AhR activation by TCDD in the ET, cortical epithelial cell line

ABSTRACT: Over activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) by TCDD results ampng other phenotypes in severe thymic atrophy accompanied by immunosuppression. The link between thymic atrophy, skewed thymocyte differntiation and immunosuppression is still not fully resolved. This study investigates the TCDD elicted exprssion changes in the ET, cortical thymus epithelial cell line. Keywords: TCDD, AhR, thymic epithelial cells, thymic involution, thymus atrophy ET cells were grown to 80-90% confluence and treated with 5nM TCDD or solvent control (1,4-Dioxane, 0,05%V). 2h,4h and 6h after treatment, RNA was isolated using TRIzol and gene expression measured. All experiments wer done in biological duplicates.

Promoter analysis of TCDD-inducible genes in a thymic epithelial cell line indicates the potential for cell-specific transcription factor crosstalk in the AhR response.

Activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR(1)) by 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) elicits severe immunosuppression accompanied by thymic atrophy. Previous evidence suggests that TCDD targets both thymocytes and thymic epithelial cells. The AhR induces cell-specific changes in gene transcription via binding to the dioxin response element DRE; however, the underlying specificity-mechanisms, in particular with regard to the role of promoter element context, and possible transcripti ...[more]

Ptf1a binding sites in a pancreatic cell line which mimics embryonic day E10.5 pancreas progenitors.

Project description:Pancreatic specific transcription factor1a (Ptf1a) immunoprecipitated chromatin from 266.6 cells produced 26 million tags with the Illumina high throughput sequencing technology. Many of the mapped tags were genes which were found to be differentially expressed at E10.5 in the microarray experiments comparing Ptf1a heterozygotes versus null mutant mice (study GSE26816). As Ptf1a is a bHLH transcription factor, it recognizes an E Box on the chromatin CANNTG. Since it belongs to a transcription factor complex, one of which recognizes the binding site TGGGAA, we also found this sequence one, two or three helical turns of DNA away from the E-box where peaks were detected. Ptf1a chromatin immunoprecipitation of cross-linked pancreatic cells, 266.6, to compare with the expressed genes in Ptf1a +/- vs -/- E10.5 pancreatic dorsal buds.

Role of AhR in thymocyte emigration in vivo

Project description:Over-activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor by TCDD in mice leads among other phenotypes to a severe thymic atrophy accompanied by immunosuppression. TCDD causes a block in thymocyte maturation and a preferential emigration of immature CD4-CD8- DN thymocytes (recent thymic emigrants) into the periphery. As part of this study gene expression profiles from DN thymocytes and thymic emigrants were generated from TCDD and solvent control mice Keywords: Affymetrix, TCDD, CD4-CD8- thymocytes, Thymus involution, thymic emigration, Ahr Female, 6-8 week old C57BL6 mice were i.p. injected with 10 M-BM-5g/kg TCDD. After 5 days mice were anesthezised and FITC injected into their thymi. after 24h mice were sacrificed and CD4-CD8-FITC+ cells isolated from thymus (thymocytes) and spleen (recent thymus emigrants).

AHR mediated gene expression changes in immature DN thymocytes and thymic emigrants

Project description:Effect of an immunosupressive dose of TCDD, a ligand for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor, on the gene expression profile of fetal DN thymocytes and thymic emigrants C57BL6 mice were mated and the pregnant dams sacrifice at day 15 of gestation. Fetal thymic lobes were prepared and cultured for 6 days on culture inserts (5-6 lobes/culture insert). Medium, containing either 10 nM TCDD or solvent control was exchanged every 48 hours. At day six (gestation day 21, corresponding to birth), single cell suspensions of the thymocytes were prepared and CD4-CD8- cells isolated by MACS sorting. Purity of the population was checked FACS analysis, to be greater 95%. RNA was purified (TRIZOL), amplified (Ambion Kit) and processed (Affymetrix standard protocol) according to manufacturers instructions. Raw cell files were processed with the bioconductor affy package

Effect of NF-kappaB activation in bone marrow stromal cells co-cultured with CLL cells

Project description:Tumor cell survival critically depends on heterotypic communication with benign cells in the microenvironment. Here we describe a novel survival signaling pathway activated in stromal cells by contact to B-cells from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. The expression of PKC-M-NM-2II and the subsequent activation of NF-M-NM-:B in bone marrow stromal cells is a prerequisite to support the survival of malignant B-cells. PKC-M-NM-2 knockout mice are insusceptible to CLL-transplantations, underscoring the in vivo significance of the PKC-M-NM-2II- NF-M-NM-:B signaling pathway in the tumor microenvironment. Upregulated stromal PKC-M-NM-2II in biopsies from CLL, breast- and pancreatic- cancer patients suggest that this pathway may commonly be activated in a variety of malignancies. We used microarrays to determine Nemo/ IKK-gamma dependent gene expression changes in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) induced by co-culturing with leukemic B-cells (CLL) We compared mouse BMSC cells from Nemo knockout cells (Nemo+CRE) and Nemo wild type cells (Nemo-CRE) co-cultured for 5 days with leukemic B-cells microarray analysis on Affymetrix MG-430_2.0 arrays..

Effect of an AhR-/- on transcription in CD4 T cells from the spleen.

Project description:CD4+ T cells from 8-12 week female mice were isolated from wt and AhR-/- mice 24h after injection of 10Âµg/kg TCDD or solvent control. Keywords: TCDD, AHR, immunosuppression Each experiment was performed in biological duplicates from 4 pooled animals. Since TCDD treatment showed only marginal impact on the gene expression (~10 transcripts effected in wt mice) wt - ko comparisons were performed on pooled profiles from TCDD and solvent mice.

A-type lamins bind both hetero- and euchromatin, the latter being regulated by lamina-associated polypeptide 2alpha [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Lamins are components of the peripheral nuclear lamina and interact with heterochromatic genomic regions, termed lamina-associated domains (LADs). In contrast to Lamin B11, lamin A/C also localizes throughout the nucleus, where it associates with the chromatin-binding protein lamina-associated polypeptide (LAP) 2alpha. Here we show lamin A/C also interacts with euchromatin, as determined by chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses of eu- and heterochromatin-enriched samples. By way of contrast, Lamin B11 was only found associated with heterochromatin. Euchromatic regions occupied by lamin A/C overlap with those bound by LAP2alpha, the depletion of which shifts binding of lamin A/C towards more heterochromatic regions. These alterations in lamin A/C chromatin interaction affect epigenetic histone marks in euchromatin without significantly affecting gene expression, while loss of lamin A/C in heterochromatic regions increased gene expression. Our data show a novel role of nucleoplasmic lamin A/C and LAP2alpha in regulating euchromatin. Examination of Lamin A/C, Lamin B1 and Lap2a DNA binding in Lap2alpha +/+ and Lap2a -/- cells and according changes in Histone modifications and gene expression
