Description
The transcriptional regulator Rbpj is involved in T-helper (TH) subset polarization, but its function in Treg cells remains unclear. Here we show that Treg-specific Rbpj deletion leads to splenomegaly and lymphadenopathy despite increased numbers of Treg cells with a polyclonal TCR repertoire. A specific defect of Rbpj-deficient Treg cells in controlling TH2 polarization and B cell responses is observed, leading to the spontaneous formation of germinal centers and a TH2-associated immunoglobulin class switch. The observed phenotype is environment-dependent and can be induced by infection with parasitic nematodes. Rbpj-deficient Treg cells adopt open chromatin landscapes and gene expression profiles reminiscent of tissue-derived TH2-polarized Treg cells, with a prevailing footprint of the transcription factor Gata-3. Taken together, our study suggest that Treg cells require Rbpj to specifically restrain TH2 responses, including their own excessive TH2-like differentiation potential. Overall design: We isolated Treg cells from spleens of affected Treg Rbpj-deficient animals and wildtype counterparts. Total RNA was isolated and subjected to gene expression analysis using RNA sequencing

Description
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) are the major source of type I and type III interferons (IFN-I/III) during viral infections, in response to triggering of endosomal Toll Like Receptors (TLRs) 7 or 9 by viral single-stranded RNA or unmethylated CpG DNA, respectively. Interestingly, this function is restricted to a minor fraction of pDC (Zucchini et al. Int. Immunol. 2008). In this project, we aimed at identifying the molecular pathways involved in inducing IFN-I/III production in this minor faction of pDC during in vivo infection by the mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV). To achive this goal, we infected with MCMV Ifnb1Eyfp mice, in which IFN-producing pDC can be detected by YFP expression (Scheu et al. PNAS 2008). Thanks to this model, we were able to sort three distinct subsets of pDC: CD86-YFP- (not activated, non IFN-producing), CD86+YFP- (activated, non IFN-producing) and CD86+YFP+ (activated, IFN-producing) and to perform microarray analysis. This allowed us to select genes differentially expressed among these three subsets and to mine these data in order to identify the related signaling pathways.

Description
Maternal Blood histamine levels are tightly controlled in normal pregnancy. However, in specific complications of human pregnancy such as pre-eclampsia the levels of both placental and maternal blood histamine increase. Increasing blood histamine levels nonetheless, have been associated with oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, abnormal tissue growth, and Th1/TH2 imbalance, which are also linked to pre-eclampsia. Little is known of the molecular responses in the placenta to the prolonged exposure to increasing histamine levels in the presence of changing oxygen concentrations.

Description
The human nuclear poly(A)-binding protein PABPN1 has been implicated in the decay of nuclear noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). In addition, PABPN1 stimulates hyperadenylation by poly(A) polymerase, and this activity is thought to be required for decay. Here, we inactivated hyperadenylation by two distinct mechanisms and examined changes in gene expression in HEK293 cells by RNAseq. We observed the upregulation of various ncRNAs, including snoRNA host genes, primary miRNA transcripts, and upstream antisense RNAs, confirming that hyperadenylation is broadly required for the degradation of PABPN1-targets. In addition, we found that mRNAs with retained introns are susceptible to PABPN1 and PAPa/?-mediated decay (PPD). Transcripts are targeted for degradation due to inefficient export, which is a consequence of reduced intron number or incomplete splicing. We conclude that PPD is an important mammalian nuclear RNA decay pathway for the removal of poorly spliced and nuclear-retained transcripts. Overall design: Poly(A)+ RNA from HEK293 cells was analyzed by next generation sequencing following depletion of PAPa and PAP? or expression of a dominant negative allele of PABPN1 (LALA) designed to inhibit polyadenylation. For each condition, we collected both total RNA and a nuclear-enriched sample. Each sample was collected in duplicate.

Description
Identification of all genes expressed by mouse olfactory sensory neurons; genes expressed in mature neurons, immature neurons, or both were distinguished. Independent validation of enrichment ratio values supported by statistical assessment of error rates was used to build a database of statistical probabilities of the expression of all mRNAs detected in mature neurons, immature neurons, both types of neurons (shared), and the residual population of all other cell types.
