Genes regulated by T cell and B cell derived TNF in naive lymph nodes

ABSTRACT: We present a RNA microarray analysis of RNA`s extracted from naive mesenterial lymph nodes of mice with specific inactivation of tumor necrosis factor only in B cells (B-TNf mice) or in T- and B-cells (TB-TNF mice). Several genes are cooperatively regulated by T cell derived and B cell derived TNF Keywords: cell type comparison design For 1 independent sample 3 mice of one genotype have been sacrificed, mesenterial lymph nodes were isolated and pooled together. Lymph nodes were immediately frozen in luquid N2 and RNA was prepared using Tri-reagent. RNA was precipitated with isopropanol, washed with 70% ethanol and dissolved in DEPC dH2O.

Secondary lymphoid organs provide a unique microenvironment for generation of immune responses. Using a cell type-specific conditional knockout approach, we have dissected contributions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) produced by B cells (B-TNF) or T cells (T-TNF) to the genesis and homeostatic organization of secondary lymphoid organs. In spleen, lymph nodes and Peyer patches, the cellular source of TNF, and its molecular form (soluble versus membrane-bound) appeared distinct. In spleen, in addi ...[more]

Project description:The gold standard for examining pluripotency of stem cells is to see whether cells can contribute to entire body of animals. Here we show that the increased frequency of Zscan4 activation in mouse ES cells not only enhances, but also maintains their developmental potency in long-term cell culture. As the potency increases, even a whole animal can be produced from a single ES cell injected into 4N blastocyst at unusually high success rate. Although Zscan4-activated cells express genes that are also expressed in 2-cell stage mouse embryos, transiently Zscan4-activated state of ES cells is not associated with the high potency of ES cells. It is thus concluded that ES cells acquire higher potency by going through transient Zscan4 activation state more frequently than the regular state. Taken together, our results indicate that frequent activation of Zscan4 can rejuvenate pluripotent stem cells. MC1 ES cells (for pZscan4-Emerald transfection) and R26R6 ES cells (for pZscan4-Cre ERT2 transfection) were grown on gelatin in 6-well plate, 5x10^5cells in suspension were transfected with 1ug of linearized pZscan4-Emerald vector or pZscan4-Cre ERT2 vector using Effectene (QIAGEN) according manufacturer protocol, and plated in gelatin coated 100 mm dishes. Cells were selected with 5 ug/ml blasticidin, colonies were picked on the 8th day, expanded and frozen for further analysis. DNA microarray analysis of pZscan4-Emerald cells was carried out as described. In brief, universal Mouse Reference RNA (Stratagene) were labeled with Cy5-dye, mixed with Cy3-labeled samples, and used for hybridization on the NIA Mouse 44K Microarray v2.2 (manufactured by Agilent Technologies #014117). The intensity of each gene feature was extracted from scanned microarray images using Feature Extraction 9.5.1.1 software (Agilent Technologies). Microarray data analyses were carried out by using an application developed in-house to perform ANOVA and other analyses (NIA Array Analysis software; http://lgsun.grc.nia.nih.gov)

Project description:Specific neuronal types derived from embryonic stem cells (ESCs) can facilitate mechanistic studies and potentially aid in regenerative medicine. Existing induction methods, however, mostly rely on the effects of growth factors, which generally tend to result in mixed populations of neurons. Here we report that over-expression of specific transcription factors (TFs) in ESCs can rather guide the differentiation of ESCs towards specific neuron types. Analysis of published data on gene expression changes early (two days) after induction of each of 185 induced TFs implicated candidate TFs for further ESC differentiation studies. After induction for 6 days four of them (Ascl1, Smad7, Nr2f1, and Ascl2) generated a high proportion (>35%) of cells with neural progenitor marker PSA-NCAM and clear neural morphology on day 14. The capacity of these TFs to induce neural differentiation is inferred to be most likely linked to early activation of the Notch signaling pathway. Among the neuron-like cells, GABA-positive cells were most abundant (32-97% for 4 top TFs), whereas Isl1-positive cells and TH-positive cells were less abundant (<12% and <5%, respectively). Enrichment of cells obtained with the induction of Ascl1, Smad7, and Nr2f1 using beads with anti-PSA-NCAM antibody resulted in essentially pure population of neuron-like cells with expression profiles similar to neural tissues and highly expressed markers of GABAergic neurons. A time-course experiment with induction of Ascl1 showed early upregulation of most neural-specific and GABAergic-specific mRNA and miRNAs. We identified mRNA and miRNAs, whose expression depended on the induction of Ascl1, and showed that they were enriched in Ascl1 target genes. In summary, this study indicates that induction of transcription factors is a promising approach to generate candidate specific neural cell types from ESCs. Individual transcription factors (TFs) (Ascl1, Smad7, and Nr2f1) were induced in mouse ESCs to facilitate neural differentiation. Expression of transgenic TFs was repressed by doxycycline (Dox); thus, TFs were induced in Dox- conditions, whereas Dox+ conditions represent control cells with no expression of a transgene. For neural differentiation, cells were cultured 3 days in alpha-MEM medium and then in NeuroCult neural differentiation medium. Cells marked as PSANCAM+ were enriched by magnetic microbeads with anty-PSA-NCAM antibody (Miltenyi Biotec) on day 6 of culturing, whereas remaining cells are marked as PSANCAM-. Both PSANCAM+ and PSANCAM- cells were then cultured for another 8 days (total 14 days in differentiation). A time course experiment with Ascl1 induction did not include cell enrichment procedure. RNA was extracted with either Trizol (invitrogen) or mirVana kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
