Description
Coinhibitory receptor blockade is a promising strategy to boost immunity against a variety of human cancers. However, many patients still do not benefit from this treatment, and responders often experience immune-related toxicities. These issues highlight the need for improved understanding of checkpoint blockade, but the T cell-intrinsic signaling pathways and gene expression profiles engaged during treatment are not well defined, particularly for combination approaches. We utilized a murine model of CD8+ T cell tolerance to address these issues.

Checkpoint blockade immunotherapy relies on T-bet but not Eomes to induce effector function in tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells.

Description
Cohesin is crucial for proper chromosome segregation, but also regulates gene transcription and organism development by poorly understood mechanisms. We find that in Drosophila, cohesin functionally interacts with Polycomb group (PcG) silencing proteins at both silenced and active genes. Cohesin unexpectedly facilitates binding of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) to many active genes. In contrast, cohesin and PRC1 binding are mutually antagonistic at silenced genes. PRC1 depletion decreases phosphorylated RNA polymerase and mRNA at many active genes, but increases them at silenced genes. Cohesin also facilitates long-range interactions between Polycomb Response Elements in the invected-engrailed gene complex where it represses transcription. These multiple distinct cohesin-PcG interactions reveal a previously unrecognized role for PRC1 in facilitating productive gene transcription, and provide new insights into how cohesin and PRC1 control development.

Description
A frequently used experimental model of chronic pancreatitis (PC) recapitulating human disease is repeated injection of cerulein to mice. We found that two common substrains of C57BL/6 , C56BL/6J (Jackson) and C57BL/6NHsd (Harlan), exhibit different degree of CP with C57BL/6J beeing more susceptible to repetitive cerulein induced CP. The goal of this study was to identify genes associated with CP and also to identify genes differentially regulated between two substrains as candidates for the CP progression.
Publication Title
Differences in the degree of cerulein-induced chronic pancreatitis in C57BL/6 mouse substrains lead to new insights in identification of potential risk factors in the development of chronic pancreatitis.

Description
Pilocytic astrocytomas (PAs) are the most common glioma in children. While many PAs are slow growing or clinically indolent, others exhibit more aggressive features with tumor recurrence and death. In order to identify genetic signatures that might predict PA clinical behavior, we performed gene expression profiling on 41 primary PAs arising sporadically and in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). While no expression signature was found that could discriminate clinically-aggressive or recurrent tumors from more indolent cases, PAs arising in patients with NF1 did exhibit a unique gene expression pattern. In addition, we identified a gene expression signature that stratified PAs by location (supratentorial versus infratentorial).

Description
The purpose of this study was to determine whether there were differences in gene expression in the hippocampus, a part of the brain involved in memory consolidation, between male mice with age-related memory deficits (SAMP8 mice) and control mice with no age-related memory deficits. The senescence-accelerated mouse (SAMP8) strain exhibits decreased learning and memory and increased amyloid beta peptide (A) accumulation at 12 months compared to 4 months. To detect differences in gene expression in SAMP8 mice, we used a Control mouse that was a 50% cross between SAMP8 and CD-1 mice and which showed no memory deficits (50% SAMP8 mouse). We then compared gene expression in the hippocampus of 4 month and 12 month old SAMP8 and Control mice using Affymetrix gene arrays. At 12 months, but not at 4 months, pathway analysis revealed significant differences in the Long Term Potentiation (LTP) (6 genes), Phosphatidylinositol Signaling (6 genes), and Endocytosis (10 genes) pathways. The changes in LTP included MAPK signaling (N-ras, CREB binding protein, protein phosphatase inhibitor 1) and Ca-dependent signaling (PI receptors 1 and 2 and phospholipase C). Changes in phosphatidylinositol signaling genes suggested altered signaling through PI3-kinase, and Western blotting revealed phosphorylation changes in AKT and 70S6K. Changes in the Endocytosis pathway involved genes related to clathrin-mediated endocytosis (dynamin and clathrin). Endocytosis is required for receptor recycling, is involved in A metabolism, and is regulated by phosphatidylinositol signaling. In summary, these studies demonstrate altered genes expression in three SAMP8 hippocampal pathways associated with memory formation and consolidation. These pathways may provide new therapeutic targets in addition to targeting A metabolism itself.

Description
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of peripheral (IV) administration of APP antisense on hippocampal gene expression as well as on learning and memory as measured by T-maze in adult male mice aged 12 months. The APP antisense treatment reversed learning and memory deficits and altered the expression of 944 hippocampal genes, which are involved in a coordinated set of signaling pathways. Expression and pathway findings were verified at the protein and functional (phosphorylation) levels.
