Description
B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is often preceded by a benign monoclonal or oligoclonal CD5+ B cell lymphocytosis. We have generated transgenic mice expressing a catalytically inactive, dominant-negative recombination activating gene 1 (dnRAG1 mice) in the periphery. These animals develop an early-onset indolent CD5+ B cell lymphocytosis, caused in part by a defect in secondary V(D)J rearrangements initiated to alter autoreactive B cell receptor specificity. Hypothesizing that the CD5+ B cells accumulating in dnRAG1 mice represent a CLL precursor, we crossed dnRAG1 mice with CLL-prone E-TCL1 mice to determine whether dnRAG1 expression in E-TCL1 mice accelerates the onset of CLL-like disease. We find that CD5+ B cell expansion and CLL progression occurs more rapidly and uniformly in double-transgenic mice (DTG mice) compared to E-TCL1 mice, but with similar phenotypic and leukemogenic features. To gain insight into genes or pathways responsible for CD5+ B cell accumulation in the transgenic mice, we performed comparative gene expression profiling studies using normal and CD5+ B cells isolated from wild-type and transgenic mice at either 12 weeks of age (pre-leukemia) or at CLL onset in DTG mice (using age-matched wild-type and single-transgenic mice as controls). These analyses confirm the upregulation of tolerogenic genes in CD5+ B cells and reveal a possible role for prolactin signaling in the regulation of receptor editing. This study suggests that a failure to remodel B cell antigen receptor genes in response to autoreactivity may promote the benign accumulation of CD5+ B cells, which may then be subjected to secondary genetic lesions that promote CLL progression.

Description
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short non-coding RNA that play important roles in disease processes in animals and are present in a highly stable cell-free form in body fluids. Here we examine the capacity of host and parasite miRNAs to serve as tissue or serum biomarkers of Schistosoma mansoni infection. Sequencing of small RNAs from serum confirmed the presence of miRNAs and revealed 11 parasite-derived miRNAs that were detectable by 8 weeks post S.mansoni infection. Overall design: Small RNA content in serum of naïve and Schistosoma mansoni infected mice were examined in two different librarys. 1- prepared according to the 290 Illumina small RNA Sample Preparation Kit version 1.5 and sequenced on the GAIIX and 2- prepared according to the TruSeq Small RNA protocol (without size-selecting small 295 RNA) and sequenced on the HiSeq2

Description
Ag recognition via the TCR is necessary for the expansion of specific T cells that then contribute to adaptive immunity as effector and memory cells. Because CD4+ and CD8+ T cells differ in terms of their priming APCs and MHC ligands we compared their requirements of Ag persistence during their expansion phase side by side. Proliferation and effector differentiation of TCR transgenic and polyclonal mouse T cells were thus analyzed after transient and continuous TCR signals. Following equally strong stimulation, CD4+ T cell proliferation depended on prolonged Ag presence, whereas CD8+ T cells were able to divide and differentiate into effector cells despite discontinued Ag presentation. CD4+ T cell proliferation was neither affected by Th lineage or memory differentiation nor blocked by coinhibitory signals or missing inflammatory stimuli. Continued CD8+ T cell proliferation was truly independent of self-peptide/MHC-derived signals. The subset divergence was also illustrated by surprisingly broad transcriptional differences supporting a stronger propensity of CD8+ T cells to programmed expansion. These T cell data indicate an intrinsic difference between CD4+ and CD8+ T cells regarding the processing of TCR signals for proliferation. We also found that the presentation of a MHC class IIrestricted peptide is more efficiently prolonged by dendritic cell activation in vivo than a class I bound one. In summary, our data demonstrate that CD4+ T cells require continuous stimulation for clonal expansion, whereas CD8+ T cells can divide following a much shorter TCR signal.
