In this report, we demonstrate that the transcriptional repressor PRDM1 (also known as Blimp-1 or PRDI-BF1) is a critical negative regulator of NK function. Three distinct PRDM1 isoforms are selectively induced in the CD56dim NK population in response to activation. PRDM1 coordinately suppresses the release of IFN-g, TNF-a, and TNF-b through direct binding to multiple conserved regulatory regions. Ablation of PRDM1 expression leads to enhanced production of IFN-g and Downloaded from TNF-a but does not alter cytotoxicity, whereas overexpression blocks cytokine production. PRDM1 response elements are defined at the IFNG and TNF loci. Collectively, these data demonstrate a key role for PRDM1 in the negative regulation of NK activation and position PRDM1 as a common regulator of the adaptive and innate immune response.

Here we show that several surface markers, including KLRB1, KLRG1, GPR56, and KLRF1, help define low, high, or exhausted cytokine producers within human peripheral and intrahepatic CD4+ memory T-cell populations. Highest simultaneous production of TNF and IFN-γ is observed in KLRB1+KLRG1+GPR56+ CD4 T cells. By contrast, KLRF1 expression is associated with T-cell exhaustion and reduced TNF/IFN-γ production. Lastly, TCRβ repertoire analysis and in vitro differentiation support a regulated, progressive expression for these markers during CD4+ memory T-cell differentiation. Our results thus help refine the classification of human memory T cells to provide insights on inflammatory disease progression and immunotherapy development. 1 Institute of Medical Immunology, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany. 2 Berlin-Brandenburg Center for Regenerative Therapies (BCRT), Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, 13353 Berlin, Germany. 3 Milteny Biotec GmbH, 51429 Bergisch Gladbach, Germany.

  • Microglia Emerge from Erythromyeloid Precursors Via Pu.1- and Irf8-Dependent Pathways
    ART ic LE S Microglia emerge from erythromyeloid precursors via Pu.1- and Irf8-dependent pathways Katrin Kierdorf1,2, Daniel Erny1, Tobias Goldmann1, Victor Sander1, Christian Schulz3,4, Elisa Gomez Perdiguero3,4, Peter Wieghofer1,2, Annette Heinrich5, Pia Riemke6, Christoph Hölscher7,8, Dominik N Müller9, Bruno Luckow10, Thomas Brocker11, Katharina Debowski12, Günter Fritz1, Ghislain Opdenakker13, Andreas Diefenbach14, Knut Biber5,15, Mathias Heikenwalder16, Frederic Geissmann3,4, Frank Rosenbauer6 & Marco Prinz1,17 Microglia are crucial for immune responses in the brain. Although their origin from the yolk sac has been recognized for some time, their precise precursors and the transcription program that is used are not known. We found that mouse microglia were derived from primitive c-kit+ erythromyeloid precursors that were detected in the yolk sac as early as 8 d post conception. + lo − + − + These precursors developed into CD45 c-kit CX3CR1 immature (A1) cells and matured into CD45 c-kit CX3CR1 (A2) cells, as evidenced by the downregulation of CD31 and concomitant upregulation of F4/80 and macrophage colony stimulating factor receptor (MCSF-R). Proliferating A2 cells became microglia and invaded the developing brain using specific matrix metalloproteinases. Notably, microgliogenesis was not only dependent on the transcription factor Pu.1 (also known as Sfpi), but also required Irf8, which was vital for the development of the A2 population, whereas Myb, Id2, Batf3 and Klf4 were not required. Our data provide cellular and molecular insights into the origin and development of microglia. Microglia are the tissue macrophages of the brain and scavenge dying have the ability to give rise to microglia and macrophages in vitro cells, pathogens and molecules using pattern recognition receptors and in vivo under defined conditions.

