Description
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are growth-promoting plant hormones that play a role in abiotic stress responses, but molecular modes that enable this activity remain largely unknown. Here we show that BRs participate in the regulation of freezing tolerance. BR signaling-defective mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana were hypersensitive to freezing before and after cold acclimation. The constitutive activation of BR signaling, in contrast, enhanced freezing resistance. Evidence is provided that the BR-controlled basic helixloophelix transcription factor CESTA (CES) can contribute to the constitutive expression of the C-REPEAT/DEHYDRATION-RESPONSIVE ELEMENT BINDING FACTOR (CBF) transcriptional regulators that control cold responsive (COR) gene expression. In addition, CBF-independent classes of BR-regulated COR genes are identified that are regulated in a BR- and CES-dependent manner during cold acclimation. A model is presented in which BRs govern different cold-responsive transcriptional cascades through the posttranslational modification of CES and redundantly acting factors. This contributes to the basal resistance against freezing stress, but also to the further improvement of this resistance through cold acclimation.

Description
There is great medical need for estrogens having favorable pharmacological profiles, supporting desirable activities for menopausal women such as metabolic and vascular protection but lacking stimulatory activities on the breast or uterus. Here, we report the development of structurally novel estrogens with favorable target tissue-selective estrogenic activity. Through a process of structural alteration of the hormone estradiol that preserves essential chemical and physical features of estradiol but greatly moderates its binding affinity for the estrogen receptors (ERs), we obtained Pathway Preferential Estrogens (PaPEs) capable of having interaction with ER that is sufficient to activate the extranuclear-initiated signaling pathway preferentially over the direct nuclear-initiated pathway. PaPE modulate a pattern of gene regulation and cellular and biological processes that result in essentially no stimulation of reproductive and mammary tissues and breast cancer cells, but have a favorable pattern of activity on metabolic tissues and the vasculature. The structural permutation process represents a novel approach to govern the balance in utilization of extranuclear vs. nuclear pathways of ER action to obtain tissue-selective/non-nuclear pathway-preferential estrogens, which should prove to be beneficial for postmenopausal hormone replacement. The approach may also have broad applicability for other members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. Overall design: 24 samples; inhibitor and time course experiments

Description
Identifying immune correlates of protection and mechanisms of immunity accelerates and streamlines the development of vaccines. RTS,S/AS01E, the most advanced malaria vaccine, has moderate efficacy in African children. In contrast, immunization with sporozoites under antimalarial chemoprophylaxis (CPS immunization) can provide 100% sterile protection in naïve adults. We used systems biology approaches to identify correlates of vaccine-induced immunity based on transcriptomes of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from subjects immunized with RTS,S/AS01E or chemo-attenuated sporozoites stimulated with parasite antigens in vitro. Specifically, we used samples of subjects from two age cohorts and 3 African countries participating in an RTS,S/AS01E pediatric phase 3 trial and malaria-naïve subjects participating in a CPS trial. We identified both pre-immunization and post-immunization transcriptomic signatures correlating with protection. Signatures were validated in independent children and infants from the RTS,S/AS01E phase 3 trial and subjects from an independent CPS trial with high accuracies (>70%). Transcription modules revealed interferon, NF-B, TLR, and monocyte-related signatures associated with protection. Pre-immunization signatures suggest the potential for strategies to prime the immune system before vaccination towards improving vaccine immunogenicity and efficacy. Finally, signatures of protection could be useful to determine efficacy in clinical trials, accelerating vaccine candidate testing. Nevertheless, signatures should be tested more extensively across multiple cohorts and trials to demonstrate their universal predictive capacity.
