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.

McLaughlin Professor of Neural and Behavioral Sciences Director of Graduate Program in Anatomy *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT The retina is an immune-privileged organ. Many autoimmune diseases, such as AMD, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy, are caused by excessive inflammatory responses targeting self-tissue. The physiological functions of extracellular and intracellular signaling molecules of immune responses have been well characterized. The epigenetic aspects of these molecules in the retina, however, have not been well elucidated. In this study, we examined the expression of selected immune-related genes, and their transcriptional accessibility via epigenetic mapping, cluster analysis, and RT-PCR. Among these genes, interleukin receptor related genes and intracellular signaling molecules exhibit higher transcriptional accessibility. Epigenetic mapping of the toll-like receptor (TLR) family revealed that 3 out of 13 TLRs exhibit H3K4me2 accumulation during retina development, suggesting that TLR2, TLR3, and TLR9 are the only TLR members expressed in the retina. Most of the NF-κB signaling molecules exhibited transcriptional accessibility, implying their essential roles in inflammatory regulation during retina maturation.

  • Orphan Receptor IL-17RD Tunes IL-17A Signalling and Is Required for Neutrophilia
    ARTICLE Received 11 Jul 2012 | Accepted 7 Sep 2012 | Published 9 Oct 2012 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms2127 Orphan receptor IL-17RD tunes IL-17A signalling and is required for neutrophilia Mark Mellett1, Paola Atzei1, Alan Horgan1, Emily Hams2, Thomas Floss3, Wolfgang Wurst3, Padraic G. Fallon2,4,5 & Paul N. Moynagh1 Interleukin-17A, the prototypical member of the interleukin-17 cytokine family, coordinates local tissue inflammation by recruiting neutrophils to sites of infection. Dysregulation of interleukin-17 signalling has been linked to the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases and autoimmunity. The interleukin-17 receptor family members (A–E) have a broad range of functional effects in immune signalling yet no known role has been described for the remaining orphan receptor, interleukin-17 receptor D, in regulating interleukin-17A-induced signalling pathways. Here we demonstrate that interleukin-17 receptor D can differentially regulate the various pathways employed by interleukin-17A. Neutrophil recruitment, in response to in vivo administration of interleukin-17A, is abolished in interleukin-17 receptor D-deficient mice, correlating with reduced interleukin-17A-induced activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and expression of the neutrophil chemokine MIP-2. In contrast, interleukin-17 receptor D deficiency results in enhanced interleukin-17A-induced activation of nuclear factor-kappa B and interleukin-6 and keratinocyte chemoattractant expression. Interleukin-17 receptor D disrupts the interaction of Act1 and TRAF6 causing differential regulation of nuclear factor- kappa B and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signalling pathways. 1 Department of Biology, Institute of Immunology, National University of Ireland Maynooth, Maynooth, Ireland. 2 Institute of Molecular Medicine, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin 8, Ireland.

Taguchi Received: 21 November 2016; Accepted: 23 January 2017; Published: 28 January 2017 Abstract: Alteration of miRNAs and dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) underlies vascular inflammation. PUFAs are known to be incorporated into the cell membrane of monocytes/macrophages or endothelial cells, the major cellular players of vascular diseases, thereby affecting cellular signal transduction. Nevertheless, there are no investigations concerning the PUFA impact on miRNA expression by these cells. With regard to the key role miRNAs play for overall cellular functionality, this study aims to elucidate whether PUFAs affect miRNA expression profiles. To this end, the monocyte/macrophage cell line RAW264.7 and the endothelial cell line TIME were enriched with either docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; n3-PUFA) or arachidonic acid (AA; n6-PUFA) until reaching a stable incorporation into the plasma membrane and, at least in part, exposed to an inflammatory milieu. Expressed miRNAs were determined by deep sequencing, and compared to unsupplemented/unstimulated controls. Data gained clearly show that PUFAs in fact modulate miRNA expression of both cell types analyzed regardless the presence/absence of an inflammatory stimulator.

  • Maternal Obesity Alters C19MC Micrornas Expression Profile In
    Jing et al. Nutrition & Metabolism (2020) 17:52 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12986-020-00475-7 RESEARCH Open Access Maternal obesity alters C19MC microRNAs expression profile in fetal umbilical cord blood Jia Jing1†, Yingjin Wang2†, Yanmei Quan1, Zhijie Wang2*, Yue Liu1* and Zhide Ding1* Abstract Background: To determine if overweight/obese pregnant women have altered microRNA expression patterns in fetal umbilical cord blood that may affect the development of offspring. Methods: Umbilical cord blood samples were obtained from the fetuses of 34 overweight/obese and 32 normal- weight women after delivery. Next generation sequencing (NGS) analyzed their miRNA expression patterns. miRanda and TargetScan databases were used to predict the miRNAs’ target genes followed by analyses of Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) to perform function grouping and pathway analyses. qRT-PCR verified the identity of differentially expressed miRNAs that were revealed in the NGS results. Results: There was a positive correlation between newborn body weight and pregestational BMI of pregnant individuals (r = 0.48, P < 0.001). One hundred and eight miRNAs were differentially expressed between the normal and overweight/obese groups, which target genes were enriched in the metabolic pathway. Five C19MC miRNAs (miR-516a-5p, miR-516b-5p, miR-520a-3p, miR-1323, miR-523-5p) were upregulated in the overweight/obese group. Target enrichment analysis suggests their involvement in post-embryonic development, lipid and glucose homeostasis, T cell differentiation and nervous system development. Conclusions: C19MC miRNA expression upregulation in the fetal circulation during the gestation of overweight/ obese pregnant women may contribute to altered multisystem metabolic pathway development in their offspring.

  • Cytokines Mapping for Tissue-Specific Expression, Eqtls and GWAS Traits
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Cytokines mapping for tissue‑specifc expression, eQTLs and GWAS traits Lyubov E. Salnikova1,2*, Maryam B. Khadzhieva1,2, Dmitry S. Kolobkov1,3,4, Alesya S. Gracheva1,2, Artem N. Kuzovlev2 & Serikbay K. Abilev1 Dysregulation in cytokine production has been linked to the pathogenesis of various immune‑ mediated traits, in which genetic variability contributes to the etiopathogenesis. GWA studies have identifed many genetic variants in or near cytokine genes, nonetheless, the translation of these fndings into knowledge of functional determinants of complex traits remains a fundamental challenge. In this study we aimed at collection, analysis and interpretation of data on cytokines focused on their tissue‑specifc expression, eQTLs and GWAS traits. Using GO annotations, we generated a list of 314 cytokines and analyzed them with the GTEx resource. Cytokines were highly tissue‑specifc, 82.3% of cytokines had Tau expression metrics ≥ 0.8. In total, 3077 associations for 1760 unique SNPs in or near 244 cytokines were mapped in the NHGRI‑EBI GWAS Catalog. According to the Experimental Factor Ontology resource, the largest numbers of disease associations were related to ‘Infammatory disease’, ‘Immune system disease’ and ‘Asthma’. The GTEx‑based analysis revealed that among GWAS SNPs, 1142 SNPs had eQTL efects and infuenced expression levels of 999 eGenes, among them 178 cytokines. Several types of enrichment analysis showed that it was cytokines expression variability that fundamentally contributed to the molecular origins of considered immune-mediated conditions. Cytokines are regulatory proteins and glycoproteins that are synthesized and secreted by immune system cells and other cell types. Tey regulate innate and acquired immunity, embryogenesis, hematopoiesis, infammation and regeneration processes, and proliferation.
