Nolan,*,2 and Duncan Howie*,2 CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg) are essential for immune homeostasis and maintenance of self-tolerance. They are produced in the thymus and also generated de novo in the periphery in a TGF-b–dependent manner. Foxp3+ Treg are also required to achieve tolerance to transplanted tissues when induced by coreceptor or costimulation blockade. Using TCR-transgenic mice to avoid issues of autoimmune pathology, we show that Foxp3 expression is both necessary and sufficient for tissue tolerance by coreceptor blockade. Moreover, the known need in tolerance induction for TGF-b signaling to T cells can wholly be explained by Downloaded from its role in induction of Foxp3, as such signaling proved dispensable for the suppressive process. We analyzed the relative contribution of TGF-b and Foxp3 to the transcriptome of TGF-b–induced Treg and showed that TGF-b elicited a large set of downregulated signature genes. The number of genes uniquely modulated due to the influence of Foxp3 alone was surprisingly limited. Retroviral-mediated conditional nuclear expression of Foxp3 proved sufficient to confer transplant-suppressive potency on CD4+ T cells and was lost once nuclear Foxp3 expression was extinguished. These data support a dual role for TGF-b and Foxp3 in induced tolerance, in which TGF-b stimulates Foxp3 expression, for which sustained expression is then associated with http://www.jimmunol.org/ acquisition of tolerance.

  • ASPH-Notch Axis Guided Exosomal Delivery of Prometastatic Secretome
    Lin et al. Molecular Cancer (2019) 18:156 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12943-019-1077-0 RESEARCH Open Access ASPH-notch Axis guided Exosomal delivery of Prometastatic Secretome renders breast Cancer multi-organ metastasis Qiushi Lin1†, Xuesong Chen2†, Fanzheng Meng3†, Kosuke Ogawa4†, Min Li5, Ruipeng Song3, Shugeng Zhang3, Ziran Zhang3, Xianglu Kong3, Qinggang Xu1,6, Fuliang He1,7, Xuewei Bai8, Bei Sun8, Mien-Chie Hung9,10, Lianxin Liu3,11*, Jack Wands4* and Xiaoqun Dong12,1* Abstract Background: Aspartate β-hydroxylase (ASPH) is silent in normal adult tissues only to re-emerge during oncogenesis where its function is required for generation and maintenance of malignant phenotypes. Exosomes enable prooncogenic secretome delivering and trafficking for long-distance cell-to-cell communication. This study aims to explore molecular mechanisms underlying how ASPH network regulates designated exosomes to program development and progression of breast cancer. Methods: Stable cell lines overexpressing or knocking-out of ASPH were established using lentivirus transfection or CRISPR-CAS9 systems. Western blot, MTT, immunofluorescence, luciferase reporter, co-immunoprecipitation, 2D/3-D invasion, tube formation, mammosphere formation, immunohistochemistry and newly developed in vitro metastasis were applied. Results: Through physical interactions with Notch receptors, ligands (JAGs) and regulators (ADAM10/17), ASPH activates Notch cascade to provide raw materials (especially MMPs/ADAMs) for synthesis/release of pro-metastatic exosomes. Exosomes orchestrate EMT, 2-D/3-D invasion, stemness, angiogenesis, and premetastatic niche formation. Small molecule inhibitors (SMIs) of ASPH’s β-hydroxylase specifically/efficiently abrogated in vitro metastasis, which mimics basement membrane invasion at primary site, intravasation/extravasation (transendothelial migration), and colonization/outgrowth at distant sites.

  • 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 .

Conversely in man, deficient 12 mitophagy due to Pink1/Parkin mutations triggers iron accumulation in patient brain and limits 13 survival. We now aimed to identify murine fibroblast factors, which adapt their mRNA expression 14 to acute iron manipulation, relate to mitochondrial dysfunction and may influence survival. After 15 iron depletion, expression of the plasma membrane receptor Tfrc with its activator Ireb2, the 16 mitochondrial membrane transporter Abcb10, the heme-release factor Pgrmc1, the heme- 17 degradation enzyme Hmox1, the heme-binding cholesterol metabolizer Cyp46a1, as well as the 18 mitophagy regulators Pink1 and Parkin showed a negative correlation to iron levels. After iron 19 overload, these factors did not change expression. Conversely, a positive correlation of mRNA levels 20 with both conditions of iron availability was observed for the endosomal factors Slc11a2 and Steap2, 21 as well as for the iron-sulfur-cluster (ISC)-containing factors Ppat, Bdh2 and Nthl1.

