Transcriptomic Analysis of Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Transcriptomic analysis of human brain microvascular endothelial cells exposed to laminin binding protein (adhesion lipoprotein) and Streptococcus pneumoniae Irene Jiménez‑Munguía1, Zuzana Tomečková1, Evelína Mochnáčová1, Katarína Bhide1, Petra Majerová2 & Mangesh Bhide1,2* Streptococcus pneumoniae invades the CNS and triggers a strong cellular response. To date, signaling events that occur in the human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMECs), in response to pneumococci or its surface adhesins are not mapped comprehensively. We evaluated the response of hBMECs to the adhesion lipoprotein (a laminin binding protein—Lbp) or live pneumococci. Lbp is a surface adhesin recently identifed as a potential ligand, which binds to the hBMECs. Transcriptomic analysis was performed by RNA‑seq of three independent biological replicates and validated with qRT‑PCR using 11 genes. In total 350 diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identifed after infection with S. pneumoniae, whereas 443 DEGs when challenged with Lbp. Total 231 DEGs were common in both treatments. Integrative functional analysis revealed participation of DEGs in cytokine, chemokine, TNF signaling pathways and phagosome formation. Moreover, Lbp induced cell senescence and breakdown, and remodeling of ECM. This is the frst report which maps complete picture of cell signaling events in the hBMECs triggered against S. pneumoniae and Lbp. The data obtained here could contribute in a better understanding of the invasion of pneumococci across BBB and underscores role of Lbp adhesin in evoking the gene expression in neurovascular unit. Streptococcus pneumoniae (also known as pneumococcus) is a life-threatening pathogen responsible for high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide1. It can cross the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and cause meningitis, commonly known as pneumococcal meningitis, a rare but life-threatening medical emergency. -

Increased COUP-TFII Expression in Adult Hearts Induces Mitochondrial Dysfunction Resulting in Heart Failure
ARTICLE Received 9 Mar 2015 | Accepted 30 Jul 2015 | Published 10 Sep 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms9245 OPEN Increased COUP-TFII expression in adult hearts induces mitochondrial dysfunction resulting in heart failure San-Pin Wu1,2, Chung-Yang Kao1, Leiming Wang1, Chad J. Creighton3,4, Jin Yang5, Taraka R. Donti6, Romain Harmancey7, Hernan G. Vasquez7, Brett H. Graham6,8, Hugo J. Bellen6,8, Heinrich Taegtmeyer7, Ching-Pin Chang5, Ming-Jer Tsai1,8 & Sophia Y. Tsai1,8 Mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic remodelling are pivotal in the development of cardiomyopathy. Here, we show that myocardial COUP-TFII overexpression causes heart failure in mice, suggesting a causal effect of elevated COUP-TFII levels on development of dilated cardiomyopathy. COUP-TFII represses genes critical for mitochondrial electron transport chain enzyme activity, oxidative stress detoxification and mitochondrial dynamics, resulting in increased levels of reactive oxygen species and lower rates of oxygen consumption in mitochondria. COUP-TFII also suppresses the metabolic regulator PGC-1 network and decreases the expression of key glucose and lipid utilization genes, leading to a reduction in both glucose and oleate oxidation in the hearts. These data suggest that COUP- TFII affects mitochondrial function, impairs metabolic remodelling and has a key role in dilated cardiomyopathy. Last, COUP-TFII haploinsufficiency attenuates the progression of cardiac dilation and improves survival in a calcineurin transgenic mouse model, indicating that COUP-TFII may serve as a therapeutic target for the treatment of dilated cardiomyopathy. 1 Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas 77030, USA. 2 Adrienne Helis Malvin Medical Research Foundation, New Orleans, Louisiana 70130, USA. -

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. -

Transcriptional Control of Tissue-Resident Memory T Cell Generation
Transcriptional control of tissue-resident memory T cell generation Filip Cvetkovski Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Filip Cvetkovski All rights reserved ABSTRACT Transcriptional control of tissue-resident memory T cell generation Filip Cvetkovski Tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) are a non-circulating subset of memory that are maintained at sites of pathogen entry and mediate optimal protection against reinfection. Lung TRM can be generated in response to respiratory infection or vaccination, however, the molecular pathways involved in CD4+TRM establishment have not been defined. Here, we performed transcriptional profiling of influenza-specific lung CD4+TRM following influenza infection to identify pathways implicated in CD4+TRM generation and homeostasis. Lung CD4+TRM displayed a unique transcriptional profile distinct from spleen memory, including up-regulation of a gene network induced by the transcription factor IRF4, a known regulator of effector T cell differentiation. In addition, the gene expression profile of lung CD4+TRM was enriched in gene sets previously described in tissue-resident regulatory T cells. Up-regulation of immunomodulatory molecules such as CTLA-4, PD-1, and ICOS, suggested a potential regulatory role for CD4+TRM in tissues. Using loss-of-function genetic experiments in mice, we demonstrate that IRF4 is required for the generation of lung-localized pathogen-specific effector CD4+T cells during acute influenza infection. Influenza-specific IRF4−/− T cells failed to fully express CD44, and maintained high levels of CD62L compared to wild type, suggesting a defect in complete differentiation into lung-tropic effector T cells. -

Low Abundance of the Matrix Arm of Complex I in Mitochondria Predicts Longevity in Mice
ARTICLE Received 24 Jan 2014 | Accepted 9 Apr 2014 | Published 12 May 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms4837 OPEN Low abundance of the matrix arm of complex I in mitochondria predicts longevity in mice Satomi Miwa1, Howsun Jow2, Karen Baty3, Amy Johnson1, Rafal Czapiewski1, Gabriele Saretzki1, Achim Treumann3 & Thomas von Zglinicki1 Mitochondrial function is an important determinant of the ageing process; however, the mitochondrial properties that enable longevity are not well understood. Here we show that optimal assembly of mitochondrial complex I predicts longevity in mice. Using an unbiased high-coverage high-confidence approach, we demonstrate that electron transport chain proteins, especially the matrix arm subunits of complex I, are decreased in young long-living mice, which is associated with improved complex I assembly, higher complex I-linked state 3 oxygen consumption rates and decreased superoxide production, whereas the opposite is seen in old mice. Disruption of complex I assembly reduces oxidative metabolism with concomitant increase in mitochondrial superoxide production. This is rescued by knockdown of the mitochondrial chaperone, prohibitin. Disrupted complex I assembly causes premature senescence in primary cells. We propose that lower abundance of free catalytic complex I components supports complex I assembly, efficacy of substrate utilization and minimal ROS production, enabling enhanced longevity. 1 Institute for Ageing and Health, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 5PL, UK. 2 Centre for Integrated Systems Biology of Ageing and Nutrition, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 5PL, UK. 3 Newcastle University Protein and Proteome Analysis, Devonshire Building, Devonshire Terrace, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU, UK.
