Description
The Fosb gene encodes subunits of the activator protein-1 transcription factor complex. Two mature mRNAs, Fosb and Fosb, encoding full-length FOSB and FOSB proteins respectively, are formed by alternative splicing of Fosb mRNA. Fosb products are expressed in several brain regions. Moreover, Fosb-null mice exhibit depressive-like behaviors and adult-onset spontaneous epilepsy, demonstrating important roles in neurological and psychiatric disorders. Study of Fosb products has focused almost exclusively on neurons; their function in glial cells remains to be explored. In this study, we found that microglia express equivalent levels of Fosb and Fosb mRNAs to hippocampal neurons and, using microarray analysis, we identified six microglial genes whose expression is dependent on Fosb products. Of these genes, we focused on C5ar1 and C5ar2, which encode receptors for complement C5a. In isolated Fosb-null microglia, chemotactic responsiveness toward the truncated form of C5a was significantly lower than that in wild-type cells. Fosb-null mice were significantly resistant to kainate-induced seizures compared with wild-type mice. C5ar1 mRNA levels and C5aR1 immunoreactivity were increased in wild-type hippocampus 24 hours after kainate administration; however, such induction was significantly reduced in Fosb-null hippocampus. Furthermore, microglial activation after kainate administration was significantly diminished in Fosb-null hippocampus, as shown by significant reductions in CD68 immunoreactivity, morphological change and reduced levels of Il6 and Tnf mRNAs, although no change in the number of Iba-1-positive cells was observed. These findings demonstrate that, under excitotoxicity, Fosb products contribute to a neuroinflammatory response in the hippocampus through regulation of microglial C5ar1 and C5ar2 expression.

Description
Brown adipose tissue dissipates energy through heat and functions as a defense against cold and obesity. PPAR ligands have been shown to induce the browning of white adipocytes; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show that PPAR ligands require full agonism to induce a brown fat gene program preferentially in subcutaneous white adipose. These effects require expression of PRDM16, a factor that controls the development of classical brown fat. Depletion of PRDM16 blunts the effects of the PPAR agonist rosiglitazone on the induced brown fat gene program. Conversely, PRDM16 and rosiglitazone synergistically activate the brown fat gene program in vivo. This synergy is tightly associated with an increased accumulation of PRDM16 protein, due in large measure to an increase in the half-life of the protein in agonist treated cells. Identifying compounds that stabilize PRDM16 protein may represent a novel therapeutic pathway for the treatment of obesity and diabetes.

Description
Many species undergo sexual reproduction to distribute the parental genomes and increase the genomic diversity of the progeny. Among such species, sexual dimorphism is often displayed through morphology, size, behavior, and life-span, depending on the survival and reproduction strategies of the species. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has two sexes, hermaphrodite and male, and only the hermaphrodites, which produce both oocytes and sperm, are essential for the perpetuation of the species. In this study, we found that dietary restriction, which is the most reproducible way to retard aging in many species, extends the life-span of C. elegans hermaphrodites but not that of males. Our analysis revealed that fasting induces male-enriched genes in hermaphrodites and that the sex determination pathway affects life-span regulation, even after the completion of development, and is regulated by food availability. Furthermore, fasting activates the entire X-chromosome only in hermaphrodites. Our tiling array analysis identified a fasting-inducible, X-linked non-coding RNA for which expression positively correlated with the activation level of the X-chromosome and longevity. These links between the sex determination mechanism and dietary restriction at multiple levels may give priority to the survival of hermaphrodites during food shortages in C. elegans.
