Description
During neocortical development, neurons undergo polarization, oriented migration, and layer type-specific differentiation. The transcriptional programs underlying these processes are not completely understood. Here we show that the transcription factor Bcl11a regulates polarity and migration of upper layer neurons. Bcl11a-deficient late-born neurons fail to correctly switch from multipolar to bipolar morphology resulting in impaired radial migration. We show that the expression of Sema3c is increased in migrating Bcl11a-deficient neurons and that Bcl11a is a direct negative regulator of Sema3c transcription. In vivo gain-of-function and rescue experiments demonstrate that Sema3c is a major downstream effector of Bcl11a required for the cell polarity switch and for the migration of upper layer neurons. Our data uncover a novel Bcl11a/Sema3c-dependent regulatory pathway used by migrating cortical neurons.

Description
Biallelic defects of the gene encoding for the intracellular enzyme 3’ repair exonuclease (Trex)1 cause Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS), a rare monogenic, lupus-like autoimmune disease, while heterozygous Trex1 loss of function alleles are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Trex1-/- mice develop lethal autoimmune multi-organ inflammation, which results from a chronic type I IFN response triggered by intracellular accumulation of a putative nucleic acid substrate of Trex1. This pathogenic nucleic acid is detected by the broadly, but not ubiquitously, expressed cytosolic DNA sensor cGAS, raising the question whether there are specific cell types that respond to Trex1 deficiency by production of IFN and induce autoimmunity. We generated mice with conditional knock out of the Trex1 gene and demonstrated that loss of Trex1 throughout the hematopoietic system and even selective loss in dendritic cells is sufficient to cause IFN release and autoimmunity. B cells showed no transcriptional response to Trex1 deficiency. Trex1-/- keratinocytes produced IFN but did not induce skin inflammation, whereas loss of Trex1 in cardiomyocytes triggered neither IFN response nor pathology. Trex1-deficient neurons and astrocytes did not release IFN in the CNS. In contrast, mice with selective inactivation of Trex1 in long-living CNS macrophages such as microglia locally produced IFN but did not reproduce the mild encephalitis seen in Trex1-/- mice. Collectively, individual cell types differentially respond to the loss of Trex1 and dendritic cells seem promising candidates for experiments addressing the molecular pathomechanism in Trex1 deficiency. Overall design: We sorted CD19-positive B cells from spleens of Trex1fl/fl CD19-Cre+ and Trex1fl/fl CD19-Cre- mice and isolated total RNA for library construction to perform mRNA deep sequencing.

To investigate the contribution of type-1 IFN signalling to the upregulation of IFN- stimulated genes in SAMHD1-deficient cells, we performed global gene expression analysis of SAMHD1-deficient IFNAR-/- macrophages. Overall design: Peritoneal macrophages from ten SAMHD1-deficient IFNAR-/- and six SAMHD1-deficient controls were FACS sorted. RNA was subjected to next generation mRNA sequencing.

Description
To elucidate responses of myeloid cells to SAMHD1 deficiency in the absence of exogenous viral infection, we performed global gene expression analysis of SAMHD1 deficient macrophages. Overall design: Peritoneal macrophages from nine mutants and nine controls were FACS sorted. Cells from three animals were pooled to yield three poolls per group. RNA from these pools was subjected to next generation mRNA sequencing

Description
Differences in the inherent properties of undifferentiated fat cell progenitors may contribute to the biological specificity of the abdominal subcutaneous (Sc) and visceral omental (V) fat depots. In this study, the biological characteristics of three distinct subpopulations of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASC), i.e. ASCSVF, ASCBottom and ASCCeiling isolated from Sc and V adipose tissue biopsies of non-obese subjects, were investigated. Genome-wide differential gene expression analysis followed by quantitative RT-PCR and analysis of cytokines in the ASC-derived conditioned medium were performed. By analysis of 28,869 annotated genes, 1,019 genes resulted differentially expressed between Sc-ASC and V-ASC. Within the Sc-ASC and V-ASC populations, 546 and 1,222, respectively, were the genes differentially expressed among ASCSVF, ASCBottom and ASCCeiling. A far more striking difference was found when the hierarchical clusters analysis was performed comparing each Sc-ASC with its own homologous V-ASC subset. mRNA levels of HoxA5, Tbx15, PI16, PITPNC1, FABP5, IL-6, IL-8, MCP-1, VEGF, MMP3, TFPI2, and ANXA10 were significantly different between Sc-ASC and V-ASC. Of the 27 cytokines measured, 14 (IL-2, IL-4, IL-5 IL-7, IL-9, IL-10, IL12, IL13, MIP1-, MIP1-, PDGF-, FGFbasic, GM-CSF, IP-10) were not released, whereas 13 were expressed (IL-1beta, IL-1ra, IL-15, IL-17, G-CSF, IFN, RANTES, TNF-, Eotaxin, IL-8, MCP-1, VEGF, IL-6), and of these, MCP-1, Eotaxin, IL-1ra, FGFbasic, IL-6, IL-8, G-CSF, and VEGF were significantly different among ASCSVF, ASCCeiling and ASCBottom of the two adipose tissue depots. These results demonstrate the existence of genetically and functionally heterogeneous fat-derived ASC populations, which may add to the complexity and specificity of Sc and V adipose tissue in humans.

The basic defect of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) lies within peripheral blood mononuclear cells rather than local kidney abnormalities. Previously we showed an altered gene expression in monocytes compared to B and T cells isolated from IgAN patients (Kidney Int, 2010), thus our aim here was to study this subset more closely at genome-wide level.
