We examined effects of early life stress (ELS) and environmental enrichment (EE) during development on BACHD rat striatal gene expression using RNA sequencing Overall design: We used a 2×3 factorial design with two genotypes (wildtype, WT; transgene, TG) and three environmental conditions (standard environment, SE; enriched environment, EE; early life stress, ELS) to assess effects of environmental enrichment and early life stress on striatal gene expression of 2-month-old WT and BACHD rats

Description
PIWI proteins and their bound piRNAs form the core of a gonad specific small RNA silencing pathway in animals that protects the genome against the deleterious activity of transposable elements. Recent studies linked the piRNA pathway to TUDOR biology, where TUDOR domains of various proteins recognize and bind symmetrically methylated Arginine residues in PIWI proteins. We systematically analyzed the Drosophila TUDOR protein family and identified three previously not characterized TUDOR domain-containing genes (CG4771, CG14303 and CG11133) as essential piRNA pathway members. We characterized CG4771 (Avocado) in detail and demonstrate a critical role for this protein during primary piRNA biogenesis in somatic and germline cells of the ovary. Avocado physically and/or genetically interacts with the primary pathway components Piwi, Armitage, Yb and Zucchini. Avocado also interacts with the Tdrd12 orthologs CG11133 and CG31755, which are essential for primary piRNA biogenesis in the germline and probably functionally replace the related and soma specific factor Yb. Overall design: small RNA libraries were prepared from total RNA isolation of 8 different genotypes

Description
Host defense by the innate immune system requires the establishment of antimicrobial states allowing cells to cope with microorganisms before the onset of the adaptive immune response. Interferons (IFN) are of vital importance in the establishment of cell-autonomous antimicrobial immunity. Speed is therefore an important attribute of the cellular response to IFN. With much of the antimicrobial response being installed de novo, this pertains foremost to gene expression, the rapid switch between resting-state and active-state transcription of host defense genes. Our results show how mRNA expression changes upon IFNb or IFNg treatment in wild typ and Irf9-/- bone marrow derived macrophages. Overall design: Methods: Bone marrow derived macrophage mRNA of wild-type (WT) and Irf9 knock out mice (IRF9-/-) untreated, as well as 2h IFNb and IFNg treated were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina sequencing.

Description
The non-coding Xist RNA triggers silencing of one of the two female X chromosomes during X inactivation in mammals. Gene silencing by Xist is restricted to special developmental contexts found in cells of the early embryo and specific hematopoietic precursors. The absence of critical silencing factors might explain why Xist cannot silence outside these contexts. Here, we show that Xist can also initiate silencing in a lymphoma model. Using the tumor context we identify the special AT rich binding protein SATB1 as an essential silencing factor. We show that loss of SATB1 in tumor cells abrogates the silencing function of Xist. In normal female lymphocytes Xist localizes along SATB1 filaments and, importantly, forced Xist expression can relocalize SATB1 into the Xist cluster. This reciprocal influence on localization suggests a molecular interaction between Xist and SATB1. SATB1 and its close homologue SATB2 are expressed during the initiation window for X inactivation in embryonic stem cells and are recruited to surround the Xist cluster. Furthermore, ectopic expression SATB1 or SATB2 enables gene silencing by Xist in embryonic fibroblasts, which normally do not provide an initiation context. Thus, SATB1 functions as a crucial initiation factor and may act to organize genes for silencing by Xist during the initiation of X inactivation.

Description
Drosophila neuroblasts have emerged as a model for stem cell biology that is ideal for genetic analysis but is limited by the lack of cell-type specific gene expression data. Here, we describe a methodology to isolate large numbers of pure neuroblasts and differentiating neurons that retain both cell cycle and lineage characteristics. We determine transcriptional profiles by mRNA sequencing and identify 28 predicted neuroblast specific transcription factors, which can be arranged in a network containing hubs for Notch signaling, growth control and chromatin regulation. Overexpression and RNAi for these factors identify Klumpfuss as a regulator of self-renewal. We show that loss of Klu function causes premature differentiation while overexpression results in the formation of transplantable brain tumors. Our data represent a valuable resource for Drosophila developmental neurobiology and we describes methodology that can be applied to other invertebrate stem cell lineages as well. Overall design: comparison of transcriptomes of Drosophila melanogaster larval neuroblasts and their differentiated daughter cells (neurons)
