Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
We discovered that mice with hematopoietic-specific deletion of Lsd1 lacked Gr-1+ Mac1+ neutrophilic granulocytes whereas the numbers of Gr-1dim Mac1+ granulocytic progenitor cells was increased. To determine the genes altered by Lsd1-loss, Gr-1dim Mac1+ granulocytic progenitor cells from Lsd1fl/fl and Lsd1fl/fl Mx1Cre mice were FACS-purified to be analyzed by gene expression profiling.

Description
We discovered that mice lacking Lsd1 in the erythroid lineage die in utero of a lethal anemia around embryonic day E13.5. Lsd1 knockout embryos displayed an increase in CD71_high c-Kit_high pro-erythroblasts, followed by a drastic reduction of later maturation stages. To determine the genes altered by Lsd1-loss, CD71_high c-Kit_high pro-erythroblasts from Lsd1fl/fl and Lsd1fl/fl EpoRCre mice were FACS-purified to be analyzed by gene expression profiling.

Description
Transcription cofactor Rcor1 has been linked biochemically both to neurogenesis and hematopoiesis. Here we studied the function of Rcor1 in vivo and showed it is essential to erythropoeisis during embryonic development. Rcor1 mutant proerythroblasts, unlike normal cells, can form myeloid colonies in vitro. To investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms for block of erythropoiesis and increased myeloid potential, we used RNA-seq to reveal the differentially expressed genes from erythroid progenitors due to depletion of Rcor1. Overall design: RNA were extracted from FACS sorted CD71+,TER119- erythroid progenitors from control (Rcor1+/+ and Rcor1+/-) or Mutant (Rcor1-/- ) E13.5 fetal liver. Each library was made by pooling RNA from several fetal livers. Two biological replicates were made for either control or mutant condition.

Description
iNKT cells are innate-like lymphocytes that protect against infection, autoimmune disease, and cancer. However, little is known about epigenetic regulation of iNKT cell development. Here, we show that the H3K27me3 histone demethylase UTX is an essential cell-intrinsic factor that controls an iNKT lineage specific gene expression program and epigenetic landscape in a demethylase activity dependent manner. UTX deficient iNKT cells exhibit impaired expression of iNKT signature genes due to a decrease in activation-associated H3K4me3 and an increase in repressive H3K27me3 marks within the promoters that UTX occupies. Notably, we identified JunB as a novel regulator of iNKT development that partners with UTX to establish an iNKT lineage specific gene expression program. Moreover, we demonstrate that UTX-mediated regulation of super-enhancer accessibility is a key mechanism for iNKT lineage commitment. These findings uncover how UTX regulates iNKT cell development through multiple epigenetic mechanisms.

Description
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a heterogeneous disorder with multiple etiologies. Harnessing the immune system by blocking the programmed cell death receptor (PD)-1 pathway in an amyloid beta mouse model was shown to evoke a sequence of immune responses that lead to disease modification. Here, blocking PD-L1, a PD-1 ligand, was found to have similar efficacy to that of PD-1 blocking in disease modification, in both animal models of AD and of tauopathy. Targeting PD-L1 in a tau-driven disease model resulted in increased immunomodulatory monocyte-derived macrophages within the brain parenchyma. Single cell RNA-seq revealed that the homing macrophages expressed unique scavenger molecules including macrophage scavenger receptor 1 (MSR1), which was shown here to be required for the effect of PD-L1 blockade in disease modification. Overall, our results demonstrate that immune checkpoint blockade targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway leads to modification of common factors that go awry in AD and dementia, and thus can potentially provide an immunotherapy to help combat these diseases. Overall design: Cell populations were sorted with FACSAriaIII (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA). Prior to sorting, all samples were filtered through a 40-µm nylon mesh. For the isolation of monocytes-derived macrophages, samples were gated for CD45high and CD11bhigh (Brilliant-violet-421, 1:150, 30-F11, Biolegend Inc. San Diego, CA; APC CD11b, 1:100, M1/70, eBioscience), while excluding doublets. Isolated cells were single cell sorted into 384-well cell capture plates containing 2?µL of lysis solution and barcoded poly(T) reverse-transcription (RT) primers for single-cell RNA-seq84. Four empty wells were designated in each 384-well plate as a no-cell control during data analysis. Immediately after sorting, each plate was spun down to ensure cell immersion into the lysis solution, snap frozen on dry ice, and stored at -80?°C until processing. Single-cell libraries were prepared as previously described73. In brief, mRNA from cells sorted into cell capture plates was barcoded, converted into cDNA, and pooled using an automated pipeline. The pooled sample was then linearly amplified by T7 in vitro transcription, and the resulting RNA was fragmented and converted into a sequencing-ready library by tagging the samples with pooled barcodes and Illumina sequences during ligation, RT, and PCR. Each pool of cells was tested for library quality, and concentration was assessed, as described73.

