 10! 20! 0! 0! ! 3! 4! 5! ! 3! 4! 5! 2 0!102! 10! 10! 10! 0!10! 10! 10! 10! 800 600 600 400 400 # Cells 200 200 0 0 100 101 102 103 104 100 101 102 103 104 FL1-H: CFSE 1000 800 800 600 600 # Cells # Cells 400 400 200 200 0 0 100 101 102 103 104 100 101 102 103 104 100 100 100 100 100 " 80 80 80 80 80 60 60 60 60 60 % of Max % of Max 40 40 % of Max % of Max % of Max 40 40 40 20 20 20 20 20 0 0 0102 103 104 105 0102 103 104 105 0 0 0 0 1 2 3 4 100 101 102 103 104 10 10 10 10 10 100 101 102 103 104 FL2-H FL2-H FL2-H !

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.

Abstract Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease primarily affecting motor neurons (MNs) to cause progressive paralysis. Ninety percent of cases are sporadic (sALS) and ten percent are familial (fALS). The molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration remain elusive and there is a lack of promising biomarkers that define ALS phenotypes and progression. To date, most expression studies have focused on either complex whole tissues that contain cells other than MNs or induced pluripotent derived MNs (iMNs).

Employing a sensitive array-based bioassay where patient plasma is used to induce transcriptional responses in healthy leukocytes, we previously reported disease-specific, partially IL-1 dependent, signatures associated with pre and recent onset (RO) T1D relative to unrelated healthy controls (uHC).

  • Control of Lineage Commitment in Acute Leukaemia
    NEWCASTLE UNIVERSITY Control of Lineage Commitment in Acute Leukaemia Ricky Fong Tirtakusuma Northern Institute for Cancer Research Faculty of Medical Sciences Doctor of Philosophy September 2018 Abstract Acute leukaemia with the t(4;11) translocation is strongly associated with pro B-acute lymphoblastic phenotype. Here is described a lineage switch from acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) which carries identical t(4;11) breakpoints that provides insight into regulation of lineage commitment and the haematopoietic origin of leukaemia. Stable DNA microsatellite sequences argue against a therapy-related AML. Genome sequencing and RNAseq identified 12 novel and deleterious mutations unique to the AML. Immunoglobulin rearrangement analysis suggested the common cell of origin lied within a population prior to B cell differentiation. Sorting of haematopoietic stem/progenitor cell populations followed by multiplex PCR and next generation sequencing for the fusion and secondary mutations demonstrated the occurrence of the leukaemogenic MLL-AF4 fusion gene in cell populations as early as the multipotent progenitor, MPP, population in both ALL and AML. In this most primitive population, the AML carries mutations in chromatin modulating genes CHD4 and PHF3, suggesting their importance in lineage commitment. Knockdown CHD4 and PHF3 individually and in combination in the pro-B ALL t(4;11) SEM cell line resulted in ~3 fold higher expression of the myeloid cell surface marker CD33. Further analysis was performed using a recently described model of MLL-AF4 leukaemogenesis consisting of CD34+ cord blood cells transduced with a chimeric MLL-Af4 fusion gene. Knockdown of CHD4 and PHF3 resulted in loss of lymphoid differentiation potential in vitro.

    Supplemental Information SI Methods Animal studies Heterozygote mice (B6;129.Cg-Gt(ROSA)26Sor tm20(CAG-Ctgf-GFP)Jsd) were crossed with female Foxd1Cre/+ heterozygote mice 1, and experimental mice were selected as Foxd1Cre/+; Rs26CIG/+. In some studies Coll-GFPTg or TCF/Lef:H2B-GFPTg mice or Foxd1Cre/+; Rs26tdTomatoR/+ mice were used as described 2; 3. Left kidneys were subjected to ureteral obstruction using a posterior surgical approach as described 2. In some experiments recombinant mouse DKK1 (0.5mg/kg) or an equal volume of vehicle was administered by daily IP injection. In the in vivo ASO experiment, either specific Lrp6 (TACCTCAATGCGATTT) or scrambled negative control ASO (AACACGTCTATACGC) (30mg/kg) (Exiqon, LNA gapmers) was administered by IP injection on d-1, d1, d4, and d7. In other experiments anti-CTGF domain-IV antibodies (5mg/kg) or control IgG were administered d-1, d1 and d6. All animal experiments were performed under approved IACUC protocols held at the University of Washington and Biogen. Recombinant protein and antibody generation and characterization Human CTGF domain I (sequence Met1 CPDEPAPRCPAGVSLVLDGCGCCRVCAKQLGELCTERDPCDPHKGLFC), domain I+II (sequence Met1CPDEPAPRCPAGVSLVLDGCGCCRVCAKQLGELCTERDPCDPHKGLFCCIFGGT VYRSGESFQSSCKYQCTCLDGAVGCMPLCSMDVRLPSPDCPFPRRVKLPGKCCEE) were cloned and expressed in 293 cells, and purified by Chelating SFF(Ni) Column, tested for single band by SEC and PAGE, and tested for absence of contamination. Domain-IV (sequence GKKCIRTPKISKPIKFELSGCTSMKTYRAKFCGVCTDGRCCTPHRTTTLPVEFKCPDGE VMKKNMMFIKTCACHYNCPGDNDIFESLYYRKMY) was purchased from Peprotech. Mouse or human DKK1 was generated from the coding sequence with some modifications and a tag. Secreted protein was harvested from 293 cells, and purified by nickel column, and tested for activity in a supertopflash (STF) assay 4. DKK1 showed EC50 of 0.69nM for WNT3a-induced WNT signaling in STF cells.
