Transcriptional Profiling of Stroma from Inflamed and Resting Lymph Nodes RESOURCE Transcriptional profiling of stroma from inflamed and resting lymph nodes defines immunological hallmarks Deepali Malhotra1,2,8, Anne L Fletcher1,8, Jillian Astarita1,2, Veronika Lukacs-Kornek1, Prakriti Tayalia3, Santiago F Gonzalez4, Kutlu G Elpek1, Sook Kyung Chang5, Konstantin Knoblich1, Martin E Hemler1, Michael B Brenner5,6, Michael C Carroll4, David J Mooney3, Shannon J Turley1,7 & the Immunological Genome Project Consortium9 Lymph node stromal cells (LNSCs) closely regulate immunity and self-tolerance, yet key aspects of their biology remain poorly elucidated. Here, comparative transcriptomic analyses of mouse LNSC subsets demonstrated the expression of important immune mediators, growth factors and previously unknown structural components. Pairwise analyses of ligands and cognate receptors across hematopoietic and stromal subsets suggested a complex web of crosstalk. Fibroblastic reticular cells (FRCs) showed enrichment for higher expression of genes relevant to cytokine signaling, relative to their expression in skin and thymic fibroblasts. LNSCs from inflamed lymph nodes upregulated expression of genes encoding chemokines and molecules involved in the acute-phase response and the antigen-processing and antigen-presentation machinery. Poorly studied podoplanin (gp38)-negative CD31− LNSCs showed similarities to FRCs but lacked expression of interleukin 7 (IL-7) and were identified as myofibroblastic pericytes that expressed integrin a7. Together our data comprehensively describe the transcriptional characteristics of LNSC subsets.

Signature: Anushree Date: 30th November 2014 ii ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to identify molecular markers that can determine progression of low grade glioma. This was done using various approaches such as IDH1 and IDH2 mutation analysis, MGMT methylation analysis, copy number analysis using array comparative genomic hybridisation and identification of differentially expressed miRNAs using miRNA microarray analysis. IDH1 mutation was present at a frequency of 71% in low grade glioma and was identified as an independent marker for improved OS in a multivariate analysis, which confirms the previous findings in low grade glioma studies.