Description
To guarantee blood supply throughout adult life hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) need to carefully balance between self-renewing cell divisions and quiescence. Identification of genes controlling HSC self-renewal is of utmost importance given that HSCs are the only stem cells with broad clinical applications. Transcription factor PU.1 is one of the major regulators of myeloid and lymphoid development. Recent reports suggest that PU.1 mediates its functions via gradual expression level changes rather than binary on/off states. So far, this has not been considered in any study of HSCs and thus, PU.1s role in HSC function has remained largely unclear. Here we demonstrate using hypomorphic mice with an engineered disruption of an autoregulatory feedback loop that decreased PU.1 levels resulted in loss of key HSC functions, all of which could be fully rescued by restoration of proper PU.1 levels via a human PU.1 transgene. Mechanistically, we found excessive HSC cell divisions and altered expression of cell cycle regulators whose promoter regions were bound by PU.1 in normal HSCs. Adequate PU.1 levels were maintained by a mechanism of direct autoregulation restricted to HSCs through a physical interaction of a -14kb enhancer with the proximal promoter. Our findings identify PU.1 as novel regulator controling the switch between cell division and quiescence in order to prevent exhaustion of HSCs. Given that even moderate level changes greatly impact stem cell function, our data suggest important therapeutic implications for leukemic patients with reduced PU.1 levels. Moreover, we provide first proof, that autoregulation of a transcription factor, PU.1, has a crucial function in vivo. We anticipate that our concept of how autoregulation forms an active chromosomal conformation will impact future research on transcription factor networks regulating stem cell fate.

Description
Macrophages are hematopoietic cells critical for innate immune defense, but also control organ homeostasis in a tissue-specific manner. Tissue-resident macrophages, therefore, provide a well-defined model to study the impact of ontogeny and microenvironment on chromatin state. Here, we profile the dynamics of four histone modifications across seven tissue-resident macrophage populations, as well as monocytes and neutrophils. We identify 12,743 macrophage-specific enhancers and establish that tissue-resident macrophages have distinct enhancer landscapes. Our work suggests that a combination of tissue and lineage-specific transcription factors form the regulatory networks controlling chromatin specification in tissue-resident macrophages. The environment has the capacity to alter the chromatin landscape of macrophages derived from transplanted adult bone marrow in vivo and even differentiated macrophages are reprogramed when transferred into a new tissue. Altogether, these data provide a comprehensive view of macrophage regulation and highlight the importance of microenvironment along with pioneer factors in orchestrating macrophage identity and plasticity. Overall design: 7 tissue-resident macrophage populations were isolated, as well as monocytes and neutrophils, and transcriptome analysis was performed. Experiment was done in duplicates.

Description
Developmental neuronal remodeling is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism required for accurate wiring of mature nervous systems. Despite its fundamental role in neurodevelopment and proposed contribution to various neuropsychiatric disorders, the mechanisms instructing remodeling are only partially known. Here, we uncover the fine temporal transcriptional landscape of a stereotypic remodeling event - that of the Drosophila mushroom body ? neurons. To enrich and complement this developmental expression atlas, we also sequenced developing ? neurons perturbed for three key transcription factors known to regulate pruning. Together, these datasets allowed us to construct the developmental and temporal framework of transcriptional modules that together drive remodeling. Moreover, we identified 10 DNA binding proteins that are involved in various aspects of remodeling, and describe their hierarchical relationships. Overall, this study provides the first broad and detailed molecular insight into the complex regulatory dynamics of developmental neuronal remodeling. Overall design: Transcriptional profiling of drosophila ? neurons during development and when perturbed by EcR-DN, E75 RNAi or Sox14 RNAi. Other adult neurons and astrocyte-like cells also sequenced.
