We performed paired-end RNA-seq to compare the transcriptome of DP thymocytes that ectopically express Lin28 in vivo versus untransduced (GFP-ve) DP thymocytes. Overall design: Transduced (GFP+) and untransduced (GFP-) CD4+ CD8+ CD3- thymocytes were sorted and pooled from three recipients of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells transduced with Lin28-RV six weeks post-reconstitution. Total RNA was extracted and paired-end library construction and sequencing was performed on oligo-dT purified RNA.

View SamplesLoss of function mutations in the SCN9a gene encoding voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.7 cause congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) and anosmia in otherwise normal humans and mice, suggesting that this channel may be a good analgesic drug target. Surprisingly, potent selective antagonists of Nav1.7 are weak analgesics. We therefore investigated whether Nav1.7 , as well as contributing to electrical signalling may have an additional function. Here we report that Nav1.7 deletion has profound effects on the sensory neuron transcriptome, leading to dysregulation of a number of transcription factors as well as upregulation of enkephalin precursor PENK mRNA and down regulation of CEACAM10 mRNA, a protein involved in noxious thermosensation. PENK mRNA is transcriptionally upregulated in Nav1.7 null mutant female sensory neurons, resulting in increased enkephalin expression in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. PENK expression is down-regulated by addition of the sodium ionophore monensin, suggesting that sodium may play a role as a second messenger. Application of the opioid antagonist naloxone strongly enhances noxious peripheral input into the spinal cord, and dramatically reduces analgesia in both male and female Nav1.7 null mutant mice, as well as in human Nav1.7 null mutants. These data show that loss of Nav1.7 expression increases opioid drive over the lifetime of mice and humans. They further suggest that Nav1.7 channel blockers alone may not replicate the phenotype of null mutant humans and mice, but should be potentiated with exogenous opioids.
Endogenous opioids contribute to insensitivity to pain in humans and mice lacking sodium channel Nav1.7.

View SamplesGenome-wide analysis was performed on microRNA 155+/+ and -/- Th17 cells to determine the differentially expressed transcripts that are regulated by miR-155. We found that Jarid2 was differentially expressed in absence of miR-155 and highlight the mechanism for the silencing of IL-22 by Jarid2 and PRC2 in miR-155-/- Th17 cells. Overall design: Comparison of transcriptome of Th17 cells in presence or absence of microRNA 155
miR-155 activates cytokine gene expression in Th17 cells by regulating the DNA-binding protein Jarid2 to relieve polycomb-mediated repression.