  • Molecular Mechanism of ACAD9 in Mitochondrial Respiratory Complex 1 Assembly

Molecular mechanism of ACAD9 in mitochondrial respiratory complex 1 assembly Chuanwu Xia1, Baoying Lou1, Zhuji Fu1, Al-Walid Mohsen2, Jerry Vockley2, and Jung-Ja P. Kim1 1Department of Biochemistry, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 53226, USA 2Department of Pediatrics, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC, Pittsburgh, PA 15224, USA Abstract ACAD9 belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family, which catalyzes the α-β dehydrogenation of fatty acyl-CoA thioesters. Thus, it is involved in fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO). However, it is now known that the primary function of ACAD9 is as an essential chaperone for mitochondrial respiratory complex 1 assembly. ACAD9 interacts with ECSIT and NDUFAF1, forming the mitochondrial complex 1 assembly (MCIA) complex. Although the role of MCIA in the complex 1 assembly pathway is well studied, little is known about the molecular mechanism of the interactions among these three assembly factors. Our current studies reveal that when ECSIT interacts with ACAD9, the flavoenzyme loses the FAD cofactor and consequently loses its FAO activity, demonstrating that the two roles of ACAD9 are not compatible. ACAD9 binds to the carboxy-terminal half (C-ECSIT), and NDUFAF1 binds to the amino-terminal half of ECSIT. Although the binary complex of ACAD9 with ECSIT or with C-ECSIT is unstable and aggregates easily, the ternary complex of ACAD9-ECSIT-NDUFAF1 (i.e., the MCIA complex) is soluble and extremely stable.

Liu, Ph.D. University of Connecticut, 2019 ABSTRACT X-linked imprinted genes have been hypothesized to contribute parent-of-origin influences on social cognition. A cluster of imprinted genes Xlr3b, Xlr4b, and Xlr4c, implicated in cognitive defects, are maternally expressed and paternally silent in the murine brain. These genes defy classic mechanisms of autosomal imprinting, suggesting a novel method of imprinted gene regulation. Using Xlr3b and Xlr4c as bait, this study uses 4C-Seq on neonatal whole brain of a 39,XO mouse model, to provide the first in-depth analysis of chromatin dynamics surrounding an imprinted locus on the X-chromosome. Significant differences in long-range contacts exist be- tween XM and XP monosomic samples. In addition, XM interaction profiles contact a greater number of genes linked to cognitive impairment, abnormality of the nervous system, and abnormality of higher mental function. This is not a pattern that is unique to the imprinted Xlr3/4 locus. Additional Alicia J. Liu - University of Connecticut - 2019 4C-Seq experiments show that other genes on the X-chromosome, implicated in intellectual disability and/or ASD, also produce more maternal contacts to other X-linked genes linked to cognitive impairment.

One of the most abundant is eIF4A, which is required during the initiation phase of protein synthesis to unwind regions of highly structured mRNA that would otherwise impede the scanning ribosome. Dysregulation of protein synthesis is associated with tumorigenesis, but little is known about the detailed relationships between RNA helicase function and the malignant phenotype in solid malignancies. Therefore, immunohistochemical analysis was performed on over 3000 breast tumors to investigate the relationship among expression of eIF4A1, the helicase-modulating proteins eIF4B, eIF4E and PDCD4, and clinical outcome. We found eIF4A1, eIF4B and eIF4E to be independent predictors of poor outcome in ER-negative disease, while in contrast, the eIF4A1 inhibitor PDCD4 was related to improved outcome in ER-positive breast cancer. Consistent with these data, modulation of eIF4A1, eIF4B and PCDC4 expression in cultured MCF7 cells all restricted breast cancer cell growth and cycling. The eIF4A1-dependent translatome of MCF7 cells was defined by polysome profiling, and was shown to be highly enriched for several classes of oncogenic genes, including G-protein constituents, cyclins and protein kinases, and for mRNAs with G/C-rich 5′UTRs with potential to form G-quadruplexes and with 3′UTRs containing microRNA target sites.

Here, we analyzed bona fide human primordial germ cells (hPGCs) to probe the developmental genetics of human germ cell specification and differentiation. We examined distribution of OCT4 occupancy in hPGCs relative to human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). We demonstrate that development, from pluripotent stem cells to germ cells, is driven by switching partners with OCT4 from SOX2 to PAX5 and PRDM1. Gain- and loss-of-function studies revealed that PAX5 encodes a critical regulator of hPGC development. Moreover, analysis of epistasis indicates that PAX5 acts upstream of OCT4 and PRDM1. The PAX5-OCT4-PRDM1 proteins form a core transcriptional network that activates germline and represses somatic programs during human germ cell differentiation.