  • 4-6 Weeks Old Female C57BL/6 Mice Obtained from Jackson Labs Were Used for Cell Isolation
    Methods Mice: 4-6 weeks old female C57BL/6 mice obtained from Jackson labs were used for cell isolation. Female Foxp3-IRES-GFP reporter mice (1), backcrossed to B6/C57 background for 10 generations, were used for the isolation of naïve CD4 and naïve CD8 cells for the RNAseq experiments. The mice were housed in pathogen-free animal facility in the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology and were used according to protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and use Committee. Preparation of cells: Subsets of thymocytes were isolated by cell sorting as previously described (2), after cell surface staining using CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD3ε (145- 2C11), CD24 (M1/69) (all from Biolegend). DP cells: CD4+CD8 int/hi; CD4 SP cells: CD4CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo; CD8 SP cells: CD8 int/hi CD4 CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo (Fig S2). Peripheral subsets were isolated after pooling spleen and lymph nodes. T cells were enriched by negative isolation using Dynabeads (Dynabeads untouched mouse T cells, 11413D, Invitrogen). After surface staining for CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD62L (MEL-14), CD25 (PC61) and CD44 (IM7), naïve CD4+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo and naïve CD8+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo were obtained by sorting (BD FACS Aria). Additionally, for the RNAseq experiments, CD4 and CD8 naïve cells were isolated by sorting T cells from the Foxp3- IRES-GFP mice: CD4+CD62LhiCD25–CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– and CD8+CD62LhiCD25– CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– (antibodies were from Biolegend). In some cases, naïve CD4 cells were cultured in vitro under Th1 or Th2 polarizing conditions (3, 4).

The and function of the cells of the immune system. Many of percentage of A2BR-expressing cells was similar in the the adenosine actions seem to be mediated by specific CD4+ or CD8+ T cell subpopulations. Interestingly surface receptors positively coupled to adenylate cyclase: activation signals delivered by either phytohemagglutinin A2A and A2B. Despite the fact that A2A receptors (A2ARs) or anti-T cell receptor/CD3 complex antibodies led to a can be easily studied due to the availability of the specific significant increase in both the percentage of cells agonist CGS21680, a pharmacological and physiological expressing the receptor and the intensity of the labeling. characterization of adenosine A2B receptors (A2BRs) in These receptors are functional since interleukin-2 lymphocytes has not been possible due to the lack of production in these cells is reduced by NECA but not by R- suitable reagents.

  • Kinetochore Kinesin CENP-E Is a Processive Bi-Directional Tracker of Dynamic Microtubule Tips
    ARTICLES Kinetochore kinesin CENP-E is a processive bi-directional tracker of dynamic microtubule tips Nikita Gudimchuk1,5, Benjamin Vitre2,5, Yumi Kim2,6, Anatoly Kiyatkin1, Don W. Cleveland2, Fazly I. Ataullakhanov3,4 and Ekaterina L. Grishchuk1,7 During vertebrate mitosis, the centromere-associated kinesin CENP-E (centromere protein E) transports misaligned chromosomes to the plus ends of spindle microtubules. Subsequently, the kinetochores that form at the centromeres establish stable associations with microtubule ends, which assemble and disassemble dynamically. Here we provide evidence that after chromosomes have congressed and bi-oriented, the CENP-E motor continues to play an active role at kinetochores, enhancing their links with dynamic microtubule ends. Using a combination of single-molecule approaches and laser trapping in vitro, we demonstrate that once reaching microtubule ends, CENP-E converts from a lateral transporter into a microtubule tip-tracker that maintains association with both assembling and disassembling microtubule tips. Computational modelling of this behaviour supports our proposal that CENP-E tip-tracks bi-directionally through a tethered motor mechanism, which relies on both the motor and tail domains of CENP-E. Our results provide a molecular framework for the contribution of CENP-E to the stability of attachments between kinetochores and dynamic microtubule ends. Accurate chromosome segregation depends on interactions between proportion of lagging chromosomes in anaphase in mouse liver microtubules and the kinetochore, a protein structure localized at cells and embryonic fibroblasts11,17. Fourth, after CENP-E-mediated each centromere1. Initially, kinetochores often attach to the walls congression, CENP-E-dependent localization of protein phosphatase of microtubules with the chromosomes then moving towards a 1 (PP1) to kinetochores is still required for stable microtubule spindle pole in a dynein-dependent manner2,3.
