Illumina MouseWG-6 v2.0 expression beadchip
Description
Epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs) were derived from the epiblast or the ectoderm (epi/ect) of pre-gastrula stage to late-bud stage mouse embryos. To identify if the EpiSCs retain any original stage specific characteristics or which developmental stage of epi/ect they most closely related to, we performed microarray analysis to compare the gene expression profile of multiple EpiSC lines with that of epi/ect of 7 different stages.
Publication Title
The transcriptional and functional properties of mouse epiblast stem cells resemble the anterior primitive streak.

Description
Chlamydia trachomatis serovariants are responsible for either Trachoma, the leading cause of infectious blindness or sexually transmitted disease, wherein the endocervix is the most frequently infected site in women. Disease caused by Chlamydia typically involves chronic inflammation and scarring. Recent work with a live-attenuated A2497 plasmid deficient vaccine strain (A2497-) demonstrated protection in nonhuman primates against trachoma and a lack of measurable ocular pathology in A2497- infected monkeys. We therefore performed host cell transcriptome analysis of Hela cells infected with A2497 plasmid-containing (A2497) and A2497- Chlamydia over time. Our results indicate that relative to wild type A2497, the A2497- variant illicits a transcriptome response indicative of lowered inflammation response a delayed apoptosis response, a reduction in immune cell recruitement cytokine expression and a reduction in genes involved in cell proliferation and or fibrosis-like activities. The data provided here suggests a model that may explain how plasmid deficient chlamydia may provide an immuno-protective response without the pathology normally seen with plasmid-containing bacteria.

Description
TIR-type nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat domain proteins (TNLs) constitute one major group of immune receptors in dicotyledonous plants. Under normal conditions, TNLs can detect non-self or modified-self within the plant cytoplasm to activate immune signaling characterized by extensive transcriptional reprogramming and efficiently counteracting pathogen infection. At the same time, TNLs, in negative epistatic interaction with a second endogeneous locus or allele are causal for induction of autoimmunity or hybrid necrosis. Both native, pathogen-induced TNL responses and autoimmunity are fully dependent on the plant-specific lipase-like protein EDS1, which is a central integrator for all TNL-mediated responses. EDS1 signals within structurally similar, but spatially distinct complexes with PAD4 and SAG101. We here analyzed stable transgenic lines expressing an EDS1 fusion with enforced nuclear localization. Even in absence of SAG101, nuclear-localized EDS1-PAD4 complexes are fully sufficient to function in basal and effector-triggered immunity. Furthermore, we show that nuclear EDS1, when expressed to high levels, can induce autoimmuity in combination with an RPP1-like gene cluster from ecotype Ler. RPP1-like genes are also implicated in several cases of hybrid necrosis, and we can identify the RPP1 paralog R8 as causal for autoimmunity induction by nuclear EDS1 and a previously characterized, EMS-induced mutation. This highlights the important role of EDS1-family proteins in the nuclear compartment in different immune-like responses.

Description
In acute myeloid leukemia, chemotherapy resistance remains prevalent and poorly understood. Using functional proteomics of patient AML specimens, we identified MEF2C S222 phosphorylation as a specific marker of primary chemoresistance. We found that transgenic Mef2cS222A/S222A mice engineered to block MEF2C phosphorylation exhibited normal hematopoiesis, but were resistant to leukemogenesis induced by MLL-AF9. MEF2C phosphorylation was required for leukemia stem cell maintenance, induced by MARK kinases in cells, and blocked by selective MARK inhibitor MRT199665, which caused apoptosis of MEF2C-activated human AML cell lines and primary patient specimens, but not those lacking MEF2C. These findings identify signaling-dependent dysregulation of transcription factor control as a determinant of therapy response in AML, with immediate potential for improved diagnosis and therapy for this disease. Overall design: RNA-sequencing of human leukemia cell line with induction of wildtype or mutant MEF2C.

Description
We report a highly-penetrant form of obesity, initially observed in 31 heterozygous carriers of a 593kb or larger deletion at 16p11.2 from amongst subjects ascertained for cognitive deficits. Nineteen similar deletions were identified from GWAS data in 16053 individuals from 8 European cohorts; such deletions was absent from healthy non-obese controls and accounted for 0.7% of our morbid obesity cases (p = 6.4x10-8, OR = 43). These findings highlight a promising strategy for identifying missing heritability in obesity and other complex traits, in which insights from rare extreme cases can be used to elucidate the basis for more common phenotypes.
