Bud endodormancy induction response of two genotypes (Seyval a hybrid white wine grape and V. riparia, PI588259 a native north american species) was compared under long (15h) and short (13h) photoperiod. Three separate replicates (5 plants/replicate) were treated to generate paradormant (LD) and same aged endodormancy-induced (SD) buds for transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic analysis. Potted, spur-pruned two to six-year-old vines were removed from cold storage (Seyval 3-19-07; V. riparia 3/26/07) and grown under a LD (15 h) at 25/20 + 3C day/night temperatures (D/N). When vines reached 12-15 nodes (3-25-07) they were randomized into LD or SD treatments with 25/20 + 3C D/N in climate controlled greenhouses with automated photoperiod system (VRE Greenhouse Systems). Three replications (5 vines/replication) were harvested between 5/07-6/07 and then again in 5/08-6/08 for a total of six replications. All treatments are repeated at the same time every year and harvested at the same time of day each year to minimize biological noise. At 1, 3, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 42 days of LD and SD treatment, buds were harvested from nodes 3 to 12 of each separate replicate, immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen, and placed at -80C for future RNA, protein and metabolite extraction. These time points encompass early reversible phases as well as key time points during transition to irreversible endodormancy development. After photoperiod treatments and bud harvests, all pruned vines were returned to LD and monitored for bud endodormancy. The endodormant vines were identified after 28 days and moved to cold storage. The nondormant vines were allowed to grow again and induced into dormancy at a later date.

View SamplesBud endodormancy induction response of two genotypes (Seyval a hybrid white wine grape and V. riparia, PI588259 a native north american species) was compared under long and short photoperiod. Three separate replicates (5 plants/replicate) were treated in each of 2 separate years (2007 and 2008) to generate paradormant (LD) and same aged endodormancy-induced (SD) buds for transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic analysis. Potted, spur-pruned two to six-year-old vines were removed from cold storage (Seyval 3-19-07, 3/18/08; V. riparia 3/26/07, 3/24/08) and grown under a LD (15 h) at 25/20 + 3C day/night temperatures (D/N). When vines reached 12-15 nodes they were randomized into groups for differential photoperiod treatments. On 4/30/07 and 4/28/08 LD and SD (13 h) treatments were imposed with automated photoperiod system (VRE Greenhouse Systems). Temperatures were maintained at 25/20 + 3C D/N. Three replications (5 vines/replication) were harvested between 5/07-6/07 and then again in 5/08-6/08. At 1, 3, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 42 days of differential photoperiod treatment, buds were harvested from nodes 3 to 12 (from the base of the shoot) of each separate replicate, immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen, and placed at -80C for future RNA, protein and metabolite extraction. These time points encompass early reversible phases as well as key time points during transition to irreversible endodormancy development. After photoperiod treatments and bud harvests, all pruned vines were returned to LD and monitored for bud endodormancy. The endodormant vines were identified after 28 days and moved to cold storage.

View SamplesPolymorphisms in the interleukin-4 receptor chain (IL-4R) have been linked to asthma incidence and severity, but a causal relationship has remained uncertain. In particular, a glutamine to arginine substitution at position 576 (Q576R) of IL-4R has been associated with severe asthma, especially in African Americans. We show that mice carrying the Q576R polymorphism exhibited intense allergen-induced airway inflammation and remodeling. The Q576R polymorphism did not affect proximal signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 6 activation, but synergized with STAT6 in a gene target and tissue-specific manner to mediate heightened expression of a subset of IL-4 and IL-13responsive genes involved in allergic inflammation. Our findings indicate that the Q576R polymorphism directly promotes asthma in carrier populations by selectively augmenting IL-4Rdependent signaling.

View SamplesCo-stimulatory molecules of the CD28 family on T lymphocytes integrate cues from innate immune system sensors, and modulate activation responses in conventional CD4+ T cells (Tconv) and their FoxP3+ regulatory counterparts (Treg). To better understand how costimulatory and co-inhibitory signals might be integrated, we profiled the changes in gene expression elicited in the hours and days after engagement of Treg and Tconv by anti-CD3 and either anti-CD28, -CTLA4, -ICOS, -PD1, -BTLA or -CD80.

View SamplesWe report transcriptional characterization of skeletal muscle macrophage subsets in normal and injured muscle after intramuscular injection with cardiotoxin. We profiled transcriptional differences in macrophage subsets from mice depleted of Treg cells using Foxp3-DTR mice. We uncovered an IFN-g-centered regulatory loop, in which Treg cells inhibit NK and T cells to control macrophage accumulation and phenotype during muscle regeneration.

View SamplesThis study was performed to understand what controls the aggressivity of the pancreatic infiltrate during type-I diabetes development. We used the BDC2.5 transgenic mouse model. Samples were obtained at the age of onset of insultis. Depending on their genetic background, mice transgenic for the BDC2.5 T cell receptor present very different forms of insulitis. The NOD genetic background leads to a benign insulitis whereas the C57Bl/6-H2g7/g7 leads to an aggressive insulitis. We first studied how antigen-specific T cells are affected by these differences by obtaining the transcriptional profiles of BDC2.5 T cells from pancreas and pancreatic lymph nodes. We also compared the gene expression profiles of the entire leukocyte population present in the pancreatic lesion.
