Description
Purpose: Seek for differential gene expression in vemurafenib-resistant A375 tumors vs. untreated controls to provide a rationale for resistance mechanism Methods: mRNA profiles of vemurafenib-resistant A375 tumors and untreated control tumors were generated by transcriptome sequencing of A375 melanoma bearing mice. Since our xenograft samples contain a mixture of human and mouse RNAs we mapped RNASeq reads against a hybrid human/mouse genome. We than removed reads of potential mouse origin by taking only reads that map uniquely to human chromosomes. On average 23% of reads were removed as potential mouse reads. We than took the remaining reads (on average 77% per sample) to determine the gene expression levels for each sample. Normalized expression levels of 5 resistant samples were compared to 4 untreated control samples to detect differnetially regulated genes which may contribute to vemurfenib resistance Results: Expression levels of several genes were consistently altered in all resistant samples. Expression of e.g. genes encoding SPRY2, SPRY4, DUSP6, CCND1, PIK3R3, FGFR1, EPHA4, MCL1, and IGF1R was down-regulated, whereas expression of PDGFC, VEGFC, ABCB9 and KITLG was increased. Conclusions: Our study reports several differentially expressed genes which may contribute to vemurafenib resistance in A375 tumor bearing mice Overall design: RNA sequencing of genes expressed in A375 tumors bearing mice treated with vemurafenib until in vivo resistance appeared vs. untreated A375 tumors

Description
One of the most common genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia is the internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the FLT3 receptor for cytokine FLT3 ligand (FLT3L). The constitutively active FLT3-ITD promotes the expansion of transformed progenitors, but also has pleiotropic effects on normal hematopoiesis. We analyzed the effect of FLT3-ITD on dendritic cells (DCs), which express FLT3 and can be expanded by FLT3L administration. We report that young pre-leukemic mice with the Flt3ITD knock-in allele manifest an expansion of all DCs including classical (cDCs) and plasmacytoid (pDCs). The expansion originated in DC progenitors, occurred in a cell-intrinsic manner and was further enhanced in Flt3ITD/ITD mice. The mutation caused the downregulation of Flt3 on the surface of DCs and reduced their responsiveness to Flt3L. Flt3ITD mice showed enhanced capacity to support T cell proliferation, including a cell-extrinsic expansion of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Accordingly, these mice restricted alloreactive T cell responses during graft-versus-host reaction, but failed to control autoimmunity in the absence of Tregs. Thus, the FLT3-ITD mutation directly affects DC development, thereby indirectly modulating T cell homeostasis and supporting Treg expansion. This effect of FLT3-ITD may subvert immunosurveillance and promote leukemogenesis in a cell-extrinsic manner. Overall design: Sorted splenic dendritic cell subsets from either Flt3+/+ or Flt3ITD/+ mice were sequenced for mRNA profiling. For each subset per genotype contains 2-3 replicates, all from independent experiments.

Description
Extrahepatic bile ducts were isolated from mouse pups at days 0-3 and primary cholangiocytes were isolated. Cholangiocytes were treated with DMSO, bilatresone (TOX4), betavulgarin (TOX2), and isoflavanone (TOX3), as per Lorent et al, Science Translationa Medicine 2015;286:286ra67 (Fig. 1), all in DMSO. Treatment concentrations were 2.0 micrograms/ml, for 6 hours.

Description
Background: Tissue macrophages contribute to development and protection, both requiring appropriately timed and located source(s) of factors controlling growth, cell differentiation and migration. Goal: To understand the role of microglia (tissue macrophages of the central nervous system), in promoting neurodevelopment and controlling neuroinflammation. Summary of findings: We show that microglia fulfill both these roles. In contrast to adult cells, neonatal microglia show a unique neurogenic phenotype with stem cell-like potential. Neonatal microglia are protective against neuroinflammation, and their transplantation ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. A CD11c+ microglial subset predominates in primary myelinating areas of the developing brain and expresses genes for neuronal and glial survival, migration and differentiation. CD11c+ microglia are also found in clusters of repopulating microglia after experimental ablation and in neuroinflammation in adult mice, but despite some similarities, they do not recapitulate neurogenic neonatal microglia characteristics. Conclusions: We therefore identify a unique phenotype of neonatal microglia that deliver signals necessary for neurogenesis and myelination and suppress neuroinflammation. Overall design: The overall design was to compare transcriptomes of subsets of microglia isolated from neonatal mice, healthy adults, and adult mice with a neuroinflammatory disease (Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, EAE), and to compare anti-inflammatory function of adult and neonatal microglia. Microglia were isolated by cell-sorting based on surface phenotype, and RNAseq data was analyzed using WGCNA, GO and DAVID approaches. Expression of selected genes and pathways was confirmed by histology and flow cytometry. Functional analysis involved transfer of isolated microglia to the central nervous system of animals with EAE and evaluation of outcome. EAE = Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
